Chapter 443

Fortunately, the mark was hidden under her jaw, close to her ear. Her hair was draped on her shoulder,
so no one should be able to see unless they looked closely. That was why Roger had not noticed it.

If Roger had seen it, the consequences would be serious. She would not be able to explain herself.
After all, it was obvious to know where she got the mark from. It was impossible to fool Roger.

Stella subconsciously tried to raise her collar a little to cover the red mark, but Justin shook his head.

“It’s still easy to see, and it’s more obvious now.’

He suggested, “Why don’t you put on a scarf? It’s winter anyway, so it won’t raise suspicion.” Stella
panicked. “I’ll go and buy one now…”

“No need.” Justin took out a gift box from the drawer and handed it to her. “If you don’t mind, take this.
It was meant for Tina, but I couldn’t give it to her because we split up not long after. I don’t need it
anymore. If you don’t mind, just take it. Otherwise, it’ll be wasted anyway.”

Stella hesitated a little, but she accepted it in the end. “Thank you. I’ll return it to you.”

“No, it’s fine.” Justin rubbed his brow and felt a little troubled. “I was going to get rid of this anyway,” he
said and suddenly sighed a little. “If you don’t take it, I’ll probably throw it away.”

“Why don’t you just give it to Tina?”

“With our relationship now, I shouldn’t give her anything else.”

“But I think…” Stella hesitated a little and said, “Your relationship with Tina doesn’t seem to be as
terrible as you said. It’s not like the two of you don’t have any feelings for each other anymore. Why



don’t you try to get back together?”



Justin suddenly looked at her. “Ella, did you misunderstand something? I’ve divorced her, and that
means I have no feelings for her anymore. I can’t go on living with her. I’m not the kind of man who
would pursue you while having feelings for her.”

“I don’t mean that…” Stella waved her hand and tried to explain herself. “I mean…”

She pursed her lips. “Nevermind. I shouldn’t interfere with your relationship. I just hope you won’t have
any regrets.”

“Okay. Let’s not talk about the two of us anymore,” Justin interrupted her. “You should put on the scarf.
Robb will be back soon.”

Stella responded, “Thanks for the scarf. I’ll transfer the money to you, then.” Justin sighed and laughed.
“Do you have to draw such a clear line between us?” Stella said with a smile, “I thought you should
know me by now.” The two of them were able to talk like normal friends again. Not long after, Roger
came back

with the stamped papers. He was a little stunned to see Stella wearing a scarf. “Where did you get
this?”

Stella said, “I felt a little cold earlier. Mr. Hall had an extra scarf here, so he gave it to me.”

Roger pursed his lips. He looked at her, then at Justin, but he said nothing. After he put all the
paperwork together, they bade goodbye to Justin. When they got outside, Roger asked her, “Did Mr.
Hall give this to you?” Stella knew what was in his mind. “Don’t overthink. I’ll transfer the money to him



later. I won’t have anything to do with him.” “That’s not what I meant…” Roger rubbed his nose. “I’m not
against people pursuing you. I just think… I like Mr. Hall too, but he used to be married and has a son.”

He put his arm around Stella’s shoulders. “I think you can find someone better.”
