"Jericho!" His subordinates itched to take action, concerned about his safety.
Jericho told them to back off.
They reluctantly retreated. Noah watched them disappear into the twilight before slowly lowering his
gun.
"You're right. I've known all along that you're not Liam." Jericho sneered. "But so what? I didn't cause
you any trouble, did I?"
Noah's face darkened.
He wasn't wrong. When Amelia came to the store and bullied Stella, it was he who stepped in and
drove those people away.
But even so, Noah still harbored strong suspicions towards him.
"You know I'm not Liam." He coldly stared at Jericho. "Do you know who I am?"
Jericho paused, glanced at him, and suddenly smiled.
"I only know that your woman and my woman are close friends."
Noah wrinkled his brows.
Jericho emanated a rogue-like aura from head to toe, and the scar on his face added a touch of
viciousness to his appearance.
Noah couldn't tell if this man was a friend or a foe.
"Liam!" Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded from nearby. "Are you in the store?"
Noah and Jericho exchanged glances. Then they quickly got out of the bushes.
Aiden stood in the courtyard, holding a large box in his hands. However, as soon as he saw Jericho,
the smile on his face froze.
Noah nodded at him, trying to appear as natural as possible.
"When I just arrived, I bumped into Stella, and she rushed out in a hurry." Aiden smiled at him. "She
said she was going to the neighboring store to get some coffee beans and would be back soon."
"Ah."
The owners of the nearby coffee shops were of similar age to Stella, and she was easy to get along
with, so she quickly made friends with them.
When they got new coffee beans, they all thought of Stella and wanted to send her some.
Noah looked at Aiden and asked, "What brings you here today?"
"To bring you here." Aiden carried the large box inside and placed it on the table, then handed him the
delivery note.
The words "wedding dress" and "custom-made" were written on it.
Noah suddenly remembered that on the second day of their wedding, Stella went to return the wedding
dress. He couldn't stand the staff's mocking remarks towards her and, in a fit of anger, bought the most
expensive wedding dress from that store.
It cost them 6 thousand dollars, and Stella nagged about on their way back.
"I went back home a few days ago," Aiden told him. "This box was right outside your door. You don't
usually interact with people or have anyone pass by your house. I don't know how long this box has
been there. It was already covered in dust."
"As soon as I saw the delivery note still attached to the box, I hurriedly brought it to you."
"Is this the wedding dress Stella? It's almost your anniversary, and the wedding dress is only being
delivered now?"
Noah chuckled instead of answering his question.
How time flew! Their anniversary was coming up soon.
This wedding dress had arrived just in time. Perhaps there would be a sense of ceremony when Stella
wore it to celebrate their anniversary.
"Thank you." Noah patted Aiden on the shoulder. "Sit down and have a drink. I'll make you a cup of
coffee."
"No need!" Aiden smiled sincerely. "It's just a favor. I still have to go back to the clinic tonight, so I won't
drink here."
"You need to keep a clear mind while on duty, so have a cup. It won't take long."
"It's alright."
"If I don't make you one, my wife will say I'm not being a good host."
Noah turned on the coffee machine.
Aiden chuckled helplessly. "Liam, you've changed a lot since you got married."
"What?"
"You listen to your wife."
Noah turned around and smiled along.
Aiden glanced at Jericho and whispered, "Liam, hasn't your wife told you to stay away from those Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
former cellmates?"
Noah was taken aback, and it took him a while to realize that Aiden was talking about Jericho.
"Liam, you've already gotten married, and you're having a happy life with Stella. You shouldn't have any
involvement with that kind of person anymore."
"Don't blame me for speaking out of turn. I'm only saying this because I've always regarded you as a
friend."
"Liam, whenever you do something, think about Stella. Your life shouldn't be disturbed by that kind of
person!"
"I can't stand this anymore!"
Jericho, who was sitting in the corner of the bar, suddenly kicked over a stool and threw the lighter he
was playing with on the ground.
He exuded an icy and bewitching aura.
The customers at several tables in the shop hastily left with their coffee half-drunk.
In an instant, the room seemed to be shrouded in low pressure.
"Heh, constantly mentioning that kind of person." Jericho sneered. "What kind of person are you then?
Do you think you're a savior just by wearing a white coat?"
Aiden remained calm and stared fearlessly at him.
He couldn't understand why Mia was so obsessed with this kind of person.
"I'm not qualified to be a savior, but I think as a good friend, I should advise Liam."
"Good friend?"
Jericho's tone was mocking. "Liam and I were already good friends in prison. How long have you
known him?"
"Mr. Hart, the connection between people lies in fate, not the length of time they've known each other."
Jericho clenched his fists.
Fate? Was this guy talking about him and Mia?
"And," Aiden continued, "if you really consider Liam as a friend, then what about the multiple times you
humiliated him before? Is that how friends act?"
"I don't need your interference in things between Liam and me."
"Liam is my friend, and I will take care of matters related to him."
Aiden and Jericho stood on either side, while Noah stood in the middle with an unpleasant expression.
But it wasn't enough for these two to just argue. Every time they argued, they had to pull him in.
Noah had been tugged back and forth by the two of them, and the anger in his chest reached its
breaking point.
Just then, Jericho pulled at him again.
"Who the hell do you think you are?"
Then it was Aiden's turn to pull at him.
"I won't let you ruin my friend."
"You..."
"Both of you, stop it!" Noah shouted.
The room instantly fell silent.
But after the silence, a timid voice came. "What are you... doing?"
The three men froze at the same time.
They saw Stella standing in the doorway, staring at them in astonishment.
Her lively gaze swept over all three men, then finally landed on Noah. Aiden and Jericho came to their
senses, letting go of Noah's arms.
Stella tried her best to stifle a laugh.
She had never seen such a drama played by three men before.
It turned out men could be as jealous as this.
"Honey, I..." Noah didn't know how to explain, and he shot sharp glares at Aiden and Jericho.
