Though Stella hadnât been with Prosperity Group long, she sensed Matthewâs dedication to his work.
He knew which things he should prioritize accordingly.
Hearing Stellaâs words, Matthew felt mixed emotions.
He was pleased Stella showed concern for both him and the company.
But at the same time, he was also worried that Stella would misunderstand the situation.
âI have nothing to do with Kaia,â Matthew declared firmly.
âThe online rumors are fake news created by the Lyons family.
Iâve already warned Kaia in person just now.
â
For a moment, Stella froze, realizing sheâd made unfounded assumptions.
âMr.
Clark, you donât need to explain this to me.
Iâm simply concerned about the companyâs public image,â she said, eyes glistening.
There was a hint of regret in her voice.
Before Stella could delve into her feelings, Matthew interjected, âIf my employee has concerns, I owe it to her to address them.
Shall we proceed with the business at hand?â
Nodding, Stella promptly handed over the documents.
Upon reviewing it, Matthew was impressed by Stellaâs thorough assessment of each modelâs strengths and weaknesses.
He was satisfied with the models that Stella had chosen.
âProceed with your selections and begin designing the collection,â he instructed.
âAbsolutely, Iâll get started immediately,â Stella responded cheerfully.
Back at her desk, she powered up her computer and couldnât resist checking the news.

To her astonishment, all reports about Matthew and Kaia had vanished, leaving only innocuous coverage of the Lyons family dinner.
Surprised, Stella smiled to herself.
After the rumors about Matthew died down, Stella swiftly sorted out her emotions and plunged wholeheartedly into her work.
She was putting in extra hours daily, and on several occasions, she awoke in the middle of the night with a burst of inspiration, promptly rising to sketch out her designs.
As Stella prepared to head to work, dark circles evident under her eyes, Miley couldnât resist commenting, âYouâre working as hard as a CEO.
How much is Matthew paying you to work this diligently?â
Looking exhausted, Stella replied softly, âIâve recently been promoted to director of the design department.
I need to put in the effort to prove my capabilities, or else how will I earn the respect of my colleagues?â
