Chapter 257

Just as Stella was trying to compose herself, Ronald's phone buzzed again.

It was Idris again..

Ronald glanced down at the hand Stella was holding onto him, and Stella instinctively let go. "Go on, you should take that."

Ugh, talk about torture. Hurry up and leave, don't torment her here.

Seeing Stella about to bury her head under the covers again, Ronald quickly pulled her back.

The marks on her neck, like vivid roses, were etched into his heart.

He chuckled softly, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Sweetie, get some sleep."

With that, he stood and walked toward the door.

Stella's heart raced, her mind spinning wildly. She suddenly felt incredibly vulnerable.

It was as if her courage had skyrocketed in that moment!

As Ronald reached for the doorknob, Stella blurted out, "Ronald, you...you took me last night."

The silence that followed was deafening.

Stella's breath hitched, her eyes fixated on Ronald's back.

She couldn't see his face, but she had truly laid it all out there.

For so many years, She had hidden her feelings, always concealing them with great effort. Back in Ferrowland, she'd been terrified someone would notice how she felt about Ronald. Whenever his friends would say, "Your sister's so cute, so thoughtful, coming to pick you up..." and so on, those comments reminded Stella, she was seen as Ronald's sister.
