Leonard gave her a meaningful look. "Alright."
A short while later, the doctor came to examine Leonard.
He smiled and said, "Ms. Cameron has taken excellent care of Mr. Lerman. His wounds have indeed healed. However, he should still avoid any strenuous activity."
Neither Stella nor Leonard spoke.
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, the doctor cleared his throat and made an excuse to leave.
As the doctor left, he couldn't help but wonder. The atmosphere between those two was strange; they didn't seem like a couple at all.
After the doctor was gone, Stella asked, "I've prepared all your gifts. When do you want to celebrate your birthday?"
Leonard was quiet for a few seconds. "Three days from now."
Stella furrowed her brow. She wanted to get his birthday over with tomorrow and leave immediately. But since Leonard had spoken, she didn't want to start an argument over two or three days.
Stella nodded, said "fine," and turned to leave.
Three days later, Stella woke up early to prepare for the birthday celebration.
She was a natural in the kitchen with an eye for detail; baking a birthday cake was second nature to her.
Stella had learned from Leonard that his actual birthday had already passed. This was just a belated celebration.
Stella had no intention of doing a shoddy job.
That was just her personality; once she agreed to something, she saw no point in being half-hearted about it.
Stella treated it like planning any other birthday party. She had the staff decorate the living room.

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....
Can’t wait to see what joshua will do...
Why would the author of this book do that to Stella? Such cruelty!...
So many chapters are incomplete. Missing pages. Hard to get continuity...
