Xenia did not take it.
Instead, she asked Stella, ’What do you want me to do?"
Stella shifted her gaze to the photo. "You saw it too. You looked very similar to my mother. Albert did not bump into
you by accident; it's because of your face that resembles my mother a lot.’
Xenia pursed her lips. "He's still in love with your mom, huh?"
Stella sneered. "You're wrong. He's in love with nobody. He's selfish, and the person he'll only ever love is himself."
She looked back up at Xenia and continued, "I want you to get the evidence of Albert and Hylda causing my mom’s
death. I want them to pay the highest price for their actions and turn their lives into a living hell.’
Xenia was shocked by the hatred she saw in Stella's eyes as she said that. Then, after pausing for a while, Xenia
asked, "H-how can I help you?"
The expression on Stella's face turned calmer. 'Til let you know how...'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella thought about something when she was about to leave. "Your sister is still young. You should let her continue
studying and sit for the college entrance exam next year. I have a younger brother who's pretty good at studying,
and he can be your sister's tutor if needed. A girl should be more knowledgeable. She'll have more options in life if
she's well-educated, and she'll know how to protect herself too."
Xenia said thankfully, "I'll talk to her about it."
Xenia immediately called Keegan after parting ways with Stella and told him everything that Stella had told her.
Keegan listened to her and said flatly, "Just do as she said."
Aldor commented after Keegan hung up, "Mrs. Kane is better than you in making use of other people and reading
somebody else's mind.’
Keegan was speechless.
What Stella said to Xenia was not entirely true. Indeed, Albert had bad intentions, but he was not the one who hired
someone to molest Xenia's sister.
However, the timing of what happened was just too coincidental. So, Stella faked the call history and misled Xenia
into thinking that what she said was true.
Instead of just using money or a favor, Stella figured it would be better to manipulate her into thinking that Albert
ruined her life to get Xenia to work with her. Besides, she got to use Xenia's sister as leverage too.
Stella knew very well that an ally could only be trusted if the same goal was shared. She held firmly on those two
points. Xenia would find it hard to turn Stella down even if Keegan did not talk to her before.
Aldor knew that Stella was a very vengeful person, yet she chose to divorce Keegan peacefully back then. So, he
thought that she was being very kind to his boss.
Keegan glared at him, "What are you talking about? Stella is a very innocent and kind person."
Aldor kept quiet.
He thought to himself. 'You would still be together with her if you knew about this earlier.'
Keegan put the documents aside and said, "Get someone to send a bouquet of flowers to the set. I don't want too
many roses. Get a few stalks of every flower and wrap them nicely.’
Aldor thought to himself again. Tm sure Mrs. Kane complained that the roses looked too ugly. Otherwise, I'm sure

Yolanda disappeared for a day, and she got to the set on time after that.
No one knew if her company lectured her or if Stuart gave her a good scolding, but she started behaving a lot
better after returning.
After shooting for three days, the male lead of this show, Jorge Goldwyn, finally finished his work and joined the
production.
Jorge was in his forties and won the best actor award three times. His role in the drama was a policeman in charge
of the poisoning case, and he had a lot of scenes with Stella.
He was the most popular actor that Stella met after beginning her acting career.
Jorge was a very humble man with no airs and graces on the set. If there were younger actors asking for his advice,
he would be more than happy to help them.
Leighton did not frequently appear in the drama, so his schedule was more flexible. He was going to fly to another
city for another job. Stuart thought that his crew was not complete when the pre-production party was held, so he
wanted to organize another gathering on the weekend before Leighton left.
He chose the same hotel where the charity gala was held previously.
Everybody in the crew had arrived, and about twenty of them were there.
All of them were talking in the private lounge, and it was very noisy.
