StarNovelChapter 2486 Determined to take control of the conversation, she asked, Why did you bringhere, Mr.
Archer? Do you have any conflict of interest with Matthew? Howard remained unfazed by her apparent coldness.
Calmly, he said, I dont have any interest in Matthew.
You, on the other hand... Lets just say my feelings for you are different.
Stellas face darkened in anger, and she warningly said, Watch yourself, Mr.
Archer! You misunderstand me.
My feelings are not of the nature you assthem to be.
I just admire your talent and courage.
If you do decide to leave Matthew, I will do everything within my power to help you.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella took a step toward the chair and said in a voice as hard as stone, ILL say it again.
Release me, Mr. Archer.
I dont need you meddling in my life.
With that, she turned around and stormed out of the room, unwilling to waste her ton this strange man.
In the study, Declan stared at the partition across from him.
Sanford stepped out slowly from behind it.
Declan fixed his gaze on Sanford and asked, Sanford, you heard everything, didnt you? Id advise you to move on from Stella while you still have the chance.
Our focus should be on achieving what we chere for.
Sanfords face remained composed as he replied calmly, Youre overthinking this.
My actions toward Stella are simply out of respect for Kori.
Declan scoffed coldly, the sound dripping with disbelief.
A dangerous glint flickered in his eyes as he said, If we cant get the information I need from Stella, I wont hesitate to keep her confined here for the rest of her life.
If I cant have what I want, no one else will either.
Sanford remained silent, but his emotions surged like a raging storm beneath his composed exterior.
Declan stood, adjusted his clothes with deliberate precision, and announced, The upcoming birthday banquet is your last opportunity.
If you fail to get what I need by then, III handle Stella myself.
Without waiting for a response, Declan strode out of the study, leaving Sanford standing there, his anger simmering as he watched the door close behind him.
Moments Later, Sanfords phone buzzed.
It was Lindsay.
Annoyance flickered across his face as he hesitated, and then finally answered the call.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn the other end, Lindsays voice was excited and hurried.
Sanford! Stellas gone-shes missing! This is your chance to make her disappear for good.
Make sure she never finds her way back into Matthews life. You know as well as I do, once shes gut of then picture,can finally have Matthew all to myself... Lindsay rambled on, her words spilling out in a frantic stream, but when Sanford remained silent, her nerves began to fray.
She paused, and then asked sharply, Sanford, are you backing out on me? If you dont help me, I make sure Stella finds out the truth about everything.
If I cant have happiness, neither can she! In a matter of minutes, Sanford both had endured threats from b Declan and Lindsay, and his patience was at its breaking point. Anger flared in his chest, and his jaw tightened as he gritted out, Dont worry.
III keep my word.
At Howards birthday banquet, just make sure Matthew is there.
By then, your dream will beca reality.
Relief flooded Lindsays voice as she exclaimed eagerly, Alright! Ill make it happen.
I promise, Ill keep your secret safe..
Sanford, unwilling to hear another word, cut the call abruptly.
