Chapter 2051

Stella had never left a good impression on Beatrice, and she disapproved of their relationship. At this moment, it became clear that the discord between Melody and Lucas was due to Stella's meddling.Melody was jealous."Let's do this, Edmund," said Beatrice after a moment of silence, coming up with a solution. "Go find Stella and tell her that I, as a senior, want to treat her to a meal. See when she's available to grace me with her presence."The implication was clear—Beatrice intended to personally handle the matter with Stella. Edmund silently mourned Stella in his heart for a few seconds. "Yes, Madam, I'll go right away."Leaving the Riveras' residence, Edmund drove to Stella's filming location and located her agent. Just as Stella finished her scene, upon hearing that Edmund had come, she felt particularly delighted. 'Lucas must be worried about my health, and he sent Edmund to check on me.'"I need to quickly touch up my makeup." Stella changed her clothes at the fastest sp

Beatrice snorted after hearing it. "It's not like I'm missing a meal because of her. Go tell her to come to the house. I'll personally cook for her," remarked Beatrice."Yes, Madam!" Edmund respectfully acknowledged Beatrice's instructions, then conveyed the message to Stella.Stella felt that things were not as simple as they seemed, but she could only maintain a polite smile as much as possible.When Beatrice sought her out, it was definitely not just for a meal. Surely she had something in mind to talk about, was it not?"Alright, I understand. I'll finish work tomorrow night and go visit Beatrice," Stella replied.The next day…Stella instructed her manager to reschedule all the appointments. After finishing work on the set, she took great care in dressing up, arriving early at the Riveras' residence.Although Beatrice politely offered to cook for her, Stella could not readily accept. Going at mealtime might appear disrespectful to the elder, but arriving a bit early allowed

Beatrice's words eased Stella's tension.She quickly smiled and said, "Um... I'm truly honored that you invited me for dinner, Madam Beatrice. However, as a junior, it's really embarrassing to have you, an elder, cook for me. How about I help as well?"Stella placed her bag aside, intending to follow Beatrice to the kitchen to prepare dinner together. Beatrice, however, extended her hand and calmly gestured to stop her. "No need. You're a guest. How can I let you do the work? Moreover, there's a rule in our Riveras—not everyone can enter the kitchen."At this point, Beatrice paused for a moment, smiling solemnly. "In the Riveras, only the mistress of the house and the servants are allowed in the kitchen."Stella's face stiffened. She finally understood Beatrice's intention in inviting her.Beatrice was using this situation to remind her of her status, to make her realize who she truly was."Alright, serve Miss Stella some tea! I should go prepare dinner for our guest now."Beatr

"Oh, did Grandma Beatrice say so? Miss Stella, please feel free to indulge. Make sure to eat more later." Melody pursed her lips, maintaining a calm expression.Stella smiled, arching her eyebrows. "Absolutely! I must eat more of Grandma Beatrice's dishes! She still treats me just as she did before. When I was little, I used to come to the Rivera household often to play with Lucas. At that time, Grandma Beatrice would often buy us candies to enjoy!"Indeed.Stella and Lucas had grown up together, so Beatrice must have known her for a long time. Moreover, given how attractive she looked, she must have been pretty in her childhood. Facing such a delicate little doll, Grandma Beatrice must have watched her fondly.Oddly enough, Grandma Beatrice did not play matchmaker for Lucas and Stella.If they had been together, she would not be here.Melody could not figure it out and decided not to dwell on it any longer."Miss Melody, you and Lucas have been married for quite some time. You

Melody paused and turned her head.Downstairs, Stella saw Lucas returning and quickly walked toward him. "You're finally back. I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"Lucas' gaze hardened when he spotted Stella, clearly not expecting her presence. "What are you doing here?"Lucas had no idea that Stella was invited to have dinner at their house."Grandma Beatrice invited me for dinner. I thought she'd tell you!" Stella's gaze caught Melody still standing at the staircase, and she quickly reached out to help Lucas take off his coat. "Come on! Take off your coat, it's warm inside. I'll hang it up for you."She looked like a proper lady of the Riveras, waiting for her husband to come home, helping him with his coat."No need." Lucas sidestepped, skillfully avoiding her hand.Melody, standing on the stairs, happened to witness this scene. She could not quite describe the feeling in her heart, so she quietly went back to her room.They could get cozy however they wished.

'Why does she keep pushing me to another woman? Does she have no heart at all?' thought Lucas.Lucas walked over to Melody with a darkened expression. It was obvious he was in a bad mood."It's true that I've known Stella for many years, and I've explained everything to you. There's nothing more I can say if you still don't believe me there's nothing more. Melody, don't forget you're my wife right now. Do what you're supposed to do, and don't reveal anything in front of Grandma and Grandpa. Play your role well!"Melody's hand, which was combing her hair, froze for a moment. She let out a bitter laugh and said, "Don't worry. When have I ever let you down in playing the role of your wife? It's you who should not keep an eye on Miss Stella lest she expose our secret to Grandma.""Always sharp-tongued as usual. I guess that's your only skill!" Suddenly, Lucas leaned in and held Melody's chin. Her skin was soft to the touch, and there was a lingering fragrance as she had just taken a sh

Beatrice's words were obviously intended for Stella. After all, she knew Lucas the best. He would not have waited until then if he had feelings for Stella. The two have known each other for a long time, and Lucas had always been indifferent to Stella. In fact, he did not like her at all.Unfortunately, Stella was too deep in her delusion. Thus, Beatrice had it in her mind that she would make it clear to her that she would never allow her to marry into the family.After casting a seemingly benevolent glance at Stella, Beatrice led Melody away protectively.Stella discreetly glanced at the old lady and Melody's retreating figures before inviting Lucas to sit on the sofa with her.Even though Lucas grunted in agreement, he chose not to sit next to her. Instead, he settled on a nearby armchair.Stella felt a bit unhappy, but it did not matter. They were the only two in the living room, so what difference did it make if they were seated far apart?'Finally, we're the only ones here! A

Beatrice wanted Stella to taste the food decided by Melody to make that ignorant woman thoroughly aware of Melody's position in the family.After some thought, Melody suggested without reservation, "Let's go with the soup. I heard Grandpa coughing the other day, so chicken soup will be good for his health. As for the dessert, how about we go with something light like apple crumble? What do you think, Grandma?"Looking at the sensible Melody and caring so much about both herself and Cedric, Beatrice felt even more delighted. "I think that's a wonderful idea! I'm sure your Grandpa will be very happy to know you care so much about his health!"Melody's cheeks turned rosy, making her even more charming. "Grandma, caring for you and Grandpa is the least I should do!"Beatrice, increasingly satisfied with her granddaughter-in-law, said, "Your Grandpa and I will be able to die peacefully when the time comes as long as you and Lucas get along well with each other."Melody quickly grasped

Edmund bowed and explained, "Mister Lucas, it was Madam Beatrice who forbade me to tell you. I..."Lucas scoffed. "Don't bother with my grandparents' orders next time something like this happens. You're to inform me immediately! Alright, you can go now."After Edmund left, Lucas leaned against the desk, sighed, and furrowed his brow. He was well aware of his grandmother's thoughts, but he could not bring himself to ignore Stella completely.Years ago, Stella's father had done him a great favor. On his deathbed, he left only one wish—for him to take care of his only daughter, Stella.He agreed, and he had to live up to his word.…As the servants brought out the final dish to the dining room, Lucas still had not come down yet."That brat! All he cares about is work. Does he think the company will go bankrupt if he rests for a while? What's the point of employing so many people if he can't even take some time off?" grumbled Beatrice.Beatrice deliberately glanced at Edmund, who r

"Please have a seat."Beatrice and Cedric sat on each end of the long table, while Lucas Melody sat on the side, facing Stella.Only after Beatrice dug into her food did the rest of them begin to eat. Melody stood up to serve a bowl of chicken soup to the elderly lady."Grandma, please have more soup. I oversaw the cook making it. We took out all of the bones from the chicken and made sure the soup had thickened before taking it off the heat. I'm sure you'll love it!""Thank you, my sweet child. You should eat, too." Beatrice happily accepted the bowl, took a small sip of the soup, and nodded in satisfaction. "Mh, this soup is indeed delicious. It's full of the taste of the chicken. I love how it warms my stomach, making it feel better."Melody nodded while effortlessly picking up the shrimp that Lucas peeled and placed in her bowl.She liked eating shrimp but was not good at peeling them. She always ended up with greasy hands and could not even get to the shrimp meat. Lucas took
