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."

Stella went to the hospital to take care of her wound after leaving the bar.When she returned home, she gathered everything related to Noel and sealed them in a box.Her parents returned home just in time to see this and were taken aback."Stella, have you really let go of your feelings for Noel? Are you sure you don't like him anymore?"Her parents felt relieved to see her nod without hesitation. They said with a smile, "That's good to know. Eric is busy working overseas. We and the Chiltons got on a video call with him to discuss the marriage."Eric is much more mature and dignified than Noel. He suits you better, but he has a reputation for having very high standards, which is why we never considered him. We thought he wouldn't agree to it, but he said yes very quickly."Stella's eyes turned red immediately.She knew Eric would agree to the marriage when she first made the decision.Most of the younger generation were afraid of him due to the generational gap, and Stella wa

Chapter 3
Stella locked herself in her room for the next few days. She refused to leave.After her parents found out about Noel's ridiculous actions, they were grateful that they did not marry Stella to him. They insisted on going to the Chiltons, but Stella finally left her room to stop them.She did not want to cause any trouble when the wedding date was near.After talking her parents out of it, she fetched a design from her room.Stella did not lock herself in the room because of Noel. He was nothing to her now.She had stayed inside the room to design a wedding ring for Eric.Stella knew how valuable 'Reach for a Star' was, and she wanted to return the sentiment. She wanted to repay his love for her.She handed the drawing to the housekeeper and instructed him to find an expert to carve out her design.However, the wedding ring never arrived, even after the expected delivery date.Stella went to inquire and found out that Noel had been there to pick up some jewelry. He noticed the

"Isn't he right there? He signed your surgical consent letter. I guess you’re her husband. Didn't I tell you before that you need to watch her constantly while she's unconscious? Where did you go? Count yourself lucky that nothing happened to her. You should get the admission procedures done."The doctor tore off a hospital form and passed it to Noel before leaving the ward."He's not my husband!"Stella was still trying to explain long after the doctor left. For some reason, Noel felt a little unsettled about this."That's enough. I've already taken you to the hospital, haven’t I? Are you still playing hard to get? It's about time you stopped this game."He placed a bag on the table. His tone softened when he saw the gauze on Stella’s head."It's still hot. Have a bite." Stella was taken aback to see the familiar logo.Every time she was sick, Stella would get all princessy and refuse to eat anything. Noel would go dozens of miles away and get into a long queue to buy this

Stella finally looked up at Noel. There was a tinge of excitement in her voice, which was a change from her coldness in the past few days."Your uncle is back in the country?"Noel was relieved and smiled when he saw Stella back to normal."That's right. Are you so eager to marry me? Don't worry. I'll be at the wedding. Just stop acting like this in the future. You can play hard to get a couple of times, but it's annoying if you do it too often," Noel said as he opened the car door.Stella knew it was pointless to explain anything to him. She stayed in the car and said, "I want to go home. I want to put on some makeup and change my clothes."Noel figured she must love him a lot to put so much effort into this dinner. She probably wanted to leave a good impression on his uncle. He raised an eyebrow and agreed to something she wanted for once.After Stella got ready, they headed to the old Chilton mansion.Many people were attending the dinner, and they were not surprised to see S

Stella visited her family's aquafarm the next day after finding out Eric enjoyed fish. She wanted to catch a few fish to practice cooking them for Eric in the future.She had just picked a fish she liked when she turned to see Sophie walking toward her. Stella had no idea how Sophie had managed to get inside. Sophie was wringing her fingers while looking pitiful."Miss Judd, are you angry because you found out that Noel got hurt from a fight while trying to protect me? This is entirely my fault. Blame me if you must. I know you're his fiancée. I'm just the daughter of a maid and not worth any of his time…"Stella frowned when she heard Sophie's tone, which was not as innocent as it sounded. She turned to leave.Sophie grabbed her hand. Stella was bewildered until she saw a taunting smile on Sophie's face.Before Stella realized the reason behind Sophie's change of expression, she saw Sophie raise her hand to slap herself hard several times. She wept uncontrollably after that.

Stella received a message one day before the wedding.It was short and to the point. "I'm going back. See you tomorrow."The message had no name or remarks, but she knew who it was from.It was him.Eric Chilton.Her unsettled heart finally settled down, and she had a good night's sleep.A fleet of cars from the Chiltons arrived at the Judds at ten in the morning the next day. Cameras followed behind them.This was a marriage alliance between two major families, and it was about to be streamed live for the entire city for the public to watch.Noel got out of the car and went upstairs. He was stunned when he saw Stella in a white gown.For some reason, he felt deja vu and was out of sorts for a while.It was not until someone gave him a gentle reminder that he reached out his hand to her.However, Stella did not take it. She looked at him calmly and said nonchalantly, "You came to the wrong place, Noel Chilton. You should be seated with the guests."Her words infuriated Noel

Eric stepped forward in a perfectly tailored black suit as millions of eyes watched him.He pushed up his golden-framed glasses and nodded slightly at everyone at the wedding.His clear eyes swept over the guests. It was quite intimidating.The entire hall instantly turned silent.All of the guests were taken aback. No one expected the groom to be Eric instead of Noel.As for Noel and his buddies, all of them were stunned.Noel clenched his teeth, and the veins on his forehead began to throb. His voice was filled with rage."Uncle Eric? That's impossible!"Something must be wrong!"Everyone in the room snapped out of it when they heard Noel. They began to stammer as they agreed with him."Y-yeah! The host must have got it wrong! How could Eric Chilton be marrying Stella Judd? They're a generation apart!""How could she be good enough for Eric Chilton when she doesn't even deserve Noel? This must be a mistake."Eric had already walked to the center of the stage while they we

Stella reacted happily in front of both families."We're a family from now onward."Her words were a heavy weight on Noel's heart.Noel clenched his fists hard and stared at the person in front of him.Stella could tell that he was angry and upset, but she did not care.She hugged Eric's arm and asked him about the next item on the itinerary with a smile.Eric looked at the time. When he looked up at her, his usually cold and distant eyes looked gentle."I was late because the flight was delayed. I'm sorry to keep you waiting for me so long. You must be exhausted now. Let's go back to the old mansion and rest first. Tomorrow, I'll take you to have dinner with the elders. Is that alright?"The Chilton elders laughed and teased them when they heard this."Wow, getting married has changed you. You really know how to dote on your wife.""You've always been such an uptight person, Eric. I didn't know you could speak so sweetly to anyone."Old Mr. Chilton looked extremely happy be

Chapter 10
Even though Stella was aware of Eric's feelings for her, she still felt a little uncomfortable when they were alone together as they had never really crossed paths before.Eric noticed this and spoke warmly to her."Do you have a nickname?"Stella did not expect him to suddenly speak. She nodded gently and replied to his question."My grandparents called me their 'Star'. You can call me that too…"She blushed halfway through her sentence. She was reminded of the stack of love letters she had only glanced at once before, and she lowered her eyes with slight guilt.There was a flash in Eric's eyes as if he remembered something. A warm smile appeared on his face."Their star? Shining like the stars in the sky, right?"Stella could tell that he sounded a little happy.She could not hold back her curiosity as she tried to sneak a look at his face by tilting her head slightly. She ended up looking right into Eric's deep eyes.Stella found herself attracted to him the moment their e
