Stella’s face heated up, a bit embarrassed, but her rationality still made her reach out and hold Nathaniel’s hand as he shifted
gears.
After touching his warm skin, she immediately withdrew her hand and moved her body away.
“No need.”
“What did you say?”
Nathaniel’s voice was chillingly cold, he thought to himself: Could it be that she enjoys being begged by her ex–boyfriend to get back together?
“Your appearance will surely embarrass Jack in front of everyone. He is a person who cares a lot about his reputation, he will definitely retaliate against you!”
“I heard that although Dalla Technology Group is a new company, it’s hard to get in. It wasn’t easy for you to get this job, and it’s not good for you to be entangled with Jack.”
“And the people who advised me to let you go didn’t really want to help me, they just wanted to watch the drama. Even if you really showed up, they would be very picky about you. You don’t need to compare yourself with Jack.”

Stella looked carnestly at Nathaniel, her bright eyes sparkling.
Nathaniel’s grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly. Although he didn’t say anything, his expression softened.
Stella looked at him in silence, thinking he was angry. However, she also felt that he had every right to be angry.
She tactfully got out of the car, stood outside and waved, “Mr. Beaumont, be careful on the road, goodbye.”
After saying that, she headed towards the company.
When Nathaniel came back to his senses, Stella had already walked away, leaving him only a slender silhouette.
He seemed lost in thought for a moment, then stepped on the
gas.
Stella just stepped into the lobby of the building, and the gathered crowd instantly turned their eyes towards her.
At this time of day, everyone usually can’t wait to rush into the office, but today they seem quite leisurely.
Stella sighed deeply in her heart, walked straight to the elevator, and just saw Christina constantly winking at her.
For a moment, she didn’t understand, thinking to herself: Could it be that if I don’t bring Nathaniel, they won’t let me work?
At this moment, Sandra’s voice sounded from behind Stella.

“Good morning, Stella. You’re finally here. Jack has been waiting for you for a long time.”
A wave of irritation surged in Stella’s heart, she didn’t want to deal with Sandra, so she quickened her pace towards the elevator.
Jack shouted, “Stella! Stella!”
He kept calling Stella’s name. If he continued, there would be more than just these onlookers.
Stella turned around in anger: “Jack, have you had enough?”
Jack slowly approached, dressed in designer clothes that were quite eye–catching. As for whether they were genuine or not, Stella couldn’t tell.
But this kind of Jack gives people an illusion of success in his career, and there are already two young girls next to him who can’t help but stare at him.

“Stella, I knew you were lying to me. Your marriage license is fake, isn’t it? You haven’t changed at all. Don’t ever lie to people after you marry me; otherwise, everyone will laugh at us.”
Jack had a smile on his face and his tone was full of indulgence, but the look in his eyes towards Stella was a warning.
He’s pretending again.

Stella thought: Does he really think he’s that charming?

Ever since seeing through Jack’s selfish hypocrisy, Stella found his tricks increasingly ridiculous.
She took a step back, keeping a distance from Jack, instantly turning Jack’s smile into an awkward one.
“Jack, what part of you is worth me deceiving?”
“You…” Jack gritted his teeth.
“Jack, let me say it again, I’m married. I hope you behave yourself! Harassing an ex–girlfriend is really disgraceful! And stop using me to maintain your image!”
Stella knew that Jack was very concerned about his reputation and absolutely couldn’t tolerate being humiliated in public.
As expected, Jack’s face turned ashen, so angry that he couldn’t control the puffing of his cheeks.
But he didn’t turn and leave, instead, he was closing in on Stella
step by step.
He gritted his teeth and whispered, “Stella, you spread rumors about me to my colleagues, causing me to miss my promotion. Don’t think you’ll get away with this!”
Stella scoffed, “Spreading rumors? Aren’t I stating facts? Whether you get promoted or not is a matter of your ability, what does it have to do with me?”

Hearing this, Jack flew into a rage, his hands clenched into fists.
But he still endured it, even smiling as he looked at others.
“I’m sorry. Stella has been emotionally unstable and often talks nonsense because I don’t have the money to treat her mother’s. illness. I hope everyone won’t blame her usually.”
Saying this, Jack didn’t forget to raise his eyebrows at Stella flirtatiously.
Stella sensed, he was planning to defame her!
“Jack! I’m perfectly normal! And we’re not married, I don’t need you to pay for my mother’s treatment!”
“Look, here she comes again,” Jack sighed with deep affection.
and are “Everyone knows we’ve been in love for three years about to get married, right? Everyone also knows that you’ve been wearing my things for three years and refuse to change, right?”
Everyone was looking at Stella, accusing her one after another.
“Stella, you’re too ungrateful. Jack has proposed to you time and again. Yet, you still talk nonsense.”
“I see her mental condition is really not good. How can the people at her company still let her work? Aren’t they afraid of major problems?”

“Enough, Stella, just reconcile with Jack already. You’re making a fuss, it’s not only bothering you, but it’s also bothering us.”
“We are also doing this for your own good, we won’t harm you. Where else can you find a husband
