Yoel should still be in Mavonia, so the signal shouldn’t be very well connected, Stella then tried to call
Bernard.
At the same time, Bernard was in the CEO’s office of Foley Group.
Brian had asked him to come over. At this moment, he was leaning in front of the table and looking down
at Bernard, elegance in his every move.
Bernard glanced at him and didn’t answer the call. After turning it off, he asked, “Brian, why did you call
me here?”
Brian put one hand in his pocket and said indifferently, “I called you here just to tell you not to see Stella
in private again.”
“Why not?”
Brian straightened his collar. There was a hickey on his collarbone. He showed it to Bernard on purpose.
We’ve already made up. She’s mine.”
When Bernard saw the hickey, he felt bitter. They actually reconciled. However, he wasn’t going to let
things be.
“What about Jessica? She has your baby. How are you going to deal with her? Don’t tell me you want to
keep both of them by your side.”
*Jessica’s baby isn’t mine,” Brian said honestly. But i hope you’ll keep this a secret.”
Bernard was stunned. “Didn’t Jessica say that the baby is yours?
“Do you just believe everything she says? Brian smiled as if to mock him for his foolishness
Bernard clenched his fists. That was right. Joseph had said that Brian had never loved Jessica. The story
of Jessica being Brian’s muse and having loved him for ten years was all just a scheme by Jessica’s team.
However, Bernard hadn’t expected things to turn out this way. Jessica, the person he trusted the most.
turned out to be the one who had deceived him.
Bernard glanced at Brian and said, “Brian, I’m sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing?”
“I lied to you in Solvencrest Estate back then. Actually, Stella never seduced me. There’s nothing between
T
- us.
“I know.”
Brian was stunned. “How did you know about that?”
Brian glanced at him and said, “I’m not an idiot. I had a clear picture of everything after I got to the bottom of things.” He only called Bernard over to talk after seeing through what he was thinking.
Bernard’s handsome face turned a little pale. It turned out that Brian already knew the truth. Bernard felt a little ashamed. “I’m sorry, Brian.”
Bernard left Foley Group. Then, he went to Starlight Couture. Stella was drawing. When she heard that
Bernard was there, she asked Xenia to bring him to her office.
After he walked into the office, Stella poured him a glass of warm water. She had no makeup on, but she was so beautiful that Bernard couldn’t take his eyes off her.
“What are you doing here?” Stella asked him.
Bernard sat down on the chair and glanced at her. “Since you called me, I came here.”
“I just returned the 500 thousand dollars to you. This issue has been solved, but I still want to thank you,”
Stella said. He had somewhat helped her out, after all.
Bernard said with a smile, “I heard you and Brian have made up.”
“Yeah. More or less. Stella nodded. After hearing Brian talk about him, she already knew that Bernard liked her a little, so she instinctively avoided his gaze.
Bernard said, “I came here today to apologize. Also, I will be studying business management abroad
soon, so I want to say goodbye.”
Stella nodded, and her smile softened a little. “I wish you success in your career. I hope things go well for
you.”
Her smile seemingly bewitched Bernard. He held her hand and asked, “Do you want to go to Eurania with
me?”
Stella was stunned. She slowly pulled her hand away and said gently, “Bernard, thank you for liking me, but I belong to someone else. I’m sorry.
Bernard was sad. He opened his mouth and was about to tell Stella something “Actually, Brian-”
“Bernard, what are you doing? A cold voice came from the door.
Bernard froze.
