The Apology from My Ex and His Mistress novel Chapter 163

Back then, taking that risk was just being young and reckless when I think about it now.

He wasn’t that kid who only knew how to mess around and had a bit of a mean streak anymore. He had already become the head of a big corporation. She didn’t need to offend someone so powerful she couldn’t handle.

Estrella squinted her eyes a bit and looked at Stephanie, saying, “So, you’re choosing not to go with the Shelton Group?”

Stephanie took a step forward, and the distance between them got even closer.

“Threaten me?” Stephanie looked coldly at Estrella.

“Hasn’t it already been a threat for a long time?” Estrella sneered.

Stephanie squinted her eyes a bit, “I thought we were discussing.”

“Heh…” Estrella laughed mockingly, and she said, “Stephanie, you’re a woman who depended on the Humphrey family to survive. What right did you have to discuss anything with me?”

Estrella said this and shook her phone. There was a message from Roxanne on it.

She pointed at the side door again.

Over there stood Maxwell, who didn’t know who he was talking to.

It was Roxanne.

Even if she wore regular clothes, you could still tell it was her.

Stephanie sneered inwardly. Maxwell, who had just acted tough and refused to take Roxanne’s call in front of her, now actually brought her

Over

“Stephanie, Max didn’t love you anymore a long time ago,” Estrella said. “Your good days in the Humphrey family were almost over, too.”

“Did you want to wait until Roxanne died, and then keep pretending nothing happened and go on being your Mrs. Humphrey?”

“I told you, impossible.”

Estrella’s voice came, but Stephanie didn’t look away. She saw Maxwell walk up to Roxanne and look down to check something on Roxanne’s side.

Under the dim light, they were really close.

“Could you see it clearly enough?”

Estrella said, “I worked with Roxanne, I wanted to win over the old team from the Shelton Group who stayed at the Humphrey Group, piece of cake.”

Stephanie looked away and saw the smile on Estrella’s face. Estrella said, “Besides, the Shelton Group’s glory days were when Elliot was still around. Now, it’s nothing.”

Estrella shook the glass in her hand, “Let’s bet on this Steph drink, see it? Over there, among all those glasses, I bet you can’t find this one.”

Stephanie looked at Estrella.

Suddenly felt a bit sad.

“You’re not the Estrella I knew,” Stephanie said.

That proud and dignified Ms. Humphrey wasn’t the kind of person who used dirty tricks to force others.

What exactly happened over these years that made her change so much?

“What, not daring to bet?” On the other side, Estrella looked tough but was actually nervous.

But Stephanie just laughed.
