"There would be three rooms downstairs too. A kitchen, a firewood room, and a dining room. Then, I would build a two-meter-high wall and a well outside. Our children could play in the yard every day. We could also take them to the beach every day and live a free and unfettered life." Jasper Milton said thoughtfully. She listened to him talk. His voice was deep, pleasant, much like the sound of a cello. An image flashed through her mind: A house facing the sea and spring flowers blossoming around. Stella Grace moved a stone to his side so that she could sit down beside him. She held Jasper's arm and leaned her head on his shoulder. "You know, we still have our own responsibilities. Your parents, your army, your promise, my parents, my promise, and my wish. However, as long as we are alive, there will still be hope. I promise that when we finish what we have to do, if you still want to come to this island, I will accompany you." Jasper look
Stella Grace stood up in shock, and the rope in her hands fell to the ground. She asked in surprise, "Why are you here?" "I'll take you and leave this place first. We can talk about it on the boat," Frederick Addington said as he entered. Stella stood still, her eyebrows furrowed and breathing unsteady. Leave? What about Jasper? Should she tell Frederick that Jasper was also here? No, Frederick would not bring Jasper along, he might even kill Jasper here. She couldn't tell him about Jasper being on the island too. If she refused to leave, Frederick would definitely suspect her. He would not leave and when Jasper comes back, they would meet each other. "Wait for me outside. I'll pack up and leave," Stella said. Frederick looked around at this simple small house, from the bamboo board to the firewood in the corner, and the pork legs on the ground. Every time he saw something, his eyes became colder. He narrowed his eyes and glanced at
"I have no evidence. Ah yes, have you had your meal yet? Do you have a kitchen on this boat? I'll cook for you," Stella Grace quickly changed the topic. Now she just wanted to get to the shore safely, and then find a chance to let Suzi Shine know where Jasper Milton was. "Not yet, come with me." Frederick Addington turned around, took two steps, and stopped. Stella stopped instinctively and made sure to keep a safe distance from him. Frederick squinted at Stella with a cold look in his eyes. He ordered, "Come closer." Stella frowned slightly and took two small steps forward. Frederick took a big step toward her, put his arm around her waist, and pulled her to his side. "Why are you acting so strangely?" She looked up at him. Three years had passed, but there was no trace of aging on Frederick's face. Just by looking at his appearance, he was still handsome, and his coy eyes were full of charm, which was unparalleled. She still remembered
"Stella, if you dare to jump, I swear to you that I will make Celine Grace, Eli Wayne, and everyone whom you care about die with you," Frederick Addington warned. Stella Grace smiled as tears flowed out of her eyes. "The people I care about... includes you." Frederick was stunned as if his soul was hit by something fiercely and aggressively. He stood in a daze. Stella jumped off the boat without hesitation. Her whole body hit the surface of the sea. It hurt. However, it didn't hurt nearly as much as her heart, so it didn't matter. She watched herself slowly descend into the deep sea. It was so quiet that she could hear the sound of gurgling in her ears. The seawater was very blue as if it could wash away all the filth in people's bodies. Finally, finally, she died. If she had known that she would live such a painful life for the past three years, she wouldn't have bothered living on. It was a pity that she had dragged Jasper down wi
As soon as Frederick's words fell, Jasper Milton threw a punch at him. It was as fast as lightning. Frederick Addington stumbled a few steps back and wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth with his thumb. He sneered and retaliated with an equally quick punch. He had long wanted to hit Jasper. Jasper had already come in between them when Stella was still Frederick's. She cheated on him and Frederick had endured it for a long time. Jasper turned sideways and dodged Frederick's fist. He grabbed his arm and pushed him away with all his strength. Frederick suddenly realized Jasper's motive, so he held back his fist. At the same time, he rushed over to Jasper and kicked behind him. Jasper stepped back to avoid Frederick's foot and loosened his grip on him. Frederick swung at Jasper again, who then loosened his arms and punched back towards Frederick's head. Frederick ducked and dodged the blow. As his elbow hit Jasper, Jasper managed to land a ki
"What?" Frederick Addington took his mobile phone and walked to the side. He lowered his voice and said, "Did you just say that Stella is missing? How did that happen?" "I don't know. I just went to Miss Grace's room and saw no one on the bed," Loomis Harper said with fear. "Did she wake up? Search everywhere in the villa. She shouldn't have gone far." Frederick said anxiously. "Every corner of the villa has been searched, and the surveillance video has been checked. No one came out of Miss Grace's room." Loomis reported. Frederick suddenly understood. He took out his cell phone, strode toward Jasper, and pulled Jasper's collar. Jasper Milton pushed him away and snapped, "Get out of my way." "Jasper, are you crazy? Without me, Stella can't live for more than a month. How dare you instruct your men to kidnap her?" Frederick suddenly became angry. Jasper frowned. "What do you mean? Was Stella kidnapped?" Frederick saw his reaction and felt
He asked the farmer why his and Stella's child was with him to begin with. The farmer told him six years ago, a man gave the child to him and asked him to raise him. The farmer was given 3000 dollars a month as compensation. After that, the man asked him to send the child to a man named Jasper Milton. Apart from that, he knew nothing else. Jasper asked if he could describe the man's appearance. The farmer shook his head and said nothing. He didn't know if it was because the farmer didn't know the man's appearance, or if he was not sure of it. He'd investigated the farmer's background as well as the people from the same village. There was nothing abnormal about them. This farmer was honest and lived in a remote village. No one knew where the child came from, and they had never seen the man mentioned by the farmer. Jasper was curious as to why the child was brought back at this time. Was it because the person did not want to see Jasper give up on himse
Jasper Milton nodded, looking quite satisfied. He looked at the girl in the middle. The girl in the middle smiled and said, "I used to be a language teacher in primary school, and I've taught students from grades one to four, so I have a deeper understanding of the education plan implemented in primary schools. I'm sure I'll be able to teach the young masters well." Jasper also nodded and looked at the last woman. At first glance, she was very beautiful, and there was no flaw in her delicate facial features. Her skin was fair, especially her big eyes, which were unusually calm inside, like a spring. She was not as impetuous as the beautiful girls in modern times. The only thing that didn't suit the modern aesthetic standards was her figure, which was slightly chubby and round. "Hello, Mr. Milton. My name is Natalie Wheeler. I'm 28 years old and have been working in an orphanage in C City. I think that your children don't lack education. They are educated,
