Stella had emptied her wine glass already and grabbed a new one from the waiter who was passing by her table. She was tapping her foot against the floor in uneasiness. She wasn't used to conversing with people, except for Adam, he was an exception.
She would occasionally humm in response with a nod every now and then. She didn't have a choice but could only reply to Taylor with a polite smile, who seemed to be enjoying their conversation which was more or less like a monologue. He was telling her about his company, everything about it. She politely smiled as he continued mentioning his achievements. Whereas, internally, she was yelling at the man before her. 'I don't want to hear about you or your company.'
What seemed like an eternity to Stella, Adam finally came back. She felt his presence before she could actually see him. She sighed inwardly with relief as she felt a familiar arm around her waist.
