Chapter 178
Stella’s body trembled as her face turned pale, but she didn’t say a word. Mr. Smith had driven here to
fetch Ruby. After settling Ruby in the car, Stella stood at the door and stayed outside.
Mr. Smith looked at her. “Ms. Steele, aren’t you getting in?”
Stella shook her head. “I still have something to attend to. Mr. Smith, please send Ruby home first.”
Ruby stuck her head out of the window. “Mr. Steele, let my dad fetch you home!” Stella, smiling, replied,
“I still have something else to do. Go home safe.”
Although Mr. Smith’s private life wasn’t exactly clean, as Stella remembered all the arrangements he
made in the private room, he knew his way around people. He said to Stella,” It’s not safe for a woman to
be around so late at night. If you have nothing important, please let me send you home.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis words sounded reasonable and kind, and it was hard to associate this man with someone who
objectified women.
Stella shook her head with a smile. There were just too many two-faced people in the world.
“Thank you, Mr. Smith, for the thought,” she said. “My friend is coming to pick me up.”
With that, Mr. Smith’s face changed as he looked at Stella with slight curiosity, “Since Ms.
Steele has things to attend to, we’ll make our move then. Take care on the road.”
Stella nodded and she looked on as they drove off.
The look on Mr. Smith’s face clearer indicated that he understood something.
He had previously coupled Justin with herself. Now that she mentioned a “friend”, he should understand
that it’s impossible between Justin and herself, which was why he looked at her that way just now.
At the very least, he probably won’t involve Justin in the future.
After everyone around her left, Stella saw a black luxury car in the carpark signaling to her.
She knew that he wanted her to go over.
She took a deep breath and looked around her. Upon confirming that there was no one else, she walked
slowly to the black car.
She was about to reach out to open the door when the door opened wide from inside.
A strong hand shot out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her into the car in one swift move. Stella yelped
and felt herself being pressed into the leather seat before she could react.
An overpowering kiss consumed her.
Her lips were sealed, and she could say nothing to resist the sudden attack. Both her hands were
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtrapped above her head, and there was nothing she could do to oppose him.
Her coat was lifted up and Stella helplessly shut her eyes. She was completely at the mercy of his manic
whims.
After a long while, the man lifted his head and looked at her. “How bold of you to come running to a place
like this.”
Stella tried to catch her breath as she lay down, her head turned to the side. “I already told you that I was
bringing Ruby here…”
Weston pinched her chin and forced her to look into his eyes, “Did I allow you to audition?”
“Didn’t the director explain things to you just now? It was just a casual trial…”
“Even a casual trial is not allowed,” Weston snapped. He recalled her performing and putting herself on
display in front of everyone, and when he thought of her wearing what she was wearing, he couldn’t bear
the thought of it. “You are mine. I don’t like the idea of you being exposed to the world.”
His words pierced through Stella’s heart as she clenched her fists and looked at him with mockery.
“Then, what about Guinevere? Isn’t she even more exposed to the world being a famous celebrity?” His
eyes narrowed dangerously. “She’s different.”
