There was a sentence on the note: 'It's easy to hide in a place that is often ignored'. On the opposite side of the note was a series of numbers. It looked very strange. Perhaps because of her curiosity, Stella decided to look into it. She had nothing to do anyway. She took a look at the bookshelves and noticed that there were numbers on them. She first found the book according to the numbers. She then turned to the specific page and continued to search for a number on that page. After finding all the numbers, she found that they made up 258614. What did this number mean? Was it the password of a bank account? Besides, 'It's easy to hide in a place that is often ignored'. What did that mean? What was he trying to hide? Stella Grace looked around and realized that the layout of this basement was very simple. There were bookshelves, books, and desks with drawers. She opened the drawer. There was nothing in it. The desk lamp was normal
He held her hand tightly and looked at her with confusion. Stella smiled. "It's the weekend today. I'll go over at about 2 p.m.," Jasper said through the phone. "Dad, I moved to a new house. You know where I live, right?" Ralph asked worriedly. "I know," Jasper hung up the phone, "I'm sorry," he said to Stella. "It's okay. You don't need to apologize to me. You never thought that Ralph would appear in this world. Just like the people who have cancers and tumors. Just because they did not want it doesn't mean that it would not happen. Since it has already happened, you should face it bravely. Anyway, Ralph is your son. You should take the responsibility as his father," Stella said indifferently. "I'm afraid that you'll feel aggrieved," Jasper said worriedly. "People will only feel aggrieved if they did something in hopes for something in return. For Ralph, I only do my duty as his stepmother. I don't expect him to repay me," Stella said with a s
Jasper Milton drove back and saw Ralph Milton rushing out of the security room. He was wearing thin clothes, so he was shivering. His eyes turned cold. Bettany Hadley really didn't care about him at all. He opened the car door and said in a low voice, "Get into the car." "Dad, I don't want to go. There is an old witch at your home. She is cruel and merciless. She wants to kill me," Ralph complained. Jasper's eyes became colder. He threw Ralph into the car and didn't go into the manor. He drove to the side and turned on the heater, "Who is the old witch that you are talking about?" Ralph saw that his father was angry. He hesitated, thought for a moment, and said, "She kidnapped me and forced my mother to leave you." "How did you know?" Jasper asked directly. "My mother told me," Ralph said confidently. Jasper made a call in front of Ralph. After three seconds, Bettany answered. He turned on the speaker. "Did you tel
Stella Grace was reading a book. There were a lamp and a pot of tea on the desk. Her shadow was cast onto the bookcase and he felt warm looking at her. His eyes softened a little subconsciously. He raised the corner of his mouth and called, "Natalie." Stella looked at him and saw Ralph. Ralph pursed his lips tightly and looked at her awkwardly. His eyes were flickering and his hands were twisted uneasily. Stella smiled and said, "You're back." "Are you going to talk to him?" Jasper Milton asked. Stella nodded and said, "Sure, I'll call you later." "Okay," Jasper turned around and went out. "Dad," Ralph shouted, but Jasper ignored him. He took a deep breath and looked at Stella. When he realized that Stella was also looking at him, he took a step back subconsciously. Stella didn't say a word and continued to read her book. She flipped through the pages, one after another. Time seemed to stop. He stood while she read. Ten minute
Stella Grace was still reading a book. After an hour, she felt a little tired. She came out of the basement and did a stretch. She saw Elvis Zachary in the kitchen, "Why are you here? Where is Auntie Wood?" "Auntie Wood was fired by the Chief. He asked me to take over the meal preparation for the time being. He should be able to get someone whom he could trust to come over tomorrow," Elvis said respectfully. "Fired?" Stella nodded. She roughly knew the reason, "Let me do it. I know what Jasper likes to eat." "No, you are pregnant now. You have to rest more," Elvis did not dare to let Stella do it. Stella picked up the vegetables and began to wash them, "A pregnant woman also needs to exercise to ensure a smooth delivery later. I used to be a gynecologist, so I know what I should do. Don't worry, your chief won't blame you." "I'll help you then. Call me if you need help," Elvis did not dare to leave. Stella cooked skillfully. She made a bowl of salad
After the meal, the two of them washed the dishes. Then, they took a shower and lay on the bed hand in hand. "You must be tired after a long day, right?" Jasper Milton said softly. Stella Grace chuckled. She then turned around and faced him, "No, I'm not tired. On the contrary, I feel pretty relaxed and in a good mood." "Huh?" Jasper glanced at her in confusion. "The matter of Ralph had to be solved eventually. Now, it's finally solved. Auntie Wood told you that I drove Ralph away and you fired her immediately. I feel... extremely relieved. Although she came back in the end, it still showed that we are all filial. So, everything that happened today is good." Jasper was worried that she would feel aggrieved, but after listening to her enlightenment, he was cheered up as well. He turned around and put his hand on her waist, "Stella, I'm so happy now that I could live with you and experience all the trifles in life together." "Me too. I enjoy the life t
Stella Grace remained quiet. "Listen to me, Stella," Jasper Milton said in a low voice. "What happened? Do you know something?" Stella asked worriedly. Jasper shook his head, "I don't know. Whatever happens, don't come out." Jasper came out of the tent and walked toward the road. Five cars stopped in front of him. A group of men emerged. They were all dressed in a suit with a brooch pinned to their chest. As it was too far away, she couldn't see them clearly nor could she hear what they were talking about. Thus, she was quite anxious. They showed some documents and Jasper got into their car. After that, the car left immediately. She thought for a while and gave Anthony Levis a call. "Anthony, it's Stella. Just now, a group of people took Jasper away. Do you know who they are?" Stella asked anxiously. "A group of people? What do you mean?" Anthony was nervous. "Do you not know?" Stella was even more shocked. "I don'
"So, are you saying that you're willing to help me rescue Jasper?" Stella Grace asked. "There are at least a thousand people guarding him right now. He's being held at the base. Now, the only person who could save Jasper is Bettany. I could arrange for you to meet with Bettany, but the result will depend on your negotiation. Both Christian and Zoahs want to get rid of Jasper. Therefore, they would not give him too much visiting time," Sean Yaleman said in a low voice. Stella felt that her face was wet and she realized that she was crying, "When will you arrange it?" "I'll send someone to pick you up later," Sean said. He then hung up the phone. She sat in the tent with her mobile phone. Just a few minutes ago, Jasper was right there and she still felt that she was the happiest person on earth. In the blink of an eye, she had become the most unfortunate person. If Jasper were to die... She put her hand on her abdomen. If he was dead, her life would be
The bullet pierced through his chest, and blood dyed Joseph's silver coat red immediately. "Joseph!" Waverly's eyes were bloodshot, and her roaring voice was choked. He looked at her, and wanted to smile, but he didn't have the energy to do so. He fell a few steps back, and leaned against the window. The sea breeze tousled his hair into a mess. "Let go of me!" Waverly struggled, but they were too strong and she couldn't escape. "Push him down, and make sure he dies," said the person who was holding Waverly captive. "No!" Waverly yelled, but her efforts were futile. They walked up to Joseph and pushed him down the window ruthlessly. She screamed, "Joseph Mccarthy!" The person who was grabbing Waverly released her all of a sudden, and she rushed to the window as fast as lightning. Then, she jumped into the sea without hesitation. Joseph had been shot, and his blood diffused into the sea rapidly. Waverly dived into the red pool of blo
Boris asked, "What's the solution?" Breddy answered, "We'll have to make her take the initiative to face it." Boris sighed, "That's easier said than done." Shaking his head, Breddy replied, "It's not too hard. You said it yourself that she's a kind person. She would even help a complete stranger, so what makes you think she won't save a person that's extremely important to her?" Boris was stunned. Breddy continued, "If this person was heavily injured for her, she would realize that there's someone in this world who still loves her, and she'll naturally want to stay in this world for a little longer. By then, she'll be willing to open up her heart." Boris took a pause, and said, "But who is this person?" To the Waverly Martell of the past, Bellamy was everything to her. However, at present, he was nothing. She cared about everyone, but she refused to let others care about her. It seemed as if she had already merged into the world, but th
Waverly frowned and looked at Breddy's left hand. She saw as he put the coin in his left hand, "What if I want you to jump off the top floor?" "Then I'll jump right down." Breddy said affirmatively. He raised his smile and looked incredibly confident. His character was like the calm deep blue sea, vast and far-reaching, which made her feel at ease. Waverly's eyes once again fell on his left hand. "Believe in what you've seen. Things aren't as complicated as they seem. It's just that simple," Breddy reminded her. Waverly pointed at his left hand. As expected, the coin was in the palm of his hand when he opened it. "You won. What do you want me to do?" asked Breddy. Waverly looked coldly at the man in front of her. She would even save a stranger whom she didn't know, so how could she ask Breddy, who was treating her, to seek death? She had no idea why, but judging by his self-confidence, he seemed like he was playing house with
Waverly hesitated. "Just talk to the psychiatrist. Perhaps he would give you new ideas and inspirations. Didn't we agree that will be better for our future?" Boris encouraged her. "We are leaving tomorrow. We might not have time. Thank you for your kindness," Waverly said. "I have made an appointment at ten o'clock in the evening in the hotel. He will come to the hotel," Boris said. "Y-you have arranged an appointment for me today?" Waverly had an unspeakable strange feeling in her heart. Even after knowing the death of his girlfriend, Boris could still call a psychiatrist for her. Did he do so out of friendship, generosity or because he pitied her? "My girlfriend said that she wanted me to do my best to help others on her behalf," Boris said with a smile. "The heavens must have summoned her back to be an angel," Waverly comforted Boris. "I think so too." It was night. Waverly ate a little, took a shower, stayed in the r
Cadwell looked at the files in his hand. They were very thick. He flipped through them briefly. There were twelve pages in it. The files talked about a lot about the nation's history, analyzing the cause, the process, and the result of those incidents. It also explained a few things regarding Queen Danina and Prince Caesar. It analyzed their personalities and gave a prediction on what the future would be like. The analysis was flawless. Every word was written in perfect unison. He could prepare himself in times of danger, so he could exert the right amount of pressure when needed. Furthermore, she had given him two plans, one of which was to work with her and expand his diplomatic power in M Country. She represented the Mccarthy family and also the highest level of weapons. Of course, if he did not feel that such a cooperation was necessary, they would still maintain a good relationship. After all, there was no hatred between him and the Mccarthy family. He woul
"I was wrong. I've realized deeply that I was in the wrong. I should bad-mouth you rather than Madam. Mr. Mccarthy, I should offend you rather than offend Madam," Yadriel lowered his head and said in a low tone. Joseph stood up and walked up to him, "You feel wronged?" "I feel wronged on your behalf." Yadriel's eyes were red as he said, "Mr. Mccarthy, I know very well that even though you've treated her so well, she has never treated you fairly. As soon as Bellamy went to find her, she threw everything away. She didn't even want the title of Peace Lady and was willing to follow Bellamy again. Does she know how much effort, energy and time you've spent in order to earn the title of Peace Lady for her?" "She likes Bellamy, so naturally she doesn't need to think about what's fair or not with him," Joseph said clearly. "If so, why are you treating her so well?" Yadriel didn't understand Joseph's actions. "You're my best friend," Joseph said with sadness in his
Waverly sat down on the sofa, "How's your relationship with Madam Lenny?" "Oh, Madam Lenny has an excellent relationship with Queen Danina. In the past, I even had a meal with Queen Danina with her help," Thomas said. "Do you know why the relationship between her and Queen Danina is so good?" Waverly asked. "I can only say that Madam Lenny has brilliant judgement. In addition to that, she's quite capable. When Queen Danina wasn't a queen yet, they were already close friends." "Perhaps Madam Lenny invested quite a bit of effort in making Queen Danina the queen. Thus, their friendship is incredibly firm and unshakable. At the moment, Prince Caesar is one of the most popular heirs to the throne. Once he becomes king, perhaps Madam Lenny's status will become even more unwavering." "Besides that, according to what I know, Madam Lenny has a strong relationship with many other countries. If those strong countries join forces, then there's no way to break through
"When my friend sent me the video, I asked him to delete it immediately. I came here with a lot of sincerity. Since you've said so, I suppose we don't have to talk about the agreement anymore. I will leave Mexiland in a moment. I'd better not interfere with your business, lest I offend both parties," Waverly said coldly. "Who is your friend? If you don't tell me, I can only treat you as one of them. If you want to leave Mexiland, it won't be that easy," Thomas warned. "Joseph. It was Joseph who gave me the video," Waverly said and hung up. The phone rang with another call from Thomas. Waverly answered and her tone was impatient as she said, "Is there anything else?" "Why did Joseph do that? I don't have anything against him," Thomas didn't understand. "What he wants must be done. If you don't understand him, you can ask your friends about him. I have already told him not to do this, but you insisted on beating around the bush. According to my underst
Agnes smiled, "Okay." "Go rest," Waverly said and slowly closed the door. She stood by the window and looked at the traffic downstairs. Truth be told, she was quite far away and the road was so dark that she couldn't see much with her naked eyes. At most, she could feel the cars rushing by with their bright lights switched on. She wondered where the people in the cars were rushing to. Were they going home or going out to have fun? Did they have desires in their hearts or were they lost in pretense and living like a walking corpse, interacting with people every day? At the moment, she had no other choice but to march forward bravely. She didn't want to go back. She picked up her phone and blocked Bellamy's phone number with a cold and emotionless gaze. It was as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart and she felt much more relaxed. She threw her phone on the bed and went to the bathroom to take a bath. After bathing, she laid on t
