He paused for five seconds and said, "It seems that we don't have any vegetables for dinner. Our diet is not balanced." "Don't we have mushrooms and chestnuts? We could go to the forest to find some wild vegetables tomorrow morning. Then, we could have salad and pork pies for lunch tomorrow," Stella Grace looked at the mushrooms that she had just washed. Jasper Milton nodded and said, "You should cook the pettitoes then." He continued peeling the chestnuts. Why did she think he was so cute? She put the pettitoes in the water to remove the blood and other gunk. The fire was raging, all she had to do was add wood from time to time. After having covered the lid, she peeled off the skin of the chestnuts, exposing the yellow flesh. "Aren't you cooking the pettitoes?" Jasper's voice came from behind her. Stella giggled. She understood what Jasper meant. She looked back at him and said, "Well, Mr. Milton, am I that unreliable? This is just a piece of
Jasper Milton put his arms around her shoulders and looked up at the moon. He said softly, "It's our home." The next morning, she woke up naturally at 9 a.m. She looked towards her side and found that Jasper was not around. Stella Grace got up and shouted, "Jasper." "Yes," Jasper came in. Stella saw that he was there as soon as she called him. She felt warm and she smiled, "I think I've overslept." "It's okay. I've prepared breakfast. Let's eat. Oh yes, what else do you want to bring here? Write it down for me later. I'll ask them to bring it over," Jasper said as he prepared clothes for Stella. "I'll write it now. I was too tired yesterday, so I didn't write it," Stella said apologetically. "Let's freshen up and have breakfast first. I'm not in a hurry." "Okay," Stella washed up obediently. After taking breakfast, she leaned over the table and wrote, "Dried vegetables." Jasper sent a text message. "Spices and herbs, such as black
Jasper Milton nodded. He put the cigarette out and walked toward the kitchen. Stella Grace scooped a bowl of soup for him. He drank the soup without saying a single word and he did not look at her at all. She knew he was sad and she understood his mood perfectly. She didn't say anything and just ate her meal quietly. Before they finished eating, she heard the sound of the airplane. Jasper's body stiffened. Stella held his hand and looked at him gently. Even though he had a bad relationship with his father, he was still his father. Hence, he would inevitably feel a little sad. Just like her, although Wilson Chuck had treated her so badly, she still felt a bit sad when he died. Jasper smiled at Stella, "I'm fine. Let's go." Stella nodded and said, "I'll clean up the kitchen. I've packed our luggage too. It's upstairs." "I'll get the luggage. It's cold outside, so you'd better wear more clothes," Jasper said. ...... A
"Why couldn't he come back? Isn't he back now?" Suzi Shine did not understand. "There are some things that he refuses to tell you as he didn't want you to worry. Dante's matter was not an accident, but a scheme. Apart from that, Jasper has also faced many schemes against him. He almost lost his reputation and he even almost lost his life. He was forced to leave the military and A Country in order to find peace. What he wants is not fame and fortune, but a family that is happy and safe," Stella Grace said with reddened eyes. Suzi fixed her eyes on Stella suspiciously, "What do you mean? Who wants to plot against my son? Who wants to kill him?" "It's more complicated than you could ever have imagined." "Then just tell me," Suzi raised her voice and glared at Stella. Stella hesitated and lowered her head. "Why bother telling the story if you're only going to tell me half of it? How annoying. If you refuse to say it, then I will ask him directly. I
Stella burst into tears and her eyes turned red. Jasper's eyes were also red. He decided to give in. He rubbed her head and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, let's not part ways. The first thing I want to do is to send Asher Yaleman and Christian Saltzman to the military court." "Asher? Are you talking about Sean's father?" Stella was surprised. Jasper Milton nodded, "Are you afraid?" "I'm not afraid of anything as long as you're with me," Stella said with certainty. "I'm afraid of everything as long as you're with me," Jasper said meaningfully. No matter whether they were afraid or not, they were going to be together. The atmosphere in the manor of the Milton Family was exceptionally depressing. Suzi Shine had invited a priest to come over. They didn't know much about the funeral, so they just followed the priest's arrangement. Stella thought of Master Olgic and looked at Jasper, "Do you think Master Olgic will come over if we were to
Stella Grace was quite sad as she listened to the story. She thought of Dante and her past. The scariest thing in the world was not wild beasts, but human's hearts. The massacre in Tavers Village and the extermination of this family were the real examples. Wild beasts would not hurt people when they were full, but devils would never be satisfied. Stella was a little distressed, and she asked, "Has any investigation been made on this matter? The death of 17 people is undoubtedly a serious case." "My family and my sister-in-law's family didn't want to lose their reputation. Hence, they said that my brother fell down from the mountain and died while he was making inspections. My brother won fame after his death, and the matter ended just like that. My parents and the family of my sister-in-law didn't dare to investigate. They were all afraid that the reputation of their family would be affected. I didn't expect that Steven would tell Jasper about this m
"Are you going to have a baby?" Elvis Zachary was happy for them. Stella Grace was very calm. Sean Yaleman had also said before that she was pregnant as her index was abnormal, "I think it would be better for me to go to the hospital after I have a rest." "Let's draw some blood for the test first. I'll prepare the medicine now. You should take it after food," the doctor said. He opened the medicine chest and took out a syringe, "I'll draw the blood now." Stella knew that he was just doing his job, so she did not struggle and showed her arm to the doctor. The doctor wiped her arm with an alcohol swab and drew out a tube of blood. It was not very painful. Then, he packed up the collection tube properly and handed it to Elvis, "Send this to the hospital for a test." "Okay," Elvis went immediately and the doctor left the room silently. The room became quiet all of a sudden. Stella felt so dizzy that she was about to fall asleep. All of a sudden, Ja
"Okay," Stella did not refuse. In the future, once Jasper had settled his problems, she would not have the energy and time to take care of the three children. It would be best if she had Suzi Shine to take care of her children. Jasper grew up to be such a good person, and this was all thanks to Suzi. Suzi went out after taking a look at Stella. After all, there were still many guests waiting for her outside. It was kind of her to come to see her at this time and give her the ring. Too many things had happened between them in the past. Otherwise, they probably would have had a good relationship. It was already 10 p.m. when Jasper and Suzi saw all the guests off. They still needed to stay up at night. Jasper came to see her several times. She knew that she should take good care of her body now so that others would not worry about her. Hence, she decided not to stay up that night. It was a very unusual day. She was in a daze and she woke up
