The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 441

He'd always been like this-never bothering to lie to her, his frankness bordering on shamelessness.

Stella sat quietly for a few seconds before she finally spoke.

"You can have the studio. But right now, I want you to take down Antoney's trending posts, find whoever leaked the story, and clear Antoney's name."

Haynes paused, then replied, "Fine."

"And about the songwriting," Stella continued, "I want to talk to you in person tomorrow."

"All right."

After she hung up, Abby looked at Stella with concern.

"Star, do you really mean to negotiate with Haynes?"

Haynes was notorious for being ruthless-anyone who tried to make a deal with him always ended up worse for wear. Stella really had little chance of coming out ahead.

Stella dismissed her worries lightly. "Don't worry. I won't let myself get the short end of the stick that easily."

But Abby, seeing how calm Stella looked, felt a wave of unease rise up inside her.

She knew Stella's personality-there was no way she would just back down without a fight.

It was almost as if... she was planning something.

Abby's nerves were fraying. She hated the injustice of it all, but she was tired of fighting.
