You can't be that naive about people Stella replied, "And you shouldn't assthe worst about everyone either. Keep that up and you'll never get a boyfriend." Kimmy was speechless. Too cynical? Who goes to someone's place and conveniently loses a million-dollar item! That had to be on purpose. right "Alright, just geta cup of coffee." Stella said.
Whether or not he was trying to scam her didn't really matter; the key thing was, no one could actually scam her. She was doing pretty well just not scamming anyone herself.
Last night, Abraham had gotten drunk and made a mess of her. She was still a little dazed.
Kimmy nodded and left. Once Stella was alone in the office, her phone started buzzing.

Thank god she had. With Abraham's tone right now, if she hadn't returned it, she would've been completely screwed.
"What have I always told you?" Abraham asked.
"Don't accept gifts from men. I didn't take it," she replied.
She added the last part in a soft, slightly wronged voice.
Feeling his serious tone, she quickly tacked on, "I really didn't." "Good girl," Abraham said.
Stella rolled her eyes. Good girl? Is that still an appropriate thing to call me! "So I can never accept gifts from men? I'm an adult now.” There was a hint of testing in her voice. Sure, Abraham didn't have other women around, but she wasn't a child anymore.
And after what happened last night - Just thinking about it made her cheeks flush.

"At home. You're gonna bring it to me?" Bring it? That ring was long gone-may it rest in peace. What, am I supposed to go dig through the city dump? "I'm coming to you now." Louis hung up the call without waiting for a response.
Half an hour later, he pulled up outside Alex's place.
"The ring?" Alex asked the second he saw him.
"Get in." "What? No-where's my ring?" "Just get in. I'll take you to it." Alex froze. Taketo it? This scumbag really had given it to Marion? Now Alex was pissed. He yanked the car door open and jumped in. Taketo it? If Louis didn't get it back today, this wasn't going to end well.

Alex figured Louis was driving him to see Marlon. But the longer they were on the road, the more wrong the route felt. "This isn't the way to Marlon's place. Where are we going?" "You'll find out soon enough," Louis said.
"Did you sell my ring? Louis' head throbbed. At this point, he didn't want to talk to Alex at all.
