Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 741

She was almost done with packing and decorating the house when she received Bradley’s call. There
was a press conference that she could choose not to attend, but it would benefit her to gain exposure.

Stella naturally wouldn’t refuse such a chance.

When she arrived at the event, she found Angelina there too.

They hadn’t met for a while and were excited to see each other again.

After the press conference ended, Bradley introduced the two of them to other people in the industry.

That was when Stella bumped into Lucas.

“This is Dr. Lucas Quirk. The next movie will be a medical drama, and he will be taking on the crew’s
medical consultant role and providing us with professional and technical guidance.”

Angelina reached out to shake Lucas’ hand. “Hello, Dr. Quirk.”

Lucas nodded mildly and reached his hand out to Stella as well.

Stella snapped back to attention and plastered a smile on her face, pretending not to know him. “Hello,
Dr. Quirk.”

“Hello, nice to meet you.”

Lucas glanced at her quickly before retracting his gaze.

He never had a good impression of her and even stopped Yvonne from hanging out with her.

Stella didn’t want to say much to him and remained silent.



Even Bradley could tell that something was wrong with Stella during the after-party. “Why are you so
quiet?”

Such events were golden opportunities for actors and actresses to showcase themselves and their
potential.

At the end of the day, even actors needed to know how to sell themselves like commercial products.

Although that didn’t sound too good, it was precisely how the industry worked. Before one turned
famous, showcasing oneself to an appropriate and tasteful degree was an essential tool for success.

Stella had no choice but to take the initiative to chat with other people.

Lucas was not a sociable person to begin with. Stella was thankful she did not bump into him much as
she made her rounds.

To her dismay, she bumped into someone else familiar whom she wasn’t very willing to see either.

Michael Sealey.

“No wonder I found you familiar to the eye. Turns out, you’re an actress!”



He walked toward Stella, decked out in a presentable white suit. Although he was advanced in years,
he still looked urbane and suave. “Why are you all alone? Didn’t Mr. Ford accompany you here?” he
said, all smiles.

Stella’s face changed as she looked away. “We are in public right now. Please don’t talk about things
that nobody else understands.”



She said with a feigned smile, and Michael naturally caught her meaning. “I’m sorry for blabbering too
quickly. It’s just that…”

He suddenly stopped and looked at Stella, puzzled. “I heard that Mr. Ford broke off his engagement
with Guinevere Cohen. In that case, the two of you…”

Stella smiled, unfazed by his words. “None of your business.”

With that, she went to another spot with Angelina in tow.

Angelina asked her, “I think that man is another one of those old presidents. Do you know him?”

Stella shook her head, “I’ve only met him once. He says I bear an uncanny resemblance with one of his
nieces.”

Realization struck Angelina. “No wonder he said that you looked familiar. I was wondering why that
would be so. Although we are actors, the movie we just filmed hasn’t even been aired. Why would he
find you familiar?”

Angelina was very simple-minded and didn’t think too much of it.

Stella went to a corner to take a break. A while later, Lucas walked toward her and reminded her,
“Michael is a married man.”

His tone was flat and calm, almost emotionless, despite his words dripping with sarcasm and mockery.

Stella clenched her fists. “In your eyes, am I that kind of woman constantly looking for opportunities to
be a home wrecker?”

Lucas furrowed his brows and said in a low voice, “I know that you met with Yvonne previously. I don’t
like it.”



“So what if you don’t?”

Stella lifted her head to look at him. “Yvonne is a person with rights and a mind of her own.”

“It’s precisely because she has a mind of her own that I’m here to remind you: Don’t take advantage of
her.”

He had said this many times to her before.
