Bab 163: Bargain

Stella wiped her tears which had somehow escaped her eyes during all these revelations before getting out of Adam's embrace. "I will ask a maid." She spoke up before making her way out of the living room.

"What is it?" Adam spoke up as soon as he saw Stella disappearing from his line of sight.

"My, my. I have heard a lot about the intellectuality of the great Adam Levinson. Never thought that I would get to witness it one day myself. You sure know how to live upto the rumors." Cecilia replied with a smirk. 

"Will you please directly get to the point?" Adam fought the urge to roll his eyes at the lady sitting before him. He could tell that he had Stella's best interest at her heart and that is why she deliberately sent her out. 

"Since you already knew me, then you must be knowing about my family as well. And by family I mean the Aldrichs." She decided to go easy on the boy. They didn't have much time before Stella would return.
