She knew Vivien was a hard nut to crack. She was aware of how Vivien was so obsessed with Matthew.
However, she never expected this woman to get someone to keep an eye on Matthew round the clock.
Matthew wasn’t Vivien’s. He had a wife, for Pete’s sake.
“Have you lost your tongue?” Vivien’s eyes were filled with contempt and jealousy now.
Her latest question jarred Stella to her senses.
She didn’t want to get into it with Vivien today, so she swallowed the words that had come to the tip of her tongue.
“ALL I have ever done is do my job as an employee,” she repeated.
She took a deep breath and added for good measure, “Besides, I’m a married woman. I hope you won’t misunderstand me anymore.”
Hearing this, Vivien was stunned.
She put on her sunglasses again to hide her shock and embarrassment.
She wouldn’t have been so threatened if she had known Stella was married.
But married women cheat on their husbands all the time, didn’t they?
Thinking of this, Vivien grew worried again.
“How do I know your husband isn’t a cuckold and you only married him for gains? Now that you met a better man, wouldn’t you risk it all just to have him?”

Matthew was every woman’s dream. He ticked all the boxes. Rich? Check!
Handsome? Check! Influential? Double check!
Stella decided to play mute.
She realized that no matter what she said, Vivien would still think she was out to get Matthew. What was the point of arguing with her then?
Vivien took Stella’s silence for acquiesce.
She mounted pressure.
“If you want to prove to me that you have nothing to do with Matthew, quit your job immediately.”
“You are free to believe whatever you want to. The fact remains that I have nothing to do with him asides work,” Stella explained calmly.
“As for your suggestion, I will think it over.”
Vivien was exasperated at her perfunctory words.
