"What's the matter?" Natalie Wheeler had a premonition. "Let's meet first," Allen said hesitantly. Natalie sensed that his tone was very heavy, and she was a little anxious, "Since you have brought it up, you do know that I will definitely not be able to fall asleep at night if you don't say it. Just tell me." "I didn't know that my grandmother had investigated you. She found out that you went to a sanatorium to pay your respects to a person who had passed away, and she looked exactly like my grandmother's friend. You seemed very sad in front of the grave. She wanted to know the relationship between you and that dead person," Allen said in a low voice. "She is my mother, and her name is Celine Grace. She grew up in an orphanage, experienced all the sufferings of the world, and got a mental illness that couldn't be cured," Natalie did not hide anything. "Then, what about you? Could it be that you're the descendant of my grandmother's friend?" Allen asked re
"He is suffering from Thalassemia and has been sent abroad for treatment. However, the doctor said that the best method is a marrow transplant. My parents' blood is not suitable, and both Ralph's and my blood are incompatible too." "What about mine?" Natalie's eyes dimmed, "My bone marrow has been transplanted before." "Yours is not suitable either," Jasper Milton looked at her and said. Natalie Wheeler had a feeling of emptiness in her mind, and the sea breeze blew on her face, which made her feel sadder. In her life, the pain had always outweighed her happiness, and bad times had always outnumbered the good times. Nothing good ever happened to her. Could it be that she had done too many evil things in her previous life and karma had come upon her own child? A strange look flashed across Jasper's face, "If we want to save him, we'd better give birth to another child." Natalie looked up at Jasper calmly. Her eyes were too calm and e
It was already 5 p.m. when she returned to shore. It was too late for her to go to the hospital for the check-up. Because of her cold, she still felt a little dizzy. She was preparing to conceive a baby, so she didn't want to take any medication. She drank a lot of warm water and lay in bed all night. She was groggy and confused, breaking out in a cold sweat. At about 4 a.m. the next morning, she woke up and couldn't fall back asleep. She got up to cook some soup then lay back down on the bed to play Dog Town. Time flew and she had played the game for an hour. Her soup was already ready and in 'keep warm' mode. She got up and made some toast. The dog woke up as well. She fed it and squatted in front of the kennel, "Apollo, I have to go out today. You should stay at home." "Woof, woof." The dog barked twice. Natalie smiled lightly, fed it with some dog food and went back to have breakfast. It was only 6 a.m. when she was done with breakfast. She
His room was as simple as usual. There was a bed, two bedside tables, a TV, a hidden wardrobe, and a flower rack beside the window. There was a pot of orchids on the rack, which were elegant and fragrant. Jasper Milton opened the door of the bathroom, with only a bath towel around his waist. He walked out and looked at her coldly, "Do you want me to take off your clothes for you, or you want to do it yourself?" "I'll do it myself," Natalie Wheeler lowered her head, took off her coat and shirt. She was much skinnier than before. It seemed that she weighed even lesser than 45kg now. "If you keep getting skinnier, you will feel like a skeleton when I touch you," he said coldly. He wrapped his arms around her waist, turned around, pressed her against the bed, and looked at her. Natalie lowered her eyes and did not look at him. Jasper gritted her teeth, "This really isn't fun." Jasper sat on the bed. Feeling a little cold, Natalie wrapped hers
Natalie's heart sank, "What happened?" "Someone tried to kidnap your friend just now. There was a gunfight. Your friend's mother died in order to save your friend," Allen said in a low voice. "What?" Natalie's head was buzzing and her nerves were numb. She could not believe that this was happening. In a panic, she tried to confirm again, "Did you just say that Eli's mother is dead?" "I'm so sorry. I wasn't able to do what I had promised you. There were ten of them, all of whom were top-ranked mercenaries from abroad. My men killed nine of them, and one of them committed suicide," Allen explained. Natalie Wheeler was silent. Her heart could not bear the burden. How could Eli provoke these mercenaries? How did these mercenaries know where Eli was? The only explanation was that the news was spread from Sean Yaleman. Natalie hung up the phone directly, her eyes red. She then called Sean. Sean did not answer the call. She clenched
Jasper Milton stared at her, "So, you drove me away just because you were afraid that you would pull me down?" "Isn't that the truth? When I jumped into the sea, I didn't think about surviving. Eli sacrificed herself to save me, and then I eventually caused her mother's death. If I were to stay with you, things might change again. In order to help me save Eli, you would offend Sean, and he would take you on as his opponent. Sean is cruel and merciless and his means are extremely tricky. You are just a businessman now, even if you had your father to back you up, you might not be able to fight against him. And Frederick, he is a freak. If he knows that I am Stella, he may frame you again. It's not because he loves me very much, but because he just couldn't accept rejection," Natalie Wheeler analyzed and calmed down gradually. She seemed to have said something that she shouldn't have said. Her emotions were getting the better of her. She should have let Jaspe
"We'll talk about this later." Jasper Milton didn't want to promise her anything. "You've been sleeping for so long. You should be starving now since you haven't eaten anything for the whole day." It was only then that she remembered that she had missed a couple of meals. However, she didn't seem to feel hungry either. Jasper turned around and went out of the room. She looked at the white ceiling and spaced out for a while. She was wondering how Eli Wayne was doing. She took out her cell phone and called Allen. "How is Eli now?" Stella Grace asked worriedly. "She just cremated her mother, and she is still quite emotional. Sean's men are monitoring her but they haven't taken any actions." Allen said in a low voice. "Please transfer them to D Country as soon as possible. Sean has an enemy in D Country, so his influence is the weakest there. Relatively speaking, Eli will be safer when she goes there. Moreover, the person behind the scenes has alre
"I don't think that that's a good idea." Stella Grace was not ready for this. "What's wrong with it?" Jasper Milton asked while staring at her coldly. "I think it would be better if I were to be your assistant for the time being. Marriage... it's a bit too rushed." "Of course you're not in a hurry. You're still in your twenties. You still have a lot of pursuers. Besides Frederick, there's a French nobleman who is going after you. Maybe another man will appear another day." Jasper said sourly. "That's not what I meant. I will feel a little uneasy if get married and become your assistant. Why don't we wait till I am pregnant, then I will have more time to prepare for our ceremony. Plus, if I am pregnant, I will probably feel bored if I have nothing to do at home," Stella explained. "Don't worry, I won't let anyone know that you are married to me," Jasper said in a low voice, and his eyes became colder. "Or, are you having second thoughts about marrying me?"
