Chapter 78 The Counterattack Begins
She had always been cold.
She did not simply trust people and did not let people approach her easily. Sometimes, her heart was hard and almost ruthless, but when she was gentle, it was unusually tender. She could do anything for the people she cared about.
Meeting Frederick Addington was the calamity in her life.
A person who destroyed her light.
When she met Frederick Addington for the first time, he treated her very well and gave her everything she wanted. He helped her arrange work and treat her mother’s illness.
At that time, she really felt that she was the happiest person in the world.
She once suspected why did she win Frederick Addington’s favor. After all, even if she was young, pretty and smart, she was very poor and had a crazy mother.
But because it was her first love, she was confused and devoted to it wholeheartedly.
Until Frederick Addington’s lover kidnapped her.
She also knew that it was Frederick Addington who arranged it on purpose.
She looked at Frederick Addington and his lover doing that kind of thing.
She was in so much pain that she could not breathe. She felt as if she was going to die.
On that day when she was in despair, she was raped too.
She forced Frederick Addington to get married with her.
Instead of saying that she forced him, maybe Frederick Addington already prepared for hell to wait for her to jump into.
She jumped into hell as he wished.
She couldn’t believe in love.
If there was no love, it was impossible for her to be hurt so badly.
Didn’t she learn her lesson from what happened to her mother yet?
“Stella, what’s wrong?” Eli Wayne heard Stella Grace’s cry and opened the door and came in.
“It’s alright. I had a nightmare,” Stella Grace said in a choked voice. She did not want Eli Wayne to worry, so she hid under the blanket.
“I’ll stay with you.” Eli Wayne lifted the blanket and lay with Stella Grace, holding her in her arms.
Stella Grace burst into tears.
It wasn’t that she didn’t have anything, she still had friends.
Eli Wayne felt that Stella Grace’s body was trembling. She was also sad and her eyes turned red. “Stella, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.”
Stella Grace shook her head and turned to look at Eli Wayne. “It’s not your fault. I was just recalling my past.”
“It will be fine in the future. After you divorce, you can be with Jasper.” Eli Wayne comforted her.
“Eli, if you really want the best for me, don’t match Jasper and I together anymore.” Stella Grace said very seriously.
“Why? I think he has good qualities in all aspects. If you marry him, your life will be much better.” Eli Wayne said in confusion.
“My mother was a beautiful woman when she was young. She was very attractive. My mother was exactly like what they described in those novels. She was an orphan, but she was very smart. When she was young, she became a housekeeper of a rich family, and the rich young master fell in love with her and she successfully became a young madam in the family.
However, the gap between their statuses, soon became an obstacle between them.
My mother loved the rich young master very much. The rich young master had his own ideals. His ambition was already on his official career.
My mother felt panic. She had no identity, background, and connections. She could only restrain herself with her own love.
One, two, three times. She won, but how many times can she win.
The rich young master met a woman who was more suitable for him outside. The woman and the rich young master were a good match for each other. They had the same dream and ambition. The more important thing was that the woman had background and power, which could help the rich young master to go up to a higher level.
Therefore, the rich young master eventually betrayed their love and became a cruel executioner.” Stella Grace said quietly with tears flowing.
“Not all people are the same. I don’t think Jasper is that kind of person,” Eli Wayne said.
“I believe that the rich young master has loved my mother, but he will not ignore his family’s opposition to marry my mother. However, impulsive love can’t last a lifetime. Jasper and I are nothing. We have known each other for more than a month. The faster passion comes, the faster it disappears. I don’t want to have a passionate love affair. I want to live a peaceful life. At least, I don’t want my heart to be hurt.” Stella Grace said rationally and sniffled.
Eli Wayne fell silent.
She didn’t know what to say.
Stella Grace never mentioned her past to her.
No one knew how much was hidden in Stella Grace’s heart and how much pain she had endured by herself.
“I see. No matter what decision you make, I will support you. From now on, I will not make a decision on my own. I’m sorry, Stella.” Eli Wayne said seriously.
“I will never blame you. I know that you did it for me.” Stella Grace smiled. She looked pale, but smiled beautifully.
Eli Wayne took a deep breath.
She thought that Stella’s analysis was right.
She just felt that Jasper Milton was good, but she had not thought about so many things related to their background.
Thinking about it now. No matter how much honor he had enjoyed, he would have to experience as much slander and damage.
How many people could withstand the damage?
She seemed to have grown a lot and learned a lot from Stella Grace overnight.
When it was almost dawn, the heavy rain finally stopped.
Stella Grace and Eli Wayne also fell asleep until Stella Grace’s alarm woke them up.
She had a severe headache and did not have enough sleep. However, she had to go to work no matter how hard she tried.
Stella Grace pressed the alarm clock, looked at Eli Wayne, who was still sleeping, and got up from the bed.
She brushed her teeth, washed her face, went to the kitchen to cook porridge, and made two sunny side ups.
She also went out to buy two sets of steamed buns and went back.
Eli Wayne also got up from her room and scratched her messy hair. “What time is it?”
“7:30, it’s time to get up and have breakfast. Let’s go to work together.” Stella Grace said with a smile. Her tone was very gentle as if the pain last night had not happened.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
“Stella, you are too nice. I love you so much. Don’t get married for the rest of your life. Just live with me.” Eli Wayne said with a smile.
“Go brush your teeth and comb your hair.” She put the steamed buns on the table and went into the kitchen to serve porridge.
When her cell phone rang, she saw the caller ID. It was Felicia Chuck and so she answered it.
“Stella, I’ve done what you want. I’ve sent it to you. Please check it out. I hope you won’t let me down. You’d better get the divorce as soon as possible.” Felicia Chuck said proudly.
Stella Grace put the porridge on the table and turned on the computer. She saw the video sent by Felicia Chuck.
Felicia Chuck had played some tricks, her face and the important parts were censored.
Frederick Addington, however, was clear, and their conversation could be heard clearly.
If it was three years ago, if she saw such a video and heard such a dialogue, she would have been absolutely distressed.
But now, she just felt relieved.
She had given up on Frederick Addington completely.
She didn’t care about him at all, nor did she feel any pain in her heart.
Stella Grace copied a few of the videos into her mobile phone – may the counterattack begin!
