Chapter 211 211: Ashamed and Regretful

"Seriously Stefan, you are going to take me and your parents won't know about it?" Ella inquired as she hurried across the room and out into the living hall, agitated by Stefan's incredible suggestion.

The itinerary for their trip to Bali had caught her off guard, and she was now unsure of how she would approach her supervisor to request a leave of absence.

"That's why I told you not to be in a secret relationship," Stefan stated sarcastically, only to receive a sharp look in return.

Ella knew Stefan was purposefully getting her into trouble, but she wasn't about to let him have his way.

"I will not come. You can go have fun with your friends," she declined and turned to go.

Stefan panicked and quickly blocked her way.

"I was kidding, babe. I understand that we cannot discuss our relationship at this time, but I would like to bring my girlfriend with me. It will be enjoyable. Everyone is coming with their partners," Stefan tried persuading her, and she stopped giving him a skeptical stare.

"You are wrong, Stefan. There's only one couple there, Eveline and Gabriel, because I am not going..." she reminded him.

"No, babe. You are mistaken. We have another couple in the making. So it makes us three" Stefan said, prompting Ella to frown.

"What couple? Daniel?" She inquired, and Stefan nodded.

"How is that possible?" He doesn't even have a girlfriend." Her words ended when she saw Stefan beaming, and a notion struck her mind.

"Now way.... Daniel and Gracey?" When she asked, he nodded.

"Yes and he is planning on courting her" stated the man.

Ella was unsure of her feelings right now, but she did find their union charming and cute.

"So he was the friend who kept calling you?" she questioned, recalling Stefan's extended phone call with someone during their lunch break.

When asked, he replied it was a buddy who needed relationship advise from him, and she felt sorry for his friend for coming to the wrong person.

Stefan, as a relationship advisor, was a corny character, and she would advise anyone to seek his assistance.

"Then I bet it would be a failure since you are the one guiding him," she shrugged, and his smile faded.

"Babe, how do you say that? Did you forget that you succumbed for my charms and persistence?" he asked, and she sneered.
