Chapter 407
After Sophia had left, the staff checked the equipment at the scene once again. In just a few minutes,
the door to the multimedia control room was knocked on.
"Come in," the staff said.
"Hello," a clear female voice rang out. The staff turned his head. The woman said in a friendly tone,
"The screen outside doesn't display the image properly. Could you come out and take a look to see
what's going on?"
"How could it not display the image properly?" the staff said, getting up and walking to the screen.
"I have no idea either. Please come and take a look to find out the problem.
Their voices faded away as they walked away.
The door to the multimedia control room was slightly ajar, and the monitor screen inside flickered
slightly.

the image properly but there was no signal at all. He quickly asked his colleague in the multimedia
control room to find out why. After going into the room, the colleague told him that the outdoor screen
was not turned on.
The staff breathed a sigh of relief but was also puzzled. He remembered that when the Vinci Rivera
Group's speaker came to copy the information, he had turned on the outdoor screen himself. He
wondered how it was turned off.
Stella came out of the restroom and happened to bump into Sophia who was on her way in.
Stella ignored her and was about to leave. When they brushed past each other, Sophia stopped her
and said, "Stella, how does it feel to watch me give a speech at your alma mater?"
Stella paused for a moment, glanced at her, and said, "You can only make an appearance at Trinity
University this way. After all, if you were to take the exam, even if you repeated it for ten years, you
wouldn't be able to enroll in Trinity University."
Sophia's eyes darkened. "Yeah, I can't enroll in this university, but what about you? What do you have
to be proud of? Living in a cage and having to rely on your husband's money? What do you have to be
proud of?"
Stella thought, 'This is exactly what Xianna said to me before. Sophia doesn't even bother to hide her
hostility anymore.'
Stella wondered, 'All this time, she's only been scheming behind my back. But yesterday, she made a
move on Keegan, which caught me off guard. And now, she has the nerve to confront me face-to-face.
I wonder what gives her the courage.'
She looked at Sophia for a few seconds then chuckled lightly all of a sudden. "You still have the nerve
to act insolent in front of me. I guess I didn't hit you hard enough yesterday."
Sophia's face darkened and the pain on her cheek began to throb. She clenched her fists and said
through her gritted teeth, "I dare you to hit me in this event!" The Trinity University's recruitment talk
was the most important event, which was why Keegan attended in person. Sophia did not believe that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella would dare to lay a finger on her in such occasion.
Stella gave her a cold look. "Sophia, the Vinci Rivera Group only needs a speaker, and it's not like
you're the only one who can do it. I think Keegan would prefer me, his wife, who also graduated from
Trinity University. Do you want to find out?"
Sophia's expression changed. She gritted her teeth and left with a cold face.
It was two-fifty in the afternoon. Keegan looked at his watch and thought,' It's been twenty minutes. Did
Stella fall in the toilet or what?!'
Just as he was about to ask Aldor to check the hallway, he saw Stella walking toward the stage.
Stella, who was wearing sunglasses, looked stunning as she walked up the stage with her lips slightly
pursed and her long wavy hair. The years of postural training had made her very poised. She had a tall
and curvaceous figure, which was accentuated by her confident stride. As she made her way to the
stage like a model, the students below were captivated by her presence. They even thought she was a
celebrity that the Vinci Rivera Group had invited and took out their phones to snap pictures of her.
