It was Keegan calling, probably because he had seen the news on the internet. Stella tried to leave toanswer the call, but Zachery glanced at her. Then, a man came forward and snatched her phone away.
“What are you doing?” Stella frowned and asked.
“Since you don’t want to post the apology, we’ll post it for you,” said Zachery, who was ready to gothrough her phone.
Stella turned red. She picked up a cup of coffee on the table nearby and threw it at Zachery’s face.Zachery cursed as he wiped off the coffee from his eyes, while Stella grabbed her phone with a coldexpression and said, “My agency will handle the post. The document I signed with your company is justa business cooperation contract. You have no right to dictate what I do with my personal social mediaaccount.”
Stella paused for a moment and continued, “I’ve said what I need to say. You can check the CCTVs ifyou don’t believe me. Don’t accuse me of doing something I didn’t do just because people are talkingabout it in the comments. If I were the one who pushed Bella down the stairs, then I would die ahorrible death. But, if she was the one who did it to herself, then she deserves the broken leg.”
Zachery was so angry that his face turned red. He was about to say something when Stuart interruptedhim. “Mr. Jensen, it’s too early to make this kind of decision. If we force her to apologize now, things willget complicated when the truth comes out.”
“She’s your responsibility!” Zachery pushed Stuart’s hand away and said in a cold voice.
At the same time, Shea entered the room and saw that Zachery was ready to leave. She took a fewglances at him and withdrew her gaze. From Stella’s expression, she could tell that something
unfavorable must have happened while she was gone.
Before Shea could come up with theories about what had happened, Stuart called out to Stella andsaid in a low voice, “Stay home and rest for the next two days. I’ll update you if there’s any progress.”
Stella wanted to explain herself but decided not to when she saw how tired Stuart looked. The moreshe tried to clear herself without any proof, the more it would look like she was guilty. ‘I shouldn’t wastemy time here,’ thought Stella. She entered the car and called Keegan.
“Where are you right now?” Keegan asked as soon as the call connected.
“I’m in the car, and I’m about to go home.”
“Don’t go back to your place. Your address has been doxed online. There are journalists stationed allaround Clouditude International. You won’t be able to get in.”
Stella was stunned. She laughed wryly, thinking about how much she had underestimated Bella’sinfluence on her huge fan base.
“I’ll send you a location. Ask the driver to take you there. I’ll be there in a bit.”
“I didn’t push her,” Stella said softly.
“I know,” Keegan replied.
“But, I did kick her off the ship when we were on the cruise last time.”
Keegan chuckled and whispered, “I know that too.”
Stella was silent for a while before she said, “You mentioned that Bella saved someone significant toyou, but you didn’t tell me who it was. And I won’t ask you about it now, but I want to know… Are you
going to intervene if I go against Bella?”
Stella did not wait for Keegan to respond. Instead, she continued, “If you do, at least let me do what Ineed to, and you can do what you need to afterward. I have to take my anger out on her even if I don’twin in the end.”novelbin
Hearing that, Keegan sighed and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t get in the way. I’ve already paid backwhat’s due to her long ago. But it’s better if you keep your hands clean. I’ll deal with the payback.”
