Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 881

Winters was fuming, his voice raised as he tossed the contract at Stella with all his might.

The pages hit Stella in the face before scattering around her.

One of the edges even nicked Stella's nose, leaving a small, stinging cut.

She stumbled backwards, met with gasps of shock from those around.

Winters made to advance, but an employee, sensing trouble, called security, and they dragged Winters away.

Stella and Margaret retreated to their office under the curious and questioning gazes of their colleagues.

As soon as the blinds were drawn, Stella let loose a torrent of curses.

"What a mess! Serves him right for getting reported. Ruining himself and trying to drag others down with him, what an idiot!"

She was in full rant mode when the office door opened.

The intern came in holding the contract that had struck Stella.

"Where should I put this?"

Seeing the contract made Stella feel humiliated, as if the intern was there to rub salt in her wound. Her expression soured.

"Who let you in? Get out!" she snapped.

"It was me who asked him to bring it in. Calm down," Margaret interjected, taking the contract from him.

The intern vanished in an instant.

Stella grabbed a mirror to examine the small cut on her nose, irritated.

"Why'd you make him pick up the contract?"

"What if The Starlight Group had already signed it?"

Margaret flipped through the contract quickly, Stella's hopes lighting up momentarily.

She leaned in eagerly, only to be disappointed.
