"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
Bellamy took a nap at the military base in the afternoon. After he woke up, he got ready to leave. Stella followed him out. Jasper was reluctant to part with her. "I'll go with you." He was stating his intentions. Stella shook her head and said, "You've just returned to the military base, there's a lot here you need to deal with. I will come back quickly right after I meet Sean." Jasper was silent, and he looked at her deeply. Stella smiled. "Are you worried about me?" "Get Lynette to accompany you. She used to be a part of the Dark Shadow," Jasper said in a deep voice. Stella nodded. "Got it." She went out and got in the car. She boarded Bellamy's plane after reaching the airport. His private plane was pretty nice. The rooms were soundproof, and were set up like a hotel room with two double beds. There was also a soundproof living room with a round sofa, a coffee table, a television and a sound system. "Do you want some
Stella seemed to notice a wave of emotion in his fluttering eyes. "Sean, could you promise me that you will never take over Bellamy's position?" Sean lowered his head, took a sip of tea, put down his cup, and looked at Stella. "I promise you that I will never become enemies with Bellamy in my life." Stella smiled and said, "I'll let him know. He'll be able to release you once he's done making the arrangements." "Thank you, Stella," Sean said in a deep voice. "Eli is my best friend. She needs you, and your child needs you too," Stella said. She then got up and walked out the door. Sean closed his book. The light shone softly in his eyes as they darted up and down... Stella walked out and found Bellamy. "Bellamy, let him go. He promised that he would never become your enemy in this lifetime," Stella said. Bellamy took a deep breath. Although he was doubtful, he still nodded his head. Stella understood Bellamy's worries. "Jasper and I
"Alright, let's have dinner," Jasper picked up the tools on the ground and said to Elvis, who was still working, "It's time for dinner. Let's eat together." "Okay," Elvis put down the tools in his hand happily, turned on the tap, washed his hands, and smiled at Stella. He did not notice Lynette. Stella smiled lightly and took Jasper's arm. He looked at her. A feeling of warmth and sweetness arose from the bottom of his heart. Just by looking into each other's eyes, he felt that life was so beautiful. They entered the house. Suzi had already prepared dinner. "Mommy, Mommy," Sandro ran over again and handed the toy car to Stella. Stella's heart softened. She picked Sandro up and kissed him on his soft face. "Sandro, do you like cars?" "Cars can bring Mommy around," Sandro said as he smiled pleasantly. Suzi walked up to Sandro and held his hand. "What about Grandma?" Sandro pointed at Jasper. "Daddy, Daddy." He was trying to say
The minutes ticked by, and it became too cold for Stella to just sit there. She went downstairs and started practicing the boxing techniques that Jasper had showed her before. She practiced for about three rounds until her face was drenched in sweat. Then, she went back in and headed for the shower. "Stella, it's time for breakfast," Suzi said. "Okay, thanks, Mom. I'll take a shower first. Is Sandro up yet?" Stella subconsciously looked towards his room. "He slept very late last night, so he's still sleeping." Stella smiled when she thought of just how adorable Sandro looked, and she went to take a shower. She did not want to have another baby for the time being as she felt that it was too soon. Hence, she had to buy some contraceptive pills before getting on the plane. Jasper had already come back when she came out of the shower. He put his arms around her waist and kissed her on the forehead. "Morning." "What time did you wake up this m
Regardless, she appreciated the thought. She arrived in D Country about six hours later. She slept the entire journey there. Luckily, she did not have a headache when she got off. She was just a little nauseated. She acted accordingly to what she and Eli had planned. She went to a church to find a priest named Milore, then explained to him why she was there. He handed her a note in return. She followed the address on the note, but the door was closed when she arrived there. It didn't seem like anyone was home. Could it be that Eli had gone out? When she saw a man next door coming out to walk his dog, she walked up to him and asked politely, "Hello, I'm sorry to bother you, but do you know where the neighbor staying here might have gone to?" "Are you talking about Eli? She left quite a while ago." "A while ago?" Stella was shocked. She asked in confusion, "How long has it been? Did she say where she was going?" "About half a year ago, she
The Dark Shadows who had been hiding immediately appeared. All 16 of the men who had shown up earlier now had a red laser dot pointed right on their foreheads. One slight move and they would be dead. Surely enough, they didn't move as they glanced around at each other. "Stella," Eli's voice could be heard. Stella looked in the direction of the voice and saw Eli. "Eli, why are you here? Where have you been?" Eli walked towards Stella. "They're my men. Haward heard that you were here and he found out you bought a flight ticket. So, I sent my men here to wait for you." "Okay," Stella looked around and said, "They are Eli's men." The red laser dot on their foreheads disappeared. Eli smiled. "Are those people protecting you?" Stella nodded. "Jasper sent them." "Is he alright? He was at the brink of death when I left, and I found out that Bellamy is not Jasper," Eli asked with concern. "Yes, he has returned to the military base now.
Realizing that she might have slipped her tongue, Eli stammered. She came up with an excuse and said, "I can't control who I like." She felt very guilty after saying this. She pulled her hand back and fidgeted with her clothes nervously. Stella noticed Eli's little movements. It seemed that Eli was unwilling to tell her the reason. If she continued to ask, it would only make Eli close herself off even further. "Eli, if you ever need help, you can call me anytime. You know I would go to the ends of the earth for you," Stella promised. Eli's eyes were red. "Okay, you should check into the hotel first. Send me your address after you've checked in. I'll discuss the matter over with Haward and contact you after we make the necessary plans. " "Okay, I'll talk to the people on my side as well." "Then I'll be leaving first," Eli said bashfully as she walked towards the road. "Eli, give me your phone number so we can contact each other again in th
