A week passed with Stella just waiting for the weekend. Since she did her shoot, it will be launched within a few more weeks. And 'The Golden Sword' wouldn't start filming until the ML was finalised.
So Stella was mainly just playing games and not doing much, then came the weekend and working at the Fude corporation again.
Stella made sure her face was still dirty and she used a cheap suit. She ignored the looks from new members of the department and recognized the people Mou had placed into the business.
Ryan opened the door with vigor. "Stella... Come with me." He said in a weird tone, he normally called Stella 'Bastard' so this was new for him.
Stella did so and went into the CEO's office. Employees wondering how Stella still had a job looking like that...
"Alright, because of your efforts I have an offer for you. Keep doing your jobs on the weekends. Make sure the employees remain relatively stable and you get benefits with a stable job and the department in 3 months." Ryan said with a stern voice.
'3 months. What a coincidence.' Stella ignored the matching time with when Yuon and Zou would be married. "I understand master." Was he replied with, he was just a servant after all...
Ryan was happy with Stella cowering. "Good." He replied, not saying much else.
Stella went back to his department and kicked back and relaxed. "I didn't expect him to be so shameless," Stella mumbled, it was obvious to her that Ryan knew the USB belonged to Stella. Since the previous idea was drafted in a similar style.
The workers in the new department were rather well talented. They just did their work, it wasn't a quiet rumor that the entire floor was sacked due to going against their manager so they didn't dare raise any problems.
Some particular people would go into Stella's room and would keep the information for 'safekeeping'. Also known as putting the information into Stella's laptop and sending it over to Mou.
...............
For the next two days, Stella was comfortable in the company. She was playing games when she got a call from Tracy.
"Director Gozou is ready to start filming, we begin tomorrow at 9am." Tracy said.
"Mmm. I'll be there at 8am." Stella replied, she was talking about the company building.
"Good, also the FL was indeed Mis Rin. Don't tell me you have your eyes on her?" Tracy reported.
Stella smiled. "This Master goes for whoever is the pearl of the eye." Stella replied as she hung up.
Mou listened to the conversation. He couldn't notice any flaws if Stella was acting, but he also couldn't make out if the actions were genuine... For the first time in his life, he couldn't read a person after knowing them for more than a week.
He walked away and sat down. He seemed to be brooding. "Master, nothing has changed and the situation is favoring us." The butler reported.
"Mmm, stop investigating." Mou ordered.
The butler seemed both surprised and a little regretful. "I'm sorry the team couldn't find any information Master, I'll relay the message." The butler said as he walked off with a slight bow.
Mou stayed sitting. He had met some of the most powerful people in the world. Business, politics even the underworld. He could read every one he met, he could judge who they were and he could investigate them soundly. But Stella... Was an enigma to him. He couldn't read him despite living with him. He seemed to be acting but he couldn't put a finger on how. And his intelligence network was failing him for the first time in his life!
Mou didn't want to end up on bad relations with Stella. He felt his company wasn't bad. He also was incredibly intelligent despite being a bit weird. He wanted to know more about him!
Mou then stopped those thoughts, he continued his work without thinking of Stella.

"Hey Big M, did you manage to find anything?" Miss Fia asked as she went into their small room.
"No, he's impossible to find anything on. All I can go off is that he was wearing the Fude family servant clothing, other than that we can't find anything in the Fude household and nothing on what he is doing now." Big M replied as he drunk some water.
Miss Fia seemed to be worried. "I don't understand, if he was a servant then why was he here? Did he get kicked out? But why was he wearing the uniform still... Did he escape? But they aren't looking for anybody at all. It's a weird situation." Miss Fia said with a slight frown.
"Mmm, also where did he go now? He seemed to be suddenly doing well for himself after only a day." Big M mumbled in his hand.
"Should we ask the boss?" Miss Fia asked, she wanted to know the man's identity.
Big M shook his head. "No, I doubt the boss would even realize something as small as a servant leaving that place. It doesn't make sense that there are no records of him anywhere, even him studying in the school has been silently wiped." Big M said as Miss Fia's eyes gleamed.
"Someone must have hidden the information! But why?" She realized as she came to another problem.
Big M shook his head. "I don't know, no matter how much we know it won't mean anything. The boss seems set on supporting the Fude's." Big M said with a lump in his throat.
Miss Fia's expression changed into a frown. "Honestly, I don't understand why. The Fude household is full of so many holes."
*Sigh* Big M sighed with a look of disappointment. "You know the boss wants revenge on the Master of the Guillard family, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. Despite a useless enemy being hundreds of times more dangerous than a useless enemy." He said as he felt worn out.
Miss Fia sat and counted the donations. 'I just hope he doesn't lose his way.' She inwardly thought.
