"But the information released so far was just a smokescreen," Stella continued. "Soon enough, those rumors will become fact."
The file Harland had sent her contained proof of several double-crosses.
Once that evidence was made public, even if Leonard wasn't responsible for this particular incident, he wouldn't be able to clear his name. He was going to have to swallow this loss.
As she was thinking through her next steps, Stella realized Neville was watching her with a peculiar expression.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked, breaking from her thoughts.
Neville smiled faintly. "It's been a while, and you seem to have changed a lot."
It wasn't the first time someone had said that to her. "And do you think this change is for the better, or for the worse?" she asked.
"People are always changing," he said, seeming to understand her inner conflict. "Whether for better or worse, it's all a part of who you are. Don't dwell on it, Star. You've made your decision, so don't look back. Just keep moving forward."
His words were like a gentle breeze, clearing the fog from her mind.
Stella picked up her glass and said softly, "Neville, thank you."
"There's no need for thanks between us."

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....

Why would the author of this book do that to Stella? Such cruelty!...
So many chapters are incomplete. Missing pages. Hard to get continuity...
