Now They Want My Forgiveness - Chapter 179: Chapter 179

Chandler stormed off in anger. He thought, 'The gathering was supposed to be a classy event, but they went and ruined the whole thing.'
Once he left, Jordan said, "He is probably going to try and get us kicked out of the association."
"That's no big deal. Let's head back," Stella replied.
Jordan had witnessed Stella's hacking skills before. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have made it this far this fast.
As soon as they got home, Stella didn't pause to rest. She went straight to her computer and started writing the code. After a while, she cracked it.
"These are all the records of Mr. Shaw's shady dealings with others. There is a lot of dirt on him. If he dares to kick us out, we'll shove this in his face," Stella said.
Jordan glanced at the screen and smiled. He said, "Good job. This is very useful. Keeping your identity under wraps has made things easier for us."
No one knew that Stella was the mysterious figure behind Jordan. Of course, even if they were told, no one would believe it.
If anyone ever believed it, they would be on guard against Jordan and Stella, and it would be much harder for Stella to do anything. But Stella's computer skills were off the charts.
Stella was really worn out and wanted to rest.
Jordan said, "You can go wash up."
Stella was covered in bruises, but that didn't mean she couldn't shower. She just had to be careful and keep it quick.
Stella was thinking the same thing. She went to the bathroom and let the hot water run over her. It felt pretty good on her bruises. Maybe it would even help them heal faster.
Probably because she had followed the doctor's advice about her spleen lately, her body was getting back on track. She was in control of answering a call of nature now.
Everything was turning around for the better. Stella believed that the good future she had lost would eventually be back.
Stella felt thirsty but realized there was no water left in the bedroom, so she stepped out to get some. At the same time, Jordan came out of his bathroom, probably also looking for some water. They ran into each other in the hallway.
Jordan had nothing on but a towel wrapped around his waist, and his upper body was bare with water still dripping down his chest.
His physique was amazing, just like the hot male characters in novels Stella used to secretly read back in school. Stella's cheeks instantly turned red.
"I-I'm thirsty," Stella mumbled.
Jordan certainly noticed her reaction. Watching her scurry off, he couldn't help but smile. He followed after her and said, "Me, too. But you can ask the servant to get it for you next time."
"I want to try doing things myself," Stella replied. "Moving around helps my body's metabolism move faster, and maybe I'll be able to eat more soon. This is beneficial to my recovery."
Jordan hummed in agreement.
Stella felt the atmosphere was weird, especially since Jordan had seen her but still didn't put on any clothes. It made her feel uncomfortable. When she tried to pour herself some water, she nearly spilled it all over her foot.
Jordan, afraid she would burn herself, quickly reached out to take her hand and lifted the kettle away.
He said, "Be careful." His voice was incredibly gentle, like a spring breeze brushing past her ear.
Stella noticed he was still holding her hand and quickly let go. She said, "Sorry. Did I bother you?"
"What were you thinking about?" Jordan asked. His deep voice was right in her ear, and his hot breath brushed against her skin, making her ear tingle.
Seeing that there was already some water in her glass, Stella quickly grabbed it and dashed off. She said, "Nothing. Mr. Erwin, good night."
