The night before she left for Paris, Stella was packing her things, and she saw the two diamond rings
when she was looking for jewelry.
One was the proposed ring. The other belonged to her mother and was later auctioned by Clarence
from Justin.
She had worn them every day before, but she was too busy and was quite afraid of losing them, so she
put them away again.
After thinking about it, Stella chose the proposed ring and put it on her ring finger.
Sherry went with her this time, and Daniel rightly followed.
Although Sherry sometimes complained that Daniel was too clingy, the smile on her face was getting
sweeter and happier.
Stella did not want to be the third wheel on the plane and chose to sit separately from them.
She flipped through the magazines and found out that Starry Sky's participation in Fashion Week had
been published in a foreign jewelry weekly.
Stella exhaled slowly and looked out.
After preparing for so long, it would be a lie to say that she wasn't nervous.
Even though Starry Sky had already achieved great success domestically, people around her had told
her that their brand would shine in this fashion week. She still felt unreal.
She had been studying an irrelevant major at university. Under her family's situation at that time, the
money she earned from her part-time job was barely enough for her and Chan to pay their tuition fees.
Therefore, she did not dare to hope to major in the high-cost profession of jewelry design.
Her most significant interest was scribbling and drawing some messy things on the book during her
rare rest time.
Later, the book was seen by Horace Jason, who said she was talented and encouraged her to enter a
designer competition. She would receive a full grant from the organizers to study in Paris if she won
first place.
It would also allow her to get rid of Jeffrey and start a new life.
Stella was motivated.
She had spent a long time and watched many videos to prepare for the jewelry competition.
Still, the result, however, seemed like it was predetermined.
To her, jewelry design was a dream that was once within her reach. Still, she could only watch it go
away eventually.
She would never have imagined that she would be able to stand on the catwalk at Paris Fashion Week
and present her brand and creations to the world one day.
It was late at night in Paris when the plane landed.
There was a chilly drizzle.
Just as Stella was about to contact the person Louis arranged, she heard a low male voice. "Beautiful
lady, are you looking for someone?"
Stella subconsciously replied, "Yes I..."
She turned her head but met with the man's dark smiling eyes.
Stella showed a smile instantly. "When did you arrive?"
Clarence propped the umbrella above her head and looked down at his wristwatch, "Half an hour
earlier than you."
Another young man approached them. "Are you Ms. Radomil? Louis asked me to pick you up."
Stella nodded gently, and after answering, she turned her head to Sherry and Daniel. "Let's go."
When they arrived at the hotel, Clarence stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking out at the
rain, and spoke slowly, "I remember I told you that I have a house in Paris."
Stella drank the water. "It's not proper to refuse him, and here is close to where the Fashion Week is
held, so it's more convenient."
Clarence turned around, and his eyes fell on her fingers. A smile appeared.
Noticing his gaze, Stella coughed and put down her glass. "I will meet with Louis to discuss the process
and decide on the models in the next few days. What about you?"
Clarence sat on the sofa. "I'll be with you."
Stella refused without hesitation. "No."
He raised his eyes to look at her as if to ask the reason.
"We are there to discuss the work. Everyone will be unease if you are there, and ..."
He pulled her into his arms, "And what?"
Stella gave him an apt smile. "I don't want to receive some lines like someone wants to share you with
me."
Clarence was speechless.
Two months ago, rumors that their marriage was broken abounded, saying that he dated a young
model late at night and his tastes never changed.
They both ignored such news. However, the model thought she had a chance to hook up with Clarence
since he didn't clarify.
Therefore, she went to Stella's studio, saying she didn't mind sharing Clarence with Stella.
Coincidentally, Clarence happened to be there at that time.
The consequences were apparent.
Clarence said in a low voice, "I was innocent. I didn't know she would enter the hotel simultaneously as
me, and we would be photographed."
"Anyway, don't accompany me this time. Otherwise, someone will retake pictures of you and spread
them deliberately, solidifying the charge that you prefer young models."
Clarence was at a loss for words.
"Daniel was free. If you're bored, stay with him."
"Then I might as well solidify on my charge."
Stella kept silent.
Clarence continued, "What's the point of two big men staying together?"
Stella admitted that he was right.
However, it was too dull for him to stay here these days.
Clarence knew what she was thinking and put his arm around her waist, "Don't worry. I have other
things to do."
Stella was about to ask him what it was, but she gave up asking when she thought that Conrad Group
also had a branch in Paris.
Over the next few days, Stella and Sherry both left early and returned late. Clarence was indeed as
busy as he said he was, even more engaged than her, sometimes was back in the middle of the night.
"Is there something wrong with the company here?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"Or is it that you go to solidify on your charge? "
Clarence didn't answer it.
He rolled over and pressed the person directly onto the bed with his eyes narrowed. "I'll do it now."
Stella reached out to push him, smiling and speaking, "Okay, I'm just kidding. Stop it and go to bed
early. I have to get up early tomorrow."
"When does Fashion Week start?"
"The day after tomorrow. Two days in total., We can go back when it's over."
She missed her three children too much.
Clarence smiled slightly and said nothing more.
