Love After Divorce by BELLA

Chapter 48:.
This damn man! Wasn’t that enough for him? The two of them were alone in the ladies’ room now. He was a man, and he was
trouble enough.
But just now, he had put her in the water before he left! Why had he personally asked her to come to his office? Wouldn’t it lead
to more misunderstandings?
“Stella, it looks like you really are having an affair with the president,” a voice called out, breaking the tension just as Stella
thought she might escape. A group of women gathered around her.
“Stella, what are you doing in the ladies’ room alone with the boss? You’ve even locked the door...”
“Yes... Yes... Are you with the boss?”
“Great. Now everyone was questioning her.
“Stella, you must be careful! The president has a fiancée! Don’t go too far!!!!
“Lily... You don’t understand! Some people go too far just for money. They don’t care about anything else,” Stella tried to explain.
To be honest, these people were no different from Sophia. They all judged others based on their own thoughts.
They had their mouths, and she couldn’t stop them from speaking. It was their business. What she could do was not let it affect
her. It was up to her whether she cared or not.
Stella went to the president’s office. At first, she didn’t want to go. But when she got to the secretary’s office, she saw that
everyone was gossiping about her. Besides, he was her boss, and couldn’t she disobey him? She couldn’t help but go there.
Inside the president’s office, no one knew when Sophia had left. But now, only the two of them were alone in the office.
RK was not sitting in his chairman’s chair, but on the sofa in the corner, with his long legs crossed. He was holding in his hands
something that looked like an ointment. Next to him was a set of clean clothes and a box of cotton swabs on the small table.
“Come here!”
She didn’t look up, as her eyes were fixed on reading the instructions on the bottle of ointment in her hands.

Stella lowered her head and hesitated for a moment, but for the sake of the clean clothes on the small table, she moved closer.
“Sit here!” RK motioned with his chin, indicating her to sit down. Stella said nothing and sat on the couch obediently.

When she sat down, RK held out his hand. Stella was so frightened that she quickly backed up on the couch. “You.... What are

you doing?” she asked nervously.
“I’ll apply the medicine!”
“No, thank you. I’ll do it myself.” Stella immediately sat down on the other end of the couch, in a position as if facing some kind of
ferocious beast. What did this man want to do?
Just a moment ago, his fiancée had poured coffee on him, and now? Was this his way of apologizing for his fiancée? It seemed
ridiculous to Stella.
She had suffered so much. Did this man want to make her happy? “Mr. Kingston, you’d better stay away from me,” Stella said. “I
don’t want to be misunderstood by your fiancée again!” This man was a gold-digger. However, she was the one suffering, not
him!
Before, when they were married, Sophia often came to visit her. But they were married, and Sophia was justified! But now... it
was different. She had never taken the initiative to approach this man! But this man had blamed her again and again!
Stella kept a safe distance between them and said, “Mr. Kingston, I think you should keep your distance from me in the future!
Everyone is talking about us in the company now. I know that you don’t care about the rumors, but I do!”. RK heard his words
and scoffed but said nothing. RK had no intention of explaining or answering anything about what Stella said.
He merely opened the bottle and dipped the medicine on the cotton swab, as if he hadn’t heard anything she said. In other
words, this man didn’t think it was worth mentioning these rumors in front of him!
“Stop! I’ll apply the medicine!” He said and sat down on the couch in her direction. He leaned close to her, and they were in the
same position as before. They were close to each other.
Stella felt uncomfortable all over. Those words... it seemed like she was the one having a tantrum. It seemed that she was willful
while the man was so generous that he didn’t mention what had happened earlier.

In the past, every time Sophia said something bad in front of RK, if he had “harassed” her, was this man also behaving like this
today? Or would he have noticed the quarrel between her and Sophia?
Just now, in the women’s restroom, they had been intimate enough with each other. If they continued to do so, Stella would push
his hand away. “Give me the medicine; I’ll do it myself!” Stella was stubborn.
It was clear that the man was not going to listen to her. He especially hated it when others did not follow his orders. Although the
words coming out of his mouth were light, his movements were forceful. “Can’t you sit properly?”
As he said this, RK forced his hand and wiped the ointment-coated cotton swab across the reddened area of her skin.
Stella felt a tingle as the cool ointment from the cotton swab touched her body, but it felt comfortable. Stella stiffened and did not
move.

She stopped struggling because she knew it didn’t affect him. But in that case, the atmosphere between them became even
stranger! She had already made it clear that she wanted to keep her distance from him, but why was this man approaching her
again and again?
Sometimes she didn’t even understand what he wanted. They were already divorced, and besides, he and Sophia were getting
married next month.
So why did he keep approaching her and doing this over and over again? Didn’t he know it would lead to misunderstandings?
“Let me see your wounds!” The words were as natural as could be, spoken lightly. It seemed he was so merciful, and it was a
glorious thing to check his wounds.
“You... Don’t go overboard!” Stella was furious and quickly pulled down her clothes, preventing him from seeing her wounds.
Damn man! Yesterday, he said his hand was injured... There were a lot of things she couldn’t do. She even asked him to apply
medicine! And today? It wasn’t wrong to medicate someone, but she could do it herself!
He smiled in satisfaction. The way he was looking at her was like a tiger teasing a cat. For a moment, Stella eyed him warily,
fearful that the bastard would do something outrageous to her.
RK stood up and put the ointment and cotton swab back on the small table. Then he pointed to the clothes on the table and said,
“Put these clothes on after you apply the medicine!”.

When he finished speaking, he pushed past the coffee table and sat in his chair behind the table, ignoring her! Stella pursed her
lips. She turned her back to him to prevent him from looking at her and applied the medicine to her skin.
Once the ointment was applied, she picked up her clothes from the bedside table and went out to change. She thought it would
be better for her to change clothes in the bathroom. When she finished changing, she went to the secretary’s office.
Stella thought that if she continued with this man, she would have a mental breakdown. Not only did he do that sort of thing
frequently, but he also brought up her past. Stella didn’t know what this man was thinking.
“Stella, where have you been? I’ve been waiting for you for so long.” As soon as Stella entered her office, she ran into Emily.
Emily had been waiting for her at the secretary’s door for a long time before she saw Stella.
“I heard someone say you and your ex-husband were in the bathroom! I saw it from your secretary’s office! Are you okay?”
Emily was afraid Stella would argue with someone, so she came to see her as soon as she heard. Stella shook her head. “It’s no
big deal. What’s more, I’m not a child! I’m not going to fight with someone if they say something to me.”
In the past, when they were in France, whenever something happened to Stella, it was Emily who would come as soon as
possible, even if it was an unimportant matter!
“Ah, I didn’t expect it to go on like this after you were transferred to the secretariat. I thought your ex-husband would transfer you
to protect you!” Emily said worriedly.
