Love After Divorce

Chapter 103: Stella shook his hand off her arm and said awkwardly, Tristan… Im sorry.

Dont mention it again.

I didnt mean to.

As the two of them were talking, a deep voice interrupted from the side.

When Stella looked in the direction of the voice, she saw a familiar figure walking toward them.

His cold gaze was fixed on Stella, and his terrifying dark eyes held a power that made her shiver.

Stella sighed inwardly.

She didnt know why her luck was so bad.

Why did she always run into this man during her lunch break? RK walked past Stella, glanced at her, and said coldly, There is only one minute left before lunch break ends.

Get back to work.

Stella felt speechless, but since the boss had spoken, what could she do? After RK finished speaking, his cold eyes shifted from Stella to Tristan, who was standing across from her.

The two men locked eyes, and it was as if there were hidden forces exploding between them.

Every time these two looked at each other, Stella always felt the atmosphere was strange, as if there was something unspoken between them.

Once RK left, Stella turned to Tristan and said, Tristan, I have to get back to work.

Tristan didnt let go of her arm immediately, but he relaxed his grip and said, Stella, I dont like you working at his company.

Go home and think carefully about accepting me.

I can support both you and Adrian with my abilitiesits more than enough.

He had always been a respectful person, especially when it came to Stella.

Whatever her choice, he would unconditionally support her, no matter the circumstances.

Thats why, in the past, when Stella agreed to marry RK, he chose to step back.

Tristan was tough and forceful, but when it came to Stella, he couldnt bring himself to hurt her.

Thats why everything he did was for her sake.

Stella didnt say anything.

She lowered her head to hide the thoughts in her eyes.

At that moment, Stella couldnt explain anything, so she simply nodded and walked away.

Every journey starts at gαℓησν????????s․c???????? As for Tristan, there were too many things between themthings that werent easily resolved.

It wasnt just the years of separation but also the relationship they had as brother and sister.

More importantly, there were moral and ethical issues involved.

That wasnt something easily overcome.

Whats more, Stella didnt want to drag Tristan down.

There was too much of a gap in their statuses.

So, being with him was something she had never considered.

On the way back to the office, Emily couldnt help but say, Stella, dont you want to consider Tristan? He cares so much about you! She added, Let me tell you, hes much better than your ex-husband! Look at RKjust now, while you were talking to Tristan, RK still tried to control you.

Hes your ex-husband! What right does he have to do that? Youve already divorced him! Hes really… too much! Emily was clearly angry and dissatisfied.

She couldnt just stand by and watch Stella suffer.

Maybe it was because they had spent so many years abroad together, or maybe because they had taken care of each other and Adrian for so long.

Stella was very grateful to Emily.

Over time, they had become like sisters, advising each other on life matters.

Stella shook her head and sighed.

She spoke slowly, Its impossible for anything to happen between me and Tristan.

Ive always treated him as my brother since we were young.

But now… suddenly, their relationship had changed from that of siblings to something more like lovers.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldnt accept it.

Whats more, deep down, she wasnt sure she could fully give herself to himnot in that way, not in love.

Emily continued, Hey! Youre one of a kind, you know that? In my opinion, Tristan is one of the most reliable men out there! He can take care of you and Adrian like no one else can.

She added, Its true! Hes loved you for years, and even after you divorced and had a child, he never looked down on you.

That kind of devotion… thats real love! Stella remained silent.

Emily persisted, Stella, dont rush to make a decision! If you want to find a father for Adrian, I think Tristan is the best choice.

Think about it… isnt that true? Stella sighed, feeling a wave of complicated emotions.

Maybe Tristan really was a reliable man, especially for Adrians sake.

But she didnt want to be with Tristan just because of that.

It wouldnt be fair to him.

Forget it! Dont mention it.

Lets just let things unfold naturally, Stella said, shaking her head.

She didnt want to discuss the matter anymore.

As they waited for the elevator, they saw RK heading toward the presidents private elevator.

Emily couldnt help but mutter discontentedly, I think your ex-husband wants to have it both ways! Hes already divorced you, but he still wants to control you and keep you away from other men.

What a bastard! .
