After making sure Joseph left safely, then Bella went to the hospital with Stev who escorted her. Hers departure was accompanied by a look of disappointment from Lucy directed at her. The man must have been disappointed in her because she stopped him from getting back at him for Joseph's treatment. She knew, but on the other hand Joseph was a friend too. She could not let Lucy hurt Joseph for any reason.
"You still think about that man?"
Stev's remarks broke Bella's reverie and shadows about the incident. The silence in this car then ended.
The woman sighed softly before answering the man.
"Is Lucy mad at me?" She asked with a little doubt.
The man who was focused on driving then turned the steering wheel to the right.
"Maybe." He replied without interest. He doesn't seem to care if Lucy and Bella are silent on each other when they arrive at the mansion.
"How?"Ellen sighed softly as she looked at the spiky man who was now sitting relaxed on the soft sofa in Stev's residence. As for Ellen, the woman threw her cellphone in any direction before sitting down too."We're leaving early. After all, it was something Stev had wanted so badly from long ago."Lucy snorted, the man looked around him that looked absolutely nothing interesting. It looked flat in his eyes."Normally I would be very happy if I got a replacement job Stev. But, somehow this time I feel so lazy."Ellen sneered softly as she looked at the man with a sneer."You stupid." Ellen shook her head slowly as she walked away. Leaving behind the annoyed Lucy who was currently looking at her."Witches are annoying." The man grumbled as he stood up from his seat. Head to him room and prepare to go along with Ellen.
"Where do you want to go?"Bella looked at Stev, who was buttoning his shirt right now.Meanwhile, the man the woman was talking to only glanced briefly at Bella."Why do you always want to know what I'm going to do?" The man didn't answer and instead threw a question back at Bella. Makes the woman snort softly when she hears it.She looked away from Stev and pursed her lips like the mouth of a fish."Not. It's just that your appearance looks different this time. Do you want to attend a party or something?"After finishing buttoning the last button on his shirt, the man walked over to Bella and stood in front of the woman. Him tall posture towered over Bella, who was now sitting on her bed, making Stev look like a tower in Paris."What?" The woman raised an eyebrow as Stev's gaze fell on her.“You said my appear

"This is our last auction item…."The spokesman opened the cover of the object in front of him. After the rest of the items had been sold at a fantastic price, this time it was charging much higher than the previous ones.Everyone present at the auction tonight widened their eyes when they saw a pitch black gem of a not so large shape."This is a Black Angel Jewel. The only remaining gem from hundreds of years ago. We'll charge five million dollars for this tiny gem ... "After the spokesperson who was up front finished speaking, several people who wanted the rare gemstone immediately lifted their boards and charged more."Five million and a half dollars!""Six million dollars!""Six million point eight dollars!""Fifteen million dollars."Everyone who was bidding on the Black Angel gem was
Three in the morning, Stev and the three friends arrived at the mansion. Being too tired, Stev without thinking immediately went inside first and left his two friends behind him .The man walked slowly through the dark main room. His ears vaguely heard the sound of the television still on. He frowned thinly, his footsteps getting closer and closer to the sound of the television that was getting more and more clear.And sure enough, he couldn't help snorting lightly as his eyes caught the tiny figure who was now curled up comfortably on the sofa with the television still on. And several empty ice cream boxes that are now filling the table completely."Bad habit." He spoke softly.Stev took a deep breath. The man immediately drew closer to Bella after turning off the television, which was now showing insignificant broadcasts in his eyes. With both his hands, he lifted her small body with ease and carri
Bella rubbed Dori's head gently on her lap. Meanwhile, Mory, Dori's twin male dog, doesn't seem to want to lose either. The dog with pure white fur was now stroking its big head at Bella from behind."Looks like you can be friends with my dog."Suddenly an uninvited voice came at her. And the figure of Stev in his casual clothes sat next to her just as the wind blew with the dry leaves flying. Make Dori suddenly get up and chase the dry leaves followed by Mory.Bella sighed softly as she turned her face to the man next to her."You made them both go away " Bella said irritably.But Stev paid no heed. The man only smiled faintly and then took out a cigarette from his pocket. Slipped one of these cigarettes over his thin lips and lit the lighter.Bella frowned. She looked disinterestedly at the man as Stev began to inhale deeply and let out the smoke in a singl
The man said while gently rubbing the woman's back. Let Bella feel goosebumps for a moment.This woman knows. If Stev is sure to say this it is not without reason. The man must have had some ulterior motive for his words.As long as she was here with the man, she was beginning to know how Stev's brain worked.Bella actually really wanted to not care about that man. But hers impulse made her undo what she really wanted to say. Especially if this man stopped smoking, Bella was sure that she would not be bothered by cigarette smoke anymore."What do you want?"The woman immediately spoke to the point.Stev grinned as lightly as he could. He felt that the woman who was currently in his lap was getting smarter at understanding him character. So, that he did not need to say what was on his mind, the woman had grasped the point well."You're get
"Miss, where do you want to go?"Nana's voice made Bella turn her gaze toward the kitchen. She could see Nana's figure there with a glass full of foam in hers hand. It seemed that the woman was busy washing glasses and overheard her footsteps as she descended the stairs. Even though she only uses fur sandals at this time which doesn't make a loud enough sound. But it looks like Nana really has sharp hearing.Bella smiled faintly at the woman."I want to see Jenjay for a while, I haven't been there for a long time," replied the long-haired woman who now replaced her fur sandals with shoes with heels that weren't too high."You want to go there? But, your leg just healed… "Bella put her index finger in front of her own lips. Tells Nana not to make it loud."Shhh ... I won't be long." She said as quietly as possible.Nana was stunned
"Oh! I didn't think you would be so beautiful in that wedding dress!"Bella lifted her face, she smiled sweetly at Kylie who had just come along with Sean. Hers distended stomach made her cautiously walk towards Bella."Thanks, Kylie." Bella hugged her best friend and vented all her longing there.Kylie patted Bella's back lightly. "Be happy with him." Kylie said sincerely. She let go of hers arms and looked at Stev who was still sitting watching the interaction between the two."You have to take good care of Bella!"Steve snorted. Even without someone ordering him he would certainly do that."Congratulations on your pregnancy."Kylie looked stunned when she heard what Stev had just said. But a second later she smiled. She nodded happily as she rubbed hers stomach.Soon after that. Come Jennie with her boyfriend, Jack
"Bella!"The long-haired woman turned around."Are you okay?" Stev asked anxiously.Bella looked at Stev with a surprised look. Even though only a few minutes ago, Stev was still seen lying under a large rainbow-colored umbrella. And now, suddenly the man was here."I—I'm fine." Bella replied. She then turned. And the young woman she had hit earlier had turned around and walked away from her."Who is she?" asked Stev as he followed where Bella was looking.Bella nodded slowly."I don't know. At first glance hers face resembles someone." She replied."Is that person a man?" Stev's brows furrowed and he looked displeased. It made Bella who was in front of him snort softly. There was a bit of annoyance because of Stev's sudden arrival so she couldn't see the woman's face clearly, she didn't even have time to talk t
Two months passed.Bella lives her life with Stev in peace. In fact, the two of them are getting closer and closer.Since Stev decided to stop being a mafia, he then accepted his father's company which from the start had been inherited by Stev. Him stepmother, of course, hated seeing her husband's company bequeathed to Stev, not Excel. But she couldn't say any more because it had already been decided.While Stev didn't care at all about Alice's hatred for him. Even since then, him relationship with him father has gradually improved.Bella told himself to take him father back. After all he was Stev's father, and he was lucky when one of his parents was still alive.Since then too. Lucy no longer lives in Steve's mansion. Bella had felt bad because it must have something to do with her. But she got a good farewell from Lucy. Lucy also said that he had bought a big house which he wo
"What are you doing?!"Stev widen his eyes full. He glared at Bella, and then turned to the suitcase by the woman's side.Bella flinched a little. She stopped what she was doing when she was folding clothes.Stev walked quickly to Bella, and then threw the woman's suitcase in any direction until the contents scattered."Stev!" Bella screamed as she looked at the man just as sharply."Who allowed you to leave here?!" The man said, trying not to yell or Bella would be even more afraid of him."Let me go. We can never be together. Everything in us is opposites ..."Stev clenched his fists tightly at his sides."Bella—,""I can't accept you if you're still on your feet, Stev." Bella looked up, she looked deeply into the two black eyes."You are selfish!"
"You must be thinking that I'm a narrow-minded person, right?"Steve looked up. He looked deeply into her clear green eyes. Looking for reasons in there for what that woman was thinking. But unfortunately, he found absolutely nothing there except only the woman's gaze that he couldn't decipher.Slowly, he opened his lips."What happened to you? We were fine before." The man said."I'm not forcing you, Stev. The decision is in your own hands."The handsome man who was now sitting in front of the woman stroked his black hair roughly."Why—,""You've done a lot of sinful things, Stev. You've done a lot of atrocities over the years, do you really not want to change?" Bella looked at the man in front of her with a confused look.While Stev could only be silent when he heard what just came out of the woman's lips.
"You came here just because of that?"Bella let out a low breath. "Can't I not?" She asked again."Bella—""You don't want to?" She cut Stev's words as she grabbed the man's finger. She stuck hers finger there.He took a deep breath as he ruffled his hair roughly."Why should it be?""I've been thinking about this for a long time, Stev." The woman stared intently into the man's black eyes.Meanwhile, Steve was silent. He didn't know what to say anymore. The woman in front of him really made him unable to breathe easily."Why don't you understand at all? I've been like this for a long time, and you should understand me. So far, any woman I've been with doesn't mind it. Actually, what's the matter with you?" For the first time. Stev really expressed his heart. He could no longer think clearly in his current state.
"Is that so?"Bella lifted the corners of her lips up. While Lucy who was next to her just nodded. He continued to drive his car past several other drivers. Drove at a moderate speed towards Frankie's residence....Bella stared at the big house in front of her without blinking. She turned to Lucy who was beside her. The man nodded, then walked first followed by Bella."Are all Stev's friends just rich people?" whispered Bella."Are you underestimating him? He can be friends with anyone."Bella nodded her head in understanding. She continued to follow Lucy's footsteps until she entered Frankie's magnificent house.Hers arrival with Lucy was greeted with cheers from the men's friends.If she could say, she actually felt ashamed to be here. But something she had to do that cou
Bella lets Lucy take her to where Stev is. In fact, she wanted to find Stev herself after Lucy gave Frankie's address. But the man still insisted on going with reasons that made her unable to say anything."Is it still far?" Bella asked again. The woman turned her gaze to the man who was driving."About another two kilometers." The man replied. He glanced at Bella out of the corner of his eye. Assess what makes a Stev can fall in love with her.As long as he had known Stev, he had never found him to have a lover. No matter how close Stev was to a woman, things would pass quickly. Nothing lasts more than three months with Stev. All because of how cold the man was to the women who always approached him. Stev doesn't particularly like being around a woman and thinks they're all quick-boring toys.Bella took a deep breath. She stared at the towering buildings before hers eyes."Do yo
“Stev … can you stop?” Bella said without looking at the man who was now typing something on his cell phone. She just stared straight at the balcony which was now wide open.The man sitting on the sofa in hers room stopped moving his fingers. He turned to Bella and smiled faintly at his lover."I'm replying to a message. Don't worry, you're more important than anyone else." The man replied. He turned his gaze back to the phone in his hand."Stop being the mafia."The three words that just came out of Bella's mouth couldn't help but silence Stev. He was stuck in place. Along with the gentle squeeze he did on the rectangular object in his hand.Steve took a deep breath. The man then got up from his seat and walked over to Bella who was on the bed."You're too tired. You better get to bed early." He said as he faced the woman. He turned on the
