So I know I said I was not gonna add any more chapters until I had 10 written reviews but the latest episode made me change my mind. I mean really??? Ella gives me the creeps! I just hope she's gone soon. And I'm mad at TPTB for what they are doing to Mac's character. It's nice to feel badly for someone who clearly needs help but he's going too far. No intelligent person would do what he's doing.
Ok, rant done now.

--Flashback, several years previous--
She could not envy Peyton. She refused to. Envying Peyton would eventually lead to jealousy. The end of that path would be resenting Mac. She could never do that. Of course Stella wished she were in Peyton's position. But if Peyton was what Mac wanted who was Stella to interfere? She wanted Mac to be happy. It would have been nice if he had chosen her but apparently this was a case where they did not share a thought process. So she determined to be happy for him. And not to envy Peyton. And it worked. Most of the time.
