Chapter 212 Unexpected Visitor
Even though my body hurt, I quickly got out of bed. After pulling back the curtains and looking down, Ispotted Stella at the door.
How did she know where I lived? I didn’t recall telling her that I stayed at Amethyst Apartments.
She rang the doorbell twice more before I opened the door. Stella had a bright smile on her face as shestepped inside, holding a basket of fruits. She had an innocent expression as if she wouldn’t hurt a fly.
“Ms. Stella!” I smiled and asked, “How’d you find this place?”
“Well, you sure went through a lot!” She walked in and looked around as if she owned the place. “Yourhouse is nice, very classic!”
“Please, have a seat! Can I get you something to drink? I have coffee and tea!”
“Anything is fine. Don’t trouble yourself!” She cheerily followed me. “How did this happen? It’s trulyterrifying. Did you offend anyone? How’d you end up kidnapped?”
She seemed well–informed about my situation, which perplexed me.
“Wow, the news traveled fast!” I chuckled, though I harbored doubts.
“Atlas got a call while we were having dinner yesterday. I overheard them saying that you weremissing.” she explained matter–of–factly. “I was worried, so I called Atlas later to ask. I was so relievedto hear they
found you!”
A tinge of bitterness welled up within me. So they were having dinner together.
Stella studied my face intently. “Chloe, how’d you hurt your face?”
She gasped as if she hadn’t noticed when she entered. Her delicate face displayed an exaggeratedlook
of shock.
I gestured for her to take a seat.
“Have you seen a doctor? You must take care of your face, or it’ll leave a scar! She leaned in to take a
closer look, looking worried. “How could this happen to someone so pretty?”
“It’s nothing, just surface wounds!”
I didn’t expect it to be this severe!” She sighed, taking a seat.
We talked about various topics, but neither of us mentioned Celine. I chose not to bring it up and
She finally excused herself when she saw I was tired.novelbin
At the door, Stella said, “Your injury disrupted my plans. I was going to go shopping with you. I need topick out a gift tomorrow for Atlas’s birthday. I don’t have time to return to Nocturnia, so I’ll just shoparound here.”
“Really?” I casually said, “I don’t think I can join you in this state. I can’t exactly go out like this!”
She held my hand and said, “Alright, take care and get well soon! Be careful if you go out next time.”
“Thank you, Ms. Stella!”
“Why are you being so courteous? Well, I’m off!”
She left, and I lazily returned upstairs. I climbed into bed and accessed the recently installedsurveillance
feed.
Initially, I intended to test the cameras‘ performance, but Stella’s expression caught my attention.
