“Lunch is almost ready. I had them prepare some of your favorite dishes. You should grab a bite before you leave,” Cordelia tried to convince her to stay.

Stella declined politely, “Sorry, Grandma, but I have plans to meet some friends for lunch at half past twelve. I’m afraid I won’t make it on time if I stay any longer. It isn’t ideal for me to be late since we’re colleagues.”
