Stella's tongue pressed against the roof of her mouth and glanced at Bella. The latter smirked, and her eyes were glowing withvenom. Meanwhile, Yolanda gloated, "Come on, hurry up. Don't waste our time. Mr. Winfield is going to treat us to lunch afterthis."
Stella shifted her attention. When she was about to speak, the training door opened. A gentle voice sounded. "Mr. Winfield, can |bother you for a second?"
Stella paused and turned to see Marshall smiling at the door, holding a lot of coffee in his hand. Stuart was startled, but heimmediately showed a big smile on his face. "Marshall, what brings you here?"
Stella was confused. Marshall gently replied, "I heard from a friend that you were preparing for a new show and was training theactors here. | came to visit since | was passing by.” He then turned to face the audience. ‘I'm not disturbing, am |?"
“Nonsense, we're not even filming for real, so it's not considered a disturbance. I’m happy you're here,” Stuart said, as he tookthe coffee from Marshall's hand, letting his assistants hand them out to everyone. Then, he added, "When did you come back tothe country?”
Marshall responded, "Quite a while ago. The new law firm my friend started has been quite busy, so | didn't get the chance tocontact you until now."
“Ah, work comes first. It doesn't matter when you contact me." Stuart paused before he continued, "How's your health?""All good."Stuart's eyes were curved. "That's good to know.”
According to what Kaiden said, Stuart was indeed a chatterbox. He chatted with Marshall for half an hour until his phone rang.Only then did he excuse himself to answer the call.
Stella took her coffee, walked up to Marshall, and whispered, "You know our director, Mr. Moore?"
Marshall nodded. "His daughter studied abroad and was involved in a bullying case. | helped him win the lawsuit.”‘No wonder,’ Stella thought.
Marshall then said lowly, "I can stall him a little longer. Your friend should be bringing the clothes over soon."Stella was startled. "How did you know about this?"
Marshall chuckled. "I saw your post on social media. Initially, | wanted to visit you and bring some food for you. But, | didn't knowwhere you were, so | called and asked your friend and got to know the news from her.
"She's borrowing the outfit from another production team, but it's quite far away. She was afraid she wouldn't make it in time, soshe asked me to come and help stall things. Who knew that | would know the director? Well, that's fortunate."novelbin
‘No wonder,’ Stella thought again. She was wondering why Marshall suddenly showed up here. It turned out that he was helpingher to stall time. Stella gave a sigh of relief. "You've helped me big time."
If the costume could not come today, Bella and Yolanda would have definitely made a big deal out of it. Stella would give off ahorrible impression if she made such a big fuss before the film even started filming.
Marshall asked, "How was your costume damaged?"
Stella shook her head. "Don't ask about it. It was all because of some rats."
Marshall scanned the room, and his gaze fell on Bella. He lowered his eyes and said, "Do you want to get revenge?"
"Huh?"
Marshall smiled and changed the topic. "This costume looks nice."
Stella was happy upon hearing his compliments. "My mother gave it to me. She followed the pictures in the book and modifiedthem. She had a tailor to make it for me."
Marshall's eyes dimmed. "She has good taste. It suits you."
Stella smiled brightly. At that moment, Stuart finished his call and came back. He wanted to chat with Marshall for a little longer,but Yolanda was afraid that he would forget about the upcoming shoot. So, she said in a coquettish voice, "Mr. Winfield, whenare we going to start? | have something to do at noon."
