Chapter 517:

Stella slowly made her way back to the RK Mansion. Anyway, she might as well go there instead of waiting. RK must have gone back to the RK Mansion. Knowing that she hadn’t been back for a month, he called her. RK had indeed returned to the RK Mansion.

However, Aunt Maya had called RK while they were on a business trip abroad and informed him that Stella had not returned home.

Originally, RK thought that since Stella had seen him today, she should be back. However, he still didn’t see Stella when he returned to the RK Mansion, leaving him with no choice but to call her.

Stella walked slowly toward the RK Mansion. Although she knew it was still far from where she was, she treated the walk as if she were merely taking a stroll. Gradually, Stella found herself in a deserted area, and the sky slowly darkened. The dark clouds gathered above her, casting a gloomy atmosphere.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning illuminated the sky, revealing Stella’s face. Not long after, a thunderous rumble echoed not far away. The trees on both sides of the road shook violently in the sudden gust of wind.

“Boom!” Another deafening clap of thunder followed, accompanied by a blinding flash of light. The entire night lit up brightly, and the sudden downpour left Stella with no place to hide.

Before long, the rain drenched Stella completely. The car approaching from the opposite direction was none other than RK’s. He suddenly recognized the figure struggling in the heavy rain. As he got closer, he confirmed that it was indeed Stella.

Blinded by the headlights, Stella had to squint her eyes. RK parked the car by the roadside, got out with an umbrella, and walked towards her. Seeing the familiar figure approach, Stella felt a wave of relief.

RK opened the umbrella and positioned it to cover most of Stella’s head. He felt a surge of pity at how vulnerable she looked. “What’s wrong with you? Why didn’t you wait for me at the coffee shop?”

At that moment, Stella thought it wouldn’t take long for RK to arrive, so she had begun her walk back to the RK Mansion. However, she hadn’t expected to see him until three hours later.

Stella looked up at RK, silent. Noticing her lack of response, RK felt at a loss for words. As he saw Stella’s wet hair clinging to her forehead, he instinctively reached out to brush it aside.
