“Why do you feel compelled to oppose Emmett?” After they were out of the room, Stella grumbled while frowning.

“Why didn’t you ask him why is he still cares about you?” Clarence responded by putting his hand in his pocket.

“It was... a long time ago.”

“Long time ago but why is he here today?”

Stella opened her mouth but was unable to respond quickly. “It's only a meal, and we're not alone,” she said softly as she understood why Emmett was here.

Clarence's lips lifted as he saw her respond. He leaned in towards her with his face tightened.

“What exactly do you want?” Stella inquired.

Clarence gazed at her lips with his head tilted slightly.

Stella took a glance around and said softly, "It's crowded here, can you wait until we get home?"

“Then send Emmett home.”

What a wretched man, Stella bit her lips.

She quickly kissed his cheek while no one was noticing and asked, "Satisfied?"

“Okay.” He stood up straight.

Stella sighed and noticed the waiter approaching them with the menu.

“Remember what you promised,” she pulled Clarence aside on the walk back to the room after placing the order.

“What did I say?”

“Do not oppose Emmett,” Stella clenched her teeth.

“Did I just say that?” Clarence teased.

Stella inhaled deeply and said, "Let me send you downstairs now. Nathan is not too far away, he could still turn back and fetch you home.”

Clarence returned quietly.
