Chapter 55 No Hardships for His Woman
Observing Stella's somewhat downcast demeanor, Liam smiled and tenderly brushed her long hair
aside. "What's wrong?"
She let out a soft sigh and forced a bitter smile.
"At the moment, I don't have a good plan to strike back at them." She murmured, "I don't want to make
this a public matter. After all, it's not very dignified... People like them can engage in wrongdoing and
continue living their lives unaffected. But I feel powerless, unable to even scratch the surface of their
impunity."
"For now, I can only pretend like nothing happened and endure it. Once I become strong enough to
confront them, I'll settle the score!"
Liam gazed at Stella and smiled softly. He understood that she was not a woman easily subdued. Not
only was she not weak, but her preferences were clear. She had a resilient spirit and sought retribution
for injustices.
She could maintain her composure in dire circumstances, demonstrating both the resolve and bravery
to stand up when required. In many ways, she was his female counterpart.
As he contemplated this, a proud smile tugged at his lips. That's exactly how my woman should be!
Having survived an assassination attempt, he had been enduring all this time. He even altered his
name and identity, seeking refuge in Eldoria, all with the ultimate goal of eventually bringing down
Christopher and his faction.
Although Liam could endure, he did not want his woman to go through such hardships.
"Honey, let me ask you something." He chuckled. "If you possessed superpowers right now, how would
you handle those who have hurt you?"
"What?" Stella widened her eyes at him.
"Since we're just having a casual conversation, let's let our imaginations run wild." He looked at her.
"Just imagine, how would you want to punish them?"
She blinked and gave a slightly goofy smile. "It's not so much about punishment, but I do wish for
karma to catch up with them! They should feel all the pain I went through and then disappear from my
life, forever and ever!"
Liam nodded and whispered in her ear, "As you wish."
"What did you say?"
"Nothing." He helped Stella lie down. "Are you tired? Get some rest. I'll go buy you some bagels."
As she fell asleep, he quietly left the ward.
Outside, Oliver stood there with an apologetic expression, eager to seek forgiveness.
He, too, had a leg injury, limping and leaning on crutches with his head wrapped in a bandage. Caleb
stood by his side, offering support. The two had been waiting outside the ward for quite a while.
Liam glared at Oliver, his gaze piercing and intense.
"Noah, I'm genuinely... sorry." Oliver lamented. "But I swear to you, if I had even thought about touching
Stella that night, I would've been hit by a car the moment I set foot outside!"
"You've already been hit by a car once." Liam icily continued, "Your luck is truly exceptional that you've
managed to survive."Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Oliver was taken aback for a moment before chuckling.
"Noah, I intended to escort her home that night, but I had to put on a show in front of those two
b*stards. In case..."
"No need to explain. I understand."
Liam's face was cold.
Christopher could send assassins anytime, and Eldoria was no longer a haven. If anyone with
malicious intent targeted Stella, it could complicate things for him. Therefore, caution was paramount.
The fewer people aware of his connection with her, the safer it would be.
"Did you guys hear what she just told me?"
While Oliver was stunned, Caleb was quicker to react and immediately asked, "Is it about punishing
Benjamin and Daniel?"
Liam nodded.
Caleb found himself both amused and exasperated. "Noah, are you seriously considering following her
suggestion?"
"Why not?" Liam's gaze intensified as he raised his voice. "If you guys won't handle it, should I take
care of it myself?"
"We will. We'll definitely do it!" Oliver was eager to redeem himself. "Anyone Stella doesn't want to see
will never appear in front of her again!"
Liam acknowledged with a grunt, then confidently left to buy bagels with hands folded behind his back.
Speechless, Caleb looked at Oliver. "Do you think... Noah will still return to Emberfall?"
"I'm not concerned about that." Oliver smiled. "What worries me is Stella's stubbornness. How will she
react if she finds out Noah isn't Liam one day?"
