My Little Sunshine

Chapter 60: Dinner (1)

Parking the black Maybach in the driveway, Adam stepped out and made his way to the passenger side. Opening the car door, he offered his hand to Stella, which she took instantly. After helping her down, he headed towards the entrance of the mansion that stood tall before them, along with Stella.

He didn't let go of her hand even after entering the mansion.

"It's so beautiful." Stella looked around with her awestruck face.

"Well, Auntie was a really good interior designer. Uncle hasn't changed a thing after her, and had kept the place exactly it was when she was alive." Adam gave her a sad smile.

"Sounds like, he loved her a lot." Stella spoke softly with a faint smile on her face.

"He still loves her." Adam replied. Just as he was about to continue telling her about them, he heard someone approaching them.

"Good evening, Master Adam." The butler of the Nelson family greeted him. 

"Good evening." Adam replied with a soft smile on his face. 

The old butler's gaze fell on the lady standing closely to him as their hands were interlocked. "Good evening Miss." He greeted Stella politely.

"Good evening." Stella replied politely as well.

"Let me take you to living room. They are already waiting for you there." The butler spoke as he guided them to the living room. Once they were outside the living room, the butler bowed his head and left.

Adam and Stella stepped inside.

"There you are boy. I thought I will be eating alone." Liam looked at him with his narrowed eyes.

"Don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame her." Adam spoke pointing a finger at Stella as he made his way towards him. "She was tired, so I let her took a nap. Who knew a nap means a proper sleep to the girl?"

Stella looked at him with her eyes widened in shock as she opened and closed her mouth to say something a couple of times, but nothing came out.

It was only then that Liam noticed the boy didn't come alone. Though he had informed him beforehand but he only took it as a joke. The boy had grown up before his eyes and he had never seen him with a girl.

His eyes trailed to the petite girl who was standing at a distance from where he was. The longer he looked at the girl's face, the more he felt confused. No matter what, he could never forget that face. Before he could say anything to the girl, someone came in the room.

"Adam!" Rachel yelped in excitement as soon as she entered the room. "How are you? God I have missed you so much." She exclaimed as she made her way to where he was standing.

"Hey Rachel, I didn't know that I will be seeing you tonight." He gave her a polite nod in response. 

"I actually went out with my friends. Just came back. I will go and freshen up, will you see later." She replied giving him a wide smile. 

Rachel then ran up to her Dad. "I will join you guys at the dining table." She said, giving him a hug.

As she was heading out, her eyes fell on Stella who was quietly standing, looking everywhere but at her. 

"I didn't know that you bring your secretary to family dinners as well." Rachel said with a smirk on her face.

"Come here Stella." Adam asked her to come where he was standing with Liam. 

Stella scooted over to him.

"I want you to meet Stella. My girlfriend." He said introducing her to Liam as he wrapped an arm around her waist. "Stella, meet Liam Nelson, my father's childhood friend. You can just call him Uncle Liam." 

"Good evening. It's a pleasure to meet you Uncle Liam." Stella politely nodded.

"Truth to be told kid, the honor is all mine." He gave her a warm smile. "It's good that you finally found someone boy." He said giving Adam a pat on his shoulder.

Rachel watched their interactions quietly as she stood by the door. She clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging in her palms. She really wanted to throw something at her and she would have by now if it wasn't for her father. 

'Enjoy while you can slut, before I make him mine.' She thought to herself, gritting her teeth in anger. Giving them another glance, she made her way out of the room.

"Let's go to the dining room. Rachel will join us there." Liam said to them.

All three of them headed to the dining room which was more like a hall, with Liam guiding the couple. Though Adam knew the way like the back of his hand but he walked slowly next to Stella with a hand resting at her lower back.

They settled down on the table where Liam sat on the head chair with Adam sitting on his left and Stella sat next to him.

Liam kept his eyes on the girl, taking in small details about her. He couldn't control himself anymore and finally chose to ask her the question which has been bothering him since he first saw the girl.

"Stella? How are you related to Rosaline?"
