Chapter 280: Mutual 'Friend'

"I have to do something about her. I can't have her staying here for long, or she might end up saying something wrong to Stella. I cannot let her do this to us." After clearing his mind from the memories of his past, Taylor started to come up with a plan to send Elena back to the hole she crept out of to ruin his night.

All he wanted at the moment was to talk her into going back, he couldn't hurt her no matter what. Even if he was no longer the adolescent boy who fell head over heels in love with the girl he met by the river bank all those years ago, he still couldn't bring himself to hurt his childhood friend. After thinking it through, he had come to accept the fact that she still had an important place in his life and heart. So, he decided to solve this problem as civilly as he could. In no way could he bring himself to use force against her.His right hand slipped into his coat's pocket and he fished out a small golden ring. "Looks like you have to wait for a little longer, little buddy." With a sad smile hugging his lips, he muttered to himself as he firmly held it in between his two fingers. It was the same ring he had proposed to Elena all those years ago and was holding on to it as a memoir of his heart break. But who knew that this memoir of his past's heartbreak could also provide him solace with the hope of starting anew with another woman. He wanted to see the ring nestled neatly on Stella's dainty ring finger. He wanted it to replace the ring which was already there in its place."If only I would have found you a little earlier, then Adam wouldn't have gotten the chance to even know you, and we would have been together by now." He mumbled under his breath as he lovingly gazed at the ring in between his fingers. "If you prefer big rocks like the one you have on your ring, I will get you a bigger one, my love. All you need to do is say yes to me. I have already pulled out the thorn stuck in my foot for you." He put the ring back inside the pocket and pulled down the sun visor of the driver's side. Staring at the small picture stuck to it, he couldn't stop his lips from curling up in a wide smile. "You don't have to worry about me going back to her at all, Stella. You are better than her in every way. She doesn't stand a chance before you." He smiled at the picture which was clearly taken without the other person's knowledge. It was a picture of Stella in the same black dress which was delivered to then mansion without the sender's name. "Do you know how beautiful you look in this dress? I wanted to tell you then how good you look in the dress of my choice, but it's better if you keep thinking that it was from that designer friend of yours. I bought the dress from her store for a reason." He added with a longing look on his face. With the thoughts of winning Stella over and sending Elena back to her home, he turned on the ignition of the car and drove away from the banquet. He needed to find a way to have a chat with Elena. The sooner he succeeded in sending her away, the sooner he would get the chance to propose to Stella and be with her. --------"Congratulations, Mrs. Levinson." A soft, mellow voice rang beside her ear. It was enough for Stella to shift her attention to the lady standing behind her, clad in a wine red gown. She excused herself from the group of ladies she was talking to earlier and turned around to shift her attention to the person who had wished her. "Thank you so much." Even though she couldn't place a name to the lady, she still had to be polite to her. "I am sorry, but I think we are meeting for the first time, aren't we? Or am I making a mistake here?" As politely as she could manage, Stella asked her as she kept her voice low. It was really not possible for her to forget a name of one of the company's business partners, and the lady clearly didn't look like she was a reporter. "You don't have to apologize. I should be, for not introducing myself. I am Elena, and you are right. It's the first time we are meeting in person, but I have heard a lot about you from our mutual 'friend', Mr. Carston." The lady replied to her in the same, mellow tone as she extended her hand towards her. "Oh!" Not knowing what to reply back to the lady before her, Stella just took her hand and shook it firmly. "Yeah, oh!" Elena smiled at her as she rolled her eyes. "I just needed to show up here and greet you lovingly, which I have done." She added with a wink before turning her face around to look for something. The corners of her lips turned upwards in a bright smile when she saw the empty spot which was occupied by a certain annoying person earlier."Umm I don't know what to say to that." Stella drew her eyebrows together and gave her a confusing look."It's fine. I just hope the food will be good." Elena shrugged her shoulders in a nonchalant way as her eyes moved around the hall, still looking for the person who was the actual reason for her trip to Berlin. "Have all of your guests arrived by now?" The question escaped her lips which only caused more confusion to Stella. Taking in the way her eyes were wandering around, she couldn't stop herself from inquiring about her. "Who exactly are you looking for?" ******Join on discord: https://discord.gg/jgP7DmsIf you are reading the story on some other site besides W e b n o v e l. com, then the content is stolen.
