The Heiress With Seven Secret Identies (Stella Shaw) novel Chapter 236

Chapter 236 Are You Two Dating?

He let out a low groan, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Her strike wasn’t overly forceful, but as someone trained in combat, she knew exactly where hit to inflict pain.

“Who exactly are you?”

“Why are you targeting Stella? Don’t you know she’s protected by all the top elites in Azure P City? You chased her and put her in danger–do you think all those powerful figures are dead

At her words, Shane roughly figured out who she was.

If she isn’t with the Moore, Cross, or Shaw families, then she is one of Stella’s loyal supporters.

From what he knew, plenty of Azure Peak’s most influential people had her back.

Anyone who bullied her would face immediate boycotts from them, so no one dared to smea her maliciously anymore.

“We don’t have any bad intentions.”

Tess let out a humorless laugh, furious. “No bad intentions? Do you have any idea how dangerous that chase was? If anything had happened to her, do you know how devastating a loss that would be?”

“I know perfectly well.”

A prodigy like Stella, and a philanthropist too.

Losing her would be a crippling loss for multiple industries, and it would snuff out hope for countless poor people.

“You knew that, and you still did this to her?”

“We only wanted to ask her for help.”

“Help with what?”

Tess seethed. Who asked for help like that?

“I can’t say.”

At his reply, Tess kicked him again.

“Don’t get so worked up.” Frederick quickly handed her a cup of milkshake.

“Have a sip; it’s sweet.”

Tess took a long sip and nodded in satisfaction.

“Can you let me go now?”

“You still haven’t told me what you need her help with.”

“Miss, I’m doing this for your own good. My men will be here soon, and you might not get if you wait any longer.”

Tess chuckled. “Are you threatening me?”

“I don’t want to hurt Sister Stella’s friends.”

Frederick and Tess exchanged a look, both stunned.

“Sister Stella?”

“She’s my cousin. It’s not wrong to call her that, right?”

Tess and Frederick stared at each other, completely confused.

Tess nudged his arm with her elbow, raised an eyebrow, and whispered close to his ear, “Is he one of your relatives?”

He leaned in right next to her ear and murmured, “We don’t have rude relatives like this.”

Tess felt a tickle on her neck and stepped back involuntarily.

Could he not tell his lips were practically pressed to my ear when he spoke?

“When will you try to find her next?”

“Our approach was too forceful last time; we scared Stella. We promise to be more polite next time.”

“I asked when.” Tess couldn’t help raising her voice.

“When Stella returns to Azure Peak University next week.”

Just then, a subordinate came in and whispered a report to Frederick.

“Let me go. I won’t hold what happened today against you.”

“A good impression, huh?”

Shane thought back to the previous chase and curled his lip into a cold smirk.

It wasn’t me who left the bad impression.

Stella is reasonable; she won’t blame me for it.

“I’ll trust you this once. If you dare hurt Stella, I’ll make you regret it.”

“Don’t worry. We’re on the same side.”

“Who’s on your side?”

Tess and Frederick left in their car.

Moments later, a group of men rushed in.

Shane’s tone was calm and steady. “Come over and untie me.”

“Mr. Corbin, are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

“Do you know who those people were?”

Shane stood up and rubbed his sore wrist. “No one. I was just bored and testing if your security. skills had gotten rusty.”

The head bodyguard was speechless.

All the bodyguards fell silent.

“You passed the test. Let’s go.”

“Mr. Corbin, will we get a raise?”

Shane stopped and glanced at them indifferently. “What do

you

think?”

“We passed the test, so our skills are good.”

“Get out of here.”
