Worry and anxiety are all shown on her face, and her pace is anxious, but it doesn’t reduce her grace. She greets Justin when she comes in.
"I'm Stella, Louis's fiancee." The voice is soft and not pretentious, which is pleasant to the ears.
Lily has only seen this woman on the newspaper, but she is prettier than on the picture.
Justin also introduces himself to her, so do Leigh and Daniel.
Stella seems to lose her footing and almost falls. Justin can't offer a help, so Lily, who stands beside her, holds her in time. "Miss Stella, how are you?”
"Yes. I’m fine."
Lily notices that Stella's arms are shaking and she seems to be holding back something. Within 10 seconds, she calms her down and gets up, pushing Lily aside.
Is she worried about Louis?
Stella asks Lily, "How's Louis?"
"His legs... are injured and he is still unconscious." Lily tells Stella all.
Stella seems to have no idea how serious the situation is. She pauses for a moment, then says hoarsely, "That's all right. Let’s just think about other things when he wakes up. He will be fine.”
"Do you want to go in and see him?"
Stella shakes her head. "No, he needs a break now. I'll just be outside."
It's early in the morning, and it's not a good idea for everyone to be here. Lily tells Justin and others to go back and have a rest, while she will stay here. But Stella asks Lily to go with them.
As a result, nobody leaves because they are worried about Louis.
"Don't stop me, let me in! I'm going in!” It’s noisy down the hall. "Are you blind? Don't you recognize me?"
Lily knows it's Chloe.
"Here comes the little princess!” Leigh also recognizes Chloe's voice and calls at the hallway. Soon, Chloe rushes here. She is wearing a bright-red sequined dress.
"Coquettish woman! Is Louis all right?" As soon as Chloe comes over, her gaze is fixed on Lily, poking her finger at Lily and says, "If something happens to Louis, I will strip your skin!"
Lily takes a deep breath and doesn't want to bother about how Chloe address her now. "Mr. Louis is still in a coma. There's something wrong with his legs."
"What! Is Louis going to be trapped in a wheelchair all his life?"
Chloe screams at Lily, "How can Louis be confined to a wheelchair! I heard that you were in the car with Louis. Why are you all right?"
"Did you do it because Louis is engaged and you planned to kill him?"
"Miss Chloe, that's way too much." Stella's voice is soft. "You’ve read about the accident on the news, too. It was an accident, and it has nothing to do with Miss Lily."
Chloe looks at Stella who is talking. After recognizing her, she rolls her eyes and raises her eyebrows. "I can say what I like. What's the matter with you?"
"Louis doesn't need you to look after him either. Get out of here! With your background, do you think Louis would think highly of you? He just pities you. You're not as good as this coquettish woman!"
Stella is not irritated by her, she says, "Louis is my fiance, I should take care of him."
"Don’t shed crocodile tears!"
Seeing that the three women seem to being fighting each other, Justin hurriedly says, and presses his hand on Chloe’s head, "Chloe, I haven't seen you for months. How are you doing."
Seeing Justin, Chloe becomes a good girl and says sweetly, "Justin! Leigh!"
