Chapter 363

Chapter 363:

He had seen through all this. She was not someone who would give up everything. At that moment, he had a glimmer of hope that she would still refuse. What surprised him was that she agreed.

Perhaps he had anticipated such a day to come. Thus, when Stella said, “I am sorry,” he didn’t feel surprised or sad. Instead, he felt a sense of relief. Sometimes, if you force others, you may not end up happy. People are often bound by their consciences and can’t shake them off.

He remembered the first time he saw Stella—the day Isabella moved in with him and Sophia into the Richard family’s house. The little girl carried a big school bag on her back. She had a stubborn look on her face, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. The ponytail swayed when she walked, making her look like a carefree and simple child.

Later, he gradually became more familiar with her...

It was only then that he realized her childhood wasn’t very happy. Her father’s neglect and her mother’s sudden death had dealt her a huge blow. She couldn’t grow up carefree like other children. Since she was a child, she had always been introverted. She rarely spoke and often appeared dull and silly.

She gave people the impression that she was very easy to bully, which was why Isabella and Sophia had bullied her so arrogantly for so long. Stella never fought back and always remained silent, as if everything they did was foolish.

Gradually, she grew up and became a graceful young woman. The concept of right and wrong became clearer in her heart.

Stella became increasingly eager to be independent and to leave the so-called home. However, fate had brought her too much suffering, and it had lasted for so long...

It seemed she had never truly lived for herself. So let it be. This time, she would decide for herself.

To be honest, he was not lying, and his words were not just an excuse to comfort Stella...

He hoped to help Stella, but at the same time, he was eager to see a satisfactory outcome in his relationship with her. Stella always thought he was trying to make up for her guilt, but to be honest, it wasn’t that.

He had his own selfish motives, and he felt there was nothing shameful about falling in love with someone. He had seen through himself thoroughly and had never regretted falling in love with Stella.

The wedding was canceled, and Violet was very satisfied with Stella’s realization. She patted Stella on the shoulder and said, “Little girl, you have finally come to your senses.” Stella didn’t want to say anything more, so she just sat quietly to the side.

“Well, Miss Bryant, Stella is feeling sad; let’s not talk about it anymore.” Emily sat on one side, leisurely eating an apple while laughing and joking.

“Eat your apple. Is there anything wrong with my words? I am warning Stella. What do you even know?” Violet shot her a cold glance.

“Okay, okay, I won’t argue with you. I’m afraid I’ll be kicked out by you.” Emily rolled her eyes.

“It doesn’t matter if you’re scared or not. I’m not afraid that you’ll turn against me. I will certainly crush you.” Violet exuded an aura of confidence, unafraid of anyone when she was being assertive.

“You...”

Emily choked on an apple and could only roll her eyes while clutching her throat.

“Alright, the two of you... can’t you give me some peace?” Stella was fed up with those two long-winded women. She got up and went to the bedroom, leaving Emily and Violet sitting on the sofa, looking at each other.

“It’s all your fault. Why did you have to mention the wedding and Tristan? You made Stella angry!” Emily, who had finally swallowed the apple, wore an expression that said, “I know.”

“F*ck you. If you hadn’t fanned the flames, how could Stella be so upset?” Violet shot back with the same intensity. “When did I fan the flames? It was you who was talking nonsense!”

“Am I talking nonsense? I was just telling the truth.” The two bickered back and forth while Stella covered her ears with a pillow in the bedroom. Initially, she was upset, but the two irritating women talking nearby only made her more annoyed. No wonder it was sometimes said that one should never offend a woman.

Women were like little sheep when they were gentle... however, once they got angry, they turned into violent lionesses. Women were most terrible when they were chattering, and they were guaranteed to haunt you invisibly.

Therefore, it was better not to provoke a woman. Just then, when Stella was lost in thought, her cell phone rang at the most inconvenient time. The caller ID showed it was RK.

“Hello?” Stella felt helpless as she picked up RK’s call. She was genuinely afraid he would threaten her again by jumping off a building or hanging himself.

“Hey, Stella, do you know what day it is today?”

“Friday. Don’t you have your own mobile phone?” Stella replied, looking at her phone with a helpless and disdainful expression.

“What about tomorrow? What day will it be tomorrow?” That kind of question made Stella want to slap him.

“A Saturday. RK, are you out of your mind?” Stella asked angrily.

“What should you do on Saturday? Let me remind you that tomorrow is a weekend for Adrian too...”
