The person who sent the ssage is nad Sue Woods.
Stella Grant’s college classmate and best friend.
Sue Woods is a native of Veridia. She initially went to Brynnfield for love, but when that relationship ended, she unexpectedly gained the friendship of ’Stella Grant’.
Stella parked the car, picked up her phone, unlocked it, and opened the chat with Sue Woods.
Before she could reply, Sue sent another ssage.
This ti it was a photo.
In the photo, Flynn Shepherd was kissing a woman. The background was a parking lot; the light was dim, but the photo was still clear.
Stella opened the photo and zood in, then tapped the screen and sent a voice ssage to Sue: We already broke up.
Sue sent two question marks: ??
Stella: It’s a bit complicated, hard to explain in a few words. I’ll explain later.
Sue: But you guys broke up, and you still went for a drive last night??
Stella: It wasn’t him last night.
Sue: ...
Even without seeing her, Stella could imagine Sue’s expression at that mont.
Stella curled her lips and sent Sue one last voice ssage: I have sothing to do, I’ll talk to you tonight.
Once Stella sent the ssage, Sue didn’t press further and replied with an ’OK’ emoji.
Stella put her phone in her pocket, picked up the clutch from the passenger seat, and took out a mirror to quickly touch up her makeup.
Putting Flynn aside, Omni and Rhodes Group have always worked together; making a good impression on partners is a basic etiquette for everyone in the workplace.
After finishing her makeup, Stella opened the car door and got out.
Taking the elevator from the underground parking lot directly to the floor with the private rooms, Stella saw Flynn smoking in the hallway with a colleague as soon as she stepped out of the lift.
The colleague saw Stella first and gave Flynn an eye signal.
Flynn turned, saw Stella, and walked over, giving her a light hug on the shoulder and asked affectionately yet hypocritically, "Why did you leave work so late today?"
Stella played along, "A project held up for a while."
Flynn, "Do you have a eting early tomorrow?"
Stella, "Yes."
Flynn nodded, "Then don’t try to outdrink them later."
Flynn acted the role of a caring boyfriend impeccably; anyone watching would give him an award for ’Best Caring Guy.’
After their performance as a sweet couple, Flynn led Stella to introduce her to the male colleague.
The colleague reached out first, "Howard Wright."
Stella had a knack for rembering faces, smiled back, and shook hands, "I rember you; you made the PPT for that project last ti."
Howard was surprised, "That was just a brief proposal; you rembered that?"
Stella, "The proposal was small, but I could tell the person who made it was skilled. I usually rember impressive people."
Hearing Stella’s words, Howard’s smile beca more genuine, "Manager Grant is truly well-known for her eloquence in our circle."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the three were about to return to the room when the elevator doors opened again, and Silas Sutton arrived with a group of people.
Silas walked ahead, his shirt collar slightly open, with his suit jacket draped over his arm.
Soone beside Silas said sothing to him.
Silas smirked slightly, his expression ambiguous, "President Adler plays quite the wild ga."
The person beside him, thinking Silas was interested in the topic, smiled even more ingratiatingly and leaned in to continue, "There’s even wilder stuff. President Sutton, are you interested? If you are, I can arrange it right away."
