Chapter 50:.

“Stella, what are you thinking?” Isabella advanced the check, as if afraid Stella might not be able to see the number clearly.

“Stella, if you don’t want to interfere with Sophia’s marriage, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with taking Auntie’s money.”

“It’s the same with Tristan. You know that according to moral ethics, you two can’t be together, so…”

“Mom! What are you doing?”

Before Isabella could finish her words, a familiar male voice came from behind Stella.

Before Stella could turn around, she saw a man’s large hand snatch the check on the table from her. Tristan, fearing that Isabella would return the check to Stella, did not dare give it back to her.

“Mom, are you giving him money to leave town? Have you done this before?”

It was almost lunchtime, so Tristan had decided to go to Stella’s company to have lunch with her. After all, now that he was pursuing Stella, he wanted to spend more time with her.

The cafeteria was located at the company’s front door, and since Stella was sitting near the window, she saw them immediately.

But what Tristan didn’t expect was to find Isabella trying to pay Stella to leave X City.

Isabella felt a little embarrassed when Tristan discovered her actions. She said awkwardly, “Tristan, I was doing it for you. Do I give money to the girl I like to make her go away? Is it for my sake?”

Tristan held the check tightly in his hand, anger evident in his eyes.

Stella had always thought that Tristan was not the type to lose his temper easily. At least, he had never lost his temper in front of her. But she knew it was only because he was always serene in her presence.

When he was at the Richards’, Tristan had conflicts with Sofia and Isabella, but everything was behind the scenes. Only when Stella occasionally walked past Tristan’s room or came home early from school did he hear their arguments. It was always about her.

Despite this, Tristan always acted as if nothing had happened when Stella was around.
