Our Journey Back To Love

Chapter 168 

Brian wouldn’t have regretted it even if he had wronged Stella. Joseph advised, “If you’ve misunderstood 

her, buy her a gift as a token of apology.” 

In the afternoon, Stella received a parcel at the studio. The studio remained open for business despite the 

lawsuit. It was common practice among business owners. 

Xenia delivered the parcel upstairs. “Ms. Yates, you’ve got a parcel.” 

Stella was watching surveillance footage of Alice on the second floor, trying to find clues of any sort 

“My parcel?” She took the parcel over and opened it with a utility knife. It was a pink floral diamond bracelet. Stella could tell it was valuable at a glance. 

It had to be from Brian. Everything he gave her was pink, even though she was no longer a teenager. 

Stella called Brian. “I received a pink diamond bracelet. Is it from you?” 

“Yeah,” Brian was going through documents in his office. “Do you like it? 

“Why did you give me this?” Did he send it to apologize to her? 

“Don’t you young ladies like pink items? I came across this and bought it for you.” 

Stella’s mouth twitched, “I’ve told you I’m past the age of being into this color.” 

“I think it suits you.” 

“It doesn’t.”  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Stella didn’t want his gift. It looked expensive, and he would ask her to pay if she lost it. “I don’t want it. You can send someone over to take it back 

“You don’t want it?” Brian was dumbfounded. She actually rejected the gift he had carefully picked 

She used to be over the moon when he casually bought her a doll in the past. And now, she wasn’t even 

content with the unique, customized bracelet? 

Brian’s face instantly turned cold. “Just throw it away if you don’t want it! There’s no need to call me!” 

With that, he hung up. Stella nearly smashed the desk in a fit of anger. What was with Brian? 

She wanted to throw the pink diamond bracelet in her hand away. But thinking it had to be worth tens of millions of dollars, she held back the urge 

Otherwise, Brian might ask her to compensate for it. How was she going to raise tens of millions now? 

Stella opened the safe, throwing in the bracelet roughly. After that, she carried on with her work. 

At 7:30 pm, Stella was still in the studio when her phone rang. She answered the call, only to hear 

Bernard’s voice. “Hey, Stella.” 

Stella tightened her grip on the phone. At first, she didn’t think Bernard had any feelings for her. 

After hearing Brian’s words last night, she became somewhat uneasy. Could Bernard have really fallen in love with her? 

Toto tell you something. Bernard’s voice was low with a sense of foreboding. 

Stella’s heart somehow felt heavy. “Go ahead, Bernard. 

I found Alice.” 

Stella’s eyes lit up. “Seriously?” 

‘But she’s dead, She died in a river in Labevia when we found her. The local police said she accidentally 

fell into the river from the cruise.”
