Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

Chapter 508

The vacation photo shoot time just for the two of them had finally come to an end.

As they returned to Betrico, the beautifully crafted photo album from their trip arrived at Chivers Residence.

Cherise sat on the sofa, flipping through the album, the smile of her face growing wider.

The photos were surprisingly good, not like the forced poses of regular photo studios or photography workshops.

The actions were all natural, filled with genuine emotions.

When Cherise smiled, Morris smiled along with her. When Cherise acted playful, he smiled too, his eyes glowing with adoration.

In the south of the city, at a high-end, private villa, Stella was lost in thought. Since the other day after Arthur's questioning and the cold, unrecognizing gaze she received, Stella had been home and seemed distracted.

In the garden, an elderly woman, appearing kind and gentle, watched Stella sitting beside her. After taking a sip of coffee, she spoke. "Stella, what's wrong? I've never seen you like this. Is your new job not going well? "If it's not, just talk to your father or Tristan. They can arrange something for you. Don't let yourself suffer, dear."

Stella shook her head. "No, Mom. The new job is fine. My boss and colleagues are great, and I don't need to change. Besides, using connections to get a job isn't right. It can lead to gossip."

This elderly woman was Stella's mother, Cora

Cora smiled, almost teasingly. "What's the big deal? Many people get good jobs through connections. There's no fairness in the world.

"If it's not about work, then it must be about your feelings. It's about Arthur, the one sitting in the position now. Am I right?"

When it came to her mother, Stella had no reason to hide anything, and she nodded. "Yes."

Cora wasn't surprised. "Oh, you've met him already? That was quick. Did something unpleasant happen when you met?"

Cora understood her daughter well. Stella nodded again. "Yes, we ran into each other at a work event a couple of days ago. Arthur didn't recognize me at all. He even asked if I was from the Walton family."
