Chapter 247
When Stella opened it, she saw a white dance dress. The fabric felt very expensive, and the cutting was very elegant. She knew it was worth a lot at first glance. Subconsciously, she said, “This is too expensive” “If you don’t take it, I will throw it away!” Yvonne interrupted and said, displeased, “How can everyone accept it but not you?” Stella’s eyes flickered, but she remained silent. During the break, she glanced at the presents the other colleagues received subconsciously. Although all were of very high-quality, it was obvious that hers should be the most expensive one.
Yvonne seemed to always have an unconcealed preference for her, whether she was Stella or Ella. She always took good care of her.
Her eyes were watery as she placed the dress Yvonne gave her carefully into her luggage.
The moment she turned around, her eyes met a pair of eyes which were sizing her up. This was not the first time she had bumped into Joyce at such a time. Joyce looked at her sullenly. “Why are you here?” Stella did not want to bother with her. “I should be asking you, why do you always appear behind me?”
After she said that she wanted to go past her and leave, Joyce grabbed her arm. “Don’t you dare try to change the subject. Why do you show up in places like this every time? Have you discovered something?” Her eyes flashed with ruthlessness for a moment. Seeing that, Stella frowned and shook off her hand. “What have you done here that is so unseemly that you need me to find out?”
“You!”
Joyce choked and said indignantly, “Just mind your own business! Aren’t you just relying on your background and connections? Now that the training institute is going to close down, I’ll see where you can go to show off!” “I don’t have anywhere I could show off at!” Stella was too lazy to explain to this kind of person. “Won’t you become unemployed as well?” “I am different from you. I rely on my capabilities, so I can live anywhere! But you are different. A person like you, who depends on connections, has no place to go after the institute closes down. Oh, wait, I was wrong!” She covered her mouth and sniggered. “You can survive with connections in this era. Perhaps a person like you is very good at flattering people. Are you going to follow Yvonne wherever she goes?”
