Stella checked her schedule. Aside from that evening, she was completely booked. "I'm only free tonight, but I have a meeting at six, so it would have to be later. Is that okay?"
"Of course," Foreman's voice was warm. "You handle your meeting. I'm in no rush."
After setting a time, Stella returned to her work. Around five o'clock, there was a knock on her door. She looked up to see Foreman standing there.
"Foreman, what are you doing here?" she asked, surprised.
"I was in the neighborhood for some business," he said with a smile. "I finished early, so I thought I'd come wait for you. You go ahead and work. We can leave for dinner together when you're done."
Stella glanced at the time. "But you'll have to wait at least two hours."
"It's no problem," he said. "I'd either be waiting here or waiting at the restaurant."
Seeing his point, Stella didn't insist. "What would you like to drink? Coffee? Something else?"
"Just water is fine."
After getting him a glass of water, Stella immersed herself in her work. It was the first time since she'd given up the violin that Foreman had seen her in a professional capacity. Her focus was intense; his presence didn't seem to distract her at all. She was clearly busy, signing documents, reviewing contracts, and making decisions on various partnerships.

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....
Can’t wait to see what joshua will do...
Why would the author of this book do that to Stella? Such cruelty!...
So many chapters are incomplete. Missing pages. Hard to get continuity...
