After Logan left, Stella continued reading the information in front of her.
What she had guessed was correct. These senior executives were people who had had actual
achievements in the Steward Group but these people were pushed out to act as a shield at that time. In
order to cover up, the information that Logan gave her was very little in which there were only the
names and their respective position in the company as well as the project that they had ever handled.
Stella also asked Nathan to help her investigate. The evaluation of these people in the industry had no
problem.
Stella looked at the clock and found that it was already quite late.
There was no specific contact information on this so it was quite difficult for her to find these people.
After a while, Stella seemed to have thought of something. She sent a message to Clarence, saying
that she would be back slightly later.
After the message was sent, Stella did not wait for his reply and walked out while making a phone call.
Sherry saw this and said, “Stella, are you going home or somewhere else.”
Stella put down the phone, “I’m going to find Madison but she doesn’t answer the call. Do you know
where can I find her.”
Sherry said, “Why are you looking for her.”
“I remember that her husband was a senior executive of the Steward Group and was one of those who
were once pulled out to act as a shield.
Sherry thought about it, “I’m not sure. She was the most active person in the class group before and
she showed off every day what her husband gave her. But since her husband encountered such a
problem, there has been no news of her for a long time.”
After pausing for a while, Sherry added, “Hold on, let me ask the class monitor. I heard that Madison
borrowed money from her before so she might know.”
Stella nodded, “Okay.”
Not long after, Sherry got a reply.
Since the incident that time, Madison’s family spent a lot of money to handle the connections and
barely solved this matter.
But after doing so, the house and car of her family were sold and she borrowed a lot of money.
Because of acting as a shield for the Steward Group, her husband’s reputation in the industry was
ruined. No company dared to employ him. But because he had a child, in order to live, he could only
work as a hotel lobby security.
And Madison who had been a housewife for many years was forced to come out to work. Now, she
was working as a salesperson in a luxury store.
After getting the address, Sherry sent it to Stella, “Are you really just going like this, do you need me to
go with you.”
Stella smiled, “I’m not going to fight, I can go by myself.”
As she said, she added, “Aren’t you going to watch a movie, why haven’t you gone yet?”
“He had to handle some matters suddenly. He said that he needed to take some time. I’m waiting for
him at the studio, you go and do your thing first.”
“Alright, I’ll go first then.”
Sitting in the car, Stella set the address that Sherry sent to her on the GPS. She looked at the distance
and as there was a traffic jam at this time, she had to drive about forty minutes.
At this time, Clarence’s phone call came in.
Stella turned on the speaker and answered the call. While looking at the rear-view mirror and driving,
she asked, “Are you done with your work.”
Clarence’s voice had a hint of tiredness, “I just finished a meeting, where are you going.”
“I’m going to find my classmate. Her husband was an employee of the Steward Group before.”
Clarence hesitated on the other end of the phone and said, “The one who was drunk before?”
Stella said, “Yes, it’s her.”
“When will you be back.”
“I just set off. It will take me forty minutes to go there and I don’t even know if I can find her. I guess it
will be quite late,” Stella said, “You hit the sack first after going back, don’t worry about me.”
Clarence was speechless.
He pinched his nose, “Do you think I can fall asleep? Send me the address, I’ll go to find you.”
Stella said, “No need, what for you come here. Go back and rest, I’ll call you when I’m done.”
Clarence kept silent for a while and said, “Did anyone go to you today.”
“Yes.” Stella’s lips slightly were slightly pursed, “Let’s talk about it after I go back. I’m driving.”
Clarence gave an ‘um’ and said, “Send me the address. I won’t go there, I just want to know where you
are.”
Stella did not say a word for a moment and seemed to be thinking about the truth of his words.
Clarence said faintly, “Not only this time, in the future, whenever you go out alone at night and
wherever you go, you have to send me the address. Otherwise, I’ll be worried.”
Hearing the last few words, Stella’s lips could not help but curl. She cleared her throat and said
seriously, “Got it, I’ll send it to you later.”
“Be careful and drive safely.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, it happened that the traffic light was red.
Stella stopped the car and sent the address over.
After it changed to the green light, she continued driving forward.
When Stella arrived at the entrance of the store, she found a parking place nearby and then got out of
the car.
As soon as Stella entered the door, she heard the laughter of two women.
“Eh, come on, didn’t you always say that your husband is the senior executive of a big company. Didn’t
he give you any money, how come you’re reduced to do this today.”
“Why don’t you wear those jewellery that you usually wear and show off, is it because it isn’t worthy of
your identity.”
“I guess it’s either a picture taken from the Internet or it’s the fake one so you’re embarrassed to wear it
when coming out.”
“It’s true that people should be practical. Just own whatever that you can own, don’t always think of
bragging and showing off. If it’s exposed by someone one day, how embarrassing will it be.”
The person opposite them was Madison whose face turned pale.
Except for those who were serving customers, several other employees in the store gathered together
to watch the show while whispering.
Madison seemed to be angered very much. His lips vibrated, “I didn’t brag, those are true…”
“If it’s true, why don’t you stay at home to be the woman of quality, what for you come out to work.”
“She’s really thick-skinned. We’ve seen it but she surprisingly still wants to argue.”
“It seems that she isn’t going to stop until something bad happens. Is it that you’ll only admit it after we
reveal your true colours on the WeChat Moment.
“Exactly, she even bragged that her husband is a senior executive of a big company. I heard someone
say last time that he is just a security guard of a small hotel.”
“My God, she has bragged too exaggeratedly.”
Hearing their taunts that came one after another, Madison had an unprecedented embarrassment. Her
face turned pale and even turned green.
Stella walked over and spoke indifferently, “Do you have time now, I want to talk to you.”
When these words were uttered, everyone looked at her.
A store clerk froze and then spoke softly, “Isn’t she the designer, she’s quite famous.”
“I remember her, isn’t she the wife of the president of the Conrad Group!”
In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire store changed.
The people who mocked Madison just now were now looking left and right, not knowing what to say at
all.
Compared to the two of them, when Madison saw Stella, she felt even more embarrassed than just
now, “What’s the matter.”
“I want your husband’s contact information. If he is willing, he can go back to the Steward Group
anytime.”
