Lucia had no objections to that. That sounds great. Im relieved to see how well you two are getting along. Youre such a thoughtful person. With you and Matthew by her side, I dont think theres anything for me to worry about, she said happily.
She then reminded, Also, if you have time, take Lindsay out more to see the city. She has been abroad for so long, and shes not very familiar with Seamarsh. Getting out frequently will help her adjust more quickly.
Okay. Dont worry. Ill take good care of Lindsay, Stella promised.
She hung up the phone just as Matthew entered from the balcony.
He reached out and wrapped her in a warm embrace. Did you call Grandma?
Stella leaned into his chest. Yes. I told her that were going to let Lindsay live in Prosper Bay for the time being. She cares a lot about Lindsay, so if she found out about the incident and her injury, she would be very worried.
Grandma tends to overthink things, so its better to hide it from her, Matthew said in agreement.
Stella nodded, and then remembered Kristians invitation. She looked up at him and said, By the way, Kristian called me today.
Kristian? Matthews brows furrowed at once. Why did he call you?
Stella told him the truth and then asked, Are you free tomorrow night? Lets go there together.
Well, since he took the initiative to invite us, of course, we will go, Matthew readily agreed. We should also ask Bella when she plans to start the treatment. Cordell is already well-prepared.
So soon? Stella asked, hugging Matthew.
Matthew nodded in response.
Stella felt much more relieved to see that he had arranged everything.

They both fell silent. Then, the scene where she was robbed today suddenly appeared in Stellas mind.
She couldnt help sighing.

Matthew noticed it. He asked, Whats wrong? What are you thinking?
He lowered his eyes and looked at her.
I just remember what happened this morning. Stellas shoulders slumped, feeling a lingering fear in her heart. When the robber rushed over with a knife, my mind went completely blank. I didnt expect Lindsay to stand in front of me. This time, its not only you, but I also owe her a favor.
Matthew fell silent.
Stella continued, Weve only known each other for a day. Were not even close. But she didnt stand idly by when such a thing happened to me. Your grandma has really educated her well. She has taught Lindsay to become kind and brave.
She believed most people would be wise enough to protect themselves first when they encountered such a situation.
After being silent for a while, Matthew said, She grew up under Grandmas care, so she must have been influenced by Grandma. But her familys situation is a little complicated.
Stella raised her head and looked at him in surprise. Isnt she Lucias friends granddaughter? Why complicated?
