Time passed quickly when one was having fun, especially with their loved ones. In a blink of an eye, it was the following Monday. Stella and Jasper went to the airport to pick up Micheal and his wife. Their flight arrived in Seattle on time. Micheal had two pieces of luggage with him, a big backpack and a big luggage bag, while his wife pushed the stroller with the child. Stella waved at them. Micheal raised a smile, but he was stunned when he saw Jasper standing next to Stella. It had been a few years since he and Jasper had last seen each other. Jasper had left a deep impression on him back then even though he had only caught a glimpse of him. Jasper was still breathtakingly handsome. Furthermore, time had been very kind to the man. It seemed that his appearance had not changed at all. His face had not aged. Stepping forward, he greeted Jasper first, "Nice to meet you." Jasper responded coldly. "Micheal, let's get something
"When are you planning to have the wedding dinner?" Micheal asked. Stella looked at Jasper in surprise and asked, "Had we not have the wedding dinner yet?" Jasper took her hand and held it tightly before saying, "I had an accident before the wedding dinner. So, we only got the marriage certificate and didn't manage to have the wedding dinner. I am planning to hold a lavish one when we go back this time." Stella looked at him suspiciously. "What's wrong?" Jasper asked in a perplexed manner. "Our child has grown up, but we haven't had a wedding dinner yet?" "Previously, I didn't know that we had a child. Our child was taken away by someone and was fostered," Jasper explained. Stella remembered that he had once told her that their eldest son stayed with his foster parents. At that time, she still wondered why their eldest son would follow his foster parents. It turned out that he was taken away by someone. Fortunately, he had been found.
Stella's heart melted as she looked at him. She picked up Sandro because she was always fond of kids. Sandro tilted his head and looked at Stella with his huge round eyes. He resembled her and Jasper very much and he was very good-looking. "Sandro, call Mommy," Jasper said. "Mommy, pretty, Mommy, pretty," Sandro said while pinching Stella's face. Stella was happy and she nibbled on Sandro's hand. Sandro was not afraid at all. A lovely smile appeared on his face when he saw Stella kissing his hand. "Let's go inside. It's a little cold outside," Suzi said softly. "You must have had a hard time, Mom, Thank you," Stella said politely. Suzi held Stella tightly with tears in her eyes and said, "I didn't have a hard time. It's good that you are back now." Suzi's eyes were red as she turned around and wiped her tears. Stella followed them into the living room. There was another child. He was staring at her coldly with arrogant a
"Is there any humanity left in you? How could you be so heartless? He's just a child. You just said that it's enough for him to have Jasper. But will Jasper come back if you are gone? He needs his father since he doesn't have a mother. Oh right, you were able to abandon Sandro and leave at that time. You could treat your own child this way, let alone someone else's child," Suzi said impatiently. Stella stared at Suzi, who was angry and resentful of her. It was perhaps human nature. Most people would see things from their own perspectives. She didn't blame them because self-preservation was the law of nature. However, she had to look at things from her perspective. Suzi expressed dissatisfaction with her even though she had just arrived. Obviously, she cared and was feeling sorry for Ralph. In the future, Suzi would feel even more dissatisfied with her at Ralph's slightest provocation. If it were to happen over an extended period, it would only hurt t
Jasper could tell that she was still dissatisfied with Stella. His gaze grew deeper. "She must have been devastated when I left without saying goodbye and chose to die back then. After all, she had worked so hard for so long. That's why she chose to forget the past. My past self lived for the country, but now, I want to live for her. She has sacrificed too much for me," Jasper said. His tone softened when he talked about Stella. Suzi seemed touched. "We owe her a lot. Don't worry about Ralph. I'll raise him and set him right. I'll teach him how to be a decent man." "Stella considered your feelings when she left back then. She was worried that you would be too sad, so she asked someone to send Ralph to your side. She wanted you to be happy. If she makes you uncomfortable now, I hope that you could understand her circumstances then," Jasper said in a deep voice. Suzi's eyes turned red, "I just wonder how a person could be so rational to the point that she co
"She is your mother's goddaughter. Your mother doesn't have anyone else by her side. Just let her accompany your mother. Your mother will also need someone to take care of her," Stella said softly. "She had scolded you just now. Don't you blame her?" Jasper asked as he picked up Sandro's toys. "Of course not. She feels sorry for Ralph, so she will definitely be angry when I refute her. People will usually say hurtful things when they are angry. That's normal. Furthermore, she is already dissatisfied with me, so she will definitely vent it out. She is getting old. We have to take good care of her in the future," Stella said with a smile. Jasper also smiled. She might look cold, but deep down, she knew a lot and was very considerate. "Sandro, call me Daddy," Jasper said. "Daddy," Sandro shouted absent-mindedly while playing with his toys. Stella felt a sense of tenderness in her heart seeing how well-behaved he was. She lowered her head and plant
Stella lowered her head and smiled softly. Jasper looked at her, perplexed. "What are you laughing at?" "I feel very blessed, so I'm very happy. Thanks to my past efforts, I could find happiness so easily now," Stella said happily. The street lights were reflected in her eyes, and they were sparkling with emotions. His heart softened upon hearing what she said. Raising a smile, he held her hand, their fingers interlocked, and he said, "I'll tell you everything in the future. I won't leave you guessing or force you to make a choice." "That's the best. You know, you will always hate the job you do. I always need to guess people's minds at work. It's annoying as it feels like life is just exhausting," Stella replied as she leaned on his shoulder and looked up at the moon. The moon that night was very round, bright, and beautiful. "When are you going to see Eli in D Country? I'll arrange for it," Jasper said softly. "I would like to meet Sean befor
"Stella was bathing just now, and Ralph turned off the water pump," Jasper said in a low voice. Suzi paused and looked at Jasper in disbelief. She asked, "Did he really do that?" "When Bettany was there, she kept messing with Ralph and Stella's relationship. Back then, Bettany accused me of killing my friends. In order to save me, Stella kidnapped Ralph and tried to force Bettany to tell her the truth. But Bettany would rather abandon Ralph than tell her the truth and save me." "What happened in the end? How did you get out? Didn't Bettany betray Christian and save you?" Suzi didn't know much about what had happened that year. "Bettany betrayed Christian because Stella went to find Frederick. Everything that Bettany did was just to get Frederick's favor. In the end, Bettany was sent to an asylum, but Ralph always remembered that it was Stella who kidnapped him. That's why he hated Stella to the core," Jasper explained. Suzi understood. "So, what are you go
