Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Stella was so shocked that she got out of bed and walked to the window, “Are you saying that someone will try to assassinate Christian tomorrow?”

She was really shocked. The plan had changed so fast.

“I think so. Don’t you want him to die?” Frederick asked suspiciously.

She did.

After all, Christian did kill Jasper’s parents and family, and he had once tried to kill Jasper too.

She and Jasper would continue to be in danger if Christian were to stay alive.

However, there was a kind of indescribable trance in her heart, knowing that he was about to die soon. It felt too surreal.

“I’m just a little shocked,” Stella said lightly.

“I suppose it’s reasonable, but unexpected nonetheless.

Because of your hard work, Christian was dropped from his position, and the Black Ferrets sensed his incompetence.

He will never become President and you had exposed his selfishness and inferiority.

In his hands, the Black Ferrets had no future, no ideals, and they were merely used as a tool.

Without the Black Ferrets’ support, Christian would be like a stray dog, wandering without any purpose,” Frederick laughed and said, his tone carrying a hint of comfort.

He didn’t want Stella to feel that she was weak in front of her enemies.

“You…” Stella hesitated for a moment, and complicated thoughts flashed through her mind.

It seemed that the current Frederick didn’t care about anything either. Why were the Black Ferrets willing to follow him? There were definitely many things she still didn’t know about him.

Also, he was developing a superbug previously. Was he still doing that?

Christian probably didn’t develop the superbug, and she knew that Sean had nothing to do with it either. Therefore, was Frederick developing it by himself?

Was the thing that he developed the same as what Boris had given to her?

“What’s wrong?” Frederick asked.

Stella took a deep breath and asked, “Are you still working on the superbug that you tried developing the last time?”

Frederick chuckled. “Do you want me to develop it? If these things are used wisely, they could become the country’s most powerful weapon.”

“If not used wisely, it will be a disaster for humans,” Stella followed his words and said.

“Well, there won’t be any problem as long as you control it well. The superbug that I had developed previously is not contagious, However, I won’t study it if you don’t want me to,” Frederick said seriously.

Not contagious?

Then, it should be different from the one Boris’ had told her.

“Where are you now? Let’s meet, I have something to discuss with you,” Stella said in a low voice.

“Is it convenient for you to come out? It would be better if I come to you. After all, Christian isn’t a threat to me anymore,” Frederick spoke with certainty.

“Do you remember the place where we met the first time?” Stella asked.

“Your university,” Frederick said.

“Let’s meet there then. I’ll take the bus there on my own. Wait for me at the gate,” Stella said in a deep voice. She then opened the cabinet and picked out a large black jacket.

“It’s too dangerous for you to come out alone,” Frederick said worriedly.

“I reckon that Christian, Quinn, and Zoah are all busy at the moment. They don’t have time to deal with me. I will contact you again in about an hour,” Stella did not give Frederick a chance to speak and hung up the phone.

She put on the jacket, let down her hair, then wore a hat and a mask. Walking on the road, she looked just like an ordinary woman.

She then drove out from the secret passageway. When she got on the bus, her cell phone rang.

She looked at it and found that it was an anonymous number. She thought that it was Frederick, hence, she answered the phone, “I’ve already gotten on the bus. I’ll be there in half an hour.”

“Where are you going?” Bellamy sounded surprised. His voice was strained, as though he was suppressing his emotions. He asked again, “Where did you go?”

Stella was stunned and she immediately explained, “I have some matters to attend to.”

“What’s so important that you had to go out yourself?” Bellamy asked. His chest heaved violently and he was a little nervous. “Don’t you know how dangerous it is for you to go out alone? Where are you now? I’ll come and pick you up.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“It’s alright. I’ll be back soon,” Stella rejected him and said.

Bellamy could sense her coldness. There was anger in his heart, and he raised his voice, “Where on earth are you going?”

Stella took a deep breath.

Bellamy’s coercion was suffocating her, “I have an appointment with Frederick. I have something to deal with him.”

“What do you have to deal with him? Don’t forget that he is now being hunted by Christian. Do you want him to kill two birds with one stone?” Bellamy was furious.

“No, Christian is in a hurry to solve his own problems, so he wouldn’t have the mood to do anything else,” Stella refuted.

“I don’t want you to meet him. He is your ex-husband. I don’t think that you need to talk to him privately,” Bellamy expressed his thoughts directly.

“I’ll tell you the reason tomorrow. I’m hanging up now,” Stella was determined to go on her way.

“What? Are you not coming back today? I’ll wait for you in the library,” Bellamy said hurriedly.

“I’ll be back soon. Give me about two hours. I’ll hang up the phone first,” Stella said.

“Don’t hang up the phone,” Bellamy said.

Stella did not hang up the phone and remained silent.

“You’re trying to p*ss me off, aren’t you? You went out secretly to see your ex-husband. You knew that I don’t like him at all,” Bellamy frowned and said. He clenched his fists tightly and he held back the urge to curse.

Stella knew that she shouldn’t hide it from Jasper, but there were some things that she didn’t want to tell him.

“We won’t do anything. You’re the only one in my heart. Why don’t you trust me?” Stella said.

“It’s not like we haven’t seen Frederick’s tricks before. Who knows if he’d inject you with another virus. He would do anything to have you. What is so important that you had to meet with him in secret without anyone else with you?” Bellamy asked.

“Even if he injects me with a virus, I will not be threatened by him even if I had to die. Give me two hours. I will cook delicious food for you when I come back,” Stella said softly, hoping to coax him.

“You still won’t tell me where you are going, right?” Bellamy really was annoyed.

Stella did not speak.

He sneered. He finally understood how Tinley felt.

He loved Stella, hence, he was willing to risk everything just so that he could speak to her over the phone. Even if he had to hurt Tinley, he still had to protect Stella.

Tinley should have known that there was someone else in his heart. However, she loved him so much so that she started acting unreasonably and sought help from Samuel to pressure him.

Was Stella also trying to protect Frederick then?

“If it weren’t for me, you would still be with Frederick, wouldn’t you?” Bellamy asked coldly.

Stella sighed and felt a faint pain in her heart. She had hurt Jasper back then because she refused to explain her intentions and her actions to him at that time.

This time, she did not want to repeat the mistakes that she had made in the past.

She felt that it would be better if she was being truthful to him this time.

“Without you, I wouldn’t be alive. I am meeting with him because of the virus he developed in the past. You might not know this, but someone had given me the antidote to the biological weapon. Since he is a professional in this field, I want to ask him if he could help me develop the antidote,” Stella finally revealed the truth.
