Stella heard footsteps outside and immediately go straight out of the room. She saw Marvin walking up the stairs."You're home already, Sir?" Stella asked Marvin when she was standing in front of him.Marvin, who had just set foot on the second floor, frowned. "If I weren't home, I wouldn't be in this house. I'd still be outside. Your small talk is pointless. Such a strange question."Stella squinted her eyes, "Making small talk with you is clearly not necessary," she snapped irritably. "You've ruined my mood. I was so happy today.""Why? Did you get an unexpected windfall?" Marvin asked, walking past Stella."I don't like durian," Stella replied, following Marvin's footsteps from behind.Marvin, upon hearing Stella's answer, immediately stopped, causing Stella's forehead to accidentally bump into his back."Ouch…!" Stella held her forehead."The windfall I meant was getting good news or an unexpected blessing or something? Not the actual durian."Stella grinned. "Joking, Sir. I under
Marvin held the cheek Stella kissed, looking at Stella who was smiling sweetly at him. "You!" "Why?" Marvin didn't answer Stella's question because he was confused about what to say. "You were going to take a shower, weren't you? Go ahead now, Sir," Stella said. "And you? What about you?" "I'll sit here for a while. Once my ankle doesn't hurt anymore, I'll go back to my room." "No need to force yourself to go to your room, just stay here until the doctor arrives. While waiting for the doctor, I'll take a quick shower." "Okay," Stella replied with a smile. "Or should I just carry you to your room?" "No, no… there's no need, I'll just sit here." "Alright then, stay here and don't force yourself to go to your room. I'll be quick." Stella nodded. Marvin got up and walked to the bathroom to clean up. 10 minutes later. Stella, who was sitting on Marvin's bed, looked towards the door when she heard it open. She saw Miss Bertha and an elderly man who looked to be over
"Put on your clothes or you’ll catch a cold, sir," Stella said with a smile after exchanging kisses with her husband."Are you sure you want me to put on clothes? Won’t they just come off again soon?" Marvin responded.Stella furrowed her brow, trying to understand Marvin’s words, and after a few seconds, she caught on to what he meant.She narrowed her eyes and looked at Marvin with a scornful glare. "You're such a pervert! I would never go that far with a man who doesn’t love me. It’s too precious.""Then what about what we just did? You gave me your lips. Isn’t that precious to you?""Huh? Hmmm…" Stella thought for a moment to find an excuse.She had allowed it because she had started to have some feelings for Marvin, so she was willing to kiss him. But going further than that, she wasn't ready. She wanted to do it with Marvin, but only when he confessed his love for her."That is also precious, but you already took it before. So, since it’s already done and it felt pretty good, I’
"Just leave him, Stella. Stay with me and Mia. Why stay with someone as temperamental as him? You'll only suffer emotionally if you stay with him."Stella quickly shook her head. "No, I'll never leave my husband. I love him, and I believe that someday he will change."Damian paused for a moment upon hearing Stella's words. After a while, he finally spoke, "In the past... you loved me very much, didn't you?""Tch!" Stella scoffed, "Haven't my sincere words been enough to convince you that I loved you deeply back then? I even trusted you to the point where my father's wealth became yours. And now you're still asking? Your question is ridiculous.""What if you tried to fall in love with me again," Damian said, ignoring Stella's words.Stella immediately looked at Damian with a shocked expression. "What did you say? Fall in love with you again?"Damian nodded immediately. "Come back to me, Stella.""Are you out of your mind? You should already know what my answer is. You shattered my hear
"Oh my goodness, Madam, where have you been? Why are you only just now coming back?"Stella furrowed her brow seeing Miss Bertha looking worried and slightly scared. "Why?" she asked. "Is there a problem?""Of course there is, Madam. If there weren't, I wouldn't be this frightened."Stella's brow furrowed further. "Why?""Mr. Marvin, Madam. He's been furious, he even fired Mr. Halbert.""What?" Stella looked at Miss Bertha in shock. "Mr. Halbert was fired?"Miss Bertha nodded. "I've never seen Mr. Marvin this angry before. It's the first time he's been this furious.""But why was he so angry? There must be a reason, right? He wouldn't get angry for no reason.""Mr. Halbert was fired because he was deemed unable to look after you, Madam.""Huh? Because of me?" Stella asked, pointing to herself."Yes, Madam. Mr. Halbert was fired because he couldn't prevent you from leaving the house. It seems Mr. Marvin was afraid something bad might happen to you because your leg is still hurt.""Oh m
"Next time, I won't be careless about charging my phone. I'm sorry for making you worry," Stella said.Marvin nodded. He kissed Stella's forehead and hugged her again. A smile appeared on Stella's lips as he kissed her forehead. She pulled away from the hug and looked back at Marvin.As they stared into each other’s eyes for a while, Marvin bravely kissed Stella's lips. Stella wrapped her arms around Marvin's neck.Marvin, growing bolder, began to unzip Stella's dress from the back. He continued lowering it without any resistance from his wife. He laid Stella down on the bed, positioning himself above her, and they looked into each other’s eyes again.“Is it… okay if I…?”“Yes,” Stella answered quickly.Marvin smiled back, kissing Stella's forehead, then her cheeks, showering her face with kisses.“This is your first time, right? I'll be gentle. Let me know if I'm too rough or if it hurts. This might hurt a little.”Stella swallowed and nodded. Her heart pounded as Marvin spoke. Howev
"Say it clearly, what are you?" Stella asked, tapping Marvin's shoulder as he had been speaking nervously since earlier."I love you!" Marvin quickly confessed.Stella, upon hearing Marvin say that, immediately smiled. Meanwhile, Marvin covered his mouth with his hand and his eyes widened."What did you say, Sir?""N-No! I didn't say anything," Marvin replied, getting up from his seat."But I heard you clearly. Earlier, you said you love me," Stella raising her head to look at Marvin standing beside her."You misheard!" Marvin replied, his heart pounding fast after confessing his love for Stella. Marvin also looked embarrassed and unsure of what else to say."I couldn't have misheard, you clearly said that you—""I'm going down to eat, I haven't eaten since noon," Marvin interrupted, then walked out of the room."Well, then I'll eat too," Stella replied, unaware that her leg still hurt as she got up from the bed.Stella was too happy hearing Marvin say he loved her to notice that she
"DON'T RUN AWAY!""Damn it!"Stella escaped from two burly men who were chasing her. She ran into an alley and hid in the neighborhood's public bathroom. Quickly, she took the cell phone and called someone."Leave the house now. Wait for me at the red light intersection near the bakery. Bring our clothes too!"Without waiting for her sister Mia's response, she immediately switched off the phone. The draining incident made her lean her head against the door while catching her breath.After feeling that it was safe, she opened the door slowly while peeking out. She stepped slowly, observing the surroundings warily."Looks like I'm safe," she muttered, then walked quickly to meet her sister at the place she had mentioned earlier."HEY! DON'T RUN AWAY!"She immediately looked back, saw the people who had been chasing her coming out of another alley and running towards her."Damn it!" she shouted, then ran again as fast as she could to avoid them.After running for quite some distance, her
