Stella didn’t speak again while holding the glass.
Caesar looked at the bench and asked, “Would you mind if I sat down here?”
Stella said, “Of course. It’s a public bench.”
Caesar tidied his clothes and sat down, “Ms. Radomil, you are a jewellery designer. I guess you must
be pretty familiar with the jewellery in the exhibition.”
“Mr. James, you’ve thought highly of me indeed. I haven’t seen most of them before.” After a pause,
she asked, “Mr. James, has your car been repaired?”
Caesar answered, “Yes, it has. There was only a scratch on the painting. Not a big deal. Ms. Radomil,
please don’t take it to your heart.”
After a moment of silence, Stella suddenly said, “Mr. James, I remember you said you came to City N
because something had happened to Riverside City earlier. I wonder if you have got the information
you wanted.”
Caesar probably hadn’t expected that she was so straightforward. After a few seconds, he laughed and
said, “Ms. Radomil, your words seem to have implications.”
Stella said, “I just don’t think it’s necessary to beat around the bush. Mr. James, we both know who has
something to do with the incident in Riverside City. Since you came to town with the purpose, I believe I
must get an answer from you.”
“Yes, Ms. Radomil, you are right. I cam to City N to know more details. So far, I’ve found almost all the
information I need. I also have answers to my questions earlier.
“However, please don’t worry, Ms. Radomil. I came to City N not targeting Conrad Group or Clarence
Conrad. I have a plan to develop my business here. Hence, I came to town for cooperation negotiation
as well. Recently, I’m negotiating with a few companies. When it’s done, I’ll leave City N,” said Caesar.
Stella pressed her lips slightly, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to send you away.”
Caesar put on a gentle smile, “I understand. I know after you’ve experienced so many ups and downs,
you are quite alert to strangers, Ms. Radomil. It happens. After I leave City N, the only thing that
worries me will be Elaine. She’s not willing to go back to Riverside City, so I’m afraid you need to take
care of her for another period, Ms. Radomil.”
After they sat outside for a while, they heard noises from the exhibition center.
Thinking that Elaine was still inside, Stella immediately stood up and walked in, aiming to find out what
was happening.
As soon as she arrived at the entrance, she heard the onlookers discussing.
“This little girl must be Winnie Truman’s fan. Flora has done it obviously, but she still bit the bait. How
tricky Flora is! Even Winnie Truman would hide from her.”
“This girl is too young. However, she’s a true fan of Winnie Truman. She’s so bold. If it were another
girl, how dare she argue with Flora in front of so many people?”
“Exactly. In this aspect, I envy Winnie Truman a lot. I also want such a kind of fans.”
Stella glanced at the two women next to her, who were both actresses. Although they were not famous,
they often appeared in a lot of soap operas.
She guessed that the little girl they mentioned must be Elaine.
Stella quickened her pace and walked in.
After taking a few steps, she heard Flora’s voice from the onlookers, “The netizens are still discussing
this matter online. What’s the use of your argument with me? I didn’t ask her to be a man’s mistress.”
Elaine wasn’t good at such an enigmatical argument. However, Stella could hear that she was pretty
angry from her tone, “Bullshit! She’s not that kind of person. You are just... just...”
Elaine tried her best to recall the words that Sherry cursed Flora that night but failed. Hence, she had to
use the most polite words, “You are just jealous of her.”
Flora heaved a sigh, “Little girl, I understand how you feel as her fan. But I don’t need to be jealous of
her on this matter. When you choose your idol, you must distinguish between right and wrong and have
basic morality. You can’t ignore your three outlooks just because of your idol.”
Right after Flora finished speaking, Stella squeezed in among the onlookers.
She stopped Elaine, who was quite anxious and looked over at Flora. She asked in a cold tone, “Is
your morality let you trouble such a young girl in front of so many people?”
Seeing her, Flora looked less arrogant. However, she insisted, “You might not know what happened. I
was chatting with my friends, but she came to me and argued with me. I feel quite ashamed to talk
about such a thing in so many people. How come I’m troubling her with it?”
“Ms. Alvin, you are here to work, aren’t you? Did you deliberately ask for leave just because you
wanted to gossip with your friends here?”
“I’m here to see the jewellery exhibition. I’m not so idle to gossip about the low-level things.”
Stella said expressionlessly, “I see. Hence, you got a day off from the crew for the jewellery exhibition
here. After coming in, you completely ignored the jewellery and deliberately brought up those
controversial topics in her presence.”
“I...”
Flora was rendered speechless. For a moment, she couldn’t utter any word to retort.
She came to this jewellery exhibition because she got to know that this exhibition centre belonged to
Chassell Barret.
She wanted to hype the old news, so the man involved in the scandal must be there.
That was why Flora came over to look for chances. While she was wandering around, she encountered
one of Winnie’s friends who had barbecue food with her. Elaine looked pure-minded and young, so
Flora believed that it was quite easy to use her.
That was why she targeted Elaine.
All the stars in the exhibition knew that Flora couldn’t get along with Winnie and could tell that Flora had
done it on purpose, but they had nothing to do with this matter. They all watched the fun.
Much to their surprise, Stella exposed Flora’s purpose directly, embarrassing her so much.
They thought that Flora would fight back, but she tolerated it.
Right then, Chassell squeezed among the crowd and stood in front of them. He asked, “What
happened?”
Flora smiled. ‘Good timing,’ she thought to herself.
Holding her arms, she said slowly, “Nothing serious. This young girl seems to be Winnie’s fan. She’s
against me because of her. Mr. Barret, why don’t you tell her if I’ve slandered Winnie?”
Chassell cast her a glance and looked at Elaine. He said in a deep tone, “Winnie and I used to be in
love, but it happened in the past. It’s not her fault. I’m responsible for it. Hence, if you want to blame
someone, you should blame me. Don’t scold her.”
Chassell cast her a glance and looked at Elaine. He said in a deep tone, “Winnie and | used to be in
love, but it happened in the past. It’s not her fault. I’m responsible for it. Hence, if you want to blame
someone, you should blame me. Don't scold her.”
