Chapter 128 Stirring the Pot
Tessa heard Stella say she was going to stir up something big, and her lips twitched in response.
Stella hung up. “I’ve been swamped lately–I didn’t even think of using that woman.”
If Abraham hadn’t shown up, she probably wouldn’t have remembered.

Just as Stella got
back to the studio, Abel sent over all the info on Jonathan’s woman

Just as Stella was heading to her office, Kimmy stopped her. “Ms. Dawson, I called you three times. Why didn’t you answer!”
“Phone was on silent. What’s up?”

Stella was stunned. Susan? Again? Looks like it’s time to stir something up with the Reed family, otherwise Susan wouldn’t keep bothering me like this.

“How long’s she been here?”
Kimmy said. “She’s been waiting for two hours.”

“Steak.”
Not that great, so she didn’t eat much.

She wasn’t into steak, and if she couldn’t have her favorite food, she didn’teare much for anything else.
Abraham said, “I’m downstairs. You coming down, or should I come up?”
Stella asked, “You’re looking for me now?”
“Yeah. Got something for you.”
