The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

"You might not care about yourself, but think about the people working under you."

The day Stella Cameron signed the contract with Shawn Pearce, she didn't actually walk away with much of a loss.

Aicken had said it himself this deal was crucial for the company.

With that in mind, Stella stopped resisting.

"Thank you, Jonathan."

Jonathan Williams nodded. "Shawn wants to apologize to you in person. He's next door. Let me take you over."

Next door, Shawn had been waiting for quite a while.

As soon as Stella entered, he stood up from the couch.

"Ms. Cameron, you're here." He extended his hand, his tone sincere. "I wasn't myself last time, and I was terribly rude. I hope you'll forgive my behavior and not hold it against me."

Stella glanced at his outstretched hand but didn't take it.

Shawn noticed, but instead of looking awkward, he simply withdrew his hand with perfect composure.

Besides him, a sharply dressed female assistant stood quietly in the room.

Jonathan turned to Shawn. "Show her the revised contract."

Shawn glanced at his assistant. "Bring it over, let Ms. Cameron have a look-see if there's anything she's not satisfied with."

The assistant handed Stella the contract respectfully. "Ms. Cameron, please review it."
