Chapter 443
Fortunately, the mark was hidden under her jaw, close to her ear. Her hair was draped on her shoulder, so no one should be able to see unless they looked closely. That was why Roger had not noticed it.
If Roger had seen it, the consequences would be serious. She would not be able to explain herself. After all, it was obvious to know where she got the mark from. It was impossible to fool Roger.
Stella subconsciously tried to raise her collar a little to cover the red mark, but Justin shook his head.
“It’s still easy to see, and it’s more obvious now.’
He suggested, “Why don’t you put on a scarf? It’s winter anyway, so it won’t raise suspicion.” Stella panicked. “I’ll go and buy one now…”
“No need.” Justin took out a gift box from the drawer and handed it to her. “If you don’t mind, take this. It was meant for Tina, but I couldn’t give it to her because we split up not long after. I don’t need it anymore. If you don’t mind, just take it. Otherwise, it’ll be wasted anyway.”
Stella hesitated a little, but she accepted it in the end. “Thank you. I’ll return it to you.”
“No, it’s fine.” Justin rubbed his brow and felt a little troubled. “I was going to get rid of this anyway,” he said and suddenly sighed a little. “If you don’t take it, I’ll probably throw it away.”
“Why don’t you just give it to Tina?”
“With our relationship now, I shouldn’t give her anything else.”
