Chapter 138

Keegan said sarcastically, “I would probably believe it if you said that she beat you up and threatened you to help her.”

“Stella looks so skinny and feeble. Does she really hit you?”

Keegan’s nose started to hurt again.

“Are you going to tell me or not? I’m going to hang up now!”

Vermont stopped fooling around and told him about what happened truthfully.

“Stella is ruthless. I heard that Albert is tendering for that project in Northon, and he’s risking more than half of his wealth on it, hoping that Henry would pull some strings for him. Henry is a petty man who would stop helping Albert if he could not make things go his way. In that way, Albert won’t be able to secure that project. Stella isn’t his only daughter. Why would she do this to her father?”

Keegan did not say anything.

Albert gave Stella enough reasons to hate him for her whole life after how he wanted to give up on treating Rainee not long after the accident.

What Stella would do to him was nothing compared to that.

“Ah? Why aren’t you speaking?”

Keegan frowned. “Why didn’t you ask her if you’re so curious?”

Vermont paused.

“Why did you get so mad whenever I talked about Stella? It’s just a pair of socks. Get over it.”

“Who told you about the socks?” Keegan froze.

“Stella, of course.” Vermont squinted. “Are you really that angry just because she accidentally gave that pair of socks to Marshall?”

“You talk too much!”

Keegan’s face turned cold. ‘Damn this woman. Why would she tell an outsider about it?!’

Vermont got very happy after getting the reaction he wanted. He asked, “Do you think I should do her this favor?”

“It’s your decision. Why would you ask me?”

Keegan did not want to talk to him anymore, so he hung up.

“Tsk.” Vermont clicked his tongue and called the jewelry store manager.

Stella went to the recording booth. One of her friends asked if she could make a guest appearance as a female character in an animated show.

She received no response after the audition, so she agreed to help as she had nothing to do.

She knew this friend when she just started dubbing. The friend’s name was Robin Keef, and everybody would call him the “Chief.” He was also one of the best voice actors in the industry.

However, he stopped working in the TV drama scene these two years as he started focusing on his new animated show business that he started with his friends.

His own company also produced the show he asked Stella to participate in.

It was purely a favor as Stella’s character would only appear in a few scenes.

Stella saw many people in the main hall as soon as she arrived.

Everybody there dressed in their unique style, and all looked very young.

Stella came to give them a flower basket when they had just started the company. She was about to go around and walk to the recording booth upstairs after gazing at the hall.

However, somebody called her before she could do that. “Registration’s over here!”

Stella froze. “Registration?”

A young lady said enthusiastically, “Yeah. Everyone’s here, Chief. You can only take part in the interview after registering here.”

‘Wow. This man really used his name as a selling point for recruiting. No wonder many young students are here early in the morning.’

Stella was not surprised that the young lady would think that she was just one of the students because of how crowded that place was. Besides, Stella had a ponytail and was dressed in casual clothes. Even though she was wearing a mask, she still looked very young. Her young- looking and delicate features looked exactly like a student who had just graduated.

Stella wanted to tell the young lady that she did not come for the interview, but she handed her the registration book directly. Then, the young lady saw the scar on the back of her hand as she was about to give her the pen. The young lady was shocked. “I’ll fill it in for you since your hand is hurt. What’s your name?”

Stella kept quiet.

The problem with Stella was she would have a hard time refusing someone if that person was very friendly to her.

When the lady was all set to start writing, Stella only said, “I’ll do it myself.”
