In the evening, Stella received a call from Emmett.

Emmett said, “Stella, Daniel said Chan has moved into his apartment. How’s everything going with you? My friend said Winnie Truman’s PR team is dealing with that matter, trying to reduce the impact to the lowest.”

Stella answered, “Thanks, Emmett. I’m pretty well here. Nothing else happened. Chan moved in because he’s worried about me.”

For a whole day, Nathan didn’t call her to follow up on the case. It seemed that she wasn’t needed any longer.

After a while, Emmett said slowly, “Stella, do you have time this weekend? It’s our company’s annual party. We’re going to a resort nearby City N and stay there for two days and one night. I want you to go with me.”

Stella thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. “Sure.”

Emmett breathed a sigh of relief, seemingly his mood became better. “I’ll go pick you up on Saturday morning, then.”

As soon as Stella hung up the phone, Sherry approached her. She asked joyfully, “How’s it going? Did Emmett ask you out for a date?”

Upon hearing it, Channing who was next to them also looked over at Stella.

Stella was speechless.

Why did they react so dramatically?

She answered, “It’s not a date. He asked me to attend his company’s annual party with him.”

“Isn’t it a date?” Sherry said while munching the potato chips, “You’ll be his date to attend such an occasion. Besides, even you are not his girlfriend now, you have a certain relationship already. It’s just a matter of time when you two would progress.”

Stella pressed her lips and didn’t speak.

Channing withdrew his gaze on his sister and kept browsing his book. “I’m not against it.”

Sherry raised both hands to agree. “Me neither.”

“I still feel a bit dizzy. I’ll go to bed now.”
