After encountering so much humiliation from the young man who made her life miserable as he entered into her life, now she's facing his family at the same time receiving his mother's glares.
Stella can deal with his mother but she didn't expect to meet his entire family, as if she's been stalked by them since then. She's trying to be comfortable while preventing his mother's death glares.
"So, she's the girl your father keeps telling me about? I'm not wondering how did she able to get involved in your life, Elton," Linda said and her smile was fake.
"You're really pretty, Stella. I know Elton would find a beautiful lady like you," Kathy uttered.
She's Chris's mother and she's compassionate which Stella already like her, how she wishes that Kathy was Elton's mother. But it's just a wish.
"Don't you dare encourage her, Kathy. She's unsuitable to be my son's fiance even his wife, and we both know what that woman wants to my son," Linda objected.
The whole table has a dreadful aura, but Stella, she's in the hot seat right now. Like they are the juries and preparing to interrogate her.
"Linda, how can you say that? Not because her state in life didn't reach your expectations you can accuse her."
"Come on, don't be such an angel."
"I am not. I'm just trying to understand what's happening right now. You shouldn't freak out without knowing the reason behind this," she answered.
"I will freak out whenever I want and don't you dare tell me, what should I need to do. Elton is my son, and you have nothing to do about it."
"Ladies, Enough!" George interfered because they start getting the customers' attention.
The two ladies shut their mouths when the head of their family spoke. Whenever George always wanted to have a peaceful dinner, it never end up well.
"Could you please calm down? You putting our family in so much embarrassment! I called you here to discuss Elton's wedding but, how can I do that if you two keep fighting?" He muttered in disbelief.
"Why don't we just talk about it? I still have a business to deal with, and hoping this meeting will end before I came late," Chris suggested.
No one speaks so George finds that opportunity to open their supposed conversation, if his son didn't interfere maybe he'll going to deal with his wives behavior.
"Before this evening turns into chaos, I want to declare my son as the next CEO of my business on one condition. He needs to marry his girl and prove it wasn't planned," He started.
"What? You're letting my son marry that girl? I can't believe I'm hearing it from you, George," Linda disagree and pointed at Stella, "I am not letting that woman become my son's wife! She is not worthy to be one. Perhaps her mother is the mastermind, gold diggers always after rich guys."
That word triggered Stella's rude side because she can accept his mother's painful words, but she wouldn't allow them to insult her mother. So, she wiped her mouth after putting the utensils down violently causing them to look at her.
"Mrs. Richards, I know you hated me so much because I am going to be your son's wife. But I won't let you insult my mom in front of me not even let her be involved in this situation."
She look at the lady sharply, "Insult me as long as you are satisfied, but when you involved her in this situation for the last time? I don't know if I can respect you anymore..."
"See?! She's threatening me, George! How can you allow this unrespectful woman to be my son's wife?!" Elton's mother shouted.
"I am not threatening you, Mrs. Richards, I am just warning you for insulting my mother," She answered.
"You!"
"Enough!" George uttered.
He massage his temple because of frustration and didn't know how to deal with his rude wife but Stella caught his interest. She's bold which no one can drag her down, and enough to put their enemies away.
"Stella," he glances at the young lady, "You are brave and I like that. Why don't you introduce yourself to us?"
He nodded, "By the way, I'm Stella Hamilton, I'm a college student and my life is simple. I'm not rich like you but, my status in life is no reason for your son not to love me. I love him and, I'm ready to prove that I'm not after your son for money."
Meanwhile, Elton directly drank the wine in his glass due to the young lady's serious explanation. He seemed to want to believe that what he was saying was true and that there was no lying, if only he hadn't planned what Stella would say, maybe he would have believed it because of her good acting.
"What do you say, Elton? Your girl has the guts to tell our father about her faithfulness to you, but do you think that loyalty will last long?" His annoying brother strikes again which he's not surprised at all.
"Stella's love for me was genuine, that's why I know her loyalty will last long. What about you brother? Does my wife love you even if money is not involved?"
"Of course she does, Elton."
"I don't think so. Why don't we ask her after this? I'm always ready for any adventure, especially if you're with me," He grinds.
His brother smiled at him but he knew that those smiles were fake, and if they weren't facing their father he might have received a punch from his older brother.
"How can you prove to us that it's not money you're after my brother? And are you ready to be the wife of a man who does nothing but hurt women?" Chris asks Stella to stop himself from hurting his youngest brother.
"I can do that," she immediately answers.
"How? Elton used to have more than five girls on his bed and he always brings trouble to our family, so how can you prove yourself? Unless you use some magic to tame his playboy side."
But Stella just smiled, "Don't underestimate a woman like me, Chris. You want me to prove it to you? Then, I will marry Elton and I want that wedding to happen two days from now."
