Chapter 247: Chapter 247

When Stella opened it, she saw a white dance dress. The fabric felt very expensive, and the cutting was very elegant. She knew it was worth a lot at first glance. Subconsciously, she said, “This is too expensive” “If you don’t take it, I will throw it away!” Yvonne interrupted and said, displeased, “How can everyone accept it but not you?” Stella’s eyes flickered, but she remained silent. During the break, she glanced at the presents the other colleagues received subconsciously. Although all were of very high-

quality, it was obvious that hers should be the most expensive one.

Yvonne seemed to always have an unconcealed preference for her, whether she was Stella or Ella.

She always took good care of her.

Her eyes were watery as she placed the dress Yvonne gave her carefully into her luggage.

The moment she turned around, her eyes met a pair of eyes which were sizing her up. This was not the first time she had bumped into Joyce at such a time. Joyce looked at her sullenly. “Why are you here?”

Stella did not want to bother with her. “I should be asking you, why do you always appear behind me?”

After she said that she wanted to go past her and leave, Joyce grabbed her arm. “Don’t you dare try to change the subject. Why do you show up in places like this every time? Have you discovered something?” Her eyes flashed with ruthlessness for a moment. Seeing that, Stella frowned and shook off her hand. “What have you done here that is so unseemly that you need me to find out?”

“You!”

Joyce choked and said indignantly, “Just mind your own business! Aren’t you just relying on your background and connections? Now that the training institute is going to close down, I’ll see where you can go to show off!” “I don’t have anywhere I could show off at!” Stella was too lazy to explain to this kind of person. “Won’t you become unemployed as well?” “I am different from you. I rely on my capabilities, so I can live anywhere! But you are different. A person like you, who depends on connections, has no place to go after the institute closes down. Oh, wait, I was wrong!” She covered her mouth and sniggered. “You can survive with connections in this era. Perhaps a person like you is very good at flattering people. Are you going to follow Yvonne wherever she goes?”

“Yes. If you have the capabilities to do so, you can do it too and see if she cares about you.” Stella went along with her words. Joyce’s face immediately darkened upon that. “How are you so cocky?”

“There’s nothing for me to be cocky about. But you seem to hate me very much. I have no grievance with you, but why do you hate me? Or is it possible that you have feelings for me?” “Don’t flatter yourself.” Joyce was enraged Stella squinted her eyes and went in front of her. Suddenly, she held Joyce’s arms with one hand and pinned her onto the locker.

Joyce had never seen Stella like this, and was a bit nervous. “What do you want?”

“What do I want?” Stella clenched her fists.

She was an experienced worker. She knew that although she was not as physically strong as a man, it was sufficient for her to bluff in front of people like Joyce.

“I used to put up with everything, seeing as we’re colleagues. But now that the training center is closing, there are some things I don’t need to put up with.” Stella lowered her voice. “I’m telling you: I am the kind of person you think I am-a hypocrite! I dare you to keep on provoking me.”

“Are you threatening me?” Joyce glared at her with eyes wide open in disbelief. “Aren’t you just a person who relies on connections? How dare you threaten me!” Bam!

Stella shook off her hand and slammed her arm against the cabinet. “Threat? The next time I hear you talk nonsense, I’ll rip your mouth off.”

After that, she gave Joyce a cold look and turned around.
