Andrew was still shouting after him. “How dare you talk to me like that? Stop right there.”

Anna quickly tried to calm him down. “Dad, maybe Max is just brainwashed. Who knows? Stella is probably laughing at us right now. We can’t lose our composure.”

Andrew snapped out of it and looked at Anna. “You’re right.”

Stella thought Max was only joking. She didn’t expect

Stella never thought it was a bad thing. They distance.

were all

people, but in the past, Max didn’t like being around them and would always keep his

She even heard he really started working.

Nola said, “He still doesn’t look fully recovered, and work seems tough for him, but he’s willing to do anything. Looks like he really knows he was wrong

Stella said, “Good. As long as he doesn’t mess up our work, let him do what he wants.” She knew Nola wasn’t sticking up for Max, but for her.

After all, seeing Stella like this weighed heavily on Nola’s heart.

Stella glanced at Nola. “I know what you’re thinking. Get back to work.”

Nola nodded.

When Stella went downstairs, she did see Max. He was a rich kid who wouldn’t do all the work alone, but his colleagues helped out, and he was seriously learning.

Perhaps he was too focused to notice her presence. Stella didn’t say a word to him and just walked

away.

When she got home, the first thing Jordan did was check her leg. Seeing it much better, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He said, “I was worried that the hospital wasn’t good enough, but we needed to treat your leg soon, so I didn’t go anywhere else. I got the doctor there to do some quick care, and it actually helped.”

“It wasn’t that serious. Don’t go looking down on clinics,” Stella şaid with a shrug.

Jordan said, “Yeah, I know. It’s my fault.”

Stella reached over and pinched his nose gently. “Yep, that’s all on you.”

Jordan smiled. “By the way, I heard Max started working at

ur company. What do you think he’s up to?”

She said, “Not clear yet. Let’s wait and see. Even if he plans something, I’ll catch it eventually.”

Jordan took her hand. “I’m a bit uneasy. Having him around you is like sitting next to a ticking time bomb. What if ne suddenly goes off?”

“Don’t you trust me?” Stella asked on purpose.

Jordan shook his head. “Of course not. I’m just worried abou

you.”

Stella smiled. “I’m just kidding. I know you’re worried, but I can’t have you looking after me all the time.”

Jordan said, “Alright, I’ll have someone watch him. If he makes a move, I’ll make sure to handle it before you have to.”

Stella nodded, but what she didn’t expect was that on the fifth day of Max working at the company, Flons showed up

Fiona used to visit the Hayes Group all the time, so she knew the place well. She stood firmly at the garage entrance, bisecting stated’s pat

The driver took a quick look while Stella said calmly, “Call security and have them drag her out. If she refuses, call the police immediately 3

The driver made the call.

Fiona came up to Stella’s car to say something, but the driver saw her and immediately drove away.

Fiona chased after the car.

Meanwhile, the driver called security. “Someone is causing trouble in the garage. Hurry and get her out. Ms. Hayes said if she doesn’t cooperate, call the police.”

Stella headed straight to the top floor of the company. Nola told her that everything downstairs had been settled, and she didn’t need to worry

Stella nodded.

Around lunchtime, a client came by, and Stella took him out to lunch. She happened to see Leila next to Jordan. It seemed Leila noticed her too, deliberately moving closer to Jordan.

The next second, Stella saw Jordan shove Leila away. Seeing her all upset and frustrated, Stella smiled.

Leila was used to acting arrogant and putting herself first. Ignoring why Stella came over, she went right up to her and said, “Are you laughing at me?

Stella said, “I’m busy right now and don’t have time for you.”

Leila said, “Cut the act. I know the Hayes family’s company is on the brink. Don’t think you can save it on your own.”

As Leila spoke, she gave a disdainful glance at the man opposite Stella and then looked smugly at her. “Believe it or not, I could shut down every supermarket your family owns in an instant.”

Stella smiled at her client and looked Leila straight in the eye. “This is Mr. Owen Griffin from the Griffin Group. You know what he does. If you insist on causing trouble here, be prepared to face the consequences.”

Owen Griffin ran a multinational company based in Jaloria. His company made huge profits every year. Even Leila’s dad showed him a lot of respect.

Leila had indeed heard of him. She glanced once more at the man opposite Stella, took out her phone to check some photos, and saw it really was him.
