Chapter 1426
Stella got a call from Roger just after she finished work at the studio. “How was it?” Roger asked eagerly.
Stella straightforwardly told him, “Don’t ever set me up with a man like that again.”
“What’s wrong?”
Roger could tell that the blind date did not go well just by hearing her tone. He was stunned for a long time after
Stella told him what had happened. “I’m sorry. I didn’t think he would be like that…”
Roger had dealt with him several times and thought he was a reliable man. Hence, he introduced him to Stella
because he thought he was nice.
Stella rubbed her temple. “Forget it. I don’t really care about a man’s appearance. What made you think I would

Although she said that, the man’s average look was not the main reason that turned her off. It was because of his
extremely disrespectful words to her and how he assumed she was his right off the bat.
Roger sighed. “Okay, I understand.”
Stella expected Roger to stop for a while. Instead, he returned the next day and selected many men for her to
choose from.
Stella felt troubled. “Didn’t I tell you to stop?”
“How can I? What if you decide that Weston is much better and go back to him again?”
Roger’s obsession with Stella had already diminished, but he would not budge on just one thing. He did not want to
see Stella and Weston ever reuniting again.
Stella had a headache. “I know you’re doing it for my own good, but I really…”
“I really don’t want to meet strange people like that again,” Stella said, almost in tears. a
“Trust me! It’ll be different this time! The man’s profile has gone through layers of screening. He’s definitely a nice
man!”
Roger sounded very sincere.
“Besides, I’m not the only one who thinks he’s a good person.”
“Who else?”
Stella keenly noticed the strange tone in his words.
Roger avoided her eyes and told her, “You’ll know when you get there.”
Stella could not counter him and had no choice but to agree. However, she was not quite that enthusiastic about

Stella wouldn’t be doing these pointless things if not for the need for some distraction. Fortunately, the second man
Roger introduced seemed much more reliable.
The two met in the same long–established cafe. It was a music restaurant where one could listen to live piano
music while enjoying coffee.
As soon as Stella sat down, the man opened the napkin for her and asked her like a gentleman. “What would you
like to drink?”
He was a good–looking man and seemed elegant, but Stella could not tell his age from his appearance. She
guessed that he was probably in his thirties.
“Hello. I’m Cicily.”
“I know you, Cicily,” he said, smiling at her. “I’ve heard all your music.” Then, he quickly named a few of her
famous pieces.
