Chapter 357: Taking Advantage of the Absence of the Wretched Man

Daniel paused for a while before saying, “Ms. Radomil should have misunderstood. Although I really
want to apologize to Sherry sincerely, the purpose I am coming here is not to look for her.”

Stella slightly tilted her head sideways. She seemed like she didn’t understand his words.

But apparently, Daniel didn’t intend to tell her the truth either. He just said, “Let me emphasize my
words once again. You just need to remember that we are friends who should be united.”

However, Stella smiled when she heard his words, “I think that the reason why friends can be called
friends is they are honest with each other and trust each other. What do you think?”

Daniel coughed and he didn’t know how he should answer her.

Stella said, “I know you are guarded against me, so you are not willing to tell me many things, just like
Emmett. Although I don’t know what is your purpose, or what are you all thinking. I won’t bother or care
about those things. But at the same time, I also hope that we don’t cross the line between us.”

“Ms. Radomil, I…”

“Actually, I’ve thought about the reason you deliberately moved here before. Since you’re not coming to
look for Sherry, then you should be looking for me, right?” Sherry added, “No matter what is the
purpose you are coming here, even if you are trying to harm the Steward family. Anyway, for me,
although you are not an enemy, you are also definitely not considered a friend that I can make friends
with.”

Stella said the words very dryly, and even with a bit of determination. Daniel couldn’t help but smile,
“It’s not like that.”

But he couldn’t just tell Stella that the reason he had come here was actually to protect her.



Not only would that it would backfire, but it would also make things to be more complicated.

He sighed soundlessly, “Ms. Radomil, I know that no matter what I say. It will be hard for you to let go
of your guard against me. It’s just that I can swear that I really don’t mean to harm you in any way.”

Stella said, “I know you won’t harm me, but … I still want to say that sentence again… If you don’t like
Sherry, you should try to avoid meeting her in the future.”

“I’ll take note of what you said.”

Stella nodded slightly at him. After thanking him, she left.

Daniel leaned against the railing, tapping his long fingers on the handrail. He knew that if he continued
to be like this, sooner or later, Stella would really suspect that he had bad intentions for her.

Initially, it was appropriate for Emmett to be with her. But now, he was the one who had to try his best to
find an excuse.

Not only that, he was known as scum.

He thought that he really sacrificed a lot.

…

After Stella was back at the studio, Sherry ran towards her when she had just sat down, “How did the
draw go today? Are you confident that you will win the final round?”

Stella said, “My opponent will be Modesty.”

Sherry was speechless.

She poohed, “That’s a bit of bad luck.”



Stella also felt that it would be quite challenging for the trip. She leaned back in her chair and stretched
herself before saying slowly, “I don’t have a clue right now, but the good thing is that we have ten days
to prepare for this competition.”

Sherry frowned, “How about Modesty? Who is the one she is going to face?”

Stella thought for a moment, “I think it’s Arthur.”

Sherry didn’t know as many people in the jewellery design industry as Stella did, except for those
people who were very famous, so she asked, “Who’s Arthur?”

“He’s quite talented too. His work has won many international awards.”

“Anyway, I don’t know about the rule of the competition that you are participating in. I am really
confused.” Sherry patted Stella’s shoulder and said in a low voice, “Go for it, beauty! Become the
champion of the competition!”

Hearing her words, Stella couldn’t help but smile, “Isn’t “beauty” your title. How come you’re calling me
like that?”

Before this, Sherry’s WeChat name had always been “Magical Beauty”. After experiencing the matter
which she felt very embarrassed at that time, she quickly changed her name overnight, “It doesn’t
matter. Now, you are the “beauty”. You must do your best and become the champion!”

Hearing her mentioning this, Stella suddenly said, “Do you still have contact with the child?”

Sherry sneered for a moment and said, “No, he deleted me. Probably because his mother thought I
was too unreliable. I only realized that the child is just trying to make me treat him to a barbecue!”

If this matter was spread out to the public, her reputation would be ruined.



Stella couldn’t help but grimace, “It could also be that Clarence was too fierce when he sent him home,
making his parents think that we were a bunch of bad guys.”

Sherry said seriously, “I agree. It’s definitely the wretched man’s problem, not mine.”

Stella was speechless.

Sherry was just about to leave when she thought of something else and walked back towards Stella,
“Was the quarrel between you and Clarence so serious this time?”

Stella didn’t realize that Sherry was asking her for a moment, “Huh?”

“I saw that he hadn’t called you for a few days and didn’t send you flowers. Therefore, I think you two
had a quite serious quarrel this time.”

Hearing Sherry’s words, Stella instantly felt a bit helpless, “We didn’t quarrel. I just don’t want to see
him.”

She felt annoyed seeing him.

Sherry felt that he could kinda understand Stella’s mood right now, “Good, while the wretched man is
not around, you can relax for a couple of days. My friends have organized a party and I hear that there
will be a handsome guy. Let’s go and have some fun together.”

Stella shook her head and looked at her computer, displaying a tired look, “I won’t be going. I still have
to draw my manuscript.”

“Didn’t you say there you have ten days to prepare for it, plus you have no ideas now right? Go out and
relax. Maybe you will find some ideas. Let’s go!”



Sherry didn’t say anything. She directly pulled Stella with her and left, “Tonight, we’re not going home
without getting drunk!”

…

At 8 p.m, the sky was already dark.

Sherry parked her car on the side of the street. Looking at the crowded place next to her, she couldn’t
help but tsk, “It’s true that there are many young people here. If a girl wants to find a boyfriend, she still
has to come to this kind of place.”

Stella said, “You’d better forget about it. Don’t fall in love with a scum again.”

“A handsome man is not considered as a scum. It’s just that his heart is broken into many pieces, and
each piece of his heart falls in love with a different person.”

Hearing her words, Stella was speechless.

She felt that Sherry was talking nonsense.

When they got off the car, Sherry led Stella forward all the way. After they passed through many
people, they finally stopped in front of a booth.

A girl reached out to greet them, “Sherry, what took you so long to be here. We’re ready for the drinks.”
Saying that, she then looked at Stella, “You are Stella, right? Nice to meet you, I am Doreen Christ.”

Stella smiled faintly, “Hi, Doreen.”

There were other people in the booth, and Doreen introduced them to Stella and Sherry in turn.

Sherry glanced at the people for a moment and asked, “Where’s the handsome guy you were talking
about?”



Doreen whispered, “Don’t be so rushed. Handsome guys are always the last to arrive. Just be patient
and wait!”
