Chapter 617

Chapter 615:

Sigh... I am so tired. Ruben slumped in a chair in the lounge and collapsed.

Dave bit his lip, thinking to himself, You didn’t do anything at all. I was the one who dealt with the rest of the things, okay?

“Hey, Dave, do you think I should quit the entertainment industry now?” Ruben suddenly felt that being a vice president of RK’s company was appealing. He didn’t have to do anything every day, just collected a good salary each month.

Working in the entertainment industry was very tiring, and he was exhausted. There were still many people who said it was great for him to be a vice president.

“No, it’s not a good idea.” When Dave heard that Ruben was considering quitting the entertainment industry, he was immediately frightened. If Ruben quit, what would he do? So it was not a good idea at all.

Seeing the nervous look on Dave’s face, Ruben didn’t understand why he was so anxious. However, he felt that he could consider leaving the entertainment industry.

RK also saw the news on the television and thought that Ruben was very wealthy. He booked all the major TV stations just to broadcast his press conference. RK decided that Ruben’s salary could be reduced in the future, feeling it was better to leave it for Adrian.

Ruben immediately abandoned the idea of leaving the entertainment industry when he noticed that his salary was only slightly higher this month. However, this was just a matter of time.

Stella received a call from a strange number. However, after she picked up the phone, she quickly recognized who it was.

“I don’t know why Miss Alice asked me out for a meal,” Stella said, looking at Alice in front of her. She couldn’t understand why Alice wanted to meet; did she know about her relationship with Tristan and come to show her off?

“Don’t think too much about it, Stella. I just want to have a chat with you. I heard about the story between you two. Last time, you left in a hurry and didn’t get a chance to talk, so I asked you out today,” Alice said, her smile unwavering as she looked at Stella.

Stella didn’t understand why Alice always wanted to talk to her, so she could only smile back at Alice.

“Do you like Tristan?”

gⱯlnσν퓮ℓs.풸оm hosts thrilling adventures When Alice asked the question, Stella was stunned. Do you like Tristan?

“I like him. How could I not like him?” Stella answered Alice’s question with a straight face. It could be said that she had liked Tristan since childhood. However, it wasn’t a romantic love; it was more of a sibling-like bond.

“Of course, how could you not like him? He is such a good person,” Alice remarked, seemingly recalling something that made her smile even wider.

“Does Miss Alice like Brother Tristan?” Stella asked. She sensed that Alice had feelings for Tristan.

“Of course, I do,” Alice replied, expressing her affection for Tristan without hesitation. Stella smiled but fell silent, taking a sip of her coffee.

Alice didn’t know when she had developed a possessive desire for Tristan. Every day, when Tristan spoke about Stella and how wonderful she was, she especially wanted to meet the Stella he mentioned.

RK had an appointment with someone in this café to discuss something. Before he entered, he noticed Stella sitting by the window. RK had never seen the woman sitting across from Stella before. In his memory, Stella only had one female friend, Emily.

When had she made other friends?

“It’s getting late. I have to go back to work now,” Stella said, glancing at her watch. She smiled apologetically at Alice. “Sorry to disturb you.” Alice didn’t urge Stella to stay but simply smiled at her.

As soon as Stella stepped out of the coffee shop, she saw RK.

“Your friend?” RK asked Stella uncertainly, concerned that someone might trouble her.

“Another friend of Tristan’s,” Stella replied, unsure why she told RK this.

“Have you had lunch?” RK changed the subject, asking about her meal. He didn’t have anything to say about Tristan, and he realized it was almost lunchtime. Noticing only a coffee mug in front of Stella, he felt she probably hadn’t eaten yet.

Indeed, Stella hadn’t had lunch, so she shook her head. RK didn’t say anything; he just reached out to take Stella’s hand and led her back into the coffee shop.

Of course, Alice, who was sitting by the window, saw everything. Stella didn’t look at Alice to keep her at ease, letting RK pull her along without resistance.

RK led Stella straight to his private room, which he had booked in advance for a meeting. “The noodles here are not bad. I have an appointment with someone, so it’s not convenient for me to take you somewhere else to eat. Let’s eat here,” RK said, ignoring the fact that he was supposed to meet someone and helping Stella out.
