Stella checked the time after she received that message.
It was time to get off work.
She headed straight to the restaurant.
In Joyful Restaurant, Stella saw someone waving at her as soon as she walked in.
It was Oliver.
He was seated with his girlfriend, Juliette Davis, at a large table.
Oliver was leaning in so close to Juliette and staring as if he wanted to gobble her up.
Stella wasn’t even surprised by that.
As she got seated opposite them, she placed her bag on the table and joked, “Can you two stop making everyone else jealous with your intense PDA?”
Juliette shyly fiddled with her long curls which were similar to Stella’s.
She raised her eyebrows and teased, “Two can play the game, so do this with your husband.
”
After saying that, she looked behind Stella and asked, “Weren’t you supposed to come along with your hubby? Where is he? Is he shy because he will be meeting us for the first time?”
Stella picked up the menu and said, “He’s on his way.
”
“He’d better be!” Oliver snorted.
“He seems to have a thing for standing people up.
”
His dissatisfaction with Maverick was obvious and undisguised.
Stella gave him a murderous glare and placed her index finger over her lips.
“Shush!”
She set down the menu and gave him a harder look.
“You’d better be on your best behavior when he gets here.
Don’t start a fight, okay?”
