“Yeah, I’m good. I’m just a bit dizzy,” Stella said, forcing a smile on her face.
“I’m so sorry about tonight, Stella. I really thought Zola would’ve changed by now. Don’t let her get to you.” Besty apologized.
She had thought Zola would’ve gotten over her grudge. Unfortunately, even after all those years, she was still the same.
Stella gave her a brief smile and continued walking.
She was about to call a taxi when Zola yelled her name.
“Stella!”
Zola and her husband walked towards her, hand in hand.
“Colden and I were just leaving. Wanna go with us? We can give you a ride.”
She put on her most innocent act but her eyes gave her away.
Besty quickly interfered.
“She’s going with me.”
Stella could barely hold herself up, everything around her was beginning to blur. The effects of the wine were setting in.
“No, thank you. I’m fine.”
As she was still speaking, several Maserati cars suddenly parked in front of the hotel.
Men in suits came out of the cars and walked to Stella.

Everyone watched in awe.
Zola stood in place, a look of confusion and disbelief on her face.
“What is going on? Who are you people?”

One of the men stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Stella.
“Mrs. Clark, we were sent by Mr. Clark to pick you up.”
Stella was confused, and the alcohol in her system wasn’t helping either.
“Wait, Maverick?”
“Yes, ma’am. So please get in the car.”
