The girl pretended to be enlightened, “Oh, that’s it. No wonder that I’ve been feeling it weird before. Mr.
Carter, you’re so awesome.”
Emmett replied with a light smile and then let go of her hand.
The girl lowered her head and began to blame herself, “I’m so dumb. Mr. Carter, will you disdain me?”
“It’s not a big deal. You will get hang of it after some practices.”
Emmett didn’t plan to teach her other things. After finishing the words, he turned around and wanted to
leave. The girl caught the opportunity and deliberately sprained her ankle and fell into Emmett’s arms.
Emmett subconsciously reached out to support her. He knitted his brows, yet didn’t say anything.
The girl’s face gradually turned red, “I’m so careless. It’s my fault. Thank you, Mr. Carter.”
Emmett replied, “Stand up if you’re alright.”
The girl reluctantly left his arms.
When Emmett turned around, the girl grabbed the golf club and walked to her colleagues.
A person gave her a thumps-up, “Mandy, you’re so great. Mr. Carter neglected that woman because of
you.”
Mandy raised her mouth corner with obvious triumph, “It’s not a big deal. I have more tricks later.”
“I’m so confused. Why is Mr. Carter into a woman who has a sugar daddy before? It’s really ridiculous.”
“Is there any other reason except for her beauty? Look at those female celebrities in the entertainment
industry. Aren’t they slept by many men? Being a mistress is so normal.”
“It makes sense. I guess that Mr. Carter doesn’t take her seriously.”
“But that woman must have many schemes since she can win the favor of a member of the Conrad
family. I hope that Mr. Carter won’t suffer loss from her.”
Mandy said disdainfully, “She’s not that capable. Probably she’s favored because of her preference.”
“It’s true that having a good appearance will bring a person many advantages. It was proved that she
was a home wrecker before, but SG…”
They were discussing it passionately.
On the other side…
Emmett walked to Stella, “Stella, sorry for keeping you waiting.”
Stella smiled, “It doesn’t matter.”
Emmett looked around and suddenly asked, “Do you know how to play golf? Do you want me to teach
you?”
Probably Stella hadn’t expected his words. She was stunned, “What?”
“It’s very simple. Do you want to have a try?”
Stella felt it inappropriate to refuse him since he had asked her twice. With the thought that she could
have a try, she didn’t try to find an excuse to decline him again.
Stella gently nodded her head, “Okay.”
Emmett took a golf club from aside. When he was about to teach her, his assistant walked over in
hurries and whispered something in his ear.
There was a slight change on his expression. He then said, “Let them wait for a while. I will be there
soon.”
His assistant left in strides when receiving the order.
Emmett put the golf club aside and said to Stella, “Stella, I have to deal with an emergency. Please wait
for me here. I will be back soon.”
“All right. Go and deal with it.”
Emmett moved his lips trying to say something, but in the end he didn’t utter a word. He turned around
and left in strides.
Stella found a bench beside the golf course and then sat down. She then took out her phone and
texted a message to Sherry.
Sherry called her soon, “Dear, it’s inconvenient for me to text now. Tell me, what’s the matter?”
Stella asked tentatively, “Did you send that university student back?”
Sherry chuckled, “It was a joke. Come on, don’t take it seriously.”
“What are you busy with now?”
“I’m powdering my face. I have an important date tonight. What about you, how’s your date with
Emmett? Is it going on well?”
Stella, “…”
After a short while of silence, she looked up at the sky, “You may not believe it. I bumped into Clarence
here.”
“I believe it.”
After being threatened by Clarence last time, Sherry knew deep down that Clarence hadn’t given up on
Stella. It was just that she didn’t dare to tell Stella about the truth because of his intimidation.
Stella heaved a sigh, “I almost thought that he followed me here. But the reality proved that I had
thought too much of it. Luckily, I didn’t come to question him. Otherwise, he would taunt at me again.”
Sherry asked gingerly, “What if he really followed you there?”
Stella shook her head, “I asked the manager of the hotel and he told me that the whole holiday village
is under the control of the Conrad Group and Clarence would come here to inspect their work at the
end of every year. Moreover, he arrived here last night, which was earlier than me.”
“Oh, what… what a coincidence.”
But Sherry didn’t believe that this was a coincidence. Even if what Stella said was true, it could not
prove that it was a coincidence. Instead, it could only prove that someone in Emmett’s company had
disclosed it.
When thinking of this, Sherry couldn’t help but click her tongue. Clarence was so wicked that he even
applied such a trick.
Grabbing her phone, Stella looked at the front dully. After a long while, he said, “Sherry, if there’s no
matter with our studio, I want to come back to Aqock two days later.”
Sherry asked, “Aqock? The place you went before?”
Stella nodded her head, “It’s said that it will be rebuilt after the New Year. I want to have a look at it
before it is demolished.
They chatted for another while. As Sherry was in a hurry to pick up a dress for her date, they ended the
call.
Stella put down her phone and looked dully at the distance, seeming to be lost in her thoughts.
Time passed by. But Emmett still didn’t come back.
Stella felt a bit boring. She stood up and turned her neck, and then she saw the golf club that was put
aside by Emmett before his leaving.
Stella walked over and weighed it in her hands. She then made a posture of playing golf.
Even though she didn’t play it before, she had seen others playing it.
She tried for several times, but the golf club never hit the golf.
Stella pouted, feeling it boring.
When she was about to give up, her hand that was holding the golf club was wrapped by a warm palm.
She abruptly turned around and glared at the man who was taking advantage of her.
But Clarence acted as if he hadn’t noticed her gaze. He grabbed her hand and moved it down the club,
“Hold this place. Why don’t you know such a simple thing? Is your head just a decoration on your
neck?”
Stella, “…”
She was wrong. In her imagination just now, she underestimated this wretched man and he was much
wickeder than her imagination.
Stella tried to withdraw her hand, “Mr. Conrad, I didn’t ask you to teach me. Please let go of me.”
Clarence replied in a light tone, “When seeing a stupid woman holding a golf club and playing golf
randomly on my golf course, I think that your behavior will bring loss to the revenue of the whole
holiday village.”
