Abby reasoned, "He's a family patriarch, after all. Sometimes his aura is naturally intense. Just one look from him terrifies me too. It's normal that you find him different now.
"The dynamic between friends and lovers is entirely different. When he wasn't your boyfriend, he had no right to be jealous, let alone interfere in your affairs. Now that your relationship has changed, things obviously won't be the same."
At this point, Abby looked at Stella with utmost seriousness.
"Star, you aren't getting cold feet about marrying him, are you?"
Stella shook her head. "No, not that. I just feel his words have been a bit extreme lately, and I wonder if it's the illness affecting him..."
Just as Stella was about to say more, a light knock sounded on the office door.
The secretary's voice came from outside. "Ms. Cameron, the meeting is ready. You can head over now."
Stella acknowledged her and turned to Abby. "I'm going to the meeting first."
Abby nodded. "Alright."
...
At the meeting, everything went exactly as Stella had predicted.
Upon seeing the proposal, the shareholders were full of praise.
"It's flawless and hits the mark perfectly! Forget the Chapmans, even I'm tempted just reading this!"
"Although we have to provide some initial support to the Chapmans, the future control of this partnership rests in our hands. It's a guaranteed win!"
Someone looked at Skyler Williams with a satisfied smile.

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...
