Chapter 486

Unlike Chris’s tense situation, Stella was well in Weston’s arms as he made a beeline for his car from The Dog House. Along the way, many people cast curious glances at them. Stella subconsciously buried her face in his arms, triggering Weston's light chuckle. “Still shy?” Stella kept quiet. A while later, she whispered softly into his ear, “Can you let me down so I can walk myself?” Weston carried her higher instead. “Can you even walk by yourself, given your current state?” “I just hurt my back. My legs are fine.” The moment she said that, Weston suddenly released his hold over her. “Ah!” Stella’s body descended abruptly, and she instinctively let out a yelp as she hugged his neck tight. She looked up into a pair of smiling eyes. “Still want to walk by yourself?” “You did that on purpose!” Stella sputtered indignantly. “So what if I did?” Stella’s brows furrowed as she adjusted herself, clearly dissatisfied. Her subtle movements, however, displeased him.
