Then we she was released from the hospital, Aiden told her that she must imagine that she was living when she was dying, which helped boost Stella's self-esteem. Soon after, Stella goes skydiving and does activities that people wouldn't normally do if they were dying. Therefor, she was living her days as one of them might be her last. Then, Stella goes to Paris to find love, as her siblings (Elizabeth more than Aiden) have already found love in their hopes. When Stella leaves home to go to Paris, she bumps into Wes, who is 'lost'.

The two move back to Stella's family home, announcing their engagement. Stella's family rejoices over the exciting occasion. That pretty much sums up the story that Stella tells the shopkeeper, and he ends up giving her a free cake.

Of course, Wes and Stella rejoice and are content in joyful tears. Stella announces the good news to the family and they celebrate. But, Stella's father, Peter, was acting quite strange at the celebration.

The next morning, Stella confronts her father, only to find out that her mother - Ida has left him. Stella funds all of her money to Peter, and leaves, to become a barista. As the job turns out to be a failure, Stella alternatively goes to her godmother - Poppy's to pay some invested money.

Wes and Stella have a fight about having children together, as lies keep unfolding. One of those lies being that Wes doesn't like having candle sex every night (and likes having rough, hardcore sex, and wants to be spanked) and doesn't things to stay the exact same now that Stella is cured. At Dr. Chang's party, Stella writes a terrible speech, boring the audience to revealing their truths on Stella's cancer.
