Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1317

Chapter 1317Chapter 1317
What was the point of letting her know all those things after she had suffered so much pain and suffering
at his hands?
Right now, she had no desire to love anyone or to even approach this painful emotion.
She had been through too much excruciating pain in the past, losing her first child and even almost
losing her own life.
Stella was not sure if she could trust anything Weston
Ford said anymore. Perhaps it was best to just go with the flow and let nature take its course.
Navig@te back to th€ roots of thïš substance at n0v^lebookShe was just too exhausted to think of these things now.
Yvonne had agreed to meet up with Stella at the shopping mall later that evening, but because Stella had
just regained her sight, she decided to be there a little earlier to look around.
The mall was located in a new commercial district. After giving up on her training center, Yvonne
changed course and opened a new mall in Fern City with her family’s financial backing. Surprisingly
adept in managing the business, the mall became successful in no time, enough for her to expand into a
chain.
One of the main reasons Stella wanted to come earlier was so she could see her friend’s achievements
with her own eyes.
It seemed that there was an event going on here today. Wearing a mask and hat, she spotted the stage
from a distance. Although she was not that well–known in Ahn City, she still took no chances in case
someone might recognize her.There was a cleared space near the stage, so Stella decided to turn around and walk in another
direction, but then the place was gradually crowding up. Crowds of people had suddenly headed her way
as if something interesting was happening. She turned around to see a grand piano on the stage. This
piqued her interest. She stopped there, eager to see what kind of performance there would be.
Behind the simple stage was a tiny dressing room. The door to the room was closed, but it was not
enough to mask the noise of the crowd coming from the outside.
Nicole Douglas was sitting there while a makeup artist was frantically doing her makeup.
“Why on earth would they send me to such a cheap place?” she grumbled with discontent. “I’m too good
to be performing here!”
Now a minor celebrity, her management company had often assigned her to performances at a variety of
events, but she would always complain that they were beneath her.
The last time when she returned from Snow Mountain, her management company had warned her to
watch her behavior, and since then, she did actually listen to them and calmed her antics. Hence, she
obediently decided to come here after being ordered to. After the cutting of the ribbon, she was
scheduled to perform on the piano.
Still, Nicole did not even bother to find out about the event’s organizer. She believed it might have
something to do with a piano shop and treated the job as a sort of extra–curricular activity. The truth,
however, was that she was never that good at playing the piano in the first place.
Her management company had promoted her as a musically talented entertainer, but it was all just
marketing, and Nicole was often sent to classes to brush up on her skills at the last minute. She only
needed to appear talented anyway.After all, the most important thing was to get her famous first, and even if she’d be criticized for her lack
of talent, they could always remedy that by running a few PR exercises.
The organizer was now rushing her to get on stage. Reluctantly, she dragged her feet out of the dressing
room and out into the crowd.
The sight of people moving freely in the mall solidified her opinion that this event was just not worth her
time, considering her fame and talents.
She took a few steps further before her eyes latched on a very familiar figure in the crowd–Stella Sealey.
Nicole frowned. She followed her assistant as they walked toward the spot where Stella was standing.
Stella was a little surprised to see Nicole there. She pulled her hat down to hide her face and tried to
leave, but then suddenly Nicole bumped into her-
“Ah!” Nicole squealed. “Excuse me, but I didn’t see you just now. Are you okay?”
“What is wrong with you?!” Stella grimaced and glared at her.
The smug, gloating smile on Nicole’s instantly vanished. Her expression changed as she petulantly
complained to her manager, “That woman just yelled at me!”
“Forget it,” her manager replied. “It’s almost time to go on stage. Come on, let’s hurry…”
