“Okay,” agreed Stella.
A second later, she had a bad feeling as she thought about Lina.
She was having a hard time telling what was on Lina’s mind. The woman was so hard to read.
In particular, she couldn’t shake off the feeling that Lina had something against her. This was because Lina had sent her alone to the shooting location the last time. She had to run around for hours.

The large banquet hall was full of life.

His guard went up at the sight of her. It hadn’t occurred to him that she would be here.

Matthew took a sip of the champagne before turning to Charlene. He nodded and muttered, “Aunt.”
Compared to his enthusiasm towards Louis, his attitude towards Charlene was relatively cold.
Charlene flashed a fake smile.
“Long time no see. I have been so busy that it feels like years since I last saw you. But I heard your wife is back in town. This is a party. Why didn’t you bring her as your date?”
Matthew was expressionless.
Charlene asked worriedly, “Did you guys have another fight? Why haven’t you made up yet? I saw the news that you were getting a divorce on the Internet. Your marriage doesn’t have to end. Women love romantic men. You can’t treat your wife like you treat your employees. You must be understanding. That solves many marital problems.”
Louis chipped in with a frown, “You are getting a divorce? What could have happened?”
Everyone in the business industry knew that Louis attached great importance to his family.
Before he worked with anyone, he did a background check on the person to make sure all was well at home.
