The first thing Stella Judd did after she was reborn was kneel in front of her parents to beg sincerely, "Mom, Dad, if I have to marry into the Chilton family, I want to marry Eric!" Her parents were surprised. "Don't you like Noel, Stella? Don't you remember that Eric is Noel's uncle?" Something flashed across Stella's eyes as she was reminded of a memory. She spoke sadly, "I know what will happen if I continue liking Noel. I can't ever be with him. "Mom, Dad, I've never asked you for anything. As a heiress who has enjoyed a luxurious life in this family for as long as I can remember, I know it's my responsibility to uphold this marriage alliance. This is my only request, so I hope you can agree to it."
View MoreThe winter wind was sharp and freezing.Stella was standing alone on the empty rooftop. She was in a daze.She had no idea what she was doing there and wondered why she had seen the three people she least wanted to see after blinking.Sophie was holding the hand of a little boy on her left while her right hand was buried in Noel's pocket. She walked toward Stella arrogantly."Where's your precious little daughter?"Where's your precious little daughter?"Those words were like a nightmare echoing in Stella's mind.She looked around helplessly as she tried to find any trace of her daughter, but there was no clue of life around her.Stella looked up and spotted a silver necklace flashing with a chilling light. It blinded her and hurt her eyes.She was forced to shut her eyes.When she opened her eyes again, she had left her dream behind and returned to reality.The sun was just rising, and the light shone on the calendar.It was December 27th today.Her daughter was kidnapped
After Noel's death, Eric would take the children to the old mansion every week to accompany Old Mr Chilton.Everyone knew never to mention his name again.As for the girls, all they knew was that Noel had gone somewhere far away and had no idea when he would be back.Every time Eric brought home cake, they would keep a piece in the fridge.Time washed away the sadness at home.As the girls grew older, they got even more playful. The house would be a mess if one did not pay attention to them.Stella woke up from her afternoon nap and saw them hiding in a corner sneakily. They were flipping through something.She was about to give them a scare when they ran over to her while waving pieces of paper in the air."Mommy, who's Star?"Stella was taken aback. She realized the paper in their hands looked familiar.Those were the love letters Eric had hidden.She had tried looking for them in the bedroom for the past seven years they were married but to no avail. In the end, it was th
The next second, Noel's car experienced a strong impact, and the car window’s shards flew everywhere.Blood gushed out from him like a fountain.He felt emptiness before the intense pain came.Before Noel lost consciousness, he used the last of his energy to yank off the necklace around his neck.A song was still playing in his car, which had been crushed to pieces.It sang, "I had you before. It pains me so much now."Stella found out about Noel's accident eight hours later.Their family was still at the old mansion that night.The girls were already asleep and still muttering about wanting to put away a piece of cake.Eric and Stella thought they were still thinking about the castle cake and were discussing if they should order another one the next day. That was when Eric got the call.His smiling face immediately turned grim as he quickly put on his clothes."My big brother said that Noel has been in an accident. I'm going to the hospital to check on him. Stay here with t
Old Mr. Chilton decided to organize a birthday party for the children's sixth birthday.Stella requested the kindergarten to give the children two days off, and the entire family went to the old mansion a day in advance.As the party was about to start, the cake they had pre-ordered had yet to arrive.Eric wanted to drive to the bakery to ask about it, but Stella refused to let him leave the house. She would rather get the domestic helpers to bake two cakes for them.However, Eric knew that his daughters had been looking forward to the castle cake for a long time, and he did not want to disappoint them.Old Mr. Chilton doted on his grandchildren and told Eric to hurry up so he could come back faster. However, Stella still refused to let him go.Eric wanted to talk sense into her but relented when he saw the worry in her eyes and her slightly trembling hands. He put his keys down."What's wrong? It's their birthday celebration. I won't go if you don't want me to. Cheer up, okay?"
Eric pressed his fingers between his eyes as he felt deep regret for his innocent thoughts back then."We don't have lively personalities. How did our children end up with so much energy?"Stella had something to say about this. She looked at him and answered him seriously."It's because you keep giving in to them. You always make up excuses for them when I'm about to lecture them. How can they quiet down? I think you brought this on yourself."Eric did not dare say a word after getting lectured by Stella.Lowry, the driver, laughed happily when he saw Eric being taught a lesson."Madam Stella, Mr. Chilton's place at home has been taken over since you married him. Who would have known that someone stoic as him would end up becoming a slave to his daughters?" Eric did not retort. All he did was shake his head in exasperation.Stella covered her mouth to sneak a laugh. She was all smiles."Don't get tricked by his troubled face, Lowry. He's really enjoying it.""You're right,
Seven months later, Stella gave birth to a pair of daughters.She and Eric agreed that their oldest daughter, Aisling Chilton, would take over the Chilton business while their youngest daughter, Aurora Judd, would inherit the Judd business.He stayed by her side during her pregnancy and completed all his work six months in advance.When the children were born, he had a lot of spare time to help Stella take care of them. Stella's mom also helped out with the babies, and Stella was happy to enjoy her free time.Once she had recovered from the birth, the happy couple returned to the old mansion with their daughters.Old Mr. Chilton was overjoyed. He divided his late wife's jewelry into two and gave them all to his two granddaughters.The other older members of the Chiltons also prepared expensive gifts. Noel's parents transferred a private theme park to them and told them it was a gift for their nieces.Stella remembered the theme park was under Noel's name.She glanced at him and
Time passed, and on the day of the year’s first snowfall, Sophie was sentenced to six years in prison by the courts for attempted murder and other crimes.Noel was dead drunk when the news reached him, but he did not care.He had been living life in a drunken stupor for the past six months and was rarely sober.No one could talk him out of it. Every time he got drunk, he would call out for Stella.His buddies could only stand by side and watch as no one dared to contact Stella.To be more precise, no one dared to offend Eric.The media had caught pictures of Eric and Stella honeymooning overseas several times. They looked like happy newlyweds with a close relationship.Eric returned with Stella from the honeymoon on New Year's Eve.During the Chiltons' New Year dinner, Eric made an announcement with a happy look on his face."Stella is pregnant. The doctor says it's twins."As everyone congratulated them, Noel made a gaffe and broke his glass.Everyone turned to look at him.
Noel saw Eric's post on social media too.He spotted a hand with a ring at the corner of the picture and felt even deeper despair.That ring was supposed to be his.That soup was supposed to be made for him.However, he had lost everything. He was left with nothing but an empty room now.Where did it all go wrong?Noel could not understand it. All he could do was drown his sorrows in alcohol.When he got tipsy, he lost all inhibitions. He could not stop himself from calling Stella.She finally picked up on his fourth call. All he could hear was shallow breathing.He listened to her breathing with a heavy head and spoke in an upset tone."I was wrong before, Stella. I shouldn't have ignored you. I'm sorry. I know you have feelings for me. You only married Uncle Eric to make me mad, didn't you?"Divorce him and come back to me, alright? I promise you I'll give you the wedding you want. I'll make it up to you with the ring and wedding gown. I promise to be with you wholehearted
Eric kept flipping a medical report from the hospital that his secretary sent over to him while on their way home.He read the words 'Mild injury, nothing unusual detected on the organs and bones' several times before he finally stopped worrying.Stella was seated next to him. She took the medical report from his hands and stuffed it into the bag. Her tone was relaxed."I told you I was fine, but you still insisted that I went for a check-up this morning. Can you stop worrying now?""Well, I can only stop worrying after reading the medical report with my own eyes. It just takes a little more time than usual."He sounded reasonable, and Stella nodded. She suddenly remembered something important."When did you get the security footage from Noel's villa?""This morning."Eric replied without hesitation. Stella felt like she was missing something."Doesn't he know about it?""He doesn't need to know. All his assets have to go through my hands including his house, car, and shares.

"If you've made your decision, we'll visit the Chiltons to talk about this. Eric Chilton is powerful and highly ranked. He might not agree to marry you. You have to be pr...
