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
"How did they let you down?" Suzi was frightened. "This child is too terrifying. He's simply a demon. No one has ever let you down, but you have done so many wrongdoings to other people many times." Ralph pursed his lips tightly and the expression in his eyes became arrogant. "Come on, if you want to kill me, just do it. Anyway, you've been trying to kill me for a long time." "If I wanted to kill you, it would just be a matter of seconds. Your wrongdoings are enough to put you in jail for ten years," Jasper roared sternly. "It's just ten years. I'll be nineteen years old when I come out after ten years. What should I be afraid of?" Ralph said indifferently. "What a rebel! How on earth did the Milton Family have a child like you?" Suzi was troubled. "Culver, send him to Zarriah's place. Without my orders, he is not allowed to leave the island," Jasper ordered. "Yes," Culver nodded and took Ralph away. Suzi sat on the chair powerlessly, still loo
Stella could no longer remember these things, but her mood brightened when she looked at Jasper's smile. "Life will torture us, but it will also surprise us," Stella said with a smile. Jasper held her hand. To him, it was a pleasant surprise that Stella had returned to his side. Life was very short, so what else did he desire? After a while, the waiter brought in two sets of crab roe pastry, two sets of steamed buns, two bowls of mushroom soup, and a large pot of earl grey tea. He also thoughtfully served a plate of sauce and a few extra plates. "The waiter here is very thoughtful," Stella said. "Give it a try," Jasper put a steamed bun on Stella's plate. Stella took a bite and said, "The filling seems to be shrimp, bacon, and carrot. They taste good." "Yeah," Jasper replied, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Stella held her chin in her hands and looked at him. She had a vague feeling that her husband was very handsome.
Bellamy and Jasper looked nearly identical. Stella felt like she was in a trance as she looked at Jasper. Jasper held Stella's hand and replied to Bellamy, "You're back." Bellamy's face lit up with a smile. Between his brows, his charming spirit was no less noticeable than before. "Congratulations. Every cloud has a silver lining, and your dark days are over." "All the best to you too," Jasper stood on ceremony and said formally. Bellamy's eyes dimmed, and his gaze fell on Stella's face. "If I had listened to you back then, perhaps the outcome would have been different." Stella did not understand what he was saying. Didn't Jasper say that he listened to her and married Waverly Martell? "There is no turning back in life. There is no space for regret since you have chosen to live your life that way. Instead, you must enjoy each day of your life," Stella advised. Bellamy smiled bitterly and did not continue to chat with Stella. He looked at
"If I wanted to take advantage of her, I would have slept with her when you were not around. Don't worry, she's yours. My relationship with her is not what you think. Even if I did, it was you who affected me. Now that you're back, it's none of my business," Bellamy said in a low voice. He looked quietly at Stella, who was downstairs. He had dreamed of her several times over the past year. That was when Jasper parted ways with her. Whenever Jasper dreamed about her, he would also dream about her. However, this time, he thought of himself as an outsider, because he clearly knew that it was Jasper who had dreamed about her. The connection between twins was truly strange. It was easy for them to lose their senses. Fortunately, he had returned to his true self. He was grateful to Stella for never giving him any chances. "This year, I'm going to make up for her wedding. I didn't manage to do it previously due to various reasons. I also want to give her a
Stella nodded. "It's very delicious, and it has a different taste from king crabs. Try some for yourself. It'll taste even better when you taste the flavors yourself." Bellamy watched their interaction and smiled. "Do you guys still go to that island? Now seems like a good time to go." "Let's settle our matters here first, then we'll take a vacation. We'll even bring Mom and Sandro along," Jasper said. "Are you not planning to invite me?" Bellamy asked in disappointment. "You've been so busy recently. You wouldn't have time even if I were to invite you. Didn't you say that you're going to accompany your wife to M Country?" Jasper asked. There was a flash of emotion in Bellamy's eyes. "Is there wine? Crabs go well when paired with white wine. A gulp of cold wine with a mouthful of warm crab is the best." "Don't you need to go to work in the afternoon? You are now the President, your every move is being scrutinized," Jasper reminded. "I haven't h
"I think what you said before is true. I grew up in a church, so I've only been exposed to one way of thinking. I've never experienced great love, loss, or happiness. I haven't been enlightened by life. So, I plan to explore the world and experience what other people experience. After that, I will return to become a priest again," Master Olgic said. "You might not want to go back to that life anymore after experiencing the secular life. After all, you would have many more commitments and attachments in the world. Have you found a job yet?" Stella asked with concern. "Not yet, it's not easy for me to find a job. I can't exactly list down 'being a priest' on my resume, could I?" Olgic said with a smile. After all, his current state of mind was not even comparable to hers. He had no idea what would happen in the future. "I have a suggestion. When people die, some families will hire monks and priests to release their souls from purgatory. It's different from what yo
