Stella felt exhausted after a day of tidying up her apartment. Her eyes began to feel heavy, especially since she had just soaked in warm water. She walked out and sat in the living room and turned on her TV. But it didn't take long, Stella was already fast asleep on her white long sofa. She didn't even notice when the door of her apartment was opened from the outside by someone. "Gosh! How can you fall asleep on the sofa, Stella!"William squealed in surprise. This time he did not come alone, but together with his assistant, Audrey. "Audrey, open up all the food that I bought for Stella! Keep everything on the dining table, I will carry Stella into her room first," William ordered."Okay, Mr. William."After watching Audrey go to the kitchen, William immediately picked up Stella slowly. "What are you doing all day today, Stella? Did you join in tidying up this apartment with the workers? How can you even make your body exhausted?" sighed William, feeling resentful himself.Willia
William lay quietly on his bed. He closed his eyes, yet couldn't fall asleep at all. His thoughts drifted back to all the things that had happened lately, uneasily. When would Stella be honest about her pregnancy to William? She couldn't possibly hide her pregnancy from him forever, would she? Her belly will also inevitably get bigger and bigger over time.After a while, William couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He doesn't care whose baby Stella is carrying at the moment. Although the baby belongs to Lexus, William will still take good care of Stella and the baby. As long as Stella is willing to continue to be with him, he will do whatever he can do.Stella awoke when sunlight broke into her room through the curtains. Although she had trouble sleeping last night because she remembered Lexus, without her expecting, she was in a pretty good mood this morning.Stella walked towards the bathroom to clean herself up and came out after a while. Today she wants to use a Salem-colored k
'What's wrong with William? He was not surprised at all to hear my confession! Or did he deliberately hide his feelings before me?'Stella stared at William's face for a few minutes. Deep in her heart, there were so many questions that Stella wanted to ask William, but the man did not respond to her.William was still speechless. He waited for Stella to finish her explanation. 'It seems, Stella has finished speaking,' William thought.No one spoke for a few minutes. The two were busy with each other's thoughts.'What is William thinking of me now? Is he mad at me? Gosh! What should I do now?'"My sweet Stella, sit down please!"William didn't change his attitude when Stella admitted her pregnancy. Stella sat directly on William's left side with her face down.'Is he going to leave me? Is he going to ask me to abort this fetus? Does he hate me now?' So many questions filled Stella's mind at this time. She was faced with a situation that did not benefit her at all. She tried to hold on
Stella looked doubtful of William's remarks. She was silent. She was busy arranging her heart and mind.'What do I have to answer? What should I say to William? As for me ... I don't have the slightest love for him,' Stella thought. 'I can't possibly accept his love. For my heart is wholly owned by Lexus.'William pulled Stella back and hugged her. William smiled. 'Maybe I'm selfish, stupid, and greedy. However, I absolutely love Lexus. Yes, I have to be honest with my feelings. And, that night ....'Stella remembered that night again. Yes, the happiest night for her. 'I never expected that night would be my last night with Lexus! I even feel the tenderness of Lexus's heart!' Unconsciously, Stella exhaled a long breath. 'I miss you so much, Lexus. However, what can I do? Because Steffy has returned by your side! Let my heart break and not yours,' Stella thought. William grabbed Stella's chin and then turned up the woman's pretty face. "Do you doubt me, Stella? Are you going to re
William was of course surprised when Stella said she had never seen a doctor. 'How can she say that she has never seen a gynecologist before? Doesn't she care about the baby's current condition?'Seeing William who was silent, made Stella confused. "Is there something wrong?" she asked.William shook his head, not wanting to ask more for fear that Stella would be sad and think of Lexus. "Do you want me to take you to the obstetrician, Stella?"Stella wanted to say yes, but that intention seemed dim. For fear of taking advantage of William too much, so she must be indebted. But going alone wasn't the best solution for Stella at the moment. "I'll take you tomorrow to see the obstetrician, Stella. But I have one condition for you.""Condition?" asked Stella in astonishment, until William nodded his head."The conditions are not difficult, Stella. I just want you to let me marry you and become the father of the baby in your womb, Stella. Are you willing to accept me as your husband, Stell
William successfully made a deal with Odolf, just waiting for the result of William's plan. Meanwhile, Stella was the one she wanted, sitting contemplatively on the couch, and occasionally her hand rubbed gently across her belly saying, "You have to be a strong child, kid. I'm sorry Mom gotta separate you from your Dad."In that lounge, Stella was incessantly thinking about and feeling longing for Lexus, but the longing was like a broken piece of heart, not wanting this to happen. But what is power? Stella is like a horse who must submit to her master, otherwise, she wants to get a lash.A few moments later, in between her thoughts that were on Lexus's figure, a call had already successfully interrupted her reverie now. "Dad," Stella said looking at the flat object. The incoming call came from Odolf. "Hello, Dad," Stella said not so excited, considering that it was Odolf who asked her to change positions with Steffy, becoming a wife for Lexus."Stella, what have you done? Huh? You've
The first day in Russia, Alexei took Lexus and Seth to have fun in the afternoon before evening. The look on Seth's face looked so happy. "OMG! OMG! OMG!"Seth was so enthusiastic. He walked to and fro like a model on the catwalk. "Young Master, the Russian country is indeed beautiful! In addition to many historical, unique buildings, the women here are really gorgeous."Alexei chuckled lightly. "Uncle Seth!" called Alexei with a big smile. "I think, you're not interested in women!""OMG! OMG! OMG!"Seth sat on the banks of the Neva river. He crossed his legs. "I'm still normal, Mr. Alexei," Seth replied. He points the camera at his smartphone in all directions, looking for the best view. "I've been interested in women since I knew Miss Stella," he continued. Of course, Seth's remarks just now succeeded in making Lexus upset. The Young master of the Rodriguez family walked towards him. "What do you mean, Seth?"Seeing that there was a change in his master's attitude, Seth also en
"Young Master!" Seth called Lexus a second time. However, Lexus had run across as soon as the pedestrian lights came on. The goal is of course the brown-haired woman, who attracts his attention. "Stella!" Lexus grabbed the woman's shoulders until her body twisted towards her. The woman frowned in astonishment. "Oh, I'm so sorry... I guess you're someone I know," Lexus said disappointedly. It raised both hands and walked backwards away from the woman. Opposite, Seth glared at him as he raised both hands, with a facial expression demanding an explanation. Lexus just winced as he stepped foot in front of a row of cars waiting for the pedestrian lights to change. "What did you just do, Young Master?" Seth crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking at Lexus full of scrutiny. "I guess, I saw Stella. It turned out not to be her." He sighed in disappointment.Alexei stood behind Seth's back. "It seems that all the brown-haired women in Moscow will be chased one by one by you, Un
"Lexus, I didn't expect that you were someone who threw my family in jail! Why are you doing that, Lexus?! Hmm?!"When she arrived at the hotel room, Stella immediately asked about Lexus' purpose in throwing Odolf and Steffy into prison. "Didn't you forgive 'em?! Then, why did you do it?!"Stella sat on the sofa in the living room of the presidential suite, the most luxurious suite of the Rodriguez Hotel and Casino. Branch hotel in Berlin with a view of skyscrapers. Stella looked angry and unhappy at Lexus' actions. Getting such consecutive questions made Lexus reluctant to answer them. "Lexus, please answer me!" shouted Stella. Sergei looked at the couple with his head. He didn't dare to say anything. "Miss Stella, you'd better rest now! Because in a while, the doctor will come to check the gynecology."Stella didn't respond to anything. She was speechless with the world of gloomy faces. She leaned back while looking at Lexus, who was busy with his smartphone."Miss, please have
"Stella, isn't there a trace of your love for me?"William interrupted the conversation between Lexus and Stella. He looks so pitiful. "Oh, why are you still hoping for something impossible, William?!" asked Lexus in a high tone. After all, Lexus was so jealous of William. "Will, I will never be able to accept your love," Stella said bluntly. "I'm not going to leave Lexus because I love him so much.""Mr. William, are you not willing for the woman you love to achieve her happiness even if she's not with you?" asked Sergei. "Be heartened!"Sergei patted William on the back when the man stood up. "Have you made up your mind?" asked Seth. He hoped that William would not do anything unexpected. "Yes, I cherished Stella a long time ago. I will let her go for her sake as well as for the sake of the Johnson family."William looked at Stella lovingly. His chest felt tight. However, he still tried to calm down. 'Yes, I can't be selfish. If I fight Lexus, not only will I be in prison, but
Everyone stared at Lexus, who had just finished speaking, scolding William. His remarks really made William angry and hurt."Jerome, call the police here to arrest all these foreigners!"William called a bodyguard. He pointed to Lexus and his two confidants. "Okay, Mr. William," said the bodyguard. The man with a strand of hair took out a mobile phone from his trouser pocket. Then, walked away from William. "Audrey, prepare everything! I can't wait to see this honorable Young Master Lexus go to jail along with his 2 loyal men!"After exclaiming passionately, William looked at Lexus, who was sitting leisurely raising his left foot. "Yes, Mr. William," Audrey replied. William was astonished by Lexus' calm demeanor. He asked silently, 'Why isn't he affected at all by my threat?!' "I'm really lucky to know you, Mr. William Johnson," Lexus said flatly. "I also thank you because I didn't have to bother contacting the police."Audrey whispered in William's ear, "What does Young Master
"Where is my Wife?!"Lexus asked when the door to Stella's apartment opened. He confronted Amanda. "I'm so sorry, Sir. Who are you?" Amanda asked very politely. Apparently Amanda didn't recognize Lexus' face. "I ask you once again, where is my wife?!"At this time, Lexus raised his tone. Amanda was naturally surprised. She took a few steps back while holding her heart. "Young Master, please calm down! You can attract a lot of people's attention if it's like this," Seth reminded his master. Just now Seth covered his mouth, Lexus pushed the door wide open. He walked in without feeling guilty. "Excuse me, Sir, you can't enter without Mr. William's permission!"Amanda shouted as she kept holding her heart. She walked directly behind the Lexus. "Amanda, what's the matter? Who came? Why are you so fussed?"A gentle female voice. Yes, the sound managed to slow down the heartbeat of Lexus. "Miss, there is a guest, who came by shouting. However, when I ...."Amanda was speechless. She
10:00 a.m. in Kazan, Russia. Seth was sipping coffee alone in the living room of the hotel room of the president suite. This morning, Seth was tidy up because he was going to attend an online meeting of the Rodriguez Holdings Company. Before the meeting starts an hour, Seth spends a lot of time on his social media accounts to find out the latest news about Stella's search. "Oh, what is this?!"When Seth opened his social media account, he was shocked by a recent morning news. Both eyes focused on the handsome man in a black suit, who was smiling at the camera. "Hello, good morning world!"Seth saw a female reporter say hello on his social media live. He put the coffee cup on the table. "I was in the ballroom of a luxury hotel in Berlin, Germany. At 9:00 this morning German time, a British male supermodel will announce his engagement live."The reporter smiled. Seth was even more curious about it. He sat tensely waiting for the reporter to forward his report. "Yes, that handsome gu
William came over with his arrogant attitude. He opened the door of Stella's room carefully. Tuck! Tuck! Tuck!William walked towards the bed. With the dim lighting, he vaguely saw the figure of a woman fast asleep. "Welcome home, Mr. William!"Amanda stood on William's left side. She exclaimed in greeting her master, who had just come. "How long has Stella been asleep? Has she eaten dinner?"Amanda glanced at the watch on her right wrist. "Miss Stella has been asleep for 60 minutes, Sir. And, Miss has eaten dinner before going to bed."William did the same. He glanced at the elegant limited edition watch wrapped around his right wrist. "It's 8:00 p.m. Berlin time. And, what time did she have dinner, Manda?"William turned his head to the left side. He saw Amanda looking at him. "Before dusk, Miss Stella had already eaten dinner. She asked me to advance the dinner hour because Miss's hunger wanted to be satisfied immediately"William frowned. He replied to Amanda, "Then go to the
Lexus went live streaming for 30 minutes on one of its social media accounts. He explained the history of Soyembika Tower as well as the purpose of visiting Kazan, Russia. "Thank you for joining to watch my Video. Lastly, I will say a sentence of longing and love for my Wife ...."Everyone around Lexus was moved. The women can be seen rubbing their cheeks wet with tears. Lexus lowered his head for a few moments. Then, he looked up his face. He said, "I miss you, Stella, and almost went crazy about it. I love you to the moon and back." Lexus closed out an impromptu live streaming event this time.***"Gosh!"A woman yelled, which made Stella startled. Stella woke up with a sweat pouring out. She turned to look at Amanda, who was sitting in the corner of Stella's bedroom. "Amanda, what's the matter?"Stella got off the bed. She walked up to Amanda. "Are you okay, Amanda?"Amanda was staring at the screen of her smartphone. Stella was curious about what she made. "Did you quarrel wi
The distance from Moscow to Kazan is approximately 719 kilometers. Lexus private jet plane landed about 2 hours ago. The cold air felt by him did not hinder his visit to Kazan. "Young Master, please drink your coffee!" Seth came over with coffee. Now, they're in a coffee shop right on Bauman Street. "Where is Doctor Sergei? I haven't seen him since just now." Seth sat opposite Lexus. "I'm here, Seth. I just got out of the toilet," said a male voice from behind Lexus's back. "Sergei, is Bauman Street not traversed by vehicles?" asked Lexus. He watched around him.Sergei sat on the left side of Lexus. "Yes, that's right. Bauman Street is located in the middle of the city. It starts from the Kazan Kremlin and ends at Tukay Square. Besides, there are many shops beside it," he replied, occasionally playing with the fingers of the hand while answering Lexus's questions. Lexus nodded. He stared at his expensive watch that adorned the right wrist. "The travel time from Moscow to Kazan
Stella's heart really hurt. Her breathing was irregular. 'Yes, what William says is true. I'm just a surrogate bride. However, Lexus has expressed his love for me. Was it wrong for me to expect more?'Stella's heart sank when she was faced with the facts. She looked at William with anger and revenge. "Amanda!"William shouted the name of a new maid for Stella."Yes, Sir?"Amanda ran over to William. The young woman looked pityingly at Stella."From now on, you will live here. Serve my fiancé well! Because she is pregnant. Do you get it?"Amanda understands. She nodded. "Yes, I've got it, Mr. William.""If Stella's needs run out, then you're the one who goes shopping to the supermarket! Just tell me, how much money is needed to buy Stella's needs."William and Amanda both stared at Stella."Because money is not a big problem for me," William said, ending his sentence. "I'm going back to the apartment now."William walked away, leaving Stella and Amanda. Deep inside, his heart was lau
