“Remember, since Stevie arranged this, you’d better give it your all. Understood?”
“Of course.” Eloise nodded.
The car hummed smoothly along the road. Just as they neared Stella’s studio, a sudden downpour began, accompanied by gusty winds.
Stella’s eyes widened in alarm, a realization striking her.
“Step on it! Hurry!”
Sensing the anxiety in her voice, Matthew accelerated, casting her a puzzled look.
“What’s the matter? Is something urgent?”
“My latest designs are hanging on the balcony. I can’t let them get ruined by the rain,” Stella explained, her brows knitting together.
“Miley’s models are scheduled for fittings. If those garments get wet, it’ll set back the whole project.”

Despite her mounting worries, Stella felt helpless.
Matthew reassured her, “Don’t worry; we’re almost there.”
Within a matter of minutes, Matthew pulled into the studio parking lot. No sooner had the car come to a stop than Stella leapt out and dashed into her workspace, the rain intensifying over her.
Without a moment’s hesitation, she hurried to the balcony.
Grasping the clothes rack, she attempted to pull it inside. But the rack was heavy, and the tempestuous weather was no ally. Despite several tugs, it remained immovable.
Grimacing, Stella pulled with all her might. A sharp pain suddenly shot through her finger.

She let out a hiss, instinctively retracting her hand. But there was a cut on her finger, and blood was beginning to trickle.
Matthew appeared just in time to notice the small wound.
“Go inside. I’ve got this,” he stated, his voice tinged with authority.
Stella nodded and retreated into the room.
Where she had struggled with the rack, Matthew reeled it in effortlessly.
Once inside, he shut the balcony door, sealing out the turbulent weather.
The room instantly quieted down.
After inspecting the garments, Matthew turned to Stella.
“Rest easy; they’re still dry.”
