Chapter 59 The Apology That Means Nothing
There. I came, and I apologized. That should be the end of it, right?
That was what Sharon thought.
But the next moment Louis’s voice grew colder. “And?”
And?
Sharon quickly remembered everything Louis had said before they came here.
It was obvious now: I wasn’t just here to apologize. I had to get Stella’s forgiveness.
Staring into Stella’s mocking eyes, Sharon felt her entire chest burn with anger.
The way Stella was acting now. was forgiveness even possible!
Anyway…

Sharon closed her
eyes. “Can you forgive me?”
The words made her blood boil.
She thought, if Stella had any sense at all, she would realize that even my brother—someone with Louis‘ status—had come personally.
If she knew what was good for her, she’d leave her here.
But… Stella calmly put down her glass, ignored Sharon, and turned her eyes to Louis.
“Mr. Louis, your sister still seems quite stubborn. Would you say this is what sincerity looks like?”
“You…”
Sharon’s temper nearly exploded at those words.
Stella’s eyes remained on Louis. “Mr. Louis?”
His face darkened. He glanced at Sharon, whose posture clearly showed no real remorse.
His tone was sharper now, full of warning. “This is your last chance.”
Sharon felt her heart sink.
Facing Stella at this moment, she felt nothing but humiliation
Fine. She wants to play it that way? Then don’t expect to ever live peacefully in the Reed family again.
I will make sure that Jonathan knows everything that has happened today. And then let’s see if the Reeds would ever give Stella another…
The word “cent hadn’t even fully formed in her mind when she paused.
Looking around at the luxurious office and the tailored professional attire Stella was wearing today…
Sharon suddenly understood why all the recent warnings from the Reeds had fallen on deaf ears.
It is because Stella didn’t need a single cent from the Reeds.
Of course she did. That explained why she dared to act so arrogantly and disregard everything they tried to pressure her with
Sharon

Stella finally spoke. “Mr. Louis, if your sister doesn’t want to, don’t force her. This kind of reluctant apology, and you still expect me to forgive her? What do you think, Mr. Louis? Should I or shouldn’t I?”
Her tone was light, but there was no mistaking the undertone.
If she refused. it seemed harsh
But if she agreed, is Sharon’s apology even worth forgiving?
In one sentence, Stella had thrown the decision back into Louis hands.
His chest rose and fell in frustration.
He glared at Sharon. “Get out.”
I knew exactly what Stella had meant.
Sharon would not be forgiven.
She was joined at the hip with Lillian and had been making Stella’s life miserable long before last night’s incident.
Last night was nothing compared to the past.
Then he turned a blind eye.
Now that Abraham had shown up and personally made amends, things were different. If Stella really had Abraham behind her, whether or not she forgave Sharon depended solely on her mood.
And Stella had every right to be stubborn.
But Sharon, clueless as ever, still didn’t realize that and yet had the nerve to…
Louis‘ eyes
grew colder as he stared at her.
Sharon didn’t want to stay anyway. She quickly took the opportunity to run out of the office.
When only Stella and Louis were left, he pulled out a cigarette, but when he saw no ashtray on the table, he put it back in his pocket
He got to the point. “Ms. Dawson, may I ask, what exactly is your relationship with Mr. Abraham?”
Stella replied with another question. “What do you think?”
She didn’t bother to give me a real answer,
Louis looked at her. Their eyes met, and there was a faint glint of amusement in hers
That look made him lose focus for a second.
He raised his hands in a slight shrug. “Your problem with Sharon should not affect my partnership with him.”
“I do not interfere with your partnership, nor will I influence his decisions.”
Is that so?” Louis asked.
Tve already told him not to get so worked up about me. As for Sharon, well, she’s your responsibility to manage.”
With that, Stella’s position was clear.
