Chapter 2105

Stella fluttered her lashes quickly, trying to brush off the tension in the room, but Beck caught her chin, tilting her face upwards.

"Stella, do you really think I won't harm you?"

She had crossed his line one too many times.

With a resigned sigh, Stella closed her eyes, presenting a silent dare—if he wanted to, he could go ahead and do it.

Beck frowned deeply, then moved past her as if to leave. He was halfway through putting on his jacket when he heard footsteps behind him. It was Stella, approaching him once more.

She wrapped her arms around him from behind, her voice barely a whisper. "Beck."

"What are you doing back here? Don't you know the Moore family is still hunting for you? A year ago, you poisoned two people, and they're not letting it go."

Jason's parents were still stuck on that incident. She had left, so why come back?

"Beck, I missed you."

Stella clung to him, not wanting to let go.

Beck glanced down at her hands entwined around his waist. He raised a hand, intending to cover hers, but stopped midway.
