On the next day…
As soon as Stella went downstairs, she heard the doorbell.
Stella thought Clarence was back and hurriedly ran to the door.
But when she opened the door, she found the one standing at the door was Clarence’s subordinate.
His subordinate pushed the suitcase to Stella, “Ms. Radomil, Mr. Conrad asked me to send this to you.”
Stella took the suitcase from him, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
After his leaving, Stella carried the suitcase upstairs and opened the suitcase. When seeing the articles
of daily use and her clothes, she uncontrollably curled her lips into a smile.
Sometimes that wretched man was quite thoughtful.
Stella took out all the things from the suitcase. After washing herself, she changed her clothes and left
the house.
When she arrived at the Steward Group, Logan entered her office, “Ms. Radomil, do you feel better
now? Should you have a rest for two more days?”
Since Stella didn’t come to the company in the past few days, Donald told the others it was because
she was sick.
Stella curled her lips into a light smile, “Thank you. I’ve recovered.”
Logan put a document on her desk, “It’s good that you’re here. This is the financial statement for this
month.”
Stella randomly leafed through the document, preparing to read it carefully later. She asked, “Was
there any problem in the company in the past two days?”
“Mr. Bernard…”
Logan stammered. Seeing this, Stella said, “Spill the beans. What’s wrong with him again?”
Logan said, “Mr. Bernard was accused of having some relationship with a murder case. He kept
making fusses these days. But Ms. Radomil, please rest assured. The case is still under investigation.
Moreover, it’s said that it’s a personal grudge and it won’t impact the company.”
Stella replied, “I see. Please let Samuel come to my office.”
Logan hesitated for a while and then asked, “Samuel?”
Stella looked up at him, “Is there any problem?”
Logan shook his head and said with a smile, “Nothing. I will inform him right away.”
“Go.”
When Logan walked to the door, he turned around to take a glance at Stella and narrowed his eyes.
Stella had been designating Samuel to deal with many important tasks recently. Apparently, she was
evading him.
But Logan was clear that the tasks Stella asked Samuel to deal with were all related to Armand as she
wanted to fight against him. He’s better not get himself involved in these matters in the case that it
would bring himself into trouble.
He was taking advantage of them to fight against Armand. Once Armand lost his power, no one could
threaten him again and he could quickly get rid of the troubles here and leave.
Samuel came soon after Logan left Stella’s office.
With Nathan’s support, they got many pieces of evidence about the bribe and embezzlement Armand
committed before.
But these were far from enough.
They couldn’t defeat Armand completely with these.
Samuel said, “Ms. Radomil, Armand became fretful and restless because of the murder case and he’s
now trying to transfer his fortunes. Therefore, we got many things on him. If we continue to investigate
him, we will find out more evidence.”
Stella nodded her head, “Arrange it as what you said just now. Arrange some men to keep an eye on
Bonnie. Don’t give any opportunity for Armand’s man to get close to her.”
“Okay, I see.”
In the afternoon, when Stella was drawing a picture for design, the door of her office was suddenly
kicked open. Armand walked into the office while cursing, “You finally come to the company. I have to
get even with you for that matter today.”
Stella lifted her head and looked towards him, her expression remaining unchanged.
Several senior executives, who followed Armand into the office with Logan in the front, all tried to stop
Armand, “Mr. Bernard, Mr. Bernard, please don’t get angry. We can talk about it slowly.”
It seemed like Armand was very angry. He asked, “Don’t be angry? Can I not be angry? Someone
slandered me for murder. If this continues, I should be put into jail.”
Armand flung away their hands, smoothed his sleeve, walked to the desk and banged on it with great
force. He then pointed at Stella’s nose, “You planned it, right? It must be your frame. You tried to
accuse me of such a trumped-up charge.”
Stella leaned against the chair and said slowly, “Mr. Bernard, you’re so funny. I haven’t been to the
company for several days. How could I accuse of a trumped-up charge?”
“Don’t take this as your excuse. Couldn’t you do it even if you were not in the company? The car
accident only caused a concussion. You didn’t become stupid because of it!”
Stella paused and then looked up at him, “Mr. Bernard, how do you know that I had a car accident?”
When she finished the words, the whole office was soon prevailed by silence.
Those senior executives also felt confused. They couldn’t help whispering, “I heard that Ms. Radomil
couldn’t come to the company because she was sick. Did it have anything to do with a car accident?”
Armand realized his slip of the tongue, coughed awkwardly and adjusted his tie. He became less
arrogant.
He replied, “I heard from others.”
“Who said that?”
Armand replied fretfully, “Many things happen every day. I accidentally heard of it. How could I
remember it clearly?”
Stella chuckled, “Mr. Bernard, I know whom you hear this news from.”
Armand asked vigilantly, “Who?”
Stella didn’t reply. She asked in a calm voice, “Mr. Bernard, why are you here today? If you don’t have
any other matter, I have to continue with my work. Please go out.”
Armand’s expression changed dramatically and he became angrier and angrier, “You slandered me!
We haven’t made it clear. I…”
“Mr. Bernard, please rest assured. The laws of our country will ensure fairness. They will prove your
innocence if you didn’t do that.” Stella continued slowly, “But as for the crimes you committed, they will
find out one day.”
After all, Stella had got something on Armand and he didn’t dare to make a big fuss here. Armand
snorted, turned around and walked out of the office in strides.
The other senior executives followed Armand out of the office.
The office became quiet again.
Holding a pen in her hand, Stella tapped the nib on the desk.
She thought it was simply a car accident before, but judging from the current situation, she guessed it
was Armand who asked his men to hit her.
Stella leafed through the document in front of her. When Armand held the post of vice president of the
company, except for bribes and embezzlement, he also did many other things.
But the amount of the money he embezzled which was shown in this document was largely
inconsistent which the amount he transferred to the overseas accounts that Nathan found out.
Moreover, he had complicated interpersonal connections, which require a large sum of money to keep
the relationships.
If not for this, it would not be a huge problem for them to defeat Armand.
Therefore, Armand must have a larger source of money.
Stella put the document into the lowest drawer and locked it. She then picked up the design drawings
she drew during this period and prepared to go to the studio.
As soon as she walked out of the office, Logan walked over, “Ms. Radomil, are you going out?”
Stella replied with a nasal sound and said, “I will go to the studio.”
“Then let me give you a ride.”
“Don’t bother.”
“I heard of the car accident… To avoid a similar thing, you should be more careful.”
Stella replied, “I will pay more attention to it.”
Hearing the answer, Logan didn’t have the standpoint to say anything else. He could only send Stella
downstairs.
After Stella’s leaving, he looked around, turned around and got upstairs.
