Chapter 958: No Happiness in a Forced Relationship

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

A few days later, the new studio officially started.

The brand “Starry Sky Studio” had already accumulated a certain group of fans. And the studio was set

at a business center, so the studio has attracted a lot of new customers.

Because there was an event for the opening today, online orders have also surged besides the

customers who come here offline.

The whole studio was in a busy atmosphere.

As the spokesperson of “Starry Sky Studio”, Winnie Truman should have been there in person. But due

to the enclosed filming of the crew and she could not ask for leave, she could only send over some

flower baskets.

Standing in the office on the second floor, Sherry looked at the long rows of flower baskets outside the

store, and said in a low voice, “These flower baskets may be ten times more than when our studio was

founded.”

Stella smiled. Some of these flower baskets were sent by friends and some were sent by previous

customers.

If she hadn’t told Clarence in advance that this was just a symbol, the flower baskets could even be

lined up outside the street.

Stella said, “Let’s go down there and take a look.”

Sherry was a little worried, “Your dear Mr. Conrad specifically told me that you are not allowed to go to

crowded places. What would happen if you fall over.”

Now Stella’s pregnancy was getting more obvious day by day. Besides Clarence is getting more and

more careful, everyone around her are getting even more.

Stella said, “I am not that fragile. When I went to the maternity checkup yesterday, the doctor said that

the little guy in my belly is healthy. It’s not that you don’t know about Clarence. Don’t take his word

seriously.”

That being said, Sherry still followed her closely when she came downstairs, lest someone accidentally

bump into her.

At this time, a voice sounded, “Hello, Ms. Radomil, Ms. Perry.”

Stella turned around and smiled, “Daphne.”

Daphne said, “I heard that your studio opened up today. Damn, your customer flow is so good that I

almost couldn’t get in.”

Sherry nodded in agreement, “It’s really crowded. Let’s go outside to talk.”

When they got outside the studio, it was a lot quieter in an instant.

Stella said to Daphne, “I’ve been busy with the studio these days, and I didn’t have time to ask you. Are

you still okay on that day? Did you get hurt?”

Daphne shook his head, “It’s okay. Fortunately, Mr. Shawn showed up in time and save me. But he was

seriously injured...”

“Nothing matters as long as you’re okay.” After a pause, Stella suddenly thought of something and

asked, “Are you living with Donald now?”

Daphne said, “Yes, Mr. Shawn said Harris hasn’t been captured yet. It’s not safe for me to stay alone.

And he asked me stay with him for a while.”

Hearing this, Stella was stunned, and she couldn’t help but look at Sherry.

Daphne didn’t notice anything and continued, “Ms. Radomil, I’ve been thinking lately that should we set

up a plan to lead him out? You guys don’t have to worry about me. I really can handle this. I can protect

myself.”

Stella was silent for a while before saying, “Why don’t I go back and discuss it with Clarence? I will then

tell you our plan?”

Daphne nodded seriously, “Okay, looking forward to Ms. Radomil’s plans!”

After she finished speaking, she got up and said, “I still have my job to do, so I’ll go first. Goodbye, Ms.

Radomil, Ms. Perry.”

Sherry waved to her, “Goodbye...”

When she went far away, Sherry tutted, “What the hell is Donald doing? How could he lie to a girl like

that!”

Stella raised her eyebrows, “He may come over in the afternoon. We can ask him”

Sure enough, speak of the devil… And Donald came over that afternoon.

When Donald came to see the half of what he had struggle for, he was scrutinized by two eyes.

Donald didn't understand.

Stella spoke first, “Daphne just came.”

Donald was so smart that he knew what Stella meant in an instant. He coughed, “I was saying that...for

her safety. If there is a Harris who tried to hurt her, there may also be someone else, right? Now

Justin’s people hasn’t been all cleaned up yet.”

Stella looked at him silently. As if she was saying “Nobody believe your bullshit.”

Sherry said, “Mr. Shawn, what’s in your mind exactly? If you don’t love her, then you can’t bother her.”

“How can you say that, you don’t know about our past. Well, I have the responsibility to protect her, and

I can’t leave her alone...”

He was probably not really confident. Donald’s voice was getting lower and lower.

Stella said, “Speaking of this, I just want to ask. What happened between you before?”

Sherry also nodded her head trying to get some gossip, “I want to hear it too.”

Donald simply recounted the what happened between Daphne and him back then.

Both Sherry and Stella sighed for a while. Stella was silent for a few seconds, “I thought you could only

drink and be your playboy. I didn’t expect that you would have such a justice move.”

“Please, don’t be so narrow-minded. At least I am a lawyer who has passed the judicial examination.

These are basically what a lawyer should do. It’s nothing I should be proud of.”

Sherry couldn’t help but said, “Well, has she had a crush on you since then?”

Speaking of this, Donald’s expression turned serious, “I don’t know.”

If only things were that simple.

Intuition told him that Daphne was just grateful for him as a savior. There may be a trace of admiration

and admiration for him.

But these things, all of these couldn’t be considered as “love” or crash on him.

Stella said, “Okay, but the arrest of Harris will be made public by the police. You still have two days if

you are lucky. Don’t hide it from Daphne.”

Sherry continued to echo, “Yeah, it’s been a few days. You can let her go if there’s no progress. There’s

no true happiness in a fake or forced relationship.”

As soon as Donald thought about that Daphne was going to move out, he was inexplicably agitated.

And his voice was a little dull, “I see, I’ll tell her at night.”

Stella got up and said, “Well, as long as you can handle it yourself.”

Donald pursed his lips and said nothing.

After leaving the studio, Donald sat in the car and took out the pen cap pendant. He was lost in his

mind while staring at the pen cap

After a while, he took out his phone, dialed Vincent’s number, and said lazily, “Come out for a drink.”

“In the afternoon? Are you alright?”

“Who said that we can’t drink in the afternoon?”

Vincent said, “I don’t have time.”

Donald was puzzled, “Since Harris has been captured, what are you busy with? There’s nothing you

can do...”

Vincent didn’t bother to pay attention to his word, “Justin’s body hasn’t been found yet. And the Conrad

family is also in a mess. You can now tell me why I am busy...”

Donald was silent for two seconds, “How long has it been? Can you find someone that hasn’t been

found for so many days this afternoon? Or can you handle all these stuff in an afternoon?”

Vincent was annoyed, “Where?”

Donald said immediately, “The place we usually go.”

Hanging up, Donald put the pen cap back into his suit pocket and drove away.
