Ronald lifted her chin with his long fingers, their eyes meeting in a moment filled with unspoken depths.

Stella's already tense nerves frayed even more under his intense gaze. "You..."

"Why are your cheeks so red?"

Stella was speechless. The memories of the previous night flashed through her mind, and she instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck.

Resting her chin on his shoulder, she mumbled, "Just pretend I have a fever."
