Stella’s breath was instantly sucked out of her chest. She turned slowly towards the voice and her eyes widened.

Aunt Diana…

She almost blurted out those words but managed to stop herself in time.

The woman walked up to her with eyes red and teary, saying, “Is it really you, Stella? I thought I’d never see you again…”

Yvonne was completely clueless as to what was going on, so she asked, “Who is this, Ella?”

Stella stood up abruptly and shook her head, saying, “I don’t know her.”

“You don’t know me? How is that possible? I’m your aunt Diana! Have you forgotten me?”

The woman wiped away her tears and turned around to address the man behind her.

“Honey, come here! Isn’t it Stella?”

“I’m really sorry,” muttered Stella. “You’re completely mistaken. I truly don’t know who you are…”

The man walked up with his hands full of shopping bags, and when his eyes fell on Stella, he was visibly floored.

But his reactions were much more subdued than the woman’s.

    Diana looked at Stella and nodded reluctantly.“I’m so sorry for bothering you…” she said.“It’s fine,” Stella replied simply.“Oh!” Diana began to tear up again. “Even your voices sound identical! How can you not be the same person?”Seeing his wife was losing control of her emotions, Michael quickly pulled her away and took her home.After what had just happened, Yvonne was no longer in the mood for dessert.“Are you done with your food, Ella?”“Yeah,” Stella nodded. “I’m a little tired. We should get going.”“Okay,” Yvonne replied, then suddenly added, “I never knew that Stella had a family…”As she was paying the bills, she held up Stella’s chin and said, “You do remember Stella, don’t you? She’s the woman who looked just like you and was also a teacher at my training center.”“Yes, I remember her. I’ve had so many people mistaking me for her.”Yvonne sighed. “At the time,” she recalled, “she was all alone. I never saw anyone coming to visit her back then. She also wor

    There was no way Weston would let Stella get her way.“What did you have for dinner today?” he asked, pinching her nose.Stella wrinkled her nose and snorted before replying, “Garlic noodles. Why?”“Did you forget what I told you?”“No,” she argued. “You told me I could eat it once a week, didn’t you? Well, I used up that chance today.”Stella stirred and stretched, then yawned and turned lazily towards Weston. “You promised me yourself that I could have it once a week,” she reminded him. “So you must make good on your words.”Weston leaned down and bit the tip of her nose playfully.“When did you learn to be this sly and use my words against me, hmm?”Just then, Stella sensed a faint smell of smoke coming from Weston’s body.“Have you been smoking?” she asked, frowning.“Why? Does that upset you?”Stella turned up her nose and replied, “I can’t say I particularly like the smell…”Weston paused and emitted a soft, quiet chuckle.“You really do know how to get your way, d

    Most people on the film set noticed that Stella must not have had a good night’s sleep since the dark circles under her eyes were so prominent. Luckily, because she would be filming scenes in the latter part of the movie when her character had turned evil, she would basically be wearing heavy makeup, which meant her drained look wouldn’t affect the filming much.But then the makeup artist was taken aback when she saw the marks on Stella’s neck.“Whoa… what are those red patches?”She suspected that they might be hickeys, but Ella was such a young actress who was just starting out. She couldn’t possibly be so reckless and started dating already, could she?Stella looked into the mirror and frowned when she saw the red patches.She must’ve really lost control last night. She reminded Weston time and time again not to leave any marks on her body. Usually, she could stop him when she was still relatively clear-headed, but she was completely under the drug’s spell last night. Weston

    Stella made a mental note not to ever let Weston be so reckless with her body. “What kind of film do you plan on directing next?” she asked Bradley, trying desperately to change the subject.“Me?” he laughed. “I see that you’re getting bolder now, huh? You even dare to ask me about my future plans! Well, I don’t mind telling you anyway.”Stella waited for his answer enthusiastically, then she heard Bradley’s light chuckle before he stated, “My current plan is to have no future plans!”Stella was speechless.“After what I’ve gone through directing this movie,” he added earnestly, “I do believe I’ve earned a rest. This movie really has taken a toll on me.”He let out a heavy sigh, then continued, “I definitely would not be working with a demanding actress next time.”Stella knew exactly who he was referring to and just smiled without expressing any opinions on the matter.“Anyway,” said Bradley, “you’re done for the day, so go home and get a nice rest. Make sure you’re ready for

    Stella would often overhear the cast members chatting and gossipping. From there, she learned that most of them lived in an area just two blocks away. Not only was it near the film set, but the rent was cheap as well, so even though the facilities there were quite old, it was still a pretty good place to stay.“You live there?” Bradley’s brows knitted in concern. “Then your brother was right to worry about you. I don’t think there are any securities there. It’s pretty dangerous for you to live there alone.”“It’s really not that bad,” Stella smiled. “Everyone’s there, and we all take care of each other and watch each other’s back.”Bradley had more things to say on the matter, but Stella changed the subject again, so he knew instantly that she had no desire to discuss it any further. He soon left, leaving Stella alone in the dressing room. She then went on to change her clothes and remove her makeup. She was about to leave when Angelina suddenly burst into the room.“Ella! Ella!

    She had assumed that he’d been really busy at work today, which was why he came home late at night.But in fact, he’d been accommodating two women simultaneously while handling a multi-billion dollar project. Stella had to begrudgingly admit that he was a rather impressive man.She shook her head, wondering why she’d waste her time thinking about all these meaningless things.She picked up her phone and called Roger.“Sis?” he answered almost instantly.“Roger,” she replied as she got into the car. “I heard that you came looking for me on set. Why didn’t you call me first?”Roger had just come out of the cafeteria, with Riley close on his heels. He was initially delighted to see that Stella was calling him, but hearing her question made him pause.“I was planning to give you a surprise,” he explained, “but you weren’t there, unfortunately. Anyway, where do you stay right now? Can you give me your address? That way, I can go straight to your house when I want to meet you next tim

    It happened to be the exact day she bumped into Guinevere Cohen. Was it mere coincidence, or did someone lash out on her behalf?“This is our latest design, Miss. May I ask how old is the man you’re shopping for?”“He’s eighteen.”“Ah, perfect! Our new designs have been especially popular among youngsters. They’re modern, fashionable, and made of high-quality materials that…”Stella listened to the employee intently, hoping to find a set that would suit Roger best. Then, someone appeared outside the store, waving his hands frantically at Stella. However, she didn’t notice him at all.“Excuse me, Miss, but is that gentleman over there your friend?”Stella turned in the direction the employee was pointing, and her eyes met with Michael Sealey…She froze. Her pupils shrank. Outside the store, the man in a black suit was smiling radiantly at her. He seemed to be saying something, but she couldn’t make out his words due to the glass between them. She guessed it must probably be a p

    Michael Sealey was a man who yearned for total control in all circumstances. Stella had always looked up to him as an affable and friendly man in her young ignorant days, but she finally realized that he was actually your classic two-faced hypocrite. “Of course not. Why would you think that way? We aren’t close, and just because I look like your relative..." She left her sentence hanging as a sign of her tacit rejection, and Michael caught her hint. “Pardon me for bothering you. Why don’t I treat you to a cup of coffee?” “There’s no need for that.” “Please, give me a chance to express my apology,” Michael insisted sincerely. “Really, there’s no need.” Stella furrowed her brows to express her annoyance. “All right, in that case, I shan’t bother you any longer.” Michael knew that it was time for him to draw the line. “But please, at least let me give you a ride?” Stella opened her mouth to reject him, but before she could speak, someone put an arm around her shoulders

    Stella had rarely ever woken up before him.He had always been terrifyingly strong, but their lovemaking last night must have consumed a lot of his energy, leaving him so tired that he was still sound asleep.She stared at him and suddenly felt like doing something naughty. She pinched his nose and held her fingers there, trying to suffocate him. Unsurprisingly, he soon knitted his handsome brows and quickly woke up.He was surprised to see her mesmerizing eyes as soon as he woke up, which made him pause. He then took her hand into his and kissed it again and again.“Are you okay?” he asked with concern, remembering how wildly he ravaged her last night.She had only been willing to be intimate with him because she was under the influence of a drug, yet he had taken advantage of her and had his way with her over and over again last night.Stella did not speak. Seeing her like that made his expressions turn a little colder. He fell silent for a long time before he got up and sl

    The moment Stella saw him, she flew into his arms and clambered onto his body. She kissed him again and again, trying to search for his breath so she could explore his body even deeper. All she wanted was to let him extinguish the fire burning inside her.Half an hour had passed, and the effect of the drug on her body was its strongest now.Weston swallowed his saliva. Without any hesitation, he pinned her against the bathroom mirror and kissed her vehemently on her face, her shoulders, then her neck.Stella could not stop herself from letting out loud moans. The sounds she produced only drove Weston wilder. Even the corners of his eyes began to turn red now.Luckily, there was still a thread of reason in his mind. He pushed her away and, while panting heavily, asked her, “Who am I, Stella?”But Stella’s mind was occupied with her primal urges. She ignored his question and grabbed his shirt collar, saying, “Let’s do it…” The sight of her filled Weston with a desire to just give

    Weston paused, then simply replied, “Okay.”When he saw her changing into a pair of high heels, he followed her around and asked, “Where are you going?”“Oh, to a private concert.”Then she added, “If you’re going to spend the night here tonight, then please take care of Elias and Emma. But if you have to leave, I’ll ask Roger to come over instead.”“Don’t worry,” he said. “Just go out and enjoy yourself. I’ll be at home and take good care of the kids.”Stella paused suddenly, feeling inexplicably weird about what Weston had just said. It sounded like she was forcing him to stay at home and take care of the kids while she went out to have fun without a care in the world. She turned around to look at Weston, feeling like he was acting like a poor neglected housewife.She shook her head and tried to shake this terrifying thought out of her mind.When they arrived at the concert, Hayden offered his arm to her like a gentleman. They then walked into the private concert together, w

    Stella’s words rendered Weston speechless. She was right. He had been the one to agree to let Stella date other people, so he must seem like a fool saying all those things to her.He withdrew his hands and forced himself to calm down a little. “I have no intention to stand in your way,” he told Stella. “I was only worried about Elias and Emma. Since they’re also here, I think you need to take their feelings into consideration.”The children could sense the strained atmosphere between the adults, so they just waited patiently on the couch with Roger, occasionally poking their heads out to look at their parents.Seeing his kids like that, Weston slowly added, “I’m only here to see the kids, so both of you can go ahead with your date.”Stella said nothing and just took Hayden’s hand and left.When they got downstairs, Hayden glanced at her and asked, “Are you sure you want to just leave him like that?”“I don’t know,” Stella massaged the point between her brows. “I’m not sure wh

    Hayden Quirk arrived half an hour earlier than Stella did on their first date.“You’re much earlier than I expected,” he joked as Stella walked in.Stella was actually on time, but she still felt a little guilty when she saw him already waiting for her when she arrived.“The traffic is terrible today,” she said.“Don’t worry about it,” Hayden said, handing her the menu. “Mr. Ford expected me to wait for you for at least an hour.”“I seriously don’t know what you guys are up to,” she grumbled, exasperated, “but I hope it will at least be over soon. Just don’t drag it out and cause me any trouble.”She ordered a few dishes, then handed the menu back to him. Hayden took it from her, ordered a few more signature dishes that the restaurant was popular for, then looked at Stella with a faint smile.“Did you think this is all just a joke?” he asked.“What else could it be?”“I am serious about this,” he told her, his voice suddenly turning grave. “Since even Mr. Ford agreed that we s

    Weston raised his eyebrows at Ben’s words. “But he’s divorced. He has an ex-wife.”“What’s wrong with having an ex-wife?”Ben found Weston’s comment strange. “This man has good qualities. Upon investigation, he has a very good personality too. He was an active member during college. He also has an amazingly beautiful resume. It’s normal that a man like him has been married before… Besides, hasn’t Ms. Sealey been married before herself? She even has two children.”Weston’s expression turned cold at once. “Are you discriminating against her?”“I’m not.”Weston said, “Or do you think she can only find a divorced man for her second marriage?”Ben panicked. “I wouldn’t dare!”With Weston’s ridiculous amount of nitpicking, they could find no one that would match Stella.Hayden sat beside and quietly reviewed Weston’s latest psychological health report. As he turned the page, he suddenly said, “I’m actually a little interested in Ms. Sealey.”Hayden laughed a little and turned to Wes

    Stella opened her eyes and shot Weston a cold look. Then, she turned her head the other way.Weston did not touch her again. He knew she was probably angry with him, so he stayed silent.A few moments later, he reminded her, “Don’t be angry. That man is unreliable.”Stella propped her chin in her palm. “And what does that have to do with you?”Weston pursed his lips, setting his jaw in a tight line. He said, “I’ve promised to stop pestering you. It’ll be a promise. I’m fine with seeing you with another man, but at least find someone who makes me feel at ease.”“Why do I need your approval when I’m just looking for a date?” Stella found his words funny. “You’re just my ex-husband. Don’t you think you care too much?”Weston rubbed his brow, and his voice suddenly went cold. “If you don’t want me to keep pestering you like I just did, maybe you should listen to me.”Stella questioned, “Are you threatening me?”“No. I’m suggesting.”Stella was lost for words. Then, she suddenly

    Stella froze for a moment when she heard the voice. When she turned around, she saw that Weston had appeared behind her at some point.Weston stared at the man behind Stella with a cold gaze and an icy aura around him. Weston had always emitted a strong aura around him. Anyone who saw him would immediately be terrified because of his intimidating aura.The man froze for a moment at Weston’s sudden appearance. He took a step back and quickly steadied himself before greeting Weston, “Mr. Ford.”He still had the same calm and gentle look. “I’m sending Miss Cicily back.”“I know. Don’t ever show up in front of her again,” Weston told him. “You don’t have to send her back. Stay away from her.”It would be a little inappropriate for the man to act a fool at Weston’s straightforwardness, so he tugged at his collar and asked Weston with a polite smile, “Mr. Ford, you should give me a reason, shouldn’t you? I’m having a good time with Miss Cicily.”“You’re the one who thinks she’s having

    Stella smiled. It seemed like he had come prepared.Stella enjoyed chatting with the man. He was sincere and introduced himself properly as soon as they started chatting.The man was also a pianist and came from a scholarly family. Although not super wealthy, he was doing considerably well in the middle class. Stella would not need to worry about the quality of life with him, but that was about it. She certainly could not live a luxurious life.Stella had a good impression of him. She also talked to him a little more about piano music.Stella twirled her hair and smiled. She told him with a nice voice, “I’m sure Roger has already told you about my situation.”“I know.”The man looked at her gently and set the coffee in front of her. He said to her, “I’m very interested in you. I think we’re very suitable for each other. Our living standards nowadays have improved quite a bit.
