Chapter 1673
Marshall was taken aback. "You want to take a photo?' "Yeah. This is my first time skydiving, and I want to cherish
this moment," Stella said.
"I don’t have an action camera."
"Let’s just take a few shots before we exit the cabin. Is that okay?"
Marshall smiled. "Of course. I just think that the photos may not look as good without an action camera."
Stella unlocked her phone and said, "They will be."
She then turned on the camera, took a few selfies, and tossed her phone aside. After that, she took a deep breath
and closed her eyes. "Let’s do it," she said.
Marshall chuckled and teased her. "You look like a warrior on the guillotine."
Just as Stella was about to say something, Marshall jumped out of the helicopter with her.
The cold wind instantly struck Stella's face like needles, and the ear pressure imbalance caused her intense pain.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtApart from the deafening buzzing sound, she could not hear anything else. The fear of death left her voiceless.
She only came back to her senses when Marshall tapped her shoulder and held her hand, signaling her to open her
arms and bend her legs.
After the parachute was deployed, their descending speed slowed down. The wind stopped hurting her face and the
overwhelming fear that had choked her gradually faded as well. Stella looked at the vast land below through the
goggles and truly experienced how insignificant humans were in the universe.
There was a tiny accident when they were landing. Stella's knees hit the ground which left her with a tiny bruise.
Although she did not bleed, Marshall felt very guilty. One of the pilots had told him that Stella's bones were fine, but
he still kept his brows furrowed.
"Let's get it checked at the hospital," Marshall suggested.
"It's okay," Stella lifted her head and said, "Take me for another jump."
Marshall froze momentarily. He could feel that Stella did not particularly enjoy skydiving as her whole body had
been tense throughout the entire jump. So, he did not expect that she would ask for another jump at all.
Marshall kept quiet for a few seconds before he said, "Let's do it another day. It's getting windier."
Stella felt a little disappointed, but she quickly said, "You know how to ride a motorcycle too, right? Let's do that. I'm
guessing the wind isn't going to affect that."
Marshall found Stella's behavior somewhat strange. Apart from work, Stella had never asked him to do anything
else together. Before he could figure out what was happening with her, Stella added, "Do you have work in the
afternoon? If you do, just forget about what I said."
Marshall recollected himself and said in a gentle tone, "No, I'm free for the whole day. But it's not fun to ride a
heavy bike with all the traffic. Let's wait until nighttime to ride it in a circuit."
Stella smiled. "Let's have lunch and rest for a while, then."
Marshall was flustered by that smile and even his ears felt a little warm. He looked away and coughed lightly. "Sure,
let me make a call to have the bike ready."
"Okay."
When Marshall walked away, Stella took out her phone and uploaded the pictures she took on the helicopter to

Then, she switched to her other account and forwarded her own post to some Facebook pages, trying to "smear"
her own reputation.
After she was done with everything, Marshall came back. She then put her phone away and said, "Let's go. It's my
treat today."
Very soon, the hashtags # RisingStarStellaHallHasANewBoyfriend and # StellaHalllsDatingHerLawyer got on the
trending searches on Facebook.
The success of The Palace had gained her a lot of fans in the industry. Combined with false accusations from the
former superstar, Bella Young, and the subsequent incident about Sunlight Kindergarten, she became extremely
popular.
These two incidents made Stella extremely well-received among the public. Unlike other celebrities who would seize
this opportunity to take on more jobs and endorsements, Stella disappeared from showbusiness instead.
She did not even update her Facebook regularly and barely took any endorsement deals. After The Palace, she took
part in a show called Motives for Murder, which had not been scheduled for release. Then, rumors had it that she
participated in an art film as well.
