Despite her efforts to stay true to the impersonation, she couldn't help but show glimpses of kindness and warmth toward Arianna. Stellina's genuine smiles and gentle gestures caught Arianna by surprise, yet the young girl couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort and affection in Stellina's presence.As the dinner progressed, Stellina found herself subtly engaging with Arianna, bending the rigid boundaries of her impersonation.

After the dinner concluded, Diego approached Stellina and praised her performance, impressed by her convincing portrayal of Vellina. "Your act tonight was truly remarkable, Stellina," he commended, his voice filled with genuine admiration. "You played the role flawlessly, capturing every nuance of Vellina's character, and your quick thinking saved us from potential complications."Stellina, although visibly exhausted, couldn't help but let a small smirk escape her lips. "Save your praise, Diego," she replied, her tone laced with a hint of bitterness. "Let's not forget that I'm doing all this solely for my father's sake. He's under your care in one of your private hospitals, receiving treatment from your trusted doctors."Diego nodded, understanding the weight of Stellina's sacrifice. "I know, Stellina," he said, his voice filled with gratitude. "I appreciate your commitment to your father's well-being. But remember, your efforts have also given us a chance to secure our position withi

Diego went outside and turned to one of the maids, instructing her to bring Arianna to their room. "Go and fetch Arianna," he said with a firm tone, the authority in his voice evident.

He took a moment to compose himself, as if contemplating his next words. The atmosphere in the room grew tense, as if something significant was about to be revealed."I want to express something to you, Stellina," Diego began, his voice slightly softer than before. "I appreciate how well you've connected with Arianna. She means everything to me, and seeing her happy and cared for brings me a sense of gratitude that I can't easily put into words."Stellina, surprised by the sincerity in Diego's voice, remained silent, waiting for him to continue.

The morning light gently streamed through the windows, casting a soft glow across the room. Stellina's eyes fluttered open, and for a moment, she was disoriented. The realization of her current situation slowly settled in as she glanced around the unfamiliar surroundings. Diego was nowhere to be found.With a sigh, Stellina carefully extricated herself from the warmth of the bed, taking extra care not to disturb the still-slumbering Arianna. She tiptoed across the room, her bare feet silently padding against the plush carpet. The anticipation of a new day, filled with uncertainties and challenges, stirred within her.As she stepped into the opulent en-suite bathroom, her breath caught in awe. Marble adorned the walls, and the glistening chandeliers reflected off the gleaming surfaces, creating a dazzling display of luxury. Stellina couldn't help but marvel at the grandeur surrounding her. The spacious bathtub beckoned, promising a moment of tranquility and solace.She quickly un

Arianna, rubbing her sleepy eyes, peered at the scene unfolding before her. Confusion painted her innocent face as she tried to make sense of the tension lingering in the air. "What's happening, Mama? Why did you tell Papa to leave the room?"Stellina's heart softened at the sight of her daughter, her concerns shifting from her own discomfort to Arianna's well-being. She hurriedly approached her, gently brushing aside strands of hair from Arianna's face. "Oh, sweetheart, it's nothing to worry about. Mama and Papa were just having a disagreement. But everything is fine now."Arianna's brows furrowed as she clung to her mother's words, seeking reassurance. "But why were you arguing, Mama? Did I do something wrong?" Arianna's eyed rounded with a sparkly accent inside it, as she felt really concerned.Stellina's gaze softened with affection as she held Arianna close. "No, darling, it's not your fault. Mama and Papa sometimes have different opinions, but we love each other very much.

With doubts and embarrassment still lingering, Stellina mustered up the courage to step out of the bathroom. As she entered the room, her eyes met with the delighted gaze of Arianna, who let out an excited cheer, clapping her hands in delight. Stellina couldn't help but smile at her daughter's infectious enthusiasm.However, her relief was short-lived when she caught sight of Diego, who struggled to conceal a mischievous grin. His eyes twinkled with amusement as he tried his best to suppress his laughter. Stellina's cheeks flushed with a mixture of self-consciousness and frustration at the predicament she found herself in.Diego, unable to contain his amusement any longer, let out a burst of laughter, the sound filling the room. Stellina couldn't help but join in, realizing the absurdity of the situation. She shook her head, her embarrassment giving way to a sense of lightheartedness. Sometimes, life had a way of throwing unexpected challenges, and all one could do was laugh it off.

Gina looked at Stellina, perplexed by the sudden change in Vellina's demeanor. It was quite different from the usual arrogance and self-centeredness that characterized Vellina's behavior. Diego, noticing Gina's confusion, gave Stellina a gentle nudge on the shoulder. Stellina paused for a moment, quickly grasping the situation."Ahem. I mean, no need to be sorry! Just make sure it doesn't happen again," Stellina declared, mustering a bossy tone in an attempt to impersonate Vellina. The room fell into an awkward silence, the weight of the situation hanging in the air.“Ahem” Diego breaks the silence with a cough. “Well, since you’re here, Gina. Won’t you please take care of Arianna? I have something important to speak with my wife.”“Ehh. But I still want to be with mama and papa!” Arianna pouts, showing her protest.“Arianna. Don’t play around now. This is an important adult matter.” Diego refutes harshly.“That’s what you and mama always said! I can sleep together with mama

Of course he could not let Eston be swayed by the stranger's words."Sir, he may have just been joking," Matteo said, trying to reassure Eston.Eston shifted his gaze from looking at Diego and the stranger's backs, to looking at Matteo. The look of doubt on his face instantly faded and he returned to arching a proud smile."That's right. Why should we think about it?

Others were making preparations for heavy equipment to unload the large container from the ship.After the special stairs appeared and stretched out as a path, Matteo appeared with three bodyguards. They descended the stairs, with the three bodyguards occasionally keeping Matteo's body balanced."Don't forget to make sure the container doesn't fall and damage the goods inside!"

There was still a little time to prepare a few things.Stellina smiled gently at Arianna who had fallen asleep in the car, but when they arrived at the airport, her eyes were perfectly round.
