Seeing that Channing suddenly became serious, Stella also said in a serious tone, “Spill the beans. I’m
listening to it.”
“I signed a contract with a film company.”
Apparently, Stella hadn’t expected this. She was stunned for a while and then asked, “When did you
sign it?”
Channing replied, “Several days ago. Initially, I plan to tell you about this in the future, but…”
Stella fixed her eyes on him, “But you’re afraid that I will oppose to it, right?”
Channing didn’t reply because Stella’s words were right.
Stella chuckled and then patted his shoulder, “Rest assured. I won’t have any objection to it. No matter
what you plan to do, as long as it’s something you want to do, I will support you.”
She then continued, “Sherry once told me that she will be the chairman of you fans group if you
become a star.”
Stella suddenly thought of something and said, “By the way, Winnie also told me that she kept a secret
for you to me, but it would be better for you to tell me this by yourself. Was she mentioning this
matter?”
Channing nodded his head, “Probably.”
“Well. But I still have a condition.” Stella said in a serious tone, “No matter it be dating or be filming, you
can’t let it affect your study.”
“I know. I won’t.”
Stella rested assured when she heard the promise. Channing had been performing well in study since
childhood, so she didn’t need to worry about his study.
After Channing’s leaving, Stella got into the car and then made a phone call to Nathan, asking him to
find out which hospital Phoebe was in. When she got the address from Nathan, she directly drove to
the hospital.
In the hospital…
The doctor bandaged the wound for Phoebe and then warned her, “Don’t touch the water in the next
few days. Come here to change your medicine two days later.”
Phoebe knitted her brows and stood up impatiently, “I see.”
She walked out of the doctor’s office with her hand lifted. But just as she had taken several steps, she
saw Stella who was not far away from her.
Phoebe sneered, “Are you here to see by yourself whether I was really injured or not?”
Stella replied in a bland tone, “Ms. Steward, you’re also clear that when you want to act, you have to
make it real to convince others. Therefore, you did such a cruel thing to yourself.”
When Phoebe prepared to say something, Stella continued, “I should buy some firecrackers to
celebrate it.”
Phoebe gritted her teeth, “Do you think that you can win me by this means. Stella Radomil, sometimes
I really appreciate you. In the past, Clarence detested you a lot that he evened asked you to abort your
child. But now you fall in love with him again. Won’t you feel it disgusting?”
Stella didn’t change her expression and said, “I also want to ask you, Ms. Steward. Apparently you look
down upon me, but you still pretend to be kind to me, won’t you feel it disgusting?”
Before Phoebe could reply, Stella continued, “Ms. Steward, you always say that if it was not because of
me, you would have married Clarence. Therefore, you take me as your enemy from the very beginning.
But if my guess is right, Ms. Steward, you look down on Clarence deep in your heart, right? You think
that he’s an illegitimate child and that he doesn’t deserve a legitimate daughter from a noble family like
you.”
Phoebe’s expression changed. She pressed her lips together and didn’t reply.
“But Ms. Steward, do you think everything you possess now is legal?”
“What do you mean?”
Stella said with a smile, “Nothing. I have to leave first as I have to deal with something. Ms. Steward,
have a good rest.”
Phoebe watched her back with an indifferent expression.
When Stella walked out of the hospital and prepared to leave, she accidently bumped into a person.
Justin looked towards her with a gentle smile, “Stella, long time no see.”
Stella greeted him, “Mr. Conrad.”
“Why do you come to the hospital? Do you feel uncomfortable.”
“Nope. I… I come here to deal with something.” Stella paused and then asked, “Are you sick?”
Justin put his hands on his knees, lowered his head to take a glance and then replied, “Not a big deal.
It’s an old illness. Although I can’t stand up now, it would still feel painful twice or three times in a year.”
Justin then looked up at her, “If you’re not busy now, maybe we can find a place and take a seat.”
Stella slightly nodded her head, “Okay.”
Sitting in a café, Justin asked, “How are you recently?”
Stella curled her lips into a light smile, “Nothing special. It’s almost the same like the past.”
Justin took a sip of the coffee, “I heard that you fall in love with Clarence again.”
“Yes.”
Justin smiled, “That’s good. I know Clarence well. He’s sharp-toned in speech yet soft in heart. He has
been into you long time ago.”
After Justin came to apologize to her after the car accident, they hadn’t seen each other for a long time.
Stella had complicated attitude towards Justin. On the one hand, Justin was once good to her and few
people had shown kindness to her; on the other hand, his mother was the person who plotted against
her and caused her to lose her child.
After a long while, Justin continued, “I’ve also heard some of the stories between you and the Steward
family. What’s your plan at present? Do you need my help?”
Stella shook her head when she heard the words, “No need. I’ve decided to move out of the Stewards’
Mansion.”
Justin seemed to be a bit surprised, “Why?”
“Maybe it’s because no one in the Steward family welcome me. So I don’t plan to stay there. Moreover,
I came to the Steward family for the sake of money. Now that I’ve gotten the thing I want, it’s almost
time for me to leave.”
“Stella, you’re not that kind of people.”
Stella chuckled, “Maybe it’s just because I’m good at pretending. In the past when I was poor, I didn’t
dare to dream of anything. But now, since I’ve tasted the pleasure of being rich, I learn about the
importance of money. You can’t do anything without money.”
After a short while, Stella’s phone rang. It was a call from Clarence.
She took a glance and then said to Justin, “I have to go to my studio to deal with something. I have to
leave now.”
Justin nodded his head, “Goodbye.”
Stella curled her lips into a light smile, stood up and left.
When she walked out of the café, her phone stopped ringing.
Stella walked towards her car while calling back Clarence.
When the call was received, Clarence’s voice sounded, “Are you still in the hospital?”
“I just walked out of it and prepare to come back to my studio. What’s the matter?”
Clarence said slowly, “Is your problem solved?”
Stella replied, “Barely. It can only be like this.”
“Then shall I come to pick you up?”
Stella, “…”
No wonder.
No wonder that this wretched man suddenly called her.
Stella got into the car and said, “Come tomorrow morning. I have to package up my things after coming
back tonight.”
Clarence agreed to it right away, “Okay.”
Stella curled her lips into a light smile. After a short while of silence, she said, “I… I bumped into you’re
your brother just now.”
“Justin Conrad?”
“Yep. It seemed like he had something wrong with his legs and he came to the hospital for a check-up.”
Clarence frowned, “What did he say to you?”
Stella heaved a sigh, “Nothing. It was just a small talk.”
