Chapter 882
‘This is awkward. This is really awkward. How could the attorney Felicity introduced to me be from Marshall's firm? That bastard.Why didn't she tell me? If | had known, | would've just directly consulted Marshall. What gossip is there to avoid? Now everybodyknows. How awkward is that?’ Stella thought.
She scratched her head and tried to come up with an excuse, "Well... Well, it's just a small problem, and | feel like you've beenpretty busy recently. Besides, it's just a consultation. I'll definitely go to you if | really need to go to court.”
When Marshall saw how Stella spoke carefully, worried that she would say things that made him upset, he suddenly felt atenderness in his heart. He laughed and said warmly, "I'm not blaming you. You're helping our law firm's staff enhance theirprofessional skills, so you're kind of helping me train them.”
Stella faked a laugh.‘If it weren't for Marshall's earnest expression, | would've thought he was mocking me with such words,’ she thought.Yoven stared at Stella.
‘Isn't this the woman Yolanda asked me to deal with? And here | was, wondering why she looked so familiar. | think the last time |met her was also at this place. Marshall's originally icy expression instantly melted away. No wonder he doesn't want the moneyor women | gave him; his heart already belongs to someone. Which man can resist a beauty like her?
| knew it; as long as the person is a human, they'll have desires. If they remain unmoved, it's only because | didn't get theirdesires right,’ he thought.
At this thought, he smiled. When he walked past Yolanda, he pinched her butt when nobody was paying attention. Then, heexchanged some words with Marshall and left.
Stella initially wanted to tell Marshall they should meet another day since she did not know when the gathering would end.However, Marshall suddenly called out her name before she could speak.
"Stella."
Stella lifted her gaze.
He pointed at her head, "There's something in your hair."
"Huh?"
Stella was confused as she reached out to touch her head. Marshall grabbed her hand before she could do so."| think it's better for you not to touch it.”
Stella was bewildered.
Then, the actresses next to her also looked over. Someone said, "Stella, there's an insect on your head!"
"Oh shoot! It's massive and has many legs."
Stella abruptly froze on the spot. She did not dare to move at all, and her voice trembled slightly.
"Wh-What insect? Stop joking!"
"I'm really not joking! Stop moving around. What if it falls into your shirt?”novelbin
Stella paled in fear hearing the person's words. She was terrified of insects, particularly the ones with really long legs.Marshall looked at her pale expression and warmly consoled her.
"Don't be scared. I'll help you get it off," he said, taking a handkerchief from his pocket. Then, he placed the handkerchief on hishand and removed the insect from the top of her head.
