Looking at the scroll in her hand, Stella repeated firmly and calmly, “I see Matthew as my boss, and nothing else. Even if we both get divorced, there’s no chance that we can be together. So, get that thought out of your head.”
Miley stuck to her guns.
She patted Stella on the shoulder and said, “Ella, you are an amazing young woman. I know sometimes you might feel that you’re not cut out for love, but I need you to know that you deserve to be loved. A failed marriage is not the end of the world. One day, you might just meet your Mr. Right.”
“Aww! Thank you.” Stella looked at her with misty eyes, her heart melting.
Miley brought Maverick up again.

Back at the venue of the art exhibition, Matthew was in a meeting room on the second floor.
He was all alone.
Fernando knocked on the door and came in, “Mr. Clark, I’ve done the investigation.”
Matthew raised his eyes, looking all serious and cold.
“The power failure was caused by a sudden surge after a rectification in the circuit on the nearby block. No one tampered with it.”
At this report, Matthew felt a little relieved.
“That’s all for today. You may leave,” he ordered.
After Fernando left, Matthew swiveled his chair.
Through the window, he watched as the staff cleaned up the exhibition hall in preparation for closing.
His eyes narrowed as he thought about his conversation with Stella nearly an hour ago.
The manner in which she spoke showed that she liked Tobin a lot.
Conflicting feelings swirled inside Matthew at this moment.
He couldn’t wrap his head around why he just gave Stella his favorite painting as a so-called gift. Surely, it couldn’t be just because she was a fan, could it?
The next day, Stella met an expected surprise when she got to work.
