You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 431

Damian need not say a word. His stare was enough to put Burnham in place.

“Damian, she's already gotten over it. It's true that she was sad after you got married, but she still hopes both of you can stay as friends. We all know how close both of you were. It really doesn't matter what happened between the two of you. You guys can still remain as friends.”

Damian did not reply but read the documents in his hand. He completely ignored Burnham and the latter had no idea what Damian was thinking at all.

“Come on, man. You know how difficult her life was in the past few years, so just go easy on her. You should just meet up with her and talk things out. You can't avoid her forever, right? I don't see why you should give her the cold treatment unless you still have feelings for her.”

Damian finally put down the document and looked at Burnham.

“I really don't understand, Damian. If you still like Stella, why did you marry Wrenna?”

“Burnham Stewart, don't put words in my mouth.”

“Fine, I'm sorry. We're meeting up at the same place tonight. I'll take it as you still like her if you don't join us. If that's the case, you should just get a divorce sooner.”

With that said, Burnham left.

Burnham wiped his sweaty palms and heaved a sigh of relief right after he got out.

Those people really owe me a big one for making me do this.

I swear I'll never do this again.

Burnham went to the club early that evening. This was where this group of friends usually met. They even had a private lounge to themselves.

When he arrived, Colton was already there.

“What is it this time?” he asked Colton, “Don't you give me this look. I've already had enough in the morning. You guys should stop making me talk to Damian about things like that.”

It was not difficult to tell Colton Jennings apart from his peers. He had a chiseled jaw and well-defined features, and he could easily pass for a multiracial person if people had not heard him speak.

“I didn't ask you to do it.”

“Yeah, I know, but still. I can't just sit and watch our friend suffer alone.”

Colton snorted at him.

“Stella is not our friend. She's your...”

“Are you serious? She's not your friend? Don't tell me you think it's her fault too. I would go abroad as well if I were her.”

Colton smirked with his brows raised and said no more.

Burnham felt like he was being ridiculed, so he just scoffed and turned away.

It did not take long before Damian and Stella arrived.

“Oh, you guys came together?” Burnham teased.

When he saw Damian's stern face, he instantly stopped and talked to Stella instead.

“Hi, Stella. It's been a long time. You're just as pretty as ever. I think it's good you went overseas though. Look at you now. The world is your oyster and you're all equipped with what it takes to be successful. It's way better than just depending on a man.”

Stella got into a huge fight with Damian when she decided to go abroad and they broke up because of that.

Burnham was all for Stella on this issue. To him, a man should not be so selfish as to demand his partner to stay with him wherever he was. Given Stella's talent, it would be a total waste to not study abroad. He could not wrap his head around why Damian insisted on her staying, so much so that he even broke up with her.

Now that Stella became successful, she looked so much more confident compared to Wrenna, who was too timid.

Burnham preferred Stella over Wrenna. He thought Stella was a better choice for Damian because Wrenna's whole life revolved around Damian and only him. Nevertheless, Damian had already married Wrenna regardless of how she felt.

Burnham was sure that Damian's marriage would be the biggest regret for both Damian and Stella.

“Thanks, Burnham. You're not bad yourself either. You're a doctor now,” Stella said, smiling at him.

Burnham smiled back and gestured at her to go over to sit down beside him.

“I know right. I'm a successful doctor now, but you know what. Someone totally has no regard for me. They think I'm just a nobody, but hell, I come from a family of doctors. Just wait till they have to beg me to treat them,” Burnham complained, stealing a look at Colton and Damian, but the two did not seem perturbed at all.

They sat next to each other and started talking about a totally different topic.

“I agree with what you said. People seem to favor the new policy, so I think that's good.”

“Yeah, I think that was a smart move from him.”

Stella sneaked a peep at Damian and got mesmerized.

He looked different from when they parted ways. He was not a young boy anymore. Those years they spent apart had added a hint of elegance and maturity to his bearing.

He had become a luminary in his sphere and she had heard of all his feats. To Stella, he had become a more enigmatic and attractive man.

Stella never once regretted her choice of leaving him, but now that she saw him again, a small voice in her heart told her that she just lost the most important thing in her life.

She wondered if she could ever get it back.
