Stella paused for a while before softly saying, “You don’t have to take on everything yourself. You’d beliving a tiring life if you did.”
Marshall swallowed; Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat. He clenched onto the steering wheel andwaited long before saying, “Just scold me so that I feel better.”
“Pass. I’ll feel bad if I scold you,” Stella laughed.
Marshall let out a chuckle and said, “Don’t worry. I’m not letting this matter slide.”novelbin
Stella did not take his words to heart. She closed her eyes and sighed, “Tell me something, Marshall.Why would these fans put their future on the line for celebrities who wouldn’t do the same for them?”
“Most of them are young and have too much free time on their hands. They won’t engage in thisnonsense once they grow older and get into relationships.”
This was Stella’s first hearing such an answer, and she could not hold back her amusement. Though, itmade sense after she thought about it. “You’re funny,” she said.
Suddenly, she received a notification on her phone from Keegan. He had just finished work and textedher, [Just get the cheap one. Getting the expensive fish would be a waste. Plus, I don’t deserve it. I’drather save up and buy you designer bags.] Stella’s lessons were clearly working from the sound ofKeegan’s words.
[You’re rather self-aware, huh?] Stella replied as she suppressed her smile.
Keegan laughed and said, [Remember to go home earlier after you’re done shopping. Don’t stay outtoo long.
Something came up in the lab, so I’d probably be late.]
Initially, Stella had typed half of what happened today to send to Keegan. But when she to do, shedeleted her paragraph and said, [Got it. Talk to you when you’re home.]
Keegan was about to reply when Aldor called out to him. So, he had to put away his phone and goback to the lab.
It was almost dark when Stella finished her checkup and assisted with the investigation. Marshallwanted to drive her home, but she said, “Can you drop me off at the supermarket? My car’s still there.”
Marshall was concerned. “You can’t drive in this condition. I’ll drive you where you want to go and havesomeone fetch your car later.”
“That’s alright. I’m fine. I can drive home myself,” Stella said stubbornly.
Seeing that there was no persuading her, Marshall did not say anything and turned the car around backto the grocery store. When they arrived, he stopped her when she tried to get out of the vehicle.
Stella turned around and saw Marshall exiting the car. He grabbed a coat and shook it, ready to put itover her shoulders. Stella’s reflexes kicked in, and she took a step back. Marshall paused, folded theclothing, and naturally handed it to her. “The weather’s cold at night. You should put on somethingwarm, so you don’t catch a cold.”
Stella did not get the implication behind Marshall’s words.” Huh? Cars come with heaters, remember? Iwon’t catch a cold. You should go. Your family must have been waiting for you while you were stuckwith me.”
Marshall withdrew his hand and smiled. “Why does it seem like you don’t want to be associated withme?” he asked.
His words made Stella speechless.
