Chapter 228

Yvonne did not want to talk to Stella about these. It would upset her.

The training center was scheduled to be closed in a month. She did not know where Stella could work
and felt bad for her. There was no need to upset her with the other problems.

“Never mind that. I’ll pay you two times your salary.” Yvonne knew the money was a drop in the bucket
compared to what Weston could provide for her. Stella was already with Weston. She was not worried
about money anymore. Even so, the wages were not the same as Weston’s allowance. She figured
that if Ella had more money with her, she would have more confidence. Stella understood Yvonne’s
kind intention and felt complicated. She hoped she was a strong woman with courage. At least she
could repay Yvonne’s kindness and not let Yvonne be humiliated by her family.

The other colleagues eventually arrived at the center. Yvonne had already explained the situation to
them on the phone. They did not say much and just exchanged a look There was still a month to go
before the closure, but this gathering felt like a farewell. Stella hated the atmosphere and stood in the
corner by herself. She waited until it was almost over, then went over to Yvonne. Yvonne saw her
coming and asked her, “Shall we talk?”

Stella nodded.

Yvonne said, “I gave everyone a day off today. I’ve instructed the finance department to calculate every
staff’s salary too. We’ll try to complete the teaching plans as far as possible within this month. I’ll talk to
the parents later.”

Stella did not know what to say. She had not been working here for a long time, but she had gotten
used to the environment here.



She loved standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows here and watching the traffic downstairs to
relax after the class. Yvonne noticed her silence and felt a little sad. “It’s fine. We’ll meet again ” “From
now on, you stay at home and study. Don’t come out and meet with bad people.” A man’s low voice
suddenly interrupted the two. Yvonne turned towards the voice and saw Lucas. She did not know when
Lucas had arrived. Lucas strode to her.

When Stella saw Lucas, she stood up subconsciously. Lucas did not pay attention to Stella or look at
her. He only focused his gaze on Yvonne.

“Didn’t you say you’d be out for only two hours? Look at the time now. Why are you not leaving yet?”
He could not get over the fact that Yvonne took Stella to a dangerous place to have fun. He had
warned her many times not to go to such places, but Yvonne did not listen to him. Worst of all, a man
had his eye on Yvonne at the dangerous place. As a result, he had to teach Yvonne a lesson when she
came home. “Don’t you need to work? Why did you come in the middle of the day?”

Yvonne was a bit angry. “I said I’d handle this myself. Besides, the training center is closing, so I can’t
meet Ella much after this. Must you keep an eye on me to this extent?”

“The moment I stop keeping an eye on you, you’ll end up at a place like The Dog House. Don’t you
have any sense of self-awareness?” Lucas reached out and pinched Yvonne’s face.

He warned with a cold voice, “Don’t ever go to that kind of place again.” “Why not! Don’t you go to
those places too?” Yvonne found his demand absurd. She felt guilty for going to The Dog House, but
she bumped into Lucas there. He went to the same place as she did, so why did he only reprimand
her?

She did not want Lucas to think of Ella badly, so she put up with his nonsense.



The center was going to be closed, so she would have less chance to see Ella soon. Why should she
put up with it any longer?
