Chapter 177:
Stella walked to Adrian’s room in her slippers. After seeing the little boy sleeping on the bed with a sweet smile
on his face, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he was fine.
The next day, Stella received a call from RK ordering her to go to a place immediately, so she left Adrian with
Emily. She hurried to the Sartaj Street Kitchen, urging the taxi driver as if she were having an emergency.
Due to the traffic jam, she had no choice but to call RK. “Where are you now?”
Once the call connected, she heard the man’s cold questioning tone.
Stella gritted her teeth and replied unhappily, “I'm still stuck on the clock tower's road. Why do you wantto
go to the Street Kitchen so early in the morning? RK, you are making things difficult foragain, aren't you?”
Could a CEO like him do actual work? Why did he enjoy making things difficult for his secretary? There were so
many secretaries in the company; why did he only target her? If she could confront RK, she would tie him up and
give him a good scare. Then, she would feed him to the fishes.
“Sophia said she wants to have a meal with you!”
After saying just a few words, he hung up the phone.
Stella was so angry that she wanted to curse. Sophia wanted to eat with her? RK probably just wanted to show
off his love. People were about to get married and having a meal with her, his ex-wife. It was very strange, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe felt embarrassed.
“Fine, so be it. | can’t believe I'm eating so early in the morning; it’s like I'm in a hurry to be reborn,” Stella
muttered. She was extremely upset.
Sometimes, things had to be like this. She knew that the person no longer belonged to her. She had nothing to
do with him anymore, and he even wanted to take away the person most important to her. However, she still
couldn't help feeling a little hurt and sad that he was with someone else. She would hate him for teasing her.
She wished to be far away from him, but he kept drawing her closer. When she thought he was interested in her,
he would tell her that he had a fiancée and they were about to get married. That was probably the case for her
and RK as well.
When they arrived at their destination, Stella paid the driver almost 100 rupees. She was going to make them
pay!
She had never spent so much money in any country before. She never had to spend this much.

Entering the restaurant, Stella saw her well-dressed sister sitting with RK like a butterfly in the distance. The two
of them looked like conjoined twins. She didn’t know whether it was her illusion or not, but she always felt that
RK was no longer the sas he used to be.
He was so cold to her.
“Rene, Stella is here,” Sophia said delicately, with a shy look on her face.
When Stella was about to sit down, she was so disgusted that she almost yelled out, “For God's sake, shut up! |
can’t stand your voice anymore!”
“Go ahead and order whatever you want.” RK’s expression softened a lot; however, he handed the menu directly
to Stella.
As soon as she took the menu, she saw Sophia's face, which looked like a frosted eggplant. She began to suspect
that he had asked her to cbecause Sophia wanted to have a meal together.
Did this guy have no feelings for Sophia anymore, and did he want to use her as a shield?
After flipping through the pages, Stella only ordered two light dishes. She promised Tristan that when he wasn’t
by her side, she would take good care of her stomach for the sake of Adrian.
“I have a similar taste to Stella. Rene, go ahead and order more. There are only two dishes; it's not enough.”
Upon hearing Sophia’s words, Stella felt goosebumps rising on her skin.
The two of them had similar tastes. How did she not know? Was this a joke? There was a huge difference
between their tastes, especially when speaking in front of RK. Sophia always pretended to be a good wife, and
Stella didn’t understand why RK would like such a woman.
She was unsatisfied with losing her dignity that year.

Lowering her head, Stella didn’t want to look at him. She wanted someone to call her and get her out of there
immediately. Who knew how long this meal with them would last? It was hard to endure; she felt bitter.
After a simple dish was served on the table, Stella was hungry, so she picked up her spoon without any
hesitation. Unexpectedly, someone said discontentedly, “You have no manners; you should learn from your
sister.”
Stella suddenly felt she couldn't speak.
“Learn from Sophia,” he said. Was there any problem with her picking up her spoon when she was hungry?
Besides, wasn't that rule applied to elders?
He hadn't even becher husband yet. Even if he was, wasn’t he an elder among them?
“Rene, don’t be angry; Stella is like this. We are family here, so don’t be so harsh on her. She must be extremely
hungry since she cearly in the morning.”
Sophia was acting like a perfect wife, but Stella felt that she was fanning the flames. What did she mean by “she
has always been like this”?
If there were elders, she would always be the last to pick up the spoon. It was very evident that she wanted to
slander her!
“My future brother-in-law, | have already touched my spoon. Since you have already lectured me, | can continue
to eat, right?”
