Chapter 1077: Chapter 1077: I Missed You
It seems only with Stella Charlie can he find a sense of peace.
He wrapped his arm around her soft waist and whispered, "I miss you."
Stella Charlie blushed as she slowly raised her hand to embrace him, turning her head to rest against his broad chest.
Even though they had just seen each other this morning, and had been together these past few days.
This was also the first time he spoke to her so bluntly.
Those brief three words left a long-lasting ripple in Stella Charlie’s heart that couldn’t settle for a while.
"...If there’s anything that’s bothering you, you can tell me," Stella Charlie mustered the courage to speak.
She feared Vincent Warner would resent her suggestion, worried he might think she’s trying to pry into his privacy.
But honestly, she wanted to know many things about him.
Vincent Warner, however, didn’t want to involve Stella Charlie in these troublesome matters.
He raised his hand to gently pat her head and said, "Having you with me is enough."
Stella Charlie pursed her lips, hesitated to speak.
She felt he didn’t really want to talk, so she didn’t press further.
Vincent Warner held her hand as they returned to the house, gazing into her eyes and softly asked, "Isn’t it time for your hospital check-up tomorrow?"
"I don’t feel uncomfortable anywhere; it’s fine either way."
"We can’t be careless. You conveniently don’t have class tomorrow morning, so I’ll take you over in the morning." freewёbnoνel.com
Early the next day, Stella Charlie accompanied by Vincent Warner arrived at the hospital where she previously had her eye treatment.
Throughout the journey, Vincent Warner held Stella Charlie’s hand tightly, giving her a sense of security.
He took care of all the tedious registration procedures without troubling Stella Charlie, arranging everything perfectly.
While waiting in the hallway for the test results, Vincent Warner suddenly stood up and said, "Wait for me here."
Before Stella Charlie could ask anything, Vincent Warner had already gotten up and left.
From a distance, Stella Charlie saw Vincent Warner approaching a richly dressed woman.
As the woman spoke, her gaze occasionally drifted towards Stella Charlie, as if discussing matters regarding her.
After just a few exchanges, Vincent Warner returned.
Stella Charlie was curious about who the woman was, but didn’t voice her question.
Vincent Warner voluntarily introduced, "My mom."
Stella Charlie paused, originally thinking she should go over and greet her.
But then she considered that her relationship with Vincent Warner hadn’t reached that stage yet.
Furthermore, she didn’t know how Vincent Warner had introduced her to his mother just now.
Besides, the woman’s eyes seemed not so friendly when she looked at her earlier.
"The results are out, let’s go."
The doctor said her eyes had recovered well, much better than anticipated.
As they left the hospital, Stella Charlie was still contemplating what had happened earlier.
Her feelings were odd, she could sense Vincent Warner’s kindness towards her, yet she felt increasingly uneasy about their future.
After lunch, Vincent Warner drove her to school, and Stella Charlie went straight into the classroom with her books.
In school, rumors about her being a kept woman were spreading more and more, since her interactions with Vincent Warner had indeed been frequent lately.
She wanted to stand confidently and tell these people she and Vincent Warner were dating, that she was his girlfriend.
But then again, Vincent Warner seemed never to have confirmed such a relationship with her.
Everything between them appeared naturally to fall into place, yet lacked many processes.
The seemingly intimate relationship also felt so unfamiliar.
Stella Charlie began to feel anxious. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Would he really marry her?
Would they really have a future together?
