Chapter 2
Once again, the air went still. The entire crowd was stured, including the viewers watching the livestrearn, because everyone recognized the man Stella was kissing and embracing as Rowan Mansfield, the heir to the prestigious Mansfield family in Londale,
druthless. He was so
Howan was born with a fare that looked like it had been crafted by angels. He came off as nonchalant and flippant, but in truth, he was cold and high bomthat he was untouchable. Everyone knew he was dangerous, but they couldn’t help falling for him nonetheless.
At that moment, the noise on the red carpet died down to a hush, Only the cameras were flashing nonstop, incontrast to the silence on the red carpet, the online comments were like atomtential storm.
“Has Skanky Stella lost her mind?“. someone demanded.
“Allih! What the hell is she doing? How dare she kiss my Mr. Mansfield |
“Is she so desperate to go viral? First, she slaps Celina on camera, and now she’s forcefully kissing Mr. Mansfield? She must have cead too many cheesy novels if she thinks doing this will make her famous!”
“Everyone knows Rowan has no interest in women! Not even someone like Celina can catch his eye! Who does Stella think she is? Does she have a death wish?”
“I heard she and Rowan have never gotten along since they were children. Grab your popcorn, everyone, because we’re in for quite the drama!”
“I don’t care! She kissed my hubby, damn it! Why can’t she just drop dead?”
“Relax Rowan won’t let her off easy. Just kick back and enjoy the show!”
The viewers aside, even Erin–Stella’s good friend and manager was so shocked that her eyes nearly bogged out of her head.
Erin was one of the few who knew about Stella and Rowan’s history. They had known each other since childhood, but they weren’t close. On the contrary, they were on such bad terms that anywhere Rowan appeared, Stella would deem the air so polluted that she would disinfect it with air freshener.
Their sour relationship was because Stella had been cruslaing on Randy Morse since she was a child. But Randy disliked Rowan, who was superior and adored by everyour, and Stella disliked Rowan because of Handy,
So, what the hell was going on now?
At that moment, Erin and the netizens shared the same thought–Stella was so desperate for fame that she’d gone mad!
Nearby, Celina cupped her cheek and stared at Stella with wide eyes. However, wicked amusement flashed in her eyes. Stella must have lost her mind if she’d worked up the rive to piss Rowan off! Wasn’t she even the slightest bit worried that the ruthless man would kill her?
The bodyguardsescorting Rowan were also at a loss as they exchanged looks. After all, they had seen the kiss from up close. They’d actually made to stop Stella when she charged at howan earlier, but Rowan had signaled them to stand down with a single look
What in the world was happening now? Had Stella changed strategies and decided to use her good looks to ensnare Rowan and further her wicked ploys? Or had she hadden poison in her mouth and was now giving Rowan a kiss of death?
But no one was as shocked as Mowan
When Jar saw Stella charging toward him, he thought she wanted to slap him. With a barely noticeable sneer on his face, he told his bodyguards to stand down. He was curious about what the disgraced young lady, who had been thrown out of her family, would do.
Was she going to such lengths for Handy? What an idiot!
