Elnora’s voice was calm and steady, but her presence carried an unspoken pressure that made everyone feel
tense.
Kamron’s gaze became more profound as he looked at Elnora.
Elnora ignored everyone present, picking up a pen from the table and twirling it between her fingers.
No one said a word.
Albert stared at Elnora, his eyes intense and filled with complicated emotions.
Elnora sat in silence, waiting.
Kamron was about to smooth things over, but before he could get a word out, Elnora spoke up in a calm, almost detached tone.
“Is there a reason you’re so quiet, Mr. Campbell?” she asked.
As she spoke, her gaze briefly lingered on Albert before moving to Stella.
“Or perhaps, Ms. Taylor, do you have anything to add?” she continued.
Stella felt Albert’s intense gaze on her and barely dared to breathe.
She bit her lip softly and shook her head.
Elnora nodded slightly, her voice cool and even as she spoke.
“If there’s nothing else to discuss, shall we go ahead and sign the agreement?” she asked.
Kamron spoke up with a smile.
“Yes,” he said.
Elnora gave a professional smile and took the agreement back from Albert.
“Ms. Taylor, please review the terms. If everything looks good, you can sign,” she said.
Elnora bypassed Kamron and handed the agreement directly to Stella.
Albert abruptly stood up, his face grim as he walked out of Elnora’s office.
Elnora didn’t even bat an eye.
Kamron watched her reaction, quietly amused.
Usually, it was women who were left at a loss in front of Albert, not the other way around.

Kamron smirked and teased, “Ms. Finley, Albert’s upset because you made him a bargaining chip. Aren’t you going to comfort him?”
Elnora met Kamron’s gaze, her tone calm and indifferent.
“I’m not the one who made him a bargaining chip,” she replied.
Her gaze shifted to Stella as she spoke.
Stella’s gaze flickered with a hint of awkwardness as she spoke softly.
“Once the agreement’s signed, I’ll try to talk things over with Albert,” she said.
Elnora didn’t respond.
Kamron reviewed the agreement and, finding no issues, gestured for Stella to sign.
After Stella signed, she handed the agreement to Elnora.
Elnora picked up the pen and signed her name at the bottom without hesitation.
Kamron looked at her signature and smiled, offering a compliment.
“You know what they say, handwriting shows the person. Ms. Finley, your signature is just as free-spirited as you are,” he said.
‘Free-spirited?’ Elnora wondered to herself.
Elnora didn’t feel that way about herself.
She’d never really been carefree.
From a young age, Cole had raised her as his successor, and every move she made had to be calculated.
Over time, it just became second nature to her.
She’d never done anything reckless or outrageous.
If any other heiress had been in her place when Zack and Mila got engaged, she would’ve caused a huge scene and turned the whole engagement upside down.
But Elnora never did.
She didn’t want to be the subject of everyone’s ridicule.
She never once brought it up with anyone.
She just endured it, keeping everything bottled up inside.
So, she was never the kind of person who acted recklessly or lived without restraint.

Kamron totally misread her. He really had no clue.
But after all, Kamron was the investor Stella brought on board.
As an investor, he was supposed to generate revenue for Supernova Entertainment.

Besides, his investment was in Stella personally. The agreement didn’t even mention profit sharing.
It was clear Kamron was here for Stella, not just for business.
Anyone in a high position cared about profit. There was no way around it.
She had no idea what kind of business Kamron actually did.
But honestly, no one could really ignore profit.
If he truly didn’t care about profit, there was only one reason.
He’d spend big just for someone he liked.
It happens all the time in this business.
Some wealthy businessmen fall for a young actress and spend a fortune to boost her value, turning her into a star overnight.
But judging by Kamron’s behavior, he didn’t seem to have any interest in Stella that way.
Elnora considered the possibility, but didn’t dwell on it.
Elnora passed the signed agreement to Stella.
Stella reached out and took it, her face much more solemn compared to Elnora’s easygoing attitude.
Kamron watched as Stella tucked the agreement carefully into her bag, then smiled, teasing, “Relax. You’ve got Albert backing you, you won’t lose.”
Stella took a steady breath and nodded, a bit more composed now.
“Yeah, Albert’s got my back,” she said.
Elnora raised an eyebrow.
Her gaze wasn’t on Stella. She had her eyes fixed on Kamron.
If Kamron didn’t know she was Albert’s wife, maybe it’d make sense.
He knew perfectly well who she was, yet still had the nerve to say that right in front of her.
‘How does an idiot like this even make it in this industry?’ Elnora thought to herself.
Kamron caught Elnora’s gaze and only then seemed to realize he’d put his foot in his mouth, his face full of

apology.

“Sorry, Ms. Finley. I suppose you don’t mind, do you?” he said.
Elnora’s expression stayed calm, her reply cool and indifferent.
“I don’t mind, but hearing it over and over does get a bit tiresome,” Elnora replied coolly.
Kamron hadn’t expected Elnora to be so straightforward.
He thought she’d at least keep things polite and maintain her composure.

His expression stiffened for a moment, then he quickly smiled and said, “My apologies, Ms. Finley.
“It’s all my fault. Let me treat you to dinner as an apology for my slip-up, Ms. Finley. What do you say?”
Elnora waved her hand. “No need for that, Mr. Campbell. If anyone’s buying dinner, it should be me.
“You’re investing in my company’s artist without asking for anything in return. If I didn’t even offer you a meal, it’d make me look stingy as the one in charge.”
Kamron smiled and agreed. “Alright, Ms. Finley, you really are a refreshing person.
“Let me add your number, and I’ll wait for you to let me know.”
As he spoke, Kamron pulled out his phone to add Elnora’s contact.
But Elnora didn’t give him her number. Instead, she looked at Kamron and said in a calm, detached tone, “Aren’t you and Mr. Campbell good friends? I’ll have him reach out to you.”
Kamron froze for a moment, then sheepishly put his phone away.
“I didn’t even think of that,” he muttered.
Elnora didn’t say a word. She simply stood up and showed them out of her office.
When they reached the doorway, Stella paused and turned to Elnora.
“Ms. Finley, now that the agreement’s signed, there’s something I need to mention,” Stella said. “To keep things fair, let’s make sure there’s no underhanded tactics or malicious suppression between us.”
Elnora looked at Stella, her face impassive, showing no emotion.
“Are you afraid I’ll play dirty and try to hold you back, Ms. Taylor?” Elnora asked.
Stella pressed her lips together, staying silent, but her silence was basically an admission.
Elnora glanced at her, her tone light and nonchalant.
“You’re worrying too much, Ms. Taylor,” Elnora said.

“If I really wanted to mess with you, you wouldn’t even be standing here, let alone signing a wager contract with me,” Elnora said.
Stella was just a rookie with zero fanbase.
If Elnora wanted to sideline her, she could do it whenever she felt like it.
Albert wasn’t about to turn against Elnora just because of Stella.
Even though she and Albert hadn’t been together long, she knew that for sure.
Albert might look laid-back, but he’s not the type to do anything crazy.
