Chapter 184

“That’s good,” Stella said. Though she said it was good, she sounded somewhat depressed.

“What’s wrong? Why do you look sad?” Brian asked, holding her face in his hands.

Stella bit her lip. “Brian, now that Sharon is better, will she ask you to marry Jessica?”

She didn’t want him to marry Jessica now. Her baby clearly wasn’t Brian’s, so why should Jessica be the

one who married him?

“You don’t want me to do that?” he asked.

Stella nodded. “Yeah. I want to be with you.”

Her words made Brian’s heart skip a beat. He pinched her chin and said, “If you don’t want a divorce, you have to obey me from now on

He kissed her, and she felt his familiar and forceful gestures once more.

Brian was a good kisser. Soon, Stella was caught up in their passion and gently wrapped her arms around his neck in response. Brian’s eyes darkened, his gaze fathomless.

The next day, Stella went downstairs, feeling refreshed. She then went to the kitchen to watch Yvonne make breakfast. Yvonne was cooking some salmon.

Stella said, “Yvonne, don’t just fry the salmon for Brian. Smash the salmon, add some vegetables and seasonings, and make them into fish cakes.”

She had spent a lot of effort looking up recipes just to get Brian to eat vegetables.

“But Mr. Foley doesn’t eat vegetables.” Yvonne replied

“That’s why we have to make them into fish cakes. If you add chopped vegetables to them, it’ll taste much better, Stella instructed Yvonne.

Yvonne said with a smile. “That’s genius, Mrs. Foley.”

Tve taken great pains just to get him to eat some vegetables, Stella complained with a smile, fondness. lacing her tone.

At this moment, Carrie walked in, looking arrogant. “I didn’t expect you to have moved back to Tarovian Terrace. I wasted my time going to Yolvencrest Estate

Stella heard her voice and walked out of the kitchen. Just like that, their eyes met.

Came knew what she was there for, so she said in exasperation, “Since I’m here, I’m just going to say this. I’m sorry, okay? Can I go home now?”

“What makes you think apologizing is enough? Stella crossed her arms across her chest. She looked at Carrie with a smile.

“You stole my draft and new products, causing Starlight Couture to suffer losses. You have to compensate for them. I’ve already talked to my partner and we’ve decided that you have to pay 50

thousand dollars.”

When Carrie heard that she had to pay 50 thousand dollars, her face turned cold. “Stella, are you trying to blackmail me? You have some nerve to ask for 50 thousand dollars in one go. Your ridiculous designs

aren’t worth that much!”

“Why not? Everchange seems to be selling their new products very well,” Stella retorted. Those were her designs, after all.

“That has nothing to do with me! Alice was the one who sold it. Ask her for money instead! But she’s already dead, so I’m afraid you can only replace her when you kick the bucket.”

“If you don’t pay the money, we’ll file a lawsuit. After all, you’ve already publicly admitted that you framed me. If we file a lawsuit, you’ll lose for sure.

Carrie couldn’t believe that Stella wanted to sue her. Her face turned cold “Stella, how are you supposed to sue me when you’re penniless? Don’t think you can scare me with some empty threats.”

“She may not have money, but I do. I’ll hire a lawyer to

Carrie turned around in shock. Brian was leaning on the stairs, wearing a black nightrobe. He looked

indifferent.

“Carrie, you have no right to cause trouble here,” Brian said.

As he walked down the stairs, the sunlight illuminated his face. He looked as handsome as if he was a

creation God had created himself. Stella felt her heart pounding at the sight of him.

Meanwhile, Carrie’s face was ashen. She asked, “Brian, what are you doing here?”
