Mr. Ford Is Jealous
Chapter 222

Chapter 222

She knew Joan was not only in charge of taking care of her. She had also been ordered to keep a watch on her.

Every move she made would not escape Weston's eyes.

Joan seemed to be hesitant at her request. She sighed seeing the light in Stella's eyes turn dimmer. She said, "Ms. Steele, I'm just an employee. If you have any displeasure, please communicate with Mr. Ford directly."

That meant Joan could not make the decision. Stella nodded and managed a smile at her. "Okay. Nevermind. Don't worry about it. I won't trouble you." She casually pulled a towel and wiped the water from her face. At the same time, her phone in the living room suddenly beeped. She went over to see that it was a message from Yvonne. [Yvonne: Ella, why didn't you pick up the phone? I have something to tell you. The training center may be closed down.) Stella's face changed. She hurriedly looked up her call log and found several missed calls from Yvonne. She called her back in a hurry. As soon as the call connected, she asked Yvonne, "Why is the training center closing?" However, Yvonne was not the one who answered the call. A man's voice replied, "The policy has tightened these days. There's no need to run the training center anymore.

"Ms. Steele, please stay away from Yvonne from now on. She's righteous and always does stupid things for her friends. She easily trusts others. Please don't use her." His tone was soft, yet polite and distant. He was not blaming her, but Stella understood.

Stella quietly pinched her palm. Lucas' warning was clear; he did not conceal his prejudice against her. He did not want her to bring Yvonne's reputation down. Stella did not say anything and hung up the phone. About a few minutes later, her phone rang again. It was from Yvonne. She hesitated a little, unsure if she should answer it. After a few tones, she finally answered the call.

"Hello?" she answered hesitantly.

She thought it was Lucas who called, but Yvonne's voice came instead. "Ella? It's me! Did Lucas say anything to you just now?" Yvonne spoke in a hurry and said to her, "Don't listen to him! i just went to the toilet and saw him answering my phone. Did he say anything to you? Don't take it to heart!"

Yvonne knew Lucas disliked Stella. He might have said something bad to her. Hearing Stella's hesitant voice, she guessed at once, "He said something to you just now, didn't he?!"

Yvonne's voice turned cold. She wanted to settle the score with Lucas.

Stella hurriedly said, "He didn't say anything to me. He just said that the training center might be closed because of the tightening policy. Is that true?"

"Let me talk to you about this in person. Do you have time now?" Yvonne was distracted by the training center's matter. She sighed, "I'd like to talk to the others about this in person too Stella could hear the dilemma in her voice and understood her condition, so she did not refuse.
