Chapter 174 A Battle of Wits

Despite feeling completely helpless, I tried to appear unconcerned. It was clear what Stella was trying to

tell me.

However, I couldn’t let on how I felt. I realized she had been probing me ever since we first met.

She seemed surprised by my indifference. “You don’t seriously think this is normal, do you?”

I sipped my coffee, but it tasted bitter. “I wasn’t born rich, so I don’t understand your world. Though I’m a

businesswoman, I’d never force anyone against their will, especially not my family.”

know why they weren’t married if he loved her. I doubted she could answer me!

“Let’s change the subject. We’re getting off track,” Stella chuckled. “Do you know why I’ve been so

I was taken aback. “I won’t get to meet her, will I?”

“I bet you will since you have a project with ATL Empire. Not to mention the striking resemblance to that

woman,” Stella remarked. “Miracles can happen, you know.”

I waved her goodbye before getting into my car. Her words left me unsettled.
