Ella shoved her phone back into her bag after typing something on it and turned over to see the sleeping figure next to her.
Ella regretted dragging Stefan to her hometown, but every time she remembered something essential about her birth, she couldn't stop herself from returning there without Michelle's awareness.
Yes, she lied to her mother about going on a business trip with Stefan since it was the only way she could keep her mother from finding out what she was up to.
The car soon came to a stop, and Stefan awoke with a jerk.
"Are we already there?" he inquired, looking out the window.
"Yes, we are. Now, come on, we need to get in the house before anyone notices us," Ella said, hastily paying the money and walking out.
Ella didn't want to draw anyone's sight, especially their noisy neighbours. So she intended to take a morning flight to their residence and avoid being spotted by anyone.
