Chapter 2008 Everyone in the party was enjoying themselves, singing and drinking. Stella had been sitting next to Lucas as they chatted with the people around them. Melody could not help but feel somewhat envious of her.
Stella knew how to break the ice with anyone, whereas Melody only felt uneasy in front of strangers. She could never be as sociable as Stella.
As Lucas sat in the crowd, he could not help but occasionally glance at the lonely-looking Melody, who sat alone in the corner.
Lucas narrowed his eyes on her. When Beatrice told him to take Melody to the movies, he had no interest in going to the movie with her at all as they were only pretending to be a couple. They did not have to do what regular couples do. Nonetheless, his grandmother had bought the tickets, and he did not want to disappoint her. Thus, he decided to go along with her suggestion.
He meant it when he agreed to take Melody to the movie, but somehow, they ended up at the surprise birthday party Stella prepared for him instead.

Lucas gazed at Melody from afar. Suddenly, he stood up and walked to her.
"Let's go," said Lucas.
"Huh? Where to?" asked Melody as she stood up slowly.
"Or do you prefer to stay here?" asked Lucas as he grabbed her hand. They were leaving regardless of her answer.
"Lucas? Where are you going?" asked Stella. She walked up to them when she saw them leaving. Her expression turned cold when she saw their hands together. She could not hide her emotions anymore.
"Lucas, it's your birthday today. I've planned this party for a long time. We can't celebrate your birthday without you," said Stella as she stared at their hands.
Lucas gazed around and said, "Thank you for everything today, but I need a little alone twith my wife. Please don't mind US. Keep drinking and have fun while we're gone. Everything's ontoday. Enjoy." Lucas had driven Stella up the wall when he said he wanted salone twith his wife. She stopped him before he could leave. "Well, where will you be celebrating with Miss Melody, then?" Melody was extremely embarrassed. She could sense anger in Stella's eyes as if she could not wait to burn her alive.
"Lucas, I think you should stay and celebrate with them," said Melody.
She tried to pull her hand out of Lucas' grip, but he was holding her tight and would not let go.
"It's a secret. Anyway, enjoy," said Lucas firmly before he left the party with Melody.
Stella watched them leave with eyes burning with rage.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Stella, we..." Everyone looked at Stella nervously after Lucas had left the room. They were worried she would explode in anger.
When Stella realized there were still people around her, she immediately composed herself and turned with a smile. "Everything's alright. Something cup so Lucas had to go. Let's keep the party going!" Everyone was relieved to hear that, so they continued to have fun.
Stella sat in the corner where Melody sat previously. She swirled her glass of wine as she watched everyone else enjoy themselves.
When she first met Melody at that party, she had never once seen m Melody as her rival. However, it seemed that she had underestimated this woman.
Melody still did not understand what of om had just happened. After Lucas dragged her out of the Auband walked her to their car, she asked, "Lucas, won't Miss Stella be mad at ON you for leaving like this?" "How about you, then?" asked Lucas as he lowered his eyes to look at her." Forget about others-let's talk about you. Weren't you angry too?" X
