Chapter 104
She also had the evidence she had gathered back at Moore Enterprises–proof of all the shady tactics Percy had used over the
years.
This gift was going to be spectacular.
After getting everything ready, she was about to leave but hesitated.
The Harlow and Moore families wouldn’t take kindly to being backed into a corner.
Maybe she should call her uncle and bring a few extra bodyguards, just in case?
Before she could make a decision, the doorbell rang.
Stellar frowned. Who would be here this early?
She walked over and opened the door.
“Well, well!”
The woman at the door casually pushed down her sunglasses, revealing a pair of striking, mischievous eyes.
“Good morning, sweetheart.”
“Suzy?” Stellar was taken aback.
“What are you doing here?”
Suzy arched a brow, looking completely justified in her presence.
“I saw the news about the Harlow–Moore engagement party. It’s been all over the media for the past two weeks.
“You’d think they were announcing a royal wedding with the way they’re making a spectacle out of it. It’s obviously just a ploy to
strengthen their family ties.”
She scoffed in disdain.
“You got an invitation too, didn’t you? No way Yvonne would pass up a chance to humiliate you in public.”
“But that’s exactly why you have to go,” she said, linking her arm through Stellar’s.
“And you need to show up looking absolutely untouchable. Lucky for you, I’ve got a little surprise.”
Without giving her a chance to protest, Suzy whisked her out the door and straight to her studio.
Inside, an entire team of stylists was already waiting.
I pulled some strings and brought in the best–world–renowned stylists, makeup artists, designers. These are the people who

create iconic looks for A–list celebrities,” Suzy said, introducing them one by one.
Then, w
with a dramatic wave of her hand, she commanded, “Alright, everyone, I need my girl to be the most stunning woman at
her ex’s engagement party. She’s got to outshine everyone else!”
Stellar let out a helpless laugh but had no choice as she was promptly shoved into a chair, left at the mercy of the professionals.
By noon, with Suzy by her side, Stellar arrived at the engagement party right on time.
She stepped into the venue wearing a custom–made gown in an ethereal shade of blue, its fabric adorned with shimmering jewels that caught the light with every movement.
Her long, cascading waves framed her delicate features, the soft curls at the ends adding a touch of effortless allure.
She looked like something out of a dream–an ethereal vision that took one’s breath away.
The moment she entered, the entire room took notice.
“Wow, who is that? She’s gorgeous!”
“Never seen her before, but she’s definitely making an entrance!”
Not only the guests but even Percy found himself momentarily stunned.
Every time they crossed paths after their breakup, Stellar seemed to shine even brighter than before.
Why had he never seen this side of her back then?
Yvonne, on the other hand, was seething
That shameless woman had walked in and immediately stolen the spotlight.
This was her night, yet Stellar had just slapped her in the face without even saying a word.
Grinding her teeth, Yvonne tried to compose herself, but she had no time to dwell on Stellar.
Right now, her entire focus was locked onto the man standing in front of her.
“Mr. Ward, welcome to my engagement party. I was a bit impolite last time, but I hope we’ll have the chance to collaborate in the future.”
Since Stephen had shown up at the event, it meant he was interested in building ties with the Harlow and Moore families.
That was her chance.
If she played this right, she could snatch this exceptional man away from Stellar.
But Stephen didn’t even spare her a glance.
His gaze had already drifted past her, landing on Stellar across the room.
His expression softened just slightly.
The only reason he was here tonight was because of her.
No one else
e mattered.

His voice was cold and dismissive. “Not interested.”
Without another word, he stepped past Yvonne, heading straight toward Stellar.
Yvonne stood frozen, her face twisting with rage, her eyes burning with jealousy as she watched him walk away.
What the hell did that mean?
She had gone out of her way to be polite, even pulling Percy over to make conversation all because Stephen was the CEO of Brighton Group.
And yet, he had completely brushed her off?
Just like that?
