Hearing Makayla’s question, Stella was surprised and didn’t. know how to explain to her what happened in the restaurant.
Makayla had just undergone surgery and couldn’t be stimulated.
“Mrs. Griffin, please don’t get me wrong. We are just talking about cooperation. Mr. Griffin cares about you very much. Knowing that something happened to you, he was so frightened that he trembled.”
Stella tried her best to explain, but Makayla laughed. Perhaps her wound was affected, so she frowned but didn’t get angry.
Makayla said, “You are so frightened. You must be scared by Isaac’s pretense, right?”
“Well…” Stella didn’t know how to answer.
“He did it on purpose. It’s Nate’s fault. He always asks Isaac to deal with business for him. There are many women outside. Isaac tries to hide, and if he can’t, he will play tricks and scare them.” Makayla had gotten used to this.
Stella smiled awkwardly. It turned out that Isaac did it on purpose in the restaurant. It was no wonder that he didn’t do anything excessive even after being hit by her.
However, the name Nate caught Stella’s attention.

She asked, “Nate?”
“He is the boss of the Dalla Technology Group. You don’t
know? He is very mysterious. You are unlucky to work with him because he hates women.” Makayla laughed.
Stella thought, “Nathaniel is right. The boss of the Dalla Technology Group indeed likes men.”
However, she didn’t dare to say this, so she could only smile.
“Mrs. Griffin, we haven’t agreed on cooperation yet. We don’t even know their requirements.”
“Really?” Makayla understood what Stella meant. As she was about to speak, Isaac came in with water.
“Honey, drink some water.”
“Wait a minute. I’m not wearing any clothes. Have you brought me any clothes? My clothes are full of blood, and I can’t wear them anymore,” Makayla said embarrassedly.
“I came here in a hurry and didn’t know…” Isaac said.
Stella took a new set of pajamas from the bag.
She said, “I bought a new set of clothes downstairs just now. It’s soft, and it will be comfortable to wear.”
“Ms. Edwards, you are so considerate. Thank you.” Makayla

pulled the quilt on her chest.

“Mrs. Griffin, have a good rest. I’m leaving first.” Stella turned around and prepared to leave without forcing Isaac to help her because she saved his wife and daughter.
Makayla stopped Stella. “Wait a minute.”
She tugged on Isaac’s sleeve. “Ms. Edwards saved us, but you deliberately made things difficult for her before. Don’t you have anything to say?”
Isaac understood what Makayla meant and walked to Stella.
“Ms. Edwards, I’m sorry. I thought you wanted to win cooperation through unfair means like Sandra, so I deliberately embarrassed you in the restaurant. I didn’t expect you to reject. me, and I can tell that you and your husband have a very good relationship.”
“Well, our relationship is not bad,” Stella said.
She thought, “We are just roommates living together.”
However…
“Mr. Griffin, aren’t you familiar with Sandra?” Stella asked.
“I’m not familiar with her. Our company had cooperated with her uncle before, and her uncle invited us to dinner, but it was she who came, and she… I didn’t expect there would be such a shameless woman.” Isaac was embarrassed.

“Did you give her a bag?”
“What?” Isaac was confused.

“It’s nothing.” Stella immediately understood that Sandra had lied to them, which almost fooled her.
Isaac continued, “The requirements of our boss are not as complicated as you think. If you want to design an opening banquet that he likes, you must understand our industry.
“He hates luxurious banquets. Some companies took advantage of us when they heard that our boss had just returned to the country and was wealthy, so we refused to cooperate with them.
“Remember, you must be professional.”
“Thank you,” Stella said.
Most of the opening banquets of upstart companies were indeed in a luxurious style, and Stella had also thought about it.
Fortunately, Isaac reminded her, and she could rule out a lot of styles.
However, she was not a professional in this industry.
While Stella was thinking, Isaac called out to her.
“By the way, I have a ticket for tomorrow’s science and technology exhibition. It is all about the latest technological

research and development in Cutas. I hope it can help you. Our boss will also go there. If you meet him, you may be inspired.”
Isaac thought, “Our boss has an amazing face, and it will inspire Stella.”
Stella took the ticket in surprise. “Okay, thank you. I’ll go first.”
Makayla said, “Wait a minute. It’s midnight, and it’s dangerous. for you to go back alone. Honey, please send Ms. Edwards back. After all, she saved me and the baby.”
Isaac nodded. “Okay. Ms. Edwards, please.”
Stella checked the time. It was past midnight, and the subway and buses had stopped running, so she didn’t refuse them.
“Thank you,” Stella said.
Isaac sent Stella downstairs to her house. Getting out of the car, Stella waved to the car window and watched Isaac leave.
Thinking that she would participate in the science and
technology exhibition tomorrow, Stella smiled. At least she was
closer to success.
Upstairs, Nathaniel saw Stella coldly.
Nathaniel couldn’t see Stella’s expression clearly, but judging from her light steps, he could tell she was very happy.
It seemed that she had enough fun with Isaac.

Nathaniel put out the cigarette butt and walked out of the study.
Stella quietly entered the door. Suddenly, the lights were on, which made her freeze in place.
She looked at Nathaniel standing in the aisle, frightened by his cold gaze.
“Mr. Beaumont, haven’t you gone to bed?”
“No.” Nathaniel didn’t even look at Stella but walked past her.
As Stella looked at Nathaniel’s tall back, she felt an inexplicable chill and smelled alcohol around him.
Did he drink?
Stella saw Nathaniel standing in front of the wine cabinet, pouring wine. The red wine swayed and splashed on his fingertips.
Seeing that there was half a bottle of red wine left, Stella came back to her senses and grabbed Nathaniel’s arm.
“Why are you drinking so late? Is there anything wrong with work?” Stella asked.
She didn’t want to meddle in Nathaniel’s business, but she had promised Jennifer to take good care of him. Drinking was bad for his body.

Hearing Stella’s words, Nathaniel realized that he had drunk a lot of wine.
He was not an alcoholic and would only drink a little to relax when he was upset.
Thinking of the scene where Stella and Isaac hugged each other and left, he felt like drinking for no reason.
Nathaniel thought that Stella’s acting skills were good. She had just come back from Isaac but cared about him without feeling guilty.
She was so hypocritical.
With cold eyes, Nathaniel nodded perfunctorily and turned around to avoid Stella.
However, Stella put down her bag and poured a glass of water. Putting the glass of water into Nathaniel’s hand, she took the red wine away.
She said, “It’s normal to encounter problems at work. You’re great, and there’s no need to put so much pressure on yourself. Drinking is harmful to your health. Drink some water and go to bed early.”
Looking at the water in his hand, Nathaniel was a little surprised.
This was the first time someone said this to him. Everyone around him felt that it was natural for him to do his best.

Stella felt uncomfortable being stared at by Nathaniel.
Did she talk too much?
Stella decided to end the topic and go to bed.”
“Good night,” she said.
After that, she turned around, but because much blood was drawn from her, she felt dizzy and ran into Nathaniel’s arms.
The water in Nathaniel’s hand splashed all over his shirt. The wet shirt stuck tightly to his body, revealing his abdominal muscles.
Stella instinctively put her hands on Nathaniel’s chest, and his body temperature instantly enveloped her. His slightly drunken breath above her head made her shiver.
“Mr. Beaumont, I…” As she was about to explain, her head was pushed away.
Nathaniel said coldly, “Don’t play tricks.”
Stella was stunned.
By the time she felt better, Nathaniel had returned to his room.
Stella thought, “He is so indifferent.”
Lying on the bed, Stella felt her arm hurt and saw there was a

bruise.
However, thinking that both Makayla and her daughter were safe, she felt that it was worth it.
After a while, Stella fell asleep.

Because she was too tired, she got up late the next morning. When she hurriedly walked out of the room, Nathaniel had left.
Stella quickly ran into the bathroom to wash up but found that the shower in the guest bathroom was broken, so she had to take a bath with warm water in a basin.
On the way, she made a phone call to Harley and told him that she would go to the science and technology exhibition to find inspiration, and Harley agreed.
However, by the time Stella arrived at the science and technology exhibition, the opening ceremony was over, and it seemed that she couldn’t meet Nate, the boss of the Dalla Technology Group.
Stella thought that since she was here, she could walk around and find some inspiration.
Isaac said that their boss preferred professionalism, and this was the most professional place in Cutas.
Stella walked past the booths. Seeing new technologies, she would ask about them to see if they could be used in her plan.

After a while, she wanted to go to the restroom, but the exhibition hall was so big that she couldn’t find it after walking
for five minutes.
Fortunately, Stella saw a service robot in the exhibition hall.
“Hello, how can I help you?” The robot asked.
“Where’s the ladies‘ room?”
“Well, now, I will plan the fastest route for you. Please go forward and turn left, and it’s on your left side.”
“Thank you,” Stella said.
“You’re welcome.”
If Stella hadn’t hurried to the restroom, she would have studied this robot carefully.
Following the robot’s guidance, Stella walked out of the exhibition hall from the side door, turned left, and pushed open the door of the restroom.
“Ah!” Seeing the scene inside, Stella was so frightened that she froze in place.
There was a row of men with their backs to her, and the first one was Nathaniel.
