Chapter 188
Amidst the rising sounds of gasps, a curious man who wasn't much of a gossip lover, couldn't resist, so he leaned over and weakly asked, "Who is it?"
The woman who had spoken earlier wore an expression of disbelief. "Are you really that clueless? I already said it's a big shot from Seldvale. The hint was almost too obvious. Since you peeled the eggs for me, I'll tell you... this big shot is..."
She paused, building suspense, and then lowered her voice, satisfied, "Stephan!"
Stephan was a big shot who controlled the global economic lifeline! Just mentioning his name made some people show awe, while others had faces full of reverence and admiration.
He was a far-off existence for them.
The man who asked the question muttered, "Is that true? But I've heard that Mr. Russell never shows interest in women..."
"Your idea of not being interested in women doesn't mean he's not playing around behind the scenes."
That made sense.
The crowd nodded in agreement and then began discussing Abbie's looks, each
commenting, "She's really beautiful."
Before Abbie's fame, her photos were pretty, but compared to her current stunning appearance, she felt like a completely different person.
The saying "being nurtured by wealth" was no exaggeration.
"Abbie's offline event is in Khogend, and I heard two more events are coming up. Let's go and check it out. Who knows, we might get an autograph or a photo!"
"Yeah, that sounds great!"
While gently petting Cloud's sleepy head, Felicia didn't join in their conversation. She quietly listened, but as she thought about Stephan's unpredictable temper, she wondered if the rumors were true.
Spending money for a woman's favor...
She paused for a moment, then suddenly thought, if that was the case, could it be that he had been bothering her multiple times after the herbal medicine incident because they had... a relationship? Maybe he couldn't explain it to that actress, so he was so angry.
Hmm... It was possible.
Should she give Cloud to him?
Felicia hesitated but still hadn't figured it out by the time the bus returned to school, and all
the students got off.
Meanwhile, at the Russell estate halfway up the mountain, Stephan listened to his subordinate's report, a faint smile curling at the corners of his lips.
"Mr. Russell, Ms. Fuller has returned to school and brought that little white dog with her."
"I see."
She had really angered him the last time at the hospital. She actually asked, "Do adults still have to take responsibility for something like this?"
Was it unnecessary?
He snorted coldly. Since Felicia brought Cloud back, it must have been because she knew he liked it and wanted to give it to him.
In that case, he would forgive her.
Stephan was in a good mood and instructed, "When she comes, have her come to see me.'
His subordinate wanted to ask, "How do you know she'll come?"
But they wanted to complain even more about how he had just looked so gloomy, yet now he seemed to be in a good mood, even a little happy.
It was just a dog Felicia brought back. Why was he this pleased?Content held by .
The subordinate silently complained in their mind but respectfully replied, "Understood, Mr. Russell."
