"Beck, apologize."
Augus slammed the table, clearly serious this time.
Beck grew angrier and slumped into the chair next to him.
"I won't apologize. You might as well make me kneel in the chapel."
"Fine, then kneel there for three hours."
Beck had thought it would be for no more than an hour and turned to glare at Stella.
However, Stella wasn't looking at him. She kept her head down, speaking in a murmur.
Beck stood up defiantly. If kneeling in the chapel until he collapsed was what it took, he'd do it but never apologize to a woman like her.
Seeing Beck storm off, Augus rubbed his temples.
"Elle, why don't you stay for lunch?"
Stella, now behaving docilely, agreed, "Okay."
After an hour of kneeling in the chapel, Beck heard someone at the door and turned to see Stella holding an apple, coming to sit beside him.
She had brought a cushion for herself and took a bite of her apple.
Beck's frustration showed on his face, "This is a chapel. If you want to eat, go somewhere else."
He closed his eyes, trying to ignore Stella.
But the sound of her munching on the apple was persistent and irritating.
"Stella!"
Stella had finished her apple and glanced at her phone, "You still have an hour and fifty minutes, Beck. Are you hungry? Should I bring you an apple?"
"Get lost. Don't disturb me."
"And you kneeling here, worried about being disturbed?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
