Luna’s desk in the office and been cleared.
She stared at the empty desk for a while before turning away to walk over to hers.
She had just dropped her handbag on its surface when a woman in a long dress with shoulder-length hair walked into the office. She looked so gentle and dignified.
Stella’s eyes narrowed a little when she saw a strange face.
The woman stopped in front of Stella, smiled brightly, and introduced herself.
“Hello, I’m the head of the PR department, Lina Castro. Are you new here?”

Stella replied with a smile, “Hello, Lina. I have heard so much about you. My name is Stella Anderson. I’m Mr. Clark’s private PR officer.”
After saying that, Stella looked down and found that the woman’s ankle was still wrapped in gauze.
No wonder she sensed that Lina was walking a little funny just now.
Out of courtesy, Stella drew out a chair and said, “Please take a seat.”
Lina thanked her and took her seat.

“I trust you might be wondering why you are just seeing me for the first time even though I’m the department head. Well, I had an accident and was placed on bed rest.” Lina was wearing a smile now.
However, she didn’t look very friendly.
After a pause, she continued, “While I was away, word got to me that you were of great help to Mr. Clark in solving many crises and that you were quite good at what you do.”
Stella said politely, “You flatter me. I’m not that good. I still have a lot to learn.”
“Give yourself some credit, will you? There’s no point acting so modest. I heard that Mr. Clark personally gave you a bonus, so that means he appreciates your work.” Lina’s tone wasn’t hateful, but her stare-down of Stella was.
There was no change in Stella’s expression.
She sensed something strange, but she still wasn’t sure if Lina mentioned the bonus because she admired her or had intentions to pick on her. She just nodded and said politely, “It was nice meeting you.
If you don’t mind, I’d like to get to work.”
“Hold on. I was actually hoping you could do me a favor.” Lina cut to the chase.
Stella paused.
Lina said apologetically, “As you can see, my ankle hasn’t healed up yet. I can only work at my table for now. Walking about to get things done is going to be a difficult chore for me. Can you be of assistance to me?”
Stella replied, “I have to get Mr. Clark’s permission first. After all, I was hired to work only on his PR affairs. I hope you don’t mind.”
“Oh, you are so considerate. Go ahead, please.” Lina sounded as willing as possible, but the reluctance on her face and her fake smile suggested otherwise.
