"That was a brilliant move, Star. How did you even find that guy?"
"He was mentioned in the files Harland sent me," Stella replied.
Antoney paused. Stella had shared the files with him, but he had no memory of this person. His memory was excellent, so for him to not recall the name meant the man must have been a mere footnote. How many times must Stella have gone over those files to find such an obscure individual and use him so perfectly?

**The Lerman Estate.**
The night was pitch-black, and the room was unlit. Only a sliver of moonlight filtered through the window, reflecting in the eyes of the man sitting in a wheelchair. Harland listened as his assistant delivered a report.
"I didn't expect Stella to be so resourceful," Harland said with a faint smile. "To think she found him… Leonard never would have dreamed he'd be brought down by such a minor player."
"What should we do now, sir?" the assistant asked. "Do we continue to wait?"
"Stella has proven her strength and capability," Harland replied. "To remain idle any longer would show a lack of sincerity." He smiled. "It's time to add more fuel to the fire."
Just as the assistant was about to respond, his gaze shot to the door, his eyes sharp. "Who's there?!"
A woman's voice came from the other side. "It's me, sir, Moon… I've brought you a late-night snack."
"You may go," Harland told his assistant, who nodded and left swiftly.

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....
