After regret filled Erin’s eyes, his brow furrowed deeply. He walked up to Stella, crouched down, and gently patted her back, “What’s wrong with you?”
Stella covered her uncomfortable stomach and glared at him angrily, “The things you make are not only disgustingly bad but also undercooked.”
Erin was taken aback for a moment, seemingly not expecting Stella to be as picky as before about the things he made. A pleased smile gradually appeared on his lips, “Then, will you make something for me tomorrow?”
Stella turned her head away, ignoring Erin, but he leaned over to her ear and softly coaxed her, “The blueberry pie you make is my favorite Will you make it for me tomorrow?”
Stella, covering her stomach, somehow subconsciously nodded, “Hmm.”
It was for the sake of her own stomach. She couldn’t just eat the junk food and dark cuisine Erin made for the whole month Seeing her agree, Erin was extremely happy. He cupped her face and kissed her several times, “You’re so good”
After the kiss, he reached for Stella’s wrist and said, “You’re so obedient, you deserve a reward. I’ll reward you by not using this thing tonight”
He threw the handcuffs to the side and picked up a towel, helping Stella take a bath After washing her, he massaged her gently, his movements as gentle as if he was caressing the most precious treasure in the world. leming against the edge of the bathtub, occasionally raised her eyes and glanced at her reflection in the mirror. The face in the sifas long as she cooperated, he would be happy to take of this kind of Erin. She felt like she had succeeded in getting revenge, but at the same time, she hadn’t succeeded because she was still entangled with him.
Erin carried Stella back to the master bedroom and placed her on the bed. He turned to the side, propped his forehead with one hand, and stared at Stella who had closed her eyes.
Taking advantage of the soft moonlight, the man traced Stella’s features with his fingers and softly spoke, “Stella, when you were young, did you only like me?”
Stella had answered this question before, but this time she didn’t bother responding to him.
Erin didn’t mind and continued to talk about the past on his own, “I thought you liked that guy named Mason…”
Back then, she had a close relationship with that guy named Mason. He would escort her to and from school every day, they would often joke and laugh together, and they even made plans to attend the same university. Erin pretended not to notice every time.
Karen really liked Mason and often invited him to their house. She even brought Mason into Stella’s room to let them have some alone time. After spending so much time together, Mason was able to freely come and go in the Simpson family. Erin had caught them a few times, being all lovey-dovey. He calkin’t stand it and scolded them a few times. Karen would come out to mediate, saying that Mason would be Stella’s future husband and that he should be nicer to his brother-in-law.
Back then, Erin felt really uncomfortable when she heard those words, but she didn’t understand why she felt that way.
On Stella’s eighteenth birthday, Karen told Erin that Stella would be traveling to another country with Mason tonight.
The discomfort in Erin’s heart gradually turned into resentment, as he always thought that if someone else touched his Stella, he would be furious.
He sent people to intercept Mason’s ship and had Stella pulled down from it, just to scare her a little. Little did he know that those people would actually act for real…
At that time, he was in the car, unable to see the dim environment under the thick car tint, and couldn’t hear the distant cries for help. He thought his people were just scaring Stella, but he never expected..
Looking back, Erin deeply regretted it. It was his recklessness and immaturity, and he blamed the butler for calling him away with an urgent phone call, otherwise, in such a long time, he would have noticed tha something was wrong…
When he was young, he thought that this was a way to punish Stella, but he didn’t expect that the person being punished would be himself. Even though he later dealt with those people, he still couldn’t forget the scene of seeing Stella covered in injuries when he returned…
Thinking back to that time, Erin’s heart trembled. He instinctively held Stella tightly and whispered in her ear, filled with guilt, “Stella, I’m sorry…”
Each apology made Stella tighten her grip on his hand, even though she didn’t know exactly what he was apologizing for. But to matter what it was, she couldn’t accept his apologies.
Feeling Stella’s hatred, Erin leaned in again and gently kissed her lips, saying, “I will treat you well, I promise to treat you well in the future…”
Stella still didn’t open her eyes or respond to his words. She just pushed his hand away, turned to the side, and gazed at the moonlight outside the window.
Time passed, and Erin approached her again, embracing her. “Stella, if we could go back to the day of your eighteenth birthday, I would listen to your confession carefully…”
Stella interrupted Erin directly, “If we could go back to that day, I would stab you to death with a knife…”
Erin stopped speaking, slowly withdrawing his words. After about ten minutes, a sigh of helplessness came from behind him. “Im sorry…
Stella remained silent, staring at the sea outside the window, lost in thought for an hour, two hours, three hours, until she saw a brightly lit speedboat approaching the island in the distance….
Stella immediately realized that it was Rosalyn and the others who had found her. A glimmer of hope rose in her heart, but she didn’t want to wake Erin. She quietly uncovered the corner of the blanket and slowly moved towards the edge of the bed.
Perhaps because of the previous night’s experience, Stella didn’t dare to make any sudden movements. She stayed by the bed for a long time, then turned back and looked at Erin, waiting silently. Seeing that he seemed to be really asleep, she finally dared to get up She still didn’t put on any shoes, quietly and slowly moved towards the door. She didn’t move until she walked out of the door, crouching in place, peering through the crack, looking at the man inside, waiting for a long time, but he never came out. Slowly, she stood up…
After she left the mansion, the speedboat also stopped. When Stella saw the figure coming down from the speedboat, she was startled. She didn’t even care if she stepped on weeds or thorns, and quickly ran towards Henry,
Henry’s heart hung in the balance until he saw Stella on this small island. He quickly approached her, wanting to embrace her, but Stella pushed him away. “Go quickly, you can’t handle Erin alone, go back and bring more people…”
Stella was very clear-headed, but Henry insisted on taking her with him after seeing her. “Stella, don’t be afraid, come with me now Erin won’t catch up…” alive lister. He had planned to sneak onto the island in the middle of the night and find Stella, but he didn’t expect her to run out as soon as he arrived. This was even better, there was no need to search anymore, he could just take her away.
Henry pulled Stella and quickly ran towards the beach. Just as they were about to get on the speedboat, a gunshot rang out, followed by a bullet that swiftly passed through the speedboat.
Both of them, standing in the water, turned their heads at the sound of the gunshot, looking at the person who fired the shot….
Erin, wearing a white shirt, raised the gun in his hand. After blowing away the smoke from the muzzle, he walked slowly towards them…
The moment Stella saw Erin, she reacted first. She pushed Henry away and said, “You need to go!”
Stella was afraid that Erin would harm Henry. She grabbed Henry’s arm and pushed him onto the speedboat. After all, Erin had a gun, and who knew if that lunatic would shoot Henry again….. Henry didn’t want to be a coward. He stood tall in front of Erin and tightly held Stella’s hand in his palm.
Erin’s obscure gaze fell on their intertwined fingers. He used to not understand the uncomfortable feeling it represented, but now he knew all too well.
So, he had been jealous for a long time. If he had known earlier, would they not have reached this point today….
Erin slowly moved his gaze away, past Henry, and onto Stella’s pale face. “We agreed on one month, and it’s only been one day…”
He used the gun in his hand to lift Stella’s chin. “Are you so eager to leave me?”
Henry pulled Stella away and stood in front of her. “Erin, don’t bully women!” tely disregarded Henry and heard his nagging voice. Only then did he move his gaze away from Stella’s face and look at Henry. “Do you want me to deal with you?”
Erin raised the gun in his hand and hit Henry’s temple. With one punch, Henry’s body went limp.
Seeing Henry fall into the water, Stella hurriedly went to help him. Her anxious and panicked state was seen as ironic by Erin.
He also crouched down and grabbed Stella’s hair, forcing her to look at him. “I just asked you a question, and you haven’t answered me yet.”
Stella originally wanted to continue arguing with him, but seeing the unconscious Henry, anger surged within her. “Yes, I can’t wait to leave you. I don’t want to be with you for even a second. You make me sick so sick!”
The man crouching in the water gradually stiffened, and his blood ran cold. As the despair in his heart grew, he suddenly laughed coldly. “You feel disgusted with me, but you’re happy with Henry, right?”
His malicious gaze slowly shifted to the man Stella was carefully holding in her arms. He had never felt such jealousy before, and it suddenly erupted from the depths of his heart, making him seem like a devil from hell.
Under the bright moonlight, amidst the surging waves, Erin grabbed Henry by the collar and lifted him directly from Stella’s embrace. He then dragged Henry towards the deep sea. s s Stella hurriedly followed, but the waves crashed down and the sand beneath her feet retreated. As she struggled to catch up, Erin had already thrown Henry into the sea. Watching the rolling waves instantly swallow Henry, Stella was frightened. Without any hesitation, she jumped in as well.
Her actions undoubtedly stimulated Erin even more. He aimed the gun in his hand at Henry several times, but each time he saw the figure desperately trying to save him, he clenched his teeth and held back… In the end, this lunatic threw away the gun in his hand and jumped into the water. He pulled the exhausted Stella out and, seeing that she refused to let go of Henry’s clothes, Erin, despite his anger, freed up one hand and grabbed Henry’s collar. He then carried both of them back…
At the moment they reached the shore, Erin collapsed tiredly on the beach, while Stella didn’t even look at him once. She was only extremely worried and checked Henry’s body from head to toe. Henry was lucky because being unconscious allowed his body to float. So he didn’t choke on water, but being unconscious for a long time was also not good for a person.
When Stella pinched Henry’s acupoint, trying to wake him up, Erin grabbed her wrist. “Are you only worried about him?”
Stella scoffed coldly. “I’m not worried about him. Are you worried about him?”
