Chapter 1438

Now, it was just Matthew and Haley at the hospital door.

They hopped in the car.

Haley knew Matthew wasn’t her biggest fan, so she kept it chill with no chit-chat.

Sitting in silence, Haley finally felt some weight off her shoulders.

This was the first time she’d noticed the fancy decor in Matthew’s ride.

Thinking about her future, she couldn’t help but bubble with excitement.

She blurted out, “Mr.

Clark, I’ll prove I’m Stella’s mom soon.

We’ll be family.

”

Matthew gave her a cold stare in the rearview mirror.

“I hope so.

But if you’re lying to her, there’ll be consequences.

”

Then he hit the gas.

The car shot forward, catching Haley off guard.

Quick as a flash, she grabbed the back of the passenger seat to steady herself.

She leaned back, knowing it was a warning from Matthew.

But she stayed cool and said, “I’m definitely Stella’s real mom.

You can count on it.

”

Matthew shot her a cold glance but stayed silent.

When Stella hit the film set, Luther waved her over.

Standing beside him was a knockout.

She had gorgeous eyes Like crescent moons and lips like ripe cherries.

Stella felt a flicker of recognition but couldn’t place her.

“This is Debora Holmes.

She’s joining the cast today, playing the boss in the second half.

You two will be sharing plenty of scenes, so get acquainted,” Luther introduced.

Stella’s memory clicked into place.

Debora had started young.

She was a child star who had hit the big leagues at twenty.

But then she’d vanished for three years, reappearing only recently to find herself edged out by new talent.

Stella extended her hand.

“Hey there, I’m Stella.

I’m just starting out, so I’m all ears for any tips you’ve got.

”

Facing off with a star like Debora was a dream come true for Stella.

She’d never imagined this moment.
