"Stella's point of view,"

Is this a dream or what?

How could this arrogant man change in one night? I think his actions are suspicious. After all, it begs the question of how the great Ethan Woods could so easily concede defeat.

In the NFS Most Wanted game, I've beaten him twice, and to my astonishment, he's grinning. Yet I don't understand why he gives in so easily to my request to buy shares of my company.

And the reasons for his rage at Mr. Chang's derogatory remarks about me.

"Stella, should we continue to play?" He loses the game once more.

"No, I am now exhausted."

My business's financial situation has me worried, so I finally got around to activating my account after a long hiatus.

"Okay, well played, the cold devil." He offered his hand to me in a handshake.

"Oh, Mr. Woods, you impress me. You should learn to appreciate your fellow competitors."

"Yes, and you deserve the credit."

Why is he not offended by anything I say? Instead, he beams at everything I say.

    "Ethan's point of view,"What does she think of herself as? Now, I have no desire to communicate with her. Though I made an effort to get to know her and become close to her, she showed no signs of feeling any way toward me.Even though I had earlier warned you against friendship with Stella Parker, you were unwilling to take my advice. My masculine ego mocked me.What's the issue with her residing in the same home as me? She rejecting all of my decisions is not at all to my liking.Since I am her husband, she unquestionably supports all of my decisions.Oh, do you truly believe that she must concur with every one of your terms? Once more, my powerful subconscious sought to annoy me.Why is she so obstinate?Because you admire her fiery style, you can not criticize her temperament. Humm.

    "Stella's point of view,""Are you angry with me, Ethan?" After finding out about my expertise in finance, he acted pretty strangely. I could still keep this information about myself a secret from him, but I don't think it would be fair to do so now that we are friends and he has an appropriate curiosity about knowing such fundamental information."Stella, I'm not furious at you, but I'm still perplexed by your honesty. You are an important player in the stock market, so why did you decide to keep quiet that evening?"Oh, so learning about my other career crushed his pride; that's good for him."Ethan, sometimes being quiet at a particular time, can shatter a man's ego. If I respond to you by telling you who I am, you won't likely recognize your error and will continue to treat me like the icy and obstinate CEO of the wood industry.""If you believe that the mere knowledge of your abilities will cause me to alter and treat you differently, let me assure you that I will not act in the

    "Ethan's point of view,""Mrs. Wood's, are you ready to go?" I turned my face to look at her beautiful face. She left me with no other option, even though I knew I was acting like a ruthless CEO. She vehemently rejected my offer to serve as my company's financial counselor, despite my requests. She has no right to refuse me; how could she turn down my offer? I'm Ethan Woods. Nobody dares to refuse me. How can a woman turn down my offer when top degree holders are desperate to work in wood construction? My male ego overtook me. Why are you acting like a spoiled brat, Ethan? She can't drive a car since she broke her leg. It seems like she goes against all of your expectations. My subconscious attempted to reconsider my choice. Shut up; no one can say no to me. I shut off my subconscious. If she wins the car race, what would you do? Not! With her broken leg, she will never risk driving the car. She will give up in light of my condition. I dropped the idea of joining her in a car ra

    "Stella's point of view,""What the hell are you doing? You have no right to kiss me without my consent." Until he was satisfied, he maintained a firm hold on my lips. "I have already informed you that I do not need your permission to do anything with you, my dear wife." With a triumphant grin on his face, he shrugged his shoulders and turned the key to start the car. I was tempted to punch him forcefully at the sight of his toothy grin, but something within me restrained me. His actions baffled me at times. He changed from being a genuinely lovely person to an arrogant Ethan Woods in an instant. Even though my broken leg is hurting me badly, I'm glad I won his foolish car racing challenge and am no longer required to work for him as a financial director. Initially, I thought he was kidding when he asked that I join a car race, but as he persisted like a child, I realized how self-centered he is and how willing he is to get what he wants. I didn't want to reveal my weak side to h

    "Ethan's point of view,""Mr. Woods, is everything alright?" When I entered the doctor's room, he questioned me. "Yes, I am a perfectly fit and fine doctor, but my wife has a fractured leg." I checked the room door for Stella. "Where is your wife?" He gave me a bewildered expression. Ah, I completely overlooked the fact that she walked at a turtle's pace after fracturing her leg.Shut up; you are to blame for her condition, and your persistence creates swelling in her leg. Oh my goodness, do you honestly believe that my actions caused her to suffer? Of course, you coerced her into going to a car race with you. The fact that she has already won doesn't stop you from insisting on what you want. Oh, please stop talking; I don't want to hear your stupidity. "Let me take my wife to you, doctor. I believe she forgot the way to your chamber." I walked out of his room to find her. I don't understand why this woman has a knack for testing my patience. I searched the hospital hallway, b

    "Stella's point of view,""Ouch...," "What happened?" I glanced in his direction. The sight of the legendary Ethan Woods hobbling makes me chuckle uncontrollably. He kicked the car door fiercely, and now he's jumping around in pain. See, I told you this man never misses an opportunity to compete with you. Angry with his dominance, my subconscious taunted him. How could he do this to me? He doesn't have any right to forcibly make me stay with him. I have an urgent business to attend to, but this man and his stubbornness are too much for me to bear. I have no idea how Avery deals with my avaricious Lily aunt. The news of my marriage to Ethan Woods made Lily Pinto reveal her ugly side. At this point, she has not spared any chance to exact her wrath on me. She had no idea that my marriage to Ethan Woods was merely a legally binding contract; she just assumed it was a regular marriage. However, it's fortunate for me that she is unaware of my contractual marriage. If she discovers th

    "Ethan's point of view,""Stella, with whom were you chatting?" I cast a suspicious glance at her phone's screen. "That's none of your business, Ethan. Why don't you let me live in peace?" She gave me a furious look. Why can't she just be nice and answer my questions? What's the big deal? It's all your fault. Why did you bring her food? Why do you care for her? It seems like I've let my masculine ego down. It's okay if you develop feelings for her. No way; I'll never feel anything for a lady other than hatred. I simply gave her food because she was here as I made my subconscious misunderstanding clear. Oh really? Why did you force her to stay with you? Who the hell are you to inquire about me? I'm Ethan Woods, and I'm not required to respond to inquiries from anyone—not even from my subconscious. Oh, you're not willing to face reality. No, it's not the reality; you are talking nonsense, so please shut up. "Please leave my room, Ethan. I need to rest since I'm so exhausted."

    "Stella's point of view,"He runs a multi-billionaire firm and conducts himself with an air of superiority and arrogance, yet here he is, sleeping like a five-year-old next to me. For some reason, I felt compelled to run my fingers through his hair. His expression was one of tranquility. "Why are you so stubborn, Ethan Woods?" His naive face brought a grin to my face. Did I just call him innocent? No, no, that can not be possible. My subconscious mistakenly believed he was innocent due to a mental glitch. Stella, you know full well that I'm doing fine; the problem is that you refuse to face the reality that you have feelings for him. So, please, stop further arguing. My subconscious counterattacked against me. No, I do not like him. For me, he is a monster who broke my leg, wrecked my life, and destroyed my business. So you're blaming him now for your failings and obstinacy. You alone are responsible for where you are right now and the circumstances you find yourself in—not hi

    Ethan~"Thank you, Avery." Steve smiled broadly at the sight of Stella's assistance. "My pleasure, Steve." Avery's face also blushed. What's going on between them? I was surprised to find them. "I hope getting there isn't too tough for you, Mr. Woods." Avery questioned me. "Not at all; with your help, we had no trouble getting here." Before I could respond, Steve answered her question. What the hell? How is it possible for my assistant's love story to be resolved more easily than mine? Stella didn't want to talk to me and locked herself in the room, and here my assistant flirted with her assistant. "Steve, please bring me some coffee; I'm starving." I felt a slight wave of jealousy as I watched him happily conversing with Avery. Why won't Stella speak to me with such affection? Because you always irritated her by showing your anger. Without asking, my subconscious gave me the answer. Avery followed Steve into the kitchen to help him get coffee for me. Why did Stella lock her

    Stella~"Stella, you didn't do good by insulting Mr. Woods." Once I finished my office work and sat in my car to return home, Avery complained to me. "Avery, please don't begin now; I am already upset with what he did in the conference hall. I mean, how could he do this?" I tighten my grip on the steering wheel in anger. "Stella, you are overreacting; he did nothing wrong; he was clearing his doubts." Avery and I argued for Ethan Woods. "Really? Oh, my God! You said that The Great Ethan Woods did nothing wrong when he offered me to work for his company for my desired salary." I gave her a furious glance. "That's precisely why I'm curious why he gave you money to work for his business when, as his wife, you are obligated to do so for free." Her remarks only heighten my ire. "First of all, Avery, we are not real husband and wife; we are just contracted married. Second, if you think he owned me because of our relationship, then you are also my friend, so you too don't have to take m

    "Ethan POV,""Why are you staring at me?" My face heated up when I saw her staring at me. "Nothing. You look cute when you blush." She made fun of me. This woman dares to make me feel nervous. I scratched my neck and stared at the ground. Knowing he wasn't her boyfriend brought me a sense of relief. But why did she return to California without even saying goodbye to me? Her assistant entered the office with two coffee mugs. "Welcome to California, Mr. Woods. You did a great job coming here, as Stella missed you so much last night that she couldn't sleep." Placing the coffee mug down on the table, she turned to face Stella. "Is she telling the truth?" I looked at Stella in surprise. "No, she is telling a lie; I didn't miss you." She refused to accept what Avery said to me, but her expression revealed something else. Her hazel eyes did not meet mine; her cheeks flushed. My subconscious is urging me to interpret the deep, buried emotions in her eyes, but my ego is telling me to be

    Stella~"Et... Ethan... w... what are you doing here?" When I saw him standing in my office, my speech trailed off. "Who is he?" He ignored my question and cast an angry look at David. I'm at a loss for words. What should I tell him?In my absence from California, David and his mom created countless problems for my business, constantly pressuring Avery to ask me to return. I never thought my crafty aunt would team up with Mr. Chang to harm me. At first, she used her fake affection to lure me into marrying her son, but when I refused, she switched tactics. She physically attacked me just before my wedding. If Avery hadn't helped me escape through the backyard gate, things could've been much worse. Poor Avery, she even broke her leg, saving me from Aunt Lily.I thought marrying Ethan would end Aunt Lily's interference, but she keeps finding ways to meddle. Today, she sent David to try to negotiate a deal-she wants a 50% share in my company in exchange for keeping my past life secrets

    Ethan~"Open the door, Stella." I knocked on my room's door, but she didn't respond. Huh, what's wrong with her? I tried to be civil by asking her permission before entering, but what does she think of herself? She's not Queen Victoria, from whom I should request entry into my bedroom. My male ego forced my hand onto the doorknob.Are you planning to confess your feelings to her in this manner? You've already realized how you feel, so don't let your ego control you now. Otherwise, your love confession will feel more like an invitation to war, my subconscious advised, trying to calm the fury rising inside me.I loosened my grip on the knob and padded softly into the room. "Where are you, Stella?" Anxiety crept in as I found the room empty. I searched the bathroom-nothing. Where could she have gone at this late hour?My heart started pounding. I had put so much effort into preparing to confess my feelings to her, but it all seemed futile now. She's gone. It took me a long time to und

    Stella~"Stella, how are you feeling now?" Seeing concern in his eyes, I rubbed my own in disbelief. What happened to this monster overnight? How could someone go from being a monster to a nice guy in a single night?"I'm feeling tired," I finally replied. I could feel the heat of his palm beneath my cheek. Oh, he waited for me to wake up the entire night while sitting here. I felt as though I had entered a different universe.Shut up and stop being dramatic, my subconscious scolded. I already told you he's not as bad as you think."Get up quickly so we can go to the doctor for a checkup," he said, assisting me as I got off the bed. After my parents' deaths, I hadn't experienced this much concern from anyone, so seeing his genuine worry made my eyes moisten. I quickly wiped my tears, not wanting him to make fun of me for crying."Stella, how are you feeling right now?" His grandparents entered with worried expressions."Grandma, she's all right. You don't need to worry about her." E

They have their eyes on us," I said softly in her ear."Who's watching us closely?" she questioned, staring directly into my eyes."My grandparents." I pointed towards the shadows that had appeared in our chamber."Get away from me, Ethan. Your heavy body is choking me." She tried to shove me away once more."No, I can't." I felt a wild impulse to kiss her pulpy lips. As soon as I met her hazel eyes, I lost all sense of reality. I don't know how my hands were able to grasp hers firmly or how my lips could latch onto hers. I kissed her and felt a peculiar calmness. It had been a while since I saw my grandmother this happy. I hoped to grant her wish. I wanted to clarify grandma's confusion, but my grandparents were so happy about her pregnancy news that I couldn't bring myself to ruin their joy. As I licked her soft lips, my hand inadvertently moved to her s

    Stella POV "Stella, how are you doing?" His grandmother was rapping on the bathroom door. I washed my face with cold water and then dried it with a towel. I looked in the mirror and saw myself. My eyes were red, and I looked pale. It was all because of the sight of mutton on the table. I completely neglected to mention that the sight of the mutton on the dinner table made me sick to my stomach. Since it's impolite to get up from the table before dinner has even begun, I did my best to contain my nausea. However, I had to bolt for the bathroom when I saw the red meat in front of me. What will they think of me now? I must apologize to them for my impolite behavior.With hesitation, I opened the bathroom door. I apologized for ruining the dinner, bowing my head in embarrassment."Stella, I'm grateful that you granted my wish." His grandmother gave me a joyful hug before I could say anything further. I became perplexed when I saw her joy. In my quest to understand her enthusiasm, I gla

    "Ethan's POV""When did you arrive here?" She turned to face me, her stuttering making it clear she wasn't expecting me to enter her room. She hadn't noticed me standing in front of her door because she was too preoccupied talking to herself in the mirror. Seeing her stunning beauty, I started having hiccups once more. She looked even more breathtaking in this outfit than in the afternoon. Perhaps her messy hairstyle and minimal makeup contributed to her overall beauty. Why did her outfit make her appear so tall? My masculine ego was dismayed to see her standing before me, staring directly into my eyes. However, I'm relieved her boyfriend can't contact her right now. She must be upset with her partner for not getting back to her in the morning. That's why she claimed not to love him."Shall we proceed?" She gently waved her hand to break my train of thought. Stopping her from receiving calls from her boyfriend satisfies my ego. She will now be with me all the time.You violated y
