Chapter 324 324: Why did I even listen to him

Stefan and Ella were on their way back to her apartment when a familiar face drew her attention.

"Pull the car over," Ella said, prompting Stefan to halt the car on the side of the road.

"What's wrong?" Stefan frowned as Ella abruptly exited the automobile.

Her peculiar behavior alarmed him, so he followed her and stepped out of the car as well.

He followed her line of sight before returning his glance to her anxious face.

"Tell me what's going on, Dove. "You are scaring me," he said, increasing his voice on her, drawing her out of her search and turning to face him.

"I just thought I saw mom," she replied breathlessly, leading Stefan to frown even further in disbelief.

"How is that possible? You recall she was resting when we left the house. How can she be here?" he said, attempting to make sense of her statements.

"I know, but I thought I just saw her, and now there's no one." Ella moaned pathetically, attempting to catch a glimpse of her mother but she wasn't there.

"Let me confirm it." She abruptly spoke and dashed back to the car. Opening the door, she grabbed her purse and swiftly pulled out her phone to call her mother.

She nibbled on her lower lips, anxiously glancing at Stefan, who had also fixed his questioning gaze on her, and then she said.

"Mom, are you up?" Ella attempted to keep her voice normal. She only wanted to confirm her suspicions, and the moment she heard her mother's sleepy voice, she cast a cautious glance at Stefan.

"Where are you, Ella? I awoke to find myself alone in the house? You were on leave at the time, so why are you not here?" Ella swallowed, trying to calm her beating heart after incorrectly disbelieving her mother.

"I'm sorry, Mom. Stefan and I went out for work, but don't worry, we're on our way back home. We'll be right there," she responded in an apology tone.

"Okay," Mischelle responded, and Ella quickly ended the conversation.

Stefan sarcastically said, "So she is home, probably woken up from her sleep because of your call," as she pursed her lips.

Let's go home. Mom wondered where we went, leaving her alone."

Ella opened the car door and entered. Stefan soon joined her and took over
