Chapter 31 Stella likes you
Stella returned to her office.
Eli Wayne passed by and saw Stella.
She returned and asked with concern, “Stella, how did it go yesterday?”
“I’m going to get a divorce.” Stella said serenely.
“Really? You made a good decision. I fully support your decision.” She grinned cheekily once more. “Is it true that you went to meet the handsome gentleman yesterday evening?”
“No.” Stella shook her head and felt somewhat desolate. “I won’t meet him again.”
“Why? If it’s because he thinks you’re hitched. You’re getting a divorce soon,” Eli Wayne said in perplexity.
“Our lifestyles are too different. I need to lease a house, and go to a law firm later. If I want to get a divorce, I need to show the evidence of Federick’s infidelity.” Stella thought.
“The proof of Federick’s disloyalty? It’s straightforward. I’ll handle that for you.” Eli Wayne said without hesitating.
“Thank you,” Stella said earnestly.
The marriage, which lasted three years, was finally coming to an end.
The purgatory could finally be discharged.
Only after letting go did she realize the sense of relief.
There was a knock on the door and Stella looked up.
The expression on the gynaecologist’s face looked extremely terrible. He looked at Stella and said, “Director wants to see you, it is not a good thing, be mentally prepared.”
“Could it be Federick that asshole?” Eli Wayne said indignantly.
Stella’s heart skipped a beat.
Stella likewise had an awful inclination. “I’ll go first.”
Eli Wayne immediately called the director after Stella left. “Dad, what’s going on? Will the people above target Stella?”
“Someone from the Health Bureau is pressuring on this matter. I ought to have managed it yesterday but I deferred it for a day to let her think of a way but she has yet to revert to me. I need to disclose this to the higher-ups.” The director said helplessly.
“Hold up, I have a solution. Dad, leave it first, hang on,” Eli Wayne said.
“Dear daughter, what do you want to do? I have cleaned up after you many times, stop causing trouble.” The director said nervously.
“I know. You just have to hang tight for 30 minutes.” Eli Wayne hung up the phone.
Eli Wayne took out her cell phone from her white bag and found the chief’s contact.
Eli Wayne called the number with Stella’s phone.
The phone rang twice and was hung up.
Desperate, Eli Wayne called Jasper again regardless of whether he was busy or not. However, Jasper still did not pick up the call.
She rapidly sent him an instant message: “Waiting for you to spare a life, answer the phone quickly.”
Eli called again after sending the message.
Jasper answered, “What is it?”
“Mr Jasper, that’s right. Stella is waiting for you to rescue her,” Eli said.
Jasper was shocked to hear the voice of another woman. “What happened to Stella?”
“Stella was delivering a baby at work the other day. The pregnant woman’s ultrasound showed that the cord curled tight around the neck of the baby. Stella had to perform an unusual procedure to save the baby. Turns out this woman was the lover of her husband. Since Stella wanted to get a divorce, her husband instigated his lover to sue Stella and wanted her to lose her job.” Eli said simply.
“Got it. I’ll handle it,” Jasper said in a low voice.
Eli breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that. She smiled and said, “You’re indeed a dependable yet powerful boyfriend. No wonder Stella likes you.”
“Stella likes me?” Jasper scowled and didn’t trust it by any means.
“Yeah, she told me in person that she likes you, but it’s not easy for her to like anyone since she is married now. But you should know this, Stella is going all out to get a divorce.” Eli said deliberately.
She thought Stella was a good match for Jasper.
Jasper was silent for a moment, then he hung up the phone. His eyes softened a little, he picked up the phone to call the Director of the hospital.
“Hello, I am Jasper, the general of the special forces. Doctor Stella acted according to my instructions in the task. If someone is looking for trouble, please direct them to me. It has nothing to do with Stella.” Jasper said in a soft tone.
The director was stunned.
It was Jasper, the general of the special forces who had just called him.
His daughter was very efficient.
“Okay, I know. I will handle it well.” The director said with trepidation.
Jasper hung up the phone.
The director said to Stella, “You are all right. Jasper of the special forces just called and said that you did it according to his instructions. It has nothing to do with you. Return to work.”
Stella lowered her eyes.
She didn’t expect that Jasper was still willing to help her. She was touched once again.
Stella returned to work.
Her workplace was covered with roses, and beside the chairs were two paper bags.
Federick sat languidly at her desk and asked evilly, “Do you like it?”
Stella didn’t like it.
There was a trace of lack of interest in Stella’s eyebrows. “I haven’t got off work yet. You will affect my work here.”
“I have asked the nurse station, you don’t have surgery arranged this afternoon, I won’t have affect your job here.” He stood up and stroked her fringe.
Stella stepped back subconsciously.
Federick did not like her rejection and his gaze sharpened. “What are you trying to do?”
“It was you who pressured the director to fire me, wasn’t it?” Stella asked straightforwardly.
Federick unexpectedly paused. “I nearly forgot this matter. One second.”
He dialled the phone in front of Stella and requested, “Withdraw the lawsuit against Stella.”
After that, he hung up the phone, smiled and looked at Stella. “Baby, I have taken care of this issue. As long as you do as I say, I won’t let you suffer.”
She had goose bump from the way he had called her.
“I’m going to work,” Stella said aloofly, sitting in front of her desk.
Federick put the gift bag on Stella’s table. “These are garments and shoes. My friend invited me to dinner today. I want you to go with me.”
Stella thought of the H-wife occurrence last time and her face turned pale. “I won’t go. I would prefer not to know your friends.”
“I was confounded last time. I won’t do it this time. I’ll pick you up tonight.” Federick said with a domineering smile.
He turned and left Stella’s room.
When Eli saw Federick walking out of Stella’s workplace, she ran over and asked worriedly, “Is that beast attempting to entangle you once more?”
“The purgatory will be over soon,” Stella said firmly.
“Hurry up, let’s finish it. There’s something better waiting for you.” Eli smiled ambiguously.
Jasper appeared to be in Stella’s mind.
” Coincidentally, I called Jasper concerning your situation. My father said that he will handle it immediately. You are going to get a divorce anyways; you can try working it out with him then.” Eli recommended.
