Chapter 66
The door slammed shut with a loud bang. Stella couldn’t surmise what Roger was feeling from his
expressions. She followed him quietly into the living room and sat on the sofa.
Roger had been hanging his head low all the while. Then suddenly, he raised up his head and turned to
his sister.
“Do you like Professor Hall, Sis?” he asked.
“What did you just say?!” Stella responded in shock. Roger said nothing. He sat next to his sister and
leaned on her shoulder. He was about six feet tall, and when he leaned on his sister like that, he looked
like a big bear leaning against a little rabbit for support. “What kind of man do you like, Sis?” he asked
again. Stella realized then that Roger had been overthinking. “Don’t worry, Roger,” she assured
him.”There’s absolutely nothing going on between your professor and me.” “It didn’t look like Professor
Hall thought the same way, though… “Don’t you remember what he said?” Stella asked with a smile. “He
merely thought that I looked pretty, that’s all. Your sister isn’t so irresistible that any man who sees me
would fall for me, you know?” “Well, I don’t care what other people think,” Roger argued earnestly. “To
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme, you’re the prettiest woman in the world!”…
Stella knew that her brother was just flattering her. Nonetheless, those words still cheered her up a lot.
“Don’t worry about all these things, Roger,” she told him. “Just focus on your studies. He’s still your
professor, you know, so you must be respectful. Understood?” “I know all that, but if he really does fancy
you, i definitely won’t forgive him!” replied Roger, who felt a slight headache coming on. “Won’t forgive
him?”countered Stella. “And what will you do, huh? So what if he does like me? It’s not like he’ll ever
make a move.”

Stella sighed, then added, “You said it before, didn’t you? You’re an adult now, and you can’t be brash
and do whatever you want. I know you mean well, but we may not always be able to bear the
consequences of your impulsiveness.”
Roger’s lips quivered. He recalled when he almost hurt Guinevere when he saw Weston accompany her
to the hospital for a maternity check-up. It was his sister who bore the grave consequences of his action.
Stella had been so patient with him. Ever since their parents died, it was her who had been the one to
shoulder all the responsibilities in supporting their family.
Roger closed his eyes. “I’m sorry, Sis,” he said in a trembling voice. “You’ve really been through so much
because of
me »
Stella went back to work as usual. It was as if the appearance of Weston and Guinevere was nothing but
a fading memory. Soon, her life gradually went back to normal.
Yvonne had just got back from a business trip, and the first thing she did was to find Stella. “I heard
Guinevere came here to see you,” she inquired. “Did she give you any trouble?” “No,” Stella shook her
head. “She just invited me to have a cup of coffee with her, and she told me all about the woman who
looked exactly like me.”
“What?!” Yvonne gasped, her expression instantly changing. “What’s wrong with her?! But you’re not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella! How dare she take out her anger for Stella on you!”
Although Yvonne sometimes confused Ella with Stella, she still respected the fact that they were two
different people and made sure not to treat them as if they were the same person. “Don’t worry,” Stella
assured Yvonne. “She hasn’t been back ever since. Besides, after the day she came here, the parents
all lined up to have their children learn dancing with me. I’ve made a lot of money because of her, so I
should be thanking Guinevere if anything!” “I’m glad you look at it that way,” Yvonne sighed in relief. “I
was worried you’d be upset.”
“Why should I be upset about making money? I’m overjoyed!”
Yvonne laughed.
“Well, you’re in luck again today,” Yvonne continued. “There’s something else that might cheer you up
even more.”
“Really?”
“Yeah! We just launched a new private tutoring service. You’ll be able to make double or even triple the
money you make teaching classes at the training center. You can check it out if you have the time.”
That day, before going home, Stella contacted the person in charge of the private tutoring service right
away. Since Yvonne was the head of the company, she wouldn’t be involved in trivial administerial
matters like this, although she would sometimes help make things much easier for Stella.
