Chapter 17
When Love Comes Late
Stella tried to think of what could have possibly gone wrong, but she couldnât figure it out.
Divorce was common amongst the elites, so maybe she couldnât understand Matthewâs decision because they werenât on the same level.
Besides, how was her bossâs private life any of her business? She was hired to work as a PR officer, not a marriage counselor.
After talking some senses into her own head, Stella calmed down and continued to familiarize herself with the companyâs current affairs.
It was almost noon when Matthewâs personal assistant, Fernando, showed up at Stellaâs desk.
He tapped her desk and held out a document.

âThis is the guest list for the anniversary party this weekend.
I need you to crosscheck it thoroughly, so there wonât be any surprises or mistakes.
â
âGot it.
â Stella took over the document.
She got right to work.
One by one, she did a background check on the guests, checked their business experiences, and also looked to see if they had any conflict with Prosperity Group.
After what happened with Henry yesterday, she couldnât afford to do a shabby job.
The last name on the list was Vivien Sugden.
Vivien was a household name.
As a star, she had been linked to many powerful men, including Matthew.
Rumor once had it that there was something romantic going on between them.
Frowning, Stella didnât know what to do with Vivien.
She ran to ask Fernando.
âFollow your heart,â replied Fernando.
She should follow her heart?
Burdened by this, Stella returned to her desk still frowning.
After pondering for a long time, she decided to search online about the relationship between Matthew and Vivien.
It turned out that there was no evidence to prove that these two ever dated.
Everything online was just groundless gossip.
And since both parties didnât comment on the issue, the public opinion was divided.
Stella stared at Vivienâs name, lost in thought.
What table should she assign to Vivien?
The weekend rolled by quickly.
At eight oâclock in the evening, Prosperity International Hotel was lit up and buzzing with life.
The 30th-anniversary banquet of Prosperity Group was being held here.
Luxurious cars lined up the driveway of the hotel.
Several businessmen and celebrities from all across the country turned up in their beautiful and expensive outfits.
In the banquet hall, bigwigs gathered in fives and sixes to discuss and raise a toast to each other.
