Before Elnora could even say anything to stop him, the waiter had already left with the suit jacket.

With a smile on her face, Wren continued chatting with Elnora.

Wren said, “That dress you’re wearing is a brand-new couture piece from the chief designer at Cynosure. I noticed it the moment you walked in. It suits your style perfectly.

“It’d be such a shame to hide it under a suit jacket.”

As she spoke, Wren walked a full circle around Elnora, her eyes full of admiration.

She added, “Ms. Finley, you have such a great figure that it makes even a woman like me feel captivated.”

There was nothing malicious in Wren’s eyes. She was just naturally outgoing and easy to approach.

Elnora noticed that Wren’s gaze remained fixed on the gown she was wearing, finding nothing amiss, and she glanced up at Albert.

Albert’s expression was a bit unnatural, and when he saw Elnora looking at him, he feigned an air of nonchalance.

Seeing his reaction, Elnora realized that Albert’s claim about her dress being ripped was just him making things up.

She didn’t call him out on it, though, just looked away from him and kept chatting with Wren.

Suddenly, there was a commotion not far away.

Elnora glanced over and saw Arnetta shove Stella, sending her stumbling right into a waiter carrying a tray of drinks.

As she fell, Stella accidentally stepped on her dress, and it slipped down a little.

Stella was wearing a strapless cocktail dress today.

As she fell, her nude-colored pasties peeked out, barely visible.

There were plenty of people watching the spectacle, but no one stepped in to intervene.

Wren watched the commotion, her brows furrowing as she said in a low voice, “Arnetta’s condition is getting worse.”

After saying that, she recalled the connection between Stella and Albert and quietly whispered to Elnora, “This isn’t the first time something like this has happened. Let’s move somewhere else.”

As she spoke, Wren linked arms with Elnora, ready to lead her away from here.

But Elnora’s gaze stayed fixed on Stella, her brows furrowing.

Albert was standing nearby, chatting with others, but he didn’t spare Stella a glance.

Meanwhile, Stella’s pleading eyes were glued to him.

Everyone started looking their way, following Stella’s gaze.

Albert, noticing that Elnora was also looking at him, curled the corner of his lips into a smile and said softly to her, “Why are you staring at me?”

Elnora shifted her gaze away from him, glanced at Stella, and said, “You should get her out of here first.”

Albert frowned, his eyes flashing with annoyance.

He scoffed, “Ms. Finley, are you out of your mind or something?”

Elnora ignored his mood and said coolly, “This is getting rather awkward. After all, she is still a member of the company.”

Albert snorted. “Her own family is the one messing with her. What does that have to do with me?”

As he spoke, Albert wrapped his arm around Elnora’s waist and pulled her to his side, his tone carrying a hint of irritation as he said, “If you’re tired and want to rest, I’ll take you back.”

Seeing him act like this, Elnora’s brows furrowed slightly.

Albert lowered his voice, leaned in close, and whispered in her ear, “Ms. Finley, are you trying to put me in a tough spot?

“The chief editor from the Port City media is here tonight. If you push me out there, are you trying to make me the talk of the tabloids tomorrow for all the wrong reasons?”

Hearing that, Elnora replied, “It’s not like this is your first time making headlines. You should be used to it by

now.”

Albert let out a mocking laugh. “But right now, I only want to make headlines with you.”

Elnora looked up at him, lips pressed together in silence.

To everyone watching, Albert and Elnora whispering together looked extra close, like a couple sharing secrets.

It was as if Albert was sweet-talking his wife, trying to calm her down before she lost her temper.

Stella’s embarrassment on one side and Elnora’s intimate moment with her husband on the other were like night and day, two totally different worlds, though they were only a few steps apart.

All eyes fell on Elnora, each gaze tinged with a hint of envy, while people also sighed inwardly, thinking that Elnora truly had her ways.

Not long ago, because of Stella, Albert left Elnora behind at the wedding.

But now, in just a short time, Albert was completely ignoring his old flame, all for Elnora.

Chapter 610

Right now, Stella was lying on the floor, and no one bothered to help her up.

Arnetta was acting crazy, grabbing Stella by the hair and beating her.

Belinda, Arnetta’s mother, just stood by, watching the whole mess unfold. She only stepped in after Arnetta had slapped Stella several times.

She said, “That’s enough, Arnetta! If you keep acting out like this, I’ll have you sent straight to the hospital.”

Arnetta finally backed off, but couldn’t help tossing one last insult at Stella.

She said, “You really think you can turn yourself into a princess? An illegitimate child is always illegitimate. You’re never going to be good enough for the spotlight.

“I’ve told you before, don’t show your face in front of me. Next time I see you, I’ll smack you again.”

Stella kept quiet, head down, just quietly crying.

Belinda took Arnetta away, and as she passed by Albert and Elnora, she gave Albert a slight nod as a greeting.

Arnetta’s gaze fell upon Elnora, and a smile appeared on her lips.

She said, “No wonder you don’t want to work with me. Ms. Finley, guess you’re pretty ruthless after all.”

Elnora just looked back calmly, not saying a word.

When people heard Arnetta say that, their eyes turned speculative, as if they sensed something shady or scheming was going on.

Meanwhile, some people cast sympathetic glances at Stella.

They thought Stella was in such a miserable state, probably because Elnora and Arnetta were both targeting

her.

Because Arnetta struggled with mental illness, her father’s attitude toward her had grown colder over the
