Seth opened the door of the study which was on the 1st floor. As soon as he opened the door, the main light of the study immediately lit up. He sat down in a huff in his proud chair.“Young Master, wouldn't it be great if Ms. Stella got pregnant soon? I mean you’ll be free from this business marriage, right?”Lexus burning cigars. His face looks frustrated. He looked at Seth and said “You think it'll be that easy Seth?! You think Grandfather will just let Stella go?!”Seth sat opposite the Lexus. He propped up his chin. "Then, what are your next plans?"Seth was curious about what Lexus was thinking. He didn't hesitate to ask his master to allay his curiosity."if Stella can give the heir to the Rodriguez family, of course, Grandpa will defend her," Lexus continued later. He said with an expressionless face that made it hard for Seth to guess what he was feeling.“That means, Mr. Ackerley would want Ms. Stella to bear more than one heir, right?”Seth's eyes blinked repeatedly. He pres
The next day, Lexus goes with Stella to the same restaurant. Stella was curious why Lexus asked her to go to the La Vida restaurant that her husband had acquired. However, she did not dare to ask about it."Young Master, we have arrived," said Seth informed. Seth looked back. He saw Bastian already standing and opening the car door for Stella."Please, Miss!" exclaimed Bastian. He reached out to help Stella get out of the car.“Please, Young Master!” shouted another man opening the door for the Lexus.Lexus comes out with aplomb. Unlike Stella. She looked uncomfortable in the clothes she was wearing.“Stop pulling down your skirt, Steffy! Because you look feminine and pretty in it.”Stella's long hair was tied in a high bun, leaving only her hair hanging down. Her beautiful eyes were thinly made up, as well as the rest of her face. Stella chose light makeup like this because she rarely dressed up in the past.'Even though the makeup is light, it doesn't diminish her beauty. She really
“I heard that your family company is on the verge of bankruptcy. Is the news true, Dad?”After drinking the orange juice, Lexus started the first question for Odolf. He put the glass back in his hand where it belonged. He stared at Stella.“Eat your steak, Darling!”Lexus smiled. Of course, it made everyone who was there aghast.'Oh, what's this? He smiled. This is the first time I saw his smile. I thought he couldn't smile,' Stella said to herself. She was dumbfounded.“Oーokay ….”Stella immediately grabbed her cutlery. She was cutting into the beef steak that the waiter had just brought her. She wasn't good at ordering food, that's why Lexus had control over her."Please eat, Dad!"Lexus exclaimed forcedly. He didn't want to get the nickname son-in-law from Odolf. However, did Odolf dare to say it?"Yes. The steaks at this restaurant are really good. You didn't go wrong choosing this restaurant." Odolf praised his son-in-law. He cut his steak with a smile.'I'm too excited. My hands
'Damn! Why is Lexus still questioning my company? It has nothing to do with him at all,' complained Odolf. He had no intention of answering it. However, the looks in Lexus and Seth's eyes made him uncomfortable.“Drechsler Mart is fine, Lexus. The finances are stable,” answered Odolf.Hearing Odolf's answer, of course, made Stella's eyes widen. She felt cheated by her father. She said, “Didn't Dad say that the company is in need of money?!”Odolf put down his cutlery. 'Why is this child so stupid!' Odolf cursed in his heart. ‘What should I say to Lexus?’"Did Dad say that, Sweetie?"Stella was getting used to Lexus's sweet demeanor. She took a deep breath, then said to herself, 'I feel comfortable when Lexus treats me like a wife. God, if I may be greedy, please let him be like this… at least just this once!’Stella sincerely prayed to God. Will her request come true? Or is it just in her imagination?Stella nodded in response to Lexus. The father was surprised. Odolf started to panic
“Uh? Whーwhat did you say, Lexus?”Odolf never thought he would get a word of warning from his son-in-law. After all, he needed Lexus money. He had to follow Lexus's wishes.‘Does Lexus love Steffy so much now? This is great news. I'll tell Steffy so she switches places with Stella as soon as possible,' thought Odolf happily. 'Turns out Stella's role wasn't all that bad! Lexus easily falls in love with Stella, who he thinks is Steffy. Ha! Ha! Ha!'There was a strange feeling that Stella felt at this moment. She hesitated. She stared at Lexus. 'If he knew that I wasn't Steffy, would he still talk to Dad like that? Maybe one day, he'll throw me out if he finds out who I am!’ Stella couldn't help but think of her twin sister. 'Living in Steffy's shadow is torturous,' she continued.In contrast to Odolf, the man was happy. He unhesitatingly said, “You take it easy, Lexus. I've always treated Steffy really well since she was a toddler.”'What you say is true, Dad,' said Lexus in his heart c
Bastian looked away. He guessed that Lexus was going to kiss Stella. However, not with Seth. He is even more curious about what Lexus will do next.The distance between Lexus and Stella's faces got closer. Lexus touched Stella's right cheek with his nose, causing Stella's eyes to close. The turmoil in Lexus's heart was getting unbearable. Then, he touched Stella's nose with his. Lexus's lips parted slightly as they passed Stella's tiny lips.'Unlucky! What do I do?! I can't make out with him in the car, right?!' Lexus screamed inside. He didn't usually think like this much.Lexus's right hand played with Stella's left earlobe. Then, he motioned for Seth to leave the car immediately. Seth blinked. He opened the car door and got out of there. Seeing this, of course, Bastian did the same thing. Bastian closed the car door again.Stella could clearly hear the sound of Lexus's fiery breathing. With panting breaths, Stella tried to calm herself down.Now, the nose of Lexus has touched Stell
That afternoon, Lexus finished completing its desire. He woke up. He rubbed his eyes. He noticed a woman's hand reaching out to hug his stomach. Lexus turned around and saw a woman who was still asleep.“You look exhausted, Stella,” Lexus said quietly barely audible. “I’ll continue to follow your family game forever, Stella. And as long as it is, you’ll be in my arms. I won't let anyone harass you besides me!”After being satisfied looking at Stella's face, now Lexus tried to slowly raise Stella's hand. Because he didn't want to wake Stella up. He went to the bathroom to clean himself.***After cleaning himself, Lexus left his room. He was about to go to the study to complete some unsigned documents. But before that, he went into the kitchen to find Ella.“Ella!” called Lexus with a scream. He stopped at the kitchen door.There was the sound of women's shoes running. The sound got closer and Lexus guessed that it was Ella's shoes.“Ella!” Lexus screamed for the second time.“Yes, You
Stella continued walking without noticing a pair of eyes watching her. She arrived in front of Lexus’s study. She knocked on the door. Knock! Knock! Knock! “Ohh? Why doesn't Lexus respond to my knock on the door? Has he left the study yet?” Stella took a few steps back. She narrowed her eyes. She said, “The light of his study is still on. That indicates that he’s still in the room.” Knock! Knock! Knock! Stella knocked again on the study door. Driven by high curiosity, she decided to open it. "Hopefully Lexus doesn't scold me," she said worriedly. She opened the door slowly. Clack! “Umm?” Stella muttered as she watched Lexus from the doorway. She stepped inside and approached Lexus, who was at the desk with the computer on. She kept the study’s door open. "You fell asleep apparently." Stella stood beside Lexus. Her eyes were glued to the photo that adorned her husband's desk. “Hah?!” Stella grabbed the photo. She looked at him. "You said that you wouldn't fall in love with
"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
