Chapter 639 Could The Secret Actually Be…
“Isn’t this because of your special circumstances? We distribute our workload and cooperate with each other, isn’t that good?” Stella asked.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“Do you think that this is a small matter? You are directly offending Quinn and confronting him head-on. His power and influence is something beyond your imagination. He could even…” Bellamy paused for a second. He was going to talk about Jasper, but he stopped and turned away. He was angry and his chest was heaving violently.
“I have many people around me who will protect me. Nothing will happen to me. Don’t be angry anymore,” Stella held Bellamy’s hand.
Bellamy shoved her hand away, “It is easier to dodge an open bullet than one in the dark. If he insists on killing you, you may be able to escape it once or twice, but you can’t hide from it forever. You know the strength of his subordinates. One cut and your head will fall to the ground. You are not alone anymore. You have a child inside you.”
“But, I will go crazy if you ask me to watch you risk your life while I stay home at do nothing. I would rather die with you than to live a life without doing anything,” Stella’s eyes turned red.
She was so miserable when she thought that he was dead at that time. Every night, her heart ached so much that she could not fall asleep. Even if she did fall asleep, she would only sleep for a short time. She missed him a lot. She wanted nothing more than to be able to see him. She missed him so bad that her heart ached.
Waking up was torture for her, sleeping was the same. She would fall asleep with tears streaming down her face.
She did not want to experience something like that ever again.
“If I die, I want to die before you. I cannot stand to watch you die. Could you promise me this?” Stella choked as she said that.
At that moment, there seemed to be a hammer hitting him heavily in his heart. He trembled as he reached out to hold her behind her neck and held her in his arms.
He knew that if he did not make it out alive again, she would really die this time around.
He envied Jasper, but his heart ached for her too. Although it was a lie, although he was just a substitute, he still wanted to take good care of her for the rest of his life. He lowered his head and kissed her heavily on her cheek. He really wished that time would freeze at that moment.
Stella hugged him tightly too. She then closed her eyes.
He made up his mind at that moment and said, “Stella, could I use the identity of Bellamy to pursue you? Marry me, so I could protect you in the open.”
“No,” She looked at him anxiously. “I have already confronted Quinn, so you have to stay in the dark. If you have nothing to do with me, they will not do anything to you too. They would only think that you are similar to Jasper. If you have any contact with me, they will easily treat you as Jasper,” Stella analyzed rationally.
“Let them be then. It doesn’t matter. We’ll see if they have the ability to come for me.”
“Jasper, you have to be more rational. We have to think about our future. We must not take the wrong step, not even one. Things are not that bad right now. Quinn may hate me a lot right now, but he won’t kill me. His energy is focused on Sean for now,” Stella said.
“Sean is very smart. He has made you a target so that he could stay in the dark in peace.”
“I believe Quinn has already understood my message. I have told him that I have the recording of Mrs. Zane to testify against him. He will not pay much attention to me unless I release the recording. Besides, it won’t be that easy for him to kill me. On the contrary, as long as he makes a mistake, all his efforts will be in vain.” Stella was trying to convince Bellamy.
Bellamy’s eyes were as dark as obsidian.
Quinn had sent someone to assassinate Jasper. He felt guilty. No matter how hard he tried to pretend with Stella, he would not let his guard down easily.
He used to hate Frederick and Allen. He always felt that they had their eyes on Stella. However, for Stella’s safety, he had no choice but to abandon his jealousy.
For him, her safety was the most important thing.
“Stella, you are quite good. Right now, they are afraid of you because you are Jasper’s wife. If you could find a new boyfriend, then their stance against you will be greatly reduced,” Bellamy said earnestly.
“If I can’t have you, I won’t find anyone else.”
“It’s fake. Only we both will know the truth. We are just going to let them loosen their vigilance towards you,” Bellamy held her shoulders.
“I don’t want to hurt other people’s feelings just to save myself,” Stella refused. She had been hurt before, so she knew that she must not hurt others, especially those who loved her.
“I will make the necessary arrangements. Those people will know that it is fake, so they won’t fall in love with you. You don’t need to deceive anyone, alright? Besides, with their protection, it will be easier for us to meet, and we will not be limited to just this place,” Bellamy persuaded her.
That way, she did not need to lie or hurt others. If that was the case, then she was willing to consider it.
“Okay then. However, I am pregnant right now. Won’t it seem deliberate if I were to look for a boyfriend right now?” She asked worriedly.
“Don’t worry. I will get it done. After all, your relationship with Jasper was not revealed for too long, so it isn’t strange that you two have not had too deep a relationship,” Bellamy rubbed Stella’s hair.
Stella nodded. She felt a little tired.
“Go to sleep. I will wake you up when we arrive at the manor,” he said softly as he helped her to put on her helmet.
“Don’t let others recognize you. It is very dangerous. You should leave after you send me to the manor. Don’t come over tonight, it will be dangerous for you. You must be tired too. If you are too tired, you won’t be able to think straight, and you won’t be able to control your body,” Stella said with distress.
“Okay, I will go back once I send you to the manor. I will come to you tomorrow when I am free. I still have orders to give them once I return,” Bellamy replied. He then started the car.
Stella closed her eyes. She fell asleep after a while.
When Bellamy reached the manor, the security guards came out immediately.
He lowered his voice and ordered in a hoarse voice, “Your Madam is asleep. Get a car and send her back.”
“Right away,” The security guard immediately went to start a car.
Stella was only taking a light nap. She opened her eyes and realized that she had reached the manor. She stretched her limbs and felt good.
“I’ll be leaving then,” she told Bellamy.
“Don’t stay up too late. You are pregnant, so you must take good care of your health,” Bellamy said worriedly.
Stella nodded, “You should rest early too. Goodnight.”
“Okay,” Bellamy answered. He only left after he was sure that she had gotten in the car and left.
Stella returned to her room. At the thought of Lynette’s situation, her heart sank. She then called Elvis, “How’s Lynette?”
“The operation was a success, and her life is no longer in danger. It is just that half of her face is seriously disfigured. I am just worried that she will not be able to bear it when she wakes up,” Elvis said worriedly.
“Tell her that we will find her the best plastic surgeon to ensure that she would look her best. Stabilizing her emotions should be the priority. Once her emotions are stable, it will be easier for her to recover. She doesn’t have to worry about me, I am fine. Just let her take good care of herself,” Stella said.
“Oh, Madam, about that, I suddenly had an idea, but I don’t know if it is appropriate,” Elvis wanted to speak, but he stopped on second thought.
“Go on.”
“Could it be that what Mrs. Zane wanted to say is that Director Milton’s assassination has something to do with Quinn?”
