Chapter 2076
Keegan fell silent for a while before sending a message: [I'll take you there tomorrow.]
Stella laughed and replied: [You're still pretending to have amnesia. Control yourself. I
think Marshall will also be there tomorrow. You shouldn't show up.] 'If it wasn't because
Marshall had tricked me the night before, then there must be another explanation Luanna
had come back from the dead. Perhaps it is a trap meant to lure me there.' Stella thought.
Stella was not afraid of any accidents since they were going as a group, and she firmly
believed that Marshall's target was not her. Even if it were a plot, he would not do
anything to her under the current circumstances.
However, the idea of Keegan going made Stella more worried. After all, he was still
pretending to have amnesia. While his acting might fool the average person, Marshall
would not be so easily deceived.
Unable to persuade Stella otherwise, Keegan eventually agreed.
The office door was knocked on, and Jaylene entered with documents in her arms. She
said warmly, "Stella, these documents need your signature."
Stella put down her phone and said, "Bring them here."

Jaylene placed the documents in front of Stella, her gaze swiftly scanning the
surroundings. She thought, 'The desk is cleaner than her face; not a book in sight, just a
notebook and a pen. The notebook seems to be filled with something as it looks densely
packed.'
She moved closer, tiptoeing to take a peek. She was shocked to discover that the
notebook was not filled with writing but with doodles of little turtles.
Then, Jaylene glanced at Stella's computer screen, which had a Minesweeper game open
and still running. There were also several eaten fruits on the side table, with several pits
on the tissue.
Jaylene got annoyed and thought, 'Mom, why did you warn me to be wary of such a loser?

Stella did not rush to sign but flipped through the pages one by one. Impatient, Jaylene
urged and said, "Stella, can you hurry up? I have other things to handle."
Stella did not look up and answered, "Ms. Saun, I hope you can be professional in the
office and call me Ms. Hall."
Jaylene frowned. "Stella, there’s no one else here. Do we really need to be so formal?”
Stella looked up at Jaylene and said, "I prefer everything to be by the book. As long as
we're in this company, we have a superior-subordinate relationship. Business is business,

personal is personal. This way, if anything happens, our relationship won't make people
think I'm being unfair.
Stella added, "Darcie also asks you to call her Ms. Arnold in the office, right? It's the same
principle."
Jaylene clenched her fists, clearly not convinced. It was similar to when Darcie had
reprimanded her; she did not argue. Instead, she pressed her lips together reluctantly
before saying, "I understand, Ms. Hall.’
Stella nodded. After she finished reviewing the documents, she returned them to Jaylene
and said, "I can't sign this."
Jaylene frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella explained, "Your product testing report hasn't come out yet. I can't sign this."
Jaylene argued, "The samples were sent for testing after the holiday, but this process
usually takes about ten working days. Just sign it now, and we'll start production. The
testing report will be out by next Tuesday, and we can just stamp it then.’
Stella questioned, "What if the test results are not up to standard? Who will bear the loss
for the unusable products produced?"
Jaylene got a bit angry and said, "This formula is based on customer requirements, with
just two changes from the previous one, using very safe materials. How could it fail? We're
just following the procedure."
She continued, "If you sign now, I can start production. By the time production is nearly
complete, the testing report will be out, and we can deliver on time to avoid the penalty
for delay."
Stella calmly replied, ’Knowing the time constraints, why didn't you inform the other party
when signing the contract?"
Jaylene spoke firmly, "This is how it's always been done for bespoke perfumes. There has
never been a problem."
Stella leaned back and stated plainly, "The past is the past, but now it's my signature. If
anything goes wrong, it's on me. I like to play it safe and steer clear of trouble. Let's just
wait for the test results."
