"I'll soon be dead. You could still live by his side happily." Jasper Milton said coldly while locking Stella Grace in his gaze. She still refused to look at him. "Without this divorce settlement, I'm still considered as you wife after your death. I don't want to bear this title, Jasper." "Indeed, it would be stupid of me to continue staying with a person who hated me to the core," Jasper took the agreement and the pen from Stella's hand. Stella saw him signing his name neatly in the agreement. His handwriting was beautiful, upright and smooth. Stella turned her face away and her eyes were fogging up. There was a time when she tried her best to get married. But today, she destroyed this relationship with her own hands. Jasper tossed the pen and agreement on the ground and spoke in a cold voice, "You can get lost now." "I have another piece of agreement with me. Please sign it as well." Stella handed Jasper his marital agreement with Betta
Stella Grace didn't sleep for the whole night. Her heart was throbbing in pain. She had been studying the diary that Wendy's father had given her. There were a lot of details registered in the diary. Almost every page of the book was filled. But there was no detailed information regarding the specific location of the treasure. She was under the impression that Wendy's father had already found the location of the treasure, but he didn't want to share it. Perhaps he didn't want his painstaking efforts to go to waste. Hence he gave her the diary. But since he did not give her any specific details, she could only try her luck. Stella studied the diary until nine o'clock in the morning. Her heart was still aching badly. Perhaps it was because she hadn't been resting well these days, or it could be caused by the virus in her body. She put the diary in her bag then walked to the window. She looked outside. The sun was shining brightly outside and she could
Stella's body trembled. She turned around instinctively, but Frederick Addington held her arm and stopped her from leaving. Stella Grace suddenly felt all the pressure on her. She didn't want to face Jasper Milton, more so his family. She knew what they were going to say. She was afraid that she would have a panic attack. She was a proud person, and her pride meant everything to her. She looked at Frederick with pleading eyes. Shaking her head, she trembled and demanded, "Let me go." Instead of letting her go, Frederick held her shoulders and went inside together. There was no way for her to retreat. Her face was pale as she clenched her fists tightly. Keep it together, Stella Grace. She didn't want to be regarded as a lunatic, especially in public. She was extremely petrified. It was as if she was bracing the storm all alone with no one there to save her. The longer she stayed, the more panicked she felt. She could hard
The driver saw Stella's strange expression. "You don't have to thank me. I was just doing what I should. Where are your family members? Do you remember their numbers? Let me call them." "My family." Stella Grace chewed on these two words. Her parents were still alive, but they couldn't get in touch with each other. Her husband... was probably her ex-husband now, and she couldn't get in touch with him either. She didn't have any other family. "Thank you for your kindness. I can handle it myself, thank you very much," Stella said with a smile. "Where are you going? I'll send you there." The driver seemed uncomfortable with the idea of a lone woman wondering the wilderness. "Is it too far away from Yale City?" Stella asked. "It's only about an hour's drive. I'm going back to Yale City, I'll drive you there," said the driver. Stella nodded. "Thank you." He opened the rear door and Stella got in the car and looked out of th
Night was approaching. Stella Grace stood by the window and looked out at the stars. She had learned that people worked hard in life not because they wanted to live a carefree and peaceful life but rather because it was an obligation. They were worried that they would die before fulfilling their purpose in life. They were worried about their children. They were worried that their partner would have a difficult life once they were gone. Her parents were still alive, but her father had a family of his own, while her mother... well, at least her mother's needs would be taken care of by the sanatorium for the rest of her life. She had a child who might have died a few years ago. Even if he didn't, it might be impossible for her to look for him now. She used to have a soulmate. But, Jasper Milton now hated her to the core. She hated Frederick Addington's guts and hoped she would never see him again in this life. Now, she still had
"Jasper, I asked you to sign the contract and marry Bettany because I didn't want you to harass me anymore. I'm telling you the truth. It really wasn't easy for me to get back with Frederick. If there's still an ounce of pity left in you, please let me go," Stella Grace pleaded in a low voice. Her pitiful display broke Jasper, you could see it in his eyes. Seeing him in pain bore a hole in her heart. She knew she had a bad attitude; she was indifferent, moody, negative, and guarded. How on Earth did she get Jasper Milton to like her? She had no regrets. Even if she died now, she would die engulfed in his warmth. That was all she could ask for. From the beginning to the end, God had never been merciful to her. Her greatest act of kindness might be to let Jasper go. Jasper was really a good person, he was brave and responsible. His sense of duty and justice was impeccable. He deserved better. "I'm asking you one last questio
Stella Grace lifted her chin and locked her gaze at Jasper Milton with a cold, hard stare. It was as if she was talking about someone else, and none of this involved her. "Frederick is the source of Stella's pain. How could that be love? The same thing goes for you. You bring nothing but pain to her. Therefore, you should just stay away from her from now on," Stella sneered. Jasper narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman standing before him. "Did you make a deal with Frederick?" "Aren't you very smart? If you want to know, you can find out for yourself. But I suggest that you don't. The truth would only bring you pain," Stella said with a cold smirk. Jasper stood still and did not speak. The atmosphere suddenly cooled down. Rolland Cher cleared his throat. "Well, I'll send you off," he said to Jasper. "Don't forget to return my bag," Stella reminded. Jasper glanced at her and went out. Rolland followed behind him. "Well, may I hav
"Junior?" Jasper thought of Stella. "Well, the gist of her thesis is that many mental patients are in pain and symptoms like tantrums, smashing things, self-mutilation, hurting others, dementia, forgetfulness, and even split personality are a result of them venting. If a mental patient could forget the pain of the past, they would lose some memories but will still be able to get on with their lives. She would hypnotize her patients to make them forget the source of their pain. She has cured many serious cases. You should check her out, she's very famous in the field," Micheal Zavier recommended. "The split personality was caused by pain. If hypnosis does not work, what should I do then?" Jasper Milton asked gloomily. "My junior once cured a split personality patient through hypnosis. She found the hidden self, lurking in the shadows away from the pain. She talked to the hidden self and guided it. You can try this with her." "What's her name?" Jasper
