Simone was also stunned by Leonard's words.
She knew that when it came to people he liked, Leonard had very few boundaries or principles.
But this was taking it too far.
When he had been good to Aurora, at least she'd occasionally agreed to be his date, have dinner with him, or celebrate his birthday, even if she never gave him anything in return.
It was better than nothing; at least there was some response.
But Stella and Leonard were sworn enemies, and Leonard himself had been the one to destroy her hand.
Anyone with half a brain knew Stella would never forgive him.
Aurora might not have had any real feelings for Leonard and had been using him all along.
But if Leonard had to choose between Aurora and Stella, Simone would much rather he choose Aurora.
There was a deep-seated hatred between Stella and Leonard!
As Simone's thoughts drifted, she heard Leonard's voice again.
"In a little while, send another shipment through."
Rhett was at a loss for words.
Sending another shipment through a route that he knew was compromised? Wasn't that just openly inviting her to steal it?
It was so out of character that it had to be a trap. Stella probably wouldn't dare to intercept the cargo again, fearing that they had set something up for her.
"Understood, sir," Rhett replied.
Just as Rhett was about to leave, Leonard stopped him again.
"Have you found that specialist I asked you to look for?"
Specialist?
Simone's head snapped toward Leonard. "Why are you suddenly looking for a specialist? Are you sick, Leonard?"
Rhett's expression was a bit odd. "Uh... Mr. Lerman isn't sick."

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....
Can’t wait to see what joshua will do...
Why would the author of this book do that to Stella? Such cruelty!...
So many chapters are incomplete. Missing pages. Hard to get continuity...
