Chapter 771: Call Me Brother-in-law

After shooting the commercial, they still had to take promo photos.

All day long, they hadn't finished shooting by 10:30 pm.

Seeing that it was getting late, Stella came up to Sherry and asked, "Does Chan still need to shoot?"

Sherry flipped through the shooting schedule, "I think that's it. He's almost done with his shots."

Stella said, "Then I'll let him go back first. He has class tomorrow."

"Alright, let him go back." With that, Sherry waved his hand toward Channing and said, "Goodbye, little
handsome."

After Channing walked into the dressing room, he changed his clothes and hung them on the hanger
next to him.

He had just come out of the dressing room when he saw Stella standing at the door.

Stella asked, "What happened to you and Winnie?"

Channing replied, "What?"

Stella said, "You two looked weird during the shooting. There was something wrong with the
atmosphere."

Channing averted his gaze to the side and looked away, "Nothing."

"Did you confess your love to her and get rejected?"

Channing remained silent.

Seeing that he avoided answering, Stella assumed that this should be the case.



Channing said, "I didn't confess."

"Then what's going on?"

While walking forward, Channing said, "She knows about it."

Stella went out side by side with him and remained silent for a moment before continuing, "You didn't
seem to not want her to know either."

Channing didn't say anything and tacitly admitted.

Stella sighed, yes, people who fell in love with someone couldn't hide their affection in the eyes, but
also couldn't help but want to be closer to the one.

Especially for the case of Chassell, there was no way Channing would let it go just because Winnie
might find out.

Winnie would know about this sooner or later.

After walking to the doorway, Stella added, "And how did you guys talk about it?"

The rain had been continuing pattering outdoors, and unlike before, it was a bit chilly.

It looked like autumn was just around the corner.

Channing answered, "We didn't say anything, let's discuss this at another time."

Even he himself didn't know what the future would be like.

Stella was silent for a few seconds and just said, "Let's take a cab."

However, probably because it was raining and their shooting location was a bit remote, no driver came.



Channing put away his phone, "There's a subway station ahead, I'll walk there."

Stella stopped him. "That subway station is almost two kilometers away. It's raining so hard that if you
walk there, you'll catch a cold tomorrow. Let's wait a little longer. If there's still no driver answering, I'll
send you back later."

Channing took a look at the night rain, couldn't help but think of something.

At that moment, a laid-back male voice came from the side, "Can't get a cab?"

Stella turned her head, and only then did she realize that Clarence had arrived at some point. His Rolls
Royce was parked not far behind them.

For some reason, she thought he sounded quite mischievous.

Clarence stood next to Stella and said to Channing in a good mood, "Call me brother-in-law, then I'll
have the driver take you back."

Channing was rendered speechless.

So did Stella.

Channing withdrew his gaze and looked at Stella, "I have to go."

With that, he was ready to rush into the rain.

Clarence said, "Stop."

Channing looked back at Clarence.

Clarence added, "If you don't call me brother-in-law, don't you want to hear my son call you uncle
either."



Channing replied, "Let's wait until he has learned to speak."

After the words, Channing left directly.

Stella was trying so hard to hold back her laughter, tugging on the corner of Clarence's coat.

Clarence looked at her with dissatisfaction, "Why don't you scold him?"

Stella tried to stay calm, "Scold him for what? I think…he has a point and he can't take the loss…"

Clarence encircled her waist and dragged her into his arms, his black eyes narrowed dangerously as
he said in a husky voice, "Then aren't you at a big loss?"

Stella suddenly thought of the scenes where she had been forced or tricked by him to call him "Honey"
and a blush crept over her face.

She nudged Clarence gently and whispered, "Stop it, we're outside."

Clarence swept his gaze around, and after seeing that there was no one nearby, he lowered his head
and gave her a kiss on the lips. "Go back and make it up to me."

Stella was confused.

What did she owe him that she had to make up to him?

Clarence lifted his legs and walked toward the studio, "Let's go."

Stella walked behind him.

In the studio, everyone was taking a break and enjoying bubble tea and late-night snacks.



As soon as Clarence and Stella came in, the invisible air pressure immediately silenced all of the staff
who had been laughing and joking happily.

Sherry and Winnie spoke up one after another, trying to make the situation even more awkward.

Sherry said, "Mr. Conrad, thanks for buying the bubble tea!"

Winnie said, "Mr. Conrad, thanks for buying the food!"

Clarence was speechless.

With the two of them taking the lead, a group of staff members had also echoed their comments.

Clarence was obviously not used to this kind of atmosphere. He twitched his eyebrows as a pair of cold
eyes swept over them.

But the two initiators immediately slipped away.

With such an interruption, the atmosphere, which was tense just now, instantly eased down again.

The staff were all eating and doing their own thing.

Stella walked toward Sherry and stood beside her. "Sherry, can you pass me the photo that Chan took
at the beginning?"

Sherry said, "No problem."

She added, "I'll develop the photos tomorrow and give you a copy as well."

Stella nodded gently, "Alright."



Speaking of which, Sherry said to Winnie, "Chan is handsome, isn't he? He certainly won't embarrass
you as your partner."

After two seconds of silence, Winnie let out a dry laugh.

Stella coughed and diverted the subject, "How much longer will it take to finish shooting?"

Sherry said, "Take a ten-minute break and then continue shooting. I think we should be able to finish by
one o'clock."

Stella nodded gently, "Alright."

Sherry thought for a moment and said, "Stella, you may go back with Mr. Conrad now. We have nothing
more to do here, we will go back directly after the shooting."

"Let me wait for you guys and leave together."

Sherry spat out her tongue and whispered, "Actually, I want you to take Mr. Conrad away. Everyone is
quite nervous with his presence."

Stella turned her head to glance at Clarence and instantly got her message. Clarence was like a boss
coming here to inspect the employees, sitting there with an indifferent and expressionless face, making
people feel twitchy.

Stella chuckled, "Well, I've got to go."

After saying goodbye to Sherry and Winnie, Stella left with Clarence.

Clarence said, "Didn't you say you wanted to stay longer?"

Stella said in a lazy tone, "Thanks to Mr. Conrad, of course."



Clarence raised his eyebrows slightly. "In that case, shouldn't you thank me properly?"

Stella wanted to roll her eyes.

This man really couldn't be flattered, otherwise he would be too complacent with himself.

Shortly after getting into the car, Stella's phone vibrated a few times and it was Sherry who sent her the
photos.
