Chapter 64

Chris sat in his car for a long time after hanging up on Kevin, his mind a tangled mess.

That studio had been running since last year, right under his nose, yet it had grown into something beyond his control.

Stephanie was his hancée, and yet, with just a few words, she had shattered everything.

Chris couldn’t help but wonder who exactly was the man backing her

At noon, Ella finally got to have lunch with Stephanie. “What happened to your mouth? Why is it so swollen?” Ella asked as soson as she saw her.

Stephanie paused, her fingers tightening slightly around her fork.

Her gaze softened as she looked at Ella.

Unlike Stephanie, Ella had a rough start in life.

Stephanie had been abandoned by a servant, but at least the Giovanni family took her in and never let her suffer.

Ella, on the other hand, had a deadbeat father who disappeared the moment she was born, a textbook case of an irresponsible man.
