Capítulo 504: Take it slow

Later that afternoon, in an abandoned warehouse just outside Seattle, Stella was waiting for Owen.

"You are late!", her impatience was evident.

Owen showed his palms defensively while walking toward her with a smile, "Traffic…"

Owen stopped few steps away from Stella when he noticed her icy glare. He understood that she is not upset only because he is late, but there is something else. He didn't dare come closer.

"I want to know how did you find apartment in Fairfield?" She spoke slowly while observing his behavior carefully.

Owen's eyes darted few times aimlessly. "Why are you asking that?"

His behavior betrayed that he is hiding something.

"Because I remember that I had a task for you to find an apartment in Fairfield for Sarah which is spacious, new or newly renovated, and NOT tied up with family." She emphasized 'not'.
