Chapter 1675
"Just let them be. It's not true anyway."
Stella's indifferent attitude made Trevor frown. "People might think that something is going on between you and
Marshall if you don't clear things up. Keegan had just left us, and these rumors will not do you any good."
"Do you think the people around us have found out about this?"
It seemed that Stella was not bothered by how others would see her. Instead, she was more concerned about
whether everyone had heard about it.
"That's not something you should be worrying about now. I need you to come home as soon as possible and stay
away from Marshall!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella then flatly said, "Trevor, would you end your friendship with someone because of some baseless rumors?"
"This is different..."
"There's nothing different about this. I don't care, and neither does Mr. Moore. But it looks like people who have
nothing to do with this are more concerned about us than we are.
Let them say whatever they want. We're leaving. Goodbye."
With that, Stella ended the call abruptly.
Trevor was frustrated. He thought about how he had accompanied her to look for Keegan in the hospital last night
and then pulled such a stunt the next day.
He finally realized how impressive Keegan was to be able to deal with a person like his sister.
Suddenly, his phone rang. It was a call from Molly.
Without even having to think, Trevor knew that she was sent by the Moore family to get some information out of
him.
So, he set his phone to silent, put it aside, and let it ring without answering it.
He could not possibly control everything that Stella could or could not do, so he chose not to interfere.
Meanwhile, after hanging up, Stella put on her helmet and wrapped her arms around Marshall's waist. "Let's go,"
she said softly.
Marshall paused momentarily before gazing at her arms around his waist. At the same time, his heart raced.
"Why did Trevor call you?"
"Some Facebook pages are saying that we're dating, so he wanted me to stay away from you."
"And you..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"There's nothing going on between us, so why should I do that?" Stella paused and put her hands away. "I don't see
it as a problem, but if you do, I'll make a public statement to clarify things."
Marshall kept quiet.
Meanwhile, bikes roared past one after another, and their engines made a deafening noise. The wind that came
from behind them cut across Stella's skin, causing her to shiver coldly.
After about thirty seconds, Marshall lowered his gaze and asked, "If Keegan doesn't come back, will you let me take
care of you? You can think of him and love him all you want, but I just want to be with you. Is that okay?"
Stella's mind turned into a mess. After some time, she sighed and said, "What's the purpose of this?"
"I just want to protect you," Marshall said softly.
Stella remained silent for a long time. It was not until the bike team completed its first lap and returned to the
starting point that she said, "Let's talk about it later."
She did not give Marshall a definite yes or no. That was an outcome he had never anticipated.
