Stella felt quite weird. She raised her head and asked, âThen what?â
Clarence said, stressing each syllable, âHave you paid by all the favors youâve owed him?â
âMr. Conrad, it has nothing to do...â
âWhen will you pay me back my favors to you?â
Upon hearing it, Stella was speechless.
Inwardly, she couldnât help but curse him.
In the past, he asked her to pay back the money she borrowed. Now he wanted her to pay back the favors she owed him. She wondered for how long this wretched man wanted to torture her.
Noticing the fury surged in her beautiful eyes, Clarence took a step back. He said in a steady tone, âIâm not anxious. You can take your time.â
Stella closed her eyes and failed to suppress her anger, âMr. Conrad, on the heck do you want? Like what Iâve said, if you donât want to let go of me, you can revenge on me at one time.â
âNo, I canât,â said Clarence, âDonât you know Iâm a businessman? A businessman always likes to adopt a long-term plan to gain something big. Iâve never put all the baits in a one-go.â
âOh, excuse me, Mr. Conrad, what on earth do you want to gain from me then?â
Clarence curled up his thin lips slightly. Raising his hand, he pointed at her chest with his index finger.
Stella choked up.
Subconsciously, she hid her chest while folding her arms.
She knew that the wretched man had a nasty mind.
Upon Clarence realized what she was thinking, his temples popped. His finger landed on the back of her hand. He looked down at her and said meaningfully, âStella, this thing will belong to me sooner or later.â
Stella patted his hand off with a frown. Disgust and resistance were written all over her face.
She said, âMr. Conrad, probably I didnât make things clear before. I donât think itâs necessary for us to keep in touch. Besides, I donât want to see your face any longer. Mr. Conrad, if you believed that Iâve owed you some favors and you want me to pay them back, please let me know your requests. Iâll try my best to...â
âStella, you should know it clearly - you donât have the final say to start or end anything.â
Stella was speechless.
Clarence opened the door of the office. After casting a glance outside, he looked back at her, âIâll come to find you tomorrow.â
After that, he strode away without waiting for Stellaâs response.
Seeing him go far, the other three women in the studio breathed sighs of relief. They looked at Stella in a union, only to find her in a daze. It seemed that she hadnât returned to her senses from the shock.
Sherry let the other two girls knock off. Then she walked to Stella. She whispered, âStella, did I mishear anything? The wretched man said he would come here tomorrow again?â
Stella felt that her eyelids were twitched. She turned to look at her and answered in depression, âProbably youâve misheard.â
She wondered what went wrong with that wretched man again tonight. After speaking some creepy things to her, he finally left by leaving her such a blockbuster.
She cursed him again.
Sherry comforted her, âItâs alright, Stella. We wonât be here tomorrow, anyway. Let him come to get a cold-shoulder treatment.â
Stella, however, couldnât be delighted at all. She raised her hand and looked at the back, frowning deeply.
She wondered what he meant by his words just now? Had he had become a devil to threaten her with her hand aiming to end her career for the rest of her life?
Stella had been thinking for a long while, but couldnât figure anything out.
Instead, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Standing next to her, Sherry was thinking about their classmate reunion tomorrow.
Although it was called the classmate reunion, it was a blind date that she carefully planned for Stella.
All the male classmates she had invited to attend were single and successful in their careers. Although they were not so rich as Clarence the wretched man, their tempers and characters were far better than his.
After a while, Sherry dragged Stella, who was still lost in thought, âItâs still early now. Letâs do a hair and buy some dresses. We shall dress up tomorrow.â
Stella was confused, âDress up for what?â
âIsnât it our classmate reunion tomorrow? We canât go so casually. We should dress up for it.â
After that, she dragged Stella away without letting her refuse.
In the hair salon, Sherry browsed something on her cell phone, âPlease give her this kind of perm. Itâs the most popular style online right now.
Everyone looks good with it. Youâll look prettier.â
Stella pulled her to sit next to her as well, âLetâs do it together, Sherry.â
Sherry waved her hand, âNot necessary. I donât need...â
Stella said to the hairdresser, âPlease do the sperm for her as well.â
After spending a long time in the hair salon, their perms were done. Sherry approached her and put down the magazine, âWow. You look so beautiful.
Iâm sure the men tomorrow would be stunned.â
Her voice was quite low, so Stella didnât hear what she said clearly, âPardon?â
Stella turned around and cast a glance at Sherry. She asked in surprise, âSherry, why did you get the hair cut so short?â
Sherry raised her brows at her and tossed the short hair that only reached her neck, âHow do you like it? Iâve thought about cutting my hair short for a long time, but I didnât have the guts. I just took this chance to do it.â
Stella nodded, âYou look gorgeous.â
After done the hair, Sherry dragged Stella to the shop. She picked up all the dresses that could show Stellaâs shape and curve.
Since Stella got pregnant, she had been wearing loose clothes. Suddenly, her style was changed. She couldnât get used to it.
Stella said, âItâs just a classmate reunion. I donât need to dress like this, do I?â

Stella, let me tell you. Itâs not a matter of the classmate reunion. Even if thereâs no such a reunion, you should dress up every day. You canât waste your beauty.â
The saleslady next to them echoed in a low voice, âMiss, are you a movie star? I know Iâve seen you somewhere before.â
Sherry smiled, âAll good-looking women look similar.â
The sales lady said enviously, âYou are way too good-looking. You are better looking than a star and you have a good shape too.â
Sherry poked Stella with her elbow, âSee? What did I say? You should let others enjoy your beauty.â
Stella was speechless.
Sherry said, âIâll go home and throw away your clothes later. Do you remember? When you were working for SG Jewelry Magazine, a lot of people asked me if all the male employees in the company were not so good-looking, so you didnât have any interest to dress up properly. You are in your twenties and still young, why...â
Stella was afraid of her nagging. She gave the dresses that she had tried on to the saleslady, âIâll take them all. Thanks.â
When they went back home, the cushions to prevent the bumps while moving had been removed and the corridor was cleaned up. Sherry asked, âDoes it mean our neighbor next door had moved in? Shall we meet the new neighbor?â
Stella said, âWhy donât you wait for a few days? Letâs meet them after seeing them in person.â
âOkay. If we suddenly go to the, itâs kind of embarrassing.â
