Stella arrived at the restaurant twenty minutes early.

Yet, to her surprise, Foreman was already there, waiting for her.

She walked over. "How long have you been here?"

Foreman's deep gaze lingered on her face for a moment. He gave a subtle smile and stood to pull out her chair.

Stella let out a cold laugh. "And if I refuse? After what he's done to Antoney and Abby, what's next-me?"
