"Scott?" Stella called him softly as she sat down beside him on the couch. Lillian and Blake had left after having their breakfast, saying that they had to take care of certain things. Stella had a hunch about what, or more precisely who, those certain things might be.
When she didn't hear a reply from Scott, she looked towards Adam, asking for some help silently.
Adam passed her a small smile. "Katty? Why don't we go outside. You will love the new plants that my gardener planted a while back."
As if taking his hint, Katherine agreed right away. "Sure, why not!"
Stella was looking at the two of them with her eyes widened in shock. She asked him for help, not to leave her all alone to deal with this on her own.
Adam turned around when he was by the door of the living room and passed her a devilish smile before disappearing out of the room.
