"Stellar!"The first face that flashed through Percy’s mind was hers, and the mere thought of her name made him grit his teeth in anger.But soon, the hazy memories from last night started coming back.Towards the end… it wasn’t Stellar who took him away.It was Yvonne.And yet, she actually dumped him on the side of the road and left him there?At that moment, his disgust for Yvonne deepened even further.Furious, he stormed away from the scene.…Meanwhile, on the other side of town.Stellar spent her entire day at the research institute, buried in her latest experiment.For once, no one had caused trouble for her, and she enjoyed a rare, peaceful day.Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang."Babe, I finally wrapped things up on my end. How about a dinner date?"Suzy’s lazy, sultry voice carried an irresistible charm.Stellar couldn’t help but smile, her tone softer than usual."Sure! Where are we meeting?"Suzy rattled off an address.Stellar paused for a second but agreed w

Stephen thought for a moment before saying, "I’ll also have a mushroom soup."Noticing there wasn’t a soup dish on the table, he figured it would balance the meal.Even Lily looked surprised this time."You two really have similar tastes! Miss Rivers actually ordered that earlier—it hasn’t even arrived yet. What are the odds?"Her words made Stellar feel a little awkward. She quickly shoved the menu into Lily’s hands."Madam Bailey, I’m starving. Hurry up and get the food going!"Lily chuckled knowingly but didn’t say anything more as she walked off, leaving Stellar and Stephen sitting across from each other in an unexpectedly quiet moment.The atmosphere between them turned… oddly subtle.Suzy, on the other hand, was thoroughly entertained.She cleared her throat dramatically before grinning."You know, they say that if you want to test compatibility in a relationship, just see if two people can enjoy the same meals. By that standard, you two are practically a match made in heaven!"

"Is this how the rich trample over ordinary people? Picking fights, assaulting the elderly, and passing out drunk in public—no dignity, no class, no morals. Absolute scum of society. A disgrace. Companies like his shouldn’t even be allowed to go public!""Blacklist him! I can’t even stand to look at this mess anymore."Scrolling down, the next trending headline was even worse—Moore Enterprises’ stock had plummeted."Look at the disaster you’ve caused!" William seethed, his face red with fury as he slammed his hand against the desk. "You’ve ignited public outrage! While I’ve been working around the clock to clean up your mess, you have the nerve to talk about calling off the engagement?!"His voice thundered through the office, his rage barely contained."Do you see it now? If you don’t go through with the Harlow engagement, our entire family is finished!“Effective immediately, we’re announcing the engagement party. I’ve already instructed PR to start damage control, and you—" His e

Stellar finished her dinner, and after exchanging a brief farewell with them, Stephen left early. When Stellar was about to pay the bill, she found out that he had already took care of it in advance. "Your senior might seem cold at first, but he’s got a warm side. He’s actually pretty nice," Suzy remarked, unable to resist commenting.At the very least, he was a thousand times better than Percy, that arrogant snob who looked down on people. "Don't say things like that next time. He has a girlfriend," Stellar turned back, giving her a slightly embarrassed glare while reminding her not to speak carelessly. "Oh, really? He doesn’t seem like the type who would date or know how to make a girl happy!" Suzy started to say, but then quickly contradicted herself. "Wait, no, even someone like Percy, who pretends to be all high and mighty, managed to fool a stunning beauty like you into giving your all for him. So, a guy like this? Way easier."Forget it. Men are all the same. We’re bett

Brian was caught off guard, his face turning ashen as he scurried away like a defeated rat.Once he was gone, Xavier finally lifted his head and looked at Stellar and Suzy."Sorry… and thank you. I didn’t mean to cause trouble for you."In truth, he hadn’t wanted Stellar to see him in such an embarrassing state, covered in coffee. It only made him feel more humiliated.Leaving Percy was a decision he had contemplated for a long time, and it had nothing to do with Stellar. But after hearing about her breakup with Percy, he wanted to help her and even considered pursuing her. He thought they were alike.But now, he heard that Stellar had successfully been admitted to the research institute. She had moved on from Percy and was doing better and better. Meanwhile, he remained nothing more than an ordinary man.The gap between them was insurmountable.He no longer had the courage to confess his feelings.Yet Stellar had no idea what was on his mind. Instead, she spoke candidly."You do
