Chapter 28
“Here?” Marshall slowed down and asked. Stella finally returned to her senses, looked outside the window, and nodded, “Yeah, just drop me over there.”
“Wait here,” she said when the car stopped. Marshall did not know why she asked him to wait. Before he was about to ask her, Stella had already gotten out of the car and walked toward the opposite side of the road. A few cars passed by, and she was nowhere to be seen.
About ten minutes later, she showed up again. This time, she was standing at the other end of the crosswalk with two cups of coffee in her hands, looking both ways, waiting for the traffic to pass. Marshall could not look away when he saw her. Only when he heard a knock on his car window did he recover. He lowered the window, and Stella handed him a cup of coffee.
Marshall took the coffee and said in a low voice, “My name is Marshall. What’s yours?” Stella was stunned for a moment. She then smiled and said, “Celeste.”
Aurora was on the verge of going crazy when she heard that Marshall had a girlfriend. “Keegan! Marshall told me he has a girlfriend. Who is she?”
Keegan still had an upset stomach and was not in the mood to talk. “How would I know?” He said in anger.
“Aren’t you guys best friends? How could you not know who his girlfriend is?”
Keegan grabbed his phone away from her and coldly said, “Aurora, if you’re going to act crazy, then get out!” Aurora kept her mouth shut. She only dared to act like that when her brother was in a good mood because she was actually scared of him to the bones.
