Chapter 671
It wasn’t until Weston questioned her again that she came to her senses and answered, “It was nothing. It was just
a colleague from the crew.”
He paused for a while, then Stella said, “I’ve been out too long, so I’ll hang up first. We’ll talk about it later!”
She was getting braver and dared to hand up on him directly.
Weston put down the phone and stared at his phone screen with darkened eyes.
On the balcony.
A gust of wind blew, making Stella more awake.
She shook her head. Fortunately, Yates had come to remind her just now; otherwise, standing here for too long
would lead to suspicion.

call?”
She nodded.
Yates went up to her and walked side by side with her.” Did I scare you just now?”
Stella smiled. “It’s fine.”
“It was too dark just now, and I didn’t see you on the phone. So, I thought you were standing there alone. Sorry…”
“It’s okay.” Stella looked down and deliberately kept a distance from him.
He saw it and said helplessly, “Am I a monster that you have to avoid me like this?”
She was stunned by his sudden question and shook her head. “I’m not avoiding you. But your manager probably
wouldn’t want you to get too close to me.” “… You can tell?” Yates suddenly turned around, shoved his hands in his
pockets, and gazed into her eyes as he stepped back slowly.
Stella could only slow down and follow his pace when he was walking backward. “I think everyone could tell. But I
understand that the entertainment industry is complicated, so it’s alright to be on guard…”
“You know that’s not what I mean.” He looked down at her face; his eyes flickered. “After so many years, I should
have a little personal space. I can discuss work matters with him, but I don’t want him to control me too much.”
When she heard this, she raised her head, somewhat surprised.
Logically speaking, he shouldn’t talk to her about this.
These were his feelings. “I don’t know the situation between the two of you very well…” She pondered her words
before saying, “How about you go back and discuss it with your manager?”
Yates sighed, “You seem to be very wary of me.”
“Nonsense.” She smiled before saying, “Don’t overthink.
The two of them strolled.

Yates stared at her and suddenly stopped in his tracks.” Ella.”
He called out her name.
She looked at him curiously and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, but Yates felt slightly different from his usual self.
He raised his hand and tucked her hair behind her ear.” Your hair is a little messy.” Before Stella could react, she
saw that he had reached out his hand and immediately took a step back. “Yates…”
She was startled. She didn’t expect him to do that all of a
sudden.
She didn’t know how to react.
“I can do it myself.” After speaking, she stroked her hair a few times and lowered her head. “It’s getting late.
Angelina and the others are still waiting for me, so I’d better head in now…”
A trace of hurt flashed in his eyes as he saw the refusal in her actions. “Go ahead.”
