Chapter 74

Sebastian dropped Stephanie at Eastview Tower.

He told Stephanie that the driver would pick her up at night and asked her to eat well after returning.

Stephanie said that she wanted to have dinner with Ella, and Sebastian said then he would have the driver take her to the

restaurant.

Stephanie didn’t want to because she wanted to go cat spicy food with Ella, but she knew he wouldn’t allow it.

“Fine,”

Resigned, she mumbled, disappointment dripping.

Amused, Sebastian nodded at Elliot. The car pulled away.

Stephanie lingered, cheeks still flushed.

Returning from lunch, Jennifer spotted her boss crimson–faced at the entrance.

She leaned in for a closer look.

Stephanie startled backward. “What are you doing?”

“Boss, your face is all red. Are you dating someone?”

Speaking of date, back when Chris was Stephanie’s fiancé, who in the studio didn’t feel sorry for her?

Everyone knew his heart belonged to Olivia.

They’d grieved for Stephanie–marrying such a man promised lifelong misery.

Unexpectedly, she never intended to marry him.

Stephanie: “Dating? Don’t spout nonsense.”

He’s my brother–the one who raised me…

Jennifer: “You’re single now. What’s wrong with dating?”

Stephanie: “…”

It made sense, but she didn’t want to.

A shadow flickered in her eyes–too fleeting for Jennifer to understand.

Afternoon Rush.

Stephanie drowned in work–back–to–back calls with major clients.

Near quitting time, irrelevant calls bombarded her.

First, it was Chris.

“Stephanie! Who the hell is that man?!”
