Chapter 4
The Conrad family did not like Ste in the first ce and their disgust towards her grew even more
when the fake pregnancy issue was exposed. Their attitude towards Ste had been apathetic. No
wonder rence was so mad this time, it turned out she had made a huge mistake.
Ste waited for another few days after she went back, yet she still did not receive any message from
rence. Their encounter at the Twilight Club that day enabled her to have sufficient reason to suspect
that the reason rence dyed their divorce was topletely disgust her, keeping on reminding her
he had cheated on her wherever she went. That was to take revenge of what she had done to him back
then.
rence was patient to dy the matter, yet Ste could not waste her time and energy on that
anymore. What she thought beforehand was to make ns after she had gone through all the divorce
formalities. She still needed to live her life, and she did not want to sit and wait there anymore.
Sherry stopped eating the chips in her hand when she heard that she wanted to find a job and she
became energetic. “Come to our magazine, our magazine coincidentally wants to hire a designer to
make our own brand recently.” Ste frowned when she heard that. “Am I…capable? I’ve not created
anything for three years.”
“Of course you can, honey. Just try, you have nothing to lose.” Ste was persuaded and she nodded.
“Okay.”
Sherry was a person of action and she took Ste’s work from three years ago to the chief editor’s
office the next day. After finished looking through them, Stanford Leif’s eyes fell onto the signature on
the work and asked at length, “Sharon is your friend?”
“Yes, she’s really brilliant, and her design was awe-inspiring. We won’t suffer loss if we hire her.”
Stanford certainly knew how brilliant she was, yet Sharon was like a short-lived flower in the jewelry
design industry which vanished after blooming for a moment. Someone said she had been out of ideas
after receiving award and could no longer design new things. Others said rich men hadid eyes on her
and she had secretly gotten married and had children. Anyway, there were all kinds of rumor.
It was just that to one’s surprise, she had actuallye back after three years’ time, when everyone
had forgotten about her. Stanford said, “Does she have time tonight? Let’s have dinner together.”
Sherry knew Ste had basically secured the offer when he said that, and she instantly nodded. “Of
course, I’ll inform her now.”
Ste had quite a nice chat with Sherry’s chief editor when they were having dinner. Although she had
kept on iming she had not picked up the drawing pencil these three years, Stanford still replied he
was okay with that. He only wanted her to make a draft of a product ording to a specific style within
that week. If the boss thought there was not much problem about that, they would officially hire her.
The time was already a bitte when they finished their meal. Stanford said, “It’s not easy to call for cab
in this area, you two girls are not safe by yourselves, I’ll send both of you home.”
“Great, I’ll go to the washroom first.” After finished, Sherry looked towards Ste, “Do you want to go?”
“Let’s go.”
Sherry said, “Please wait for us for a while, Mr. Leif, we’ll be right back.” Stanford smiled. “No worries.
Take your time.”
After getting out of the washroom, Sherry washed her hands while saying, “Excellent, we’ve finally
made it!” Ste did not expect things to turn out that smoothly and she was still slightly worried. “I’m still
scared that your boss won’t like my work afterwards. I’ll feel guilty towards you and Mr. Leif.”Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Sherry said, “You’ve thought too much, honey. Our boss is a cheerful old man and he’s exceptionally
nice. He almost doesn’t intervene in anything and Mr. Leif basically decides for every matter, small or
big in the magazine. He only follows the standard operating procedure by letting the boss have a look.
Mr. Leif values you, there must be no problem.”
As Sherry just finished her words, there was a series of the cking sound of high heels on the ground
outside the washroom. Vivian showed up before them the next second. As if none of them had
expected seeing each other there, Vivian only snorted after they were startled, “What a pathetic
follower”
Ste jerked a paper towel out and wiped her hands dry. She spoke casually, “Just say if you want to
get beaten, you don’t have to beat the bush.”
“You…” Vivian knew she was no match for Ste sincest time and since there were two people
against her this time, she would have no hope for victory no matter how. Sherry said, “What, do you
need me to call others toe over to see how a mistress should behave?”
Vivian sneered and spoke with an uncanny tone, “Ste, aren’t you being shameless enough, could
you possibly not have any clue on what trick you’ve used to get married into the Conrad family? And
you’re using me as the mistress, you don’t seem to be any better than me. Why, do you really think
you could eliminate your deed after you’ve sessfully married rence?”
Sherry wanted to retort, but Ste snatched her wrist and stared at Vivian with a level look. “Did
rence tell you that?” Vivian was clearly a woman with boobs and hip but no brain. She had not
mentioned that back then twice and seeing hercent look while kicking her when she was down,
the only exnation would be she just knew about it.
“Yeah, he said a woman like you has really disgusted him, and he said the thing he regrets the most in
this life was to encounter you in the Twilight Club. You’re like a stinky and sticky doeskin ster that
makes his whole body stinks the moment he takes it off. He can’t wait to rub every part of his skin
which hase into contact with you.”
After finished, Vivian only became scared when she saw Ste’s expressionless face. She took a step
backward with alert to avoid her hitting her again. Yet to her surprise, Ste did not say anything and
did not intend to hit her. She only tossed the used tissue paper into the dustbin and left. Sherry quickly
followed her when she saw that.
“Ste, don’t take that woman’s words to heart, the guy’s a bastard and the woman’s a shameless
bitch, they don’t worth you getting mad at them…” Before she finished her words, Sherry saw the man
whom she called bastard just now standing not far away at the front and he was chatting ndly with
someone. Ste seemed to not notice him and she walked fast without taking a nce.
Vincent James could sense a murderous auraing from behind and he could not help but turn. He
was baffled when he saw the woman who wasing closer and closer. “Isn’t that your wife? Why is
she here?” rence looked up and his eyebrows unnoticeably wrinkled. Impatience shed across his
dark eyes. She had followed him there, and she said she only wanted to divorce? When had this
woman be more and more calcting?
As rence wanted to speak coldly when he saw her approaching, Ste did not nce at him and
she did not intend to stop walking. She passed by him quickly like a breeze with an expressionless
face. Sherry who was following closely behind her on the other hand stopped for a moment beside him.
She opened her mouth and looked like she wanted to scold him, but thinking that the timing was not
right, she ran away.
Vincent who had witnessed the whole process let out an awkward chuckle to resolve the
embarrassment. “Have I mistaken her for someone else?” rence disliked his wife, and you could say
that he hated her. Everyone who worked in the same industry knew about that.
