Chapter 644
She had assumed that he’d been really busy at work today, which was why he came home late at night.
But in fact, he’d been accommodating two women simultaneously while handling a multi-billion dollar project. Stella
had to begrudgingly admit that he was a rather impressive man.
She shook her head, wondering why she’d waste her time thinking about all these meaningless things. She picked
up her phone and called Roger.
“Sis?” he answered almost instantly.
“Roger,” she replied as she got into the car. “I heard that you came looking for me on set. Why didn’t you call me
first?”
Roger had just come out of the cafeteria, with Riley close on his heels. He was initially delighted to see that Stella
was calling him, but hearing her question made him pause.

stay right now? Can you give me your address? That way, I can go straight to your house when I want to meet you
next time.”
“You should let me know in advance next time you’re coming on set,” she told him. “I’m not the boss there. If you
show up suddenly and go straight to Bradley Lane like that again, you might cause delays for the shooting.” “But
Bradley Lane didn’t seem to mind…”
“He was just being polite,” argued Stella. “You shouldn’t take advantage of people just because they are being
gracious to you.” “Okay,” Roger relented. “I got it…”
“Have you finished your classes yet?”
“One more lecture, and I’m done for the day.”
“Great! I’ll go see you later then. I’m done with filming for the day myself.”
“Really?” Roger’s eyes lit up. “I’ll be waiting for you then!”
“Okay. Are you with Riley right now?”
Stella was obviously teasing him. “I’m hanging up now!” he snapped, grunting vaguely. Stella laughed when she
heard the beeping tone. She then turned to the driver and said, “Take me to the mall. I’ve got some things to buy.”
“Yes, Miss Steele.”
Stella soon arrived at the nearest mall. She thought of
buying a new set of clothes for Roger, but as she walked past a familiar storefront, she paused and stared at the
locked door, lost in thought.
The last time she was there, the staff mistreated her, and she was humiliated by Guinevere Cohen. Although she
managed to turn things around in the end, the place still evoked bad memories in her mind.
Nevertheless, it did surprise her that in a short period of time since then, the store was now out of business.
An employee of the retail outlet next door was standing nearby welcoming the customers. When she saw Stella
standing there, she approached Stella and struck up a conversation with her. “Hello, there!” she chirped. “Were you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtrying to shop there? That store recently closed down because of their bad service. Why don’t you look around our
store instead?”
“I’m looking to buy men’s clothes, ” Stella replied.
“Ah, no worries. We’ve got that too!”
Stella liked the employee’s amiable attitude, so she followed her into the store.
“Did that store close down because someone made a complaint?” Stella asked.
She remembered asking for their customer service number, but she didn’t actually call them. All she wanted
was to give them a scare.
But it wouldn’t surprise her if someone else made a complaint about them, judging by how bad their service was.
“I think they must’ve offended someone important,” the employee replied. “I heard that there was an incident in
the store two days ago. Soon after that, their store was closed, and two employees were fired…”
“How many days ago?” Stella interrupted. “When was it exactly?”
The employee replied, and a strange look flashed across Stella’s face.
