Justin watched her actions thoughtfully but said nothing. He told her to sit down across the
desk.
“You came to see me. I assume you have some business?”
Stella nodded. “I wanted to ask about Robb‘s offer to study abroad.”
Justin could probably tell her intentions.
He wanted to cut to the chase, but after thinking about it, he decided to explain.
“Sorry about earlier. Tina and I have a little disagreement. She has no problem with you. She‘s just
unhappy with me.” Stella was actually a little curious about Justin‘s matters with Tina. She asked politely,
“Mr. Hall, why are you guys always so tense? When you divorced, didn‘t you separate peacefully?” Justin
understood her implication and laughed at himself mockingly. “Actually, it wasn’t that bad. It was a
peaceful breakup. There were no major conflicts or cheating...” The two were still making efforts to keep
the family steady even the day before the divorce. “Then why did you get divorced anyway?” Justin could
not explain clearly. “Perhaps we just didn‘t see the need to stay together anymore. So, we divorced.
However, we didn‘t announce it immediately because of my son.” After a long time, Bryce finally
discovered it. He threw a tantrum and almost ran away from home.
After they got Bryce back, they agreed on how they wanted to raise their son after the divorce. From that
point on, Justin and Tina realized that they were almost like strangers.
Their divorce was a peaceful negotiation, but as time went on their resentment for each other grew. It
grew to the point where the mere sight of each other would make them fight.
“Forget it. Let‘s not talk about me. What‘s the reason you came today?” “I wanted to ask about Robb.”
Justin pulled out a file. “About his offer to study abroad, right? I‘ve spoken to him.” “Is that so?” Stella‘s
eyes lit up. “What did he say?”
Justin‘s tone was a little heavy. “I intended to talk to you about this. To be frank, this offer to study abroad
is very beneficial to him. With his qualification, he‘ll have a good prospect if he can go abroad to further
study. There‘s still a certain gap between the research level domestically and abroad. If he can learn
foreign advanced technology and then come back to contribute to the country, I trust he‘ll have a good
future. But...”
He frowned. “He refused me decisively without even saying anything. I was going to discuss this with
you.”
Stella paused for a moment. “Don‘t worry. I‘ll talk to him about this. I‘m here mainly to make sure...”
Soon, it was evening. Justin got up from his seat. “I happened to be free. Why don‘t we have dinner
together?” Stella was about to refuse, but Justin added, “You can ask Robb to join us. We can have
dinner in the cafeteria and talk about it.”
Stella could not refuse since he said that, so she called Roger.
Roger thought Stella paid him a special trip, but he saw Justin was there too. His face sank. “Sis, Mr.
Hall...” Justin noticed that he greeted Stella first and did not comment about it. He told him to sit across
from him. “You should know what your sister and I want to talk about, right?”
“This is our own business. Mr. Hall, I hope you can give me the space to make my own choices. I don‘t
want outsiders to interfere...” Roger made his position clear before he even sat down. Stella‘s face
turned gloomy. “Have you ever wanted to discuss this matter with me? Why did you refuse? Studying
abroad is a great opportunity for you.” “I already said I don‘t want to leave...” “You‘re an adult.” Justin
could not help but say, “It‘s your future. I hope you can talk to Ella about it.”
The two of them seemed to be preaching. This provoked Roger and made him rebellious. He stood up
abruptly. “I know you‘re here to convince me, but I‘ve already decided. It‘s useless for you to say
anything!”
anything!”
