" 'Darren' who?". Ayla asked.
"Darren the one you said is cold and aloof ,strange some times and is best for 'ME' out there". Stella said repeating each world she heard from Ayla clearly and emphasize it.
"Did I now?". Ayla wanted to divert the conversation but could not think of anything, so she finally bites the bullet in her mouth seeing Stella who was firm on knowing, "Well Uncle and aunt are the one who were supposed to tell you this."
"Hmm". Stella did not say anything waiting for Ayla to talk.
Ayla took a deep breath and said, "So there is this marriage talk between Darren and you that I heard of".
Stella:"…."
WHAT THE H*LL?
How did I end up in this by absolutely doing nothing.
Stella was utterly dumbfounded.
"Uncle and aunt were going to tell you about this today. I don't know much about this though or anyone else as it was long time ago talk.
I think Darren also didn't know about this too, he never talked on this with us. As it was decided uncle and aunt, your parents were going to tell you about this today, but guess they didn't, which means that you didn't know about this all.
"By the way Darren is the same person who saved you that night in your apartment". Ayla dropped another bomb.
'DAMN!!!! WHAT!!!?
That f*reaking INHUMAN. Indeed cold and aloof.'
'Oh no no, I'm also having powers now. I'm also inhuman now.' Stella thought, ' However the name suites him more'. She thought the next moment.
She was staring at Ayla while being completely stupefied.
"So please pretend that you don't know about this anything until they tell you, huhh?". Ayla said giving Stella puppy eye face, and it would be lie if Stella said that she was not moved by that sweet face of Ayla's.
Stella stared hard at Ayla processing every detail Ayla said and finally nodded at Ayla's puppy face which went bright at her nod and Ayla hugs Stella tightly.
Ayla left Stella's room after saying this as a maid had come to call her.
For some reason Stella felt close with Ayla like having a sister beside her Stella felt good, to have someone beside her who care for her. To have a real sister next to her.
After Ayla left Stella thought that if anyone has to request something from her than just come right now, all at once, and she would just nod and agree to it. What worst could that be than what had happened so far.
Stella pace back and forth in her room. Darren was the one who had saved her that night. Stella was really thankful to him. His presence had brought her ease from the upfront danger at that time however at the same time scared her and to be with him…..
Stella jolted away while remembering his cold deep ocean like eyes that could devour her without her knowledge.
"Oh no no no no think something". Stella started pacing from one end to another for a long time until a small bulb started glowing bright above her head, finally getting a solution.
According to what Ayla said it seems like Darren also didn't know anything about the marriage. So shouldn't she use it in her advantage.
And from how inhuaman he acted that night he doesn't seem to be someone who would take a liking to me so I don't have to worry about it as long as I keep a safe distance from that f*reaking inhuman.
Stella smacked her head on the pillow.
___
In xx city
In Darren's office
Darren was sitting on his chair looking through some important file that needed his signature.
Oliver his secretary stood in front of his desk waiting for his boss approvals on the matter.
The door of Darren office fly wide open and a person with blond hair peeked in and finding Darren sitting behind the desk he came rushing in and sat at the sofa making his presence loud.
Darren frown but didn't said anything.
"Will you stop rushing Odin ?". Another person came in after Odin chilling him but Odin ignored it like always.
Darren signs the document and pass it to Frinnik making him leave the room.
Oliver greeted the two guys who entered respectively .
They are the frequent visitor and also among the few people who are allowed to enter without any restrain.
Odin and kai greeted Oliver before he left. Darren come to take seat at the sofa joining them.
"Kai just spilled it out now". Odin said to kai. He was very eager to know about this girl 'Stella' who Darren had told kai to find information of.
Kai shook his head at Odin but he could not blame him for this. He was also stupefied when Darren out of nowhere asked him to find everything about a girl.
"What did you found?". Darren ask crossing his one leg on another occupying the entire sofa for himself.
Odin phone suddenly rang, he removed it from his pocket and saw the number flash on the screen, "You carry on. I need to take this one, it's from my favourite cupcake shop" he said beamingly and spirited up from the sofa and went out.
"Stella McCartney". Kai continued after Odin left, "Stated in xx city with her parents until she was 7 years old. Any further information about her parents is block, but as we know after her uncle, Cairo died Stella's father, Martin McCartney took over. They left Stella in xx city and didn't take her to silver city with them. Don't know the reason behind it though.
So after this she stayed with an old lady maybe someone from her mother's side who died just few years ago. There is not much information about the old lady.
After turning 18 years old Stella started doing part-time job and also got scholarships. She is also involved in social activities.
Well there is also one more thing, but I don't know if it's correct or not". Kai said taking a pause and continued, "I think Stella is back with her parents in Silver city now".
"What make you think that?". Darren ask clamly.
He already knew everything but still had asked Kai to look into Stella's information so that he can destroy any possible information that could lead the enemy link to Stella whereabouts.
"Got to know that she had taken leave from her college for a period of time. Her house is lock and was and the last trace of her was heading toward Silver City, after that there's no trace of her". Kai said. He had never failed to find information about anyone. "Someone had deliberately erased it and that must be Stella's family.
"Do you want me to find….". Kai was also curious to know about the sudden appearance of Stella. He could guess that there is something more to it and wanted to use his inner connection to know the truth.
At this moment Odin entered back slowly.
"No need for that". Darren said.
"Okay". Kai said a bit dejected.
Odin gave a meaningful gaze at kai as to ask why Darren was asking for this to which kai shrugged his shoulder also not knowing why.
"I want you to erase every possible information about Stella which connected her to McCartney family you got. NO one should be able to trace her." Darren said. He didn't want the enemy's to trace her and Kai was the perfect person to make sure of that.
