Chapter 285: Come Here. Let’s Have a Talk.
Two of them are standing very close. Daniel can smell the light fragrance from her, which makes him
frown because he isn’t used to it.
He wants pass from the other side, but is stopped by another arm of Stella.
He says in a cold voice, “There is no need.”
“You simply don’t want to explain, or there is really something going on between you and her?” Stella
presses.
Before, in the diner, she was angry. But a while later, she calms down. After some thought, she thinks
she knows about Daniel’s temperament very well. Besides, the other night in the hotel, it didn’t look like
he had the other woman at all.
“Whatever you think.”
Whatever she thinks?
His cold voice without ups and downs makes Stella angry.
She pokes her finger at Daniel’s chest, “Daniel Lou! Can’t you just say more words to explain to me?
Will you die if you do that?”
“Was it me that caused our break-up? Your mother is to blame for it! If you had helped me just a little
bit, things would have been different...”
Daniel grabs her arms and turns around, pressing her on the pool wall. His eyes look ferocious.
“Why did you take her money?”
“Because...” Brianna threatened her like that. Besides, she was pregnant and what she said didn’t
weigh much in the Scott family. If she had not taken the money, how could she give birth to the baby
and raise him?
“Stella, what more do you have to say for yourself?” Daniel sneers and stops her from saying anything
else, “Have you discussed with me before you do anything? Have you?”
Stella closed her eyes, “I just don’t want you to worry. And the letter...”
“Then I should say thank you then, Ms. Stella. Thank you for returning me my bright future back.”
Daniel’s face doesn’t show any expression, “Don’t talk about the letter anymore. What’s ended has
ended.”
He lets go of her and ascends the stairs to leave the swimming pool.
Four years ago, he was willing to accept his father’s terms and didn’t comballise. He arranged people
to help Stella secretly. He wanted to make her more important in the Scott family. But she flinched first.
All his hard work and fight look like a joke.
Damn it!
If he had known two of them would meet again, he would definitely have Leigh and Justin come back.
He would never have set foot in Yorkshire!
Stella, who is in the swimming pool, keeps breathing hard.
She thinks there is something wrong with her mind. How can she fall in love with such a stubborn man
and even bear his child!
Luckily, her son Chandler is half like her. She raises him well. If Chandler is like Daniel, he won’t be
able to find a girlfriend when he grows up.
Lily and Louis spend the whole afternoon in the billiard room.
Thanks to such a teacher as Louis, Lily quickly turns from a green hand to a junior player. She wins
many things from him.
During dinner, only Lily, Louis and Stella are present.
Leigh follows Jessie everywhere. They two seem to be in the card room. Louis says Daniel is attending
to some business in the room. He will bring him dinner later.
Lily sees from Stella’s upset face that she had a quarrel with Daniel. But she is in no place to ask too
much.
After dinner, Louis brings packed dinner back to the room. Daniel is still working on business. Louis
asks, “Daniel, you don’t look good. Did you quarrel with Ms. Stella?”
Daniel answers coldly, “No!”
Louis, “...”
Judging from the face and tone, Louis is sure that they argued earlier.
Seeing Louis changing his clothes, Daniel frowns and asks, “What? Are you going out again?”
“There is a ball at eight. And some other fun activities.” Louis removes the crystal cuff links, “Lily wants
to go and so I am going too.”
Daniel’s face darkens and he says in an angry voice, “Does the Smith Group belong to me? Why am I
the only one working? And you are all revolving around women and dancing!”
“I am just afraid that you are too bored, so I give you some work to distract your attention.” Louis says
in a lazy voice, “How about you come with us too? There must be many pretty women in the ball.”
Daniel sneers, “Only you guys will enjoy such boring activities!”
Louis shrugs.
He doesn’t like it either. But Lily wants to go, so he must go too. He can’t bear to watch his wife dancing
with other men.
At this moment, a knocking comes up.
Seeing Daniel still sitting in the chair, Louis goes to answer the door.
It’s Stella.
Stella looks at Louis’ outfit and asks smilingly, “You have changed your clothes. Are you going to the
ball room?”
“Yeah. Lily wants to have some fun there.” Louis says that he is ready to go and doesn’t need to go in
to get anything else. He asks Stella to go in. And then he walks away, “After you two finish chatting,
you can come to the ball room and have some fun too.”
Stella nods.
After Louis leaves, she immediately locks the door and walks to the bedroom.
Noticing the movements, Daniel raises his head. Seeing it is her, he asks with a cold face, “Ms. Stella,
do you want anything from me?”
“Yes!” Stella removes her wind coat and tosses it on the couch. She is wearing a thin sweater inside,
and her fine figure is exposed under the light.
“Come here. Let’s have a talk.”
Daniel lowers his head again and keeps on working on the documents, “If you want something, just say
it.”
“Daniel, I asked you to come here.” Stella stresses her tone and grabs the bottom of her sweater with
hands, “Or I will remove one piece of clothing at a time. And if I am naked, I won’t leave.”
“...”
“One.” Seeing Daniel not moving, Stella removes her sweater without hesitation. And her light-purple
bra is showed.
“Two.” She removes her dress.
Hearing the sound of clothing touching ground, Daniel raises his head with a cold face. Now Stella is
only wearing a bra and an underwear. There is a layer of fine hair covering her body, and she is fair
enough to glow. From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Three.” Stella reaches her hands for the bra and is about to remove it too.
Daniel walks to her with a serious face. He grabs the wind coat and tosses it to her body. Then he sits
on the couch.
“You should have listened to me earlier. Why do you need me to push you?” Stella puts on the wind
coat casually and sits beside Daniel. Her legs are folded and the bottom of the wind coat slides away,
showing her slim legs.
She turns on her phone and plays a video tape. It is a conversation between her and Daniel’s mother.
That day, after hearing about the letter from Justin, Stella went to talk with Daniel’s mother. And she
turned on the recorder so as to have Daniel’s mother admit what she had done and record it.
After hearing several minutes of the recording, Daniel becomes quite serious and his face darkens.
Stella says, “I knew you were getting a ballotion, so I took your mother’s money and said I would break
up with you to mollify her and your father. After I left, I wrote a letter immediately and had it sent to you.
In the letter, I said I would wait for you to come back no matter how long it would take. But the letter
was replaced by her before it reached you.”
“The letter was replaced...” Daniel clenches his fists.
Now that he thinks about it, many things do seem suspicious. The language in the letter is too sharp to
be written by Stella.
“I didn’t know that a letter would cause some many years of misunderstanding either.” Stella says with
a sad smile, “When we met again in the hospital, I thought you were angry because you blamed me for
not discussing the matter with you in advance.”
“If it was not because Justin told me, we might never be able to resolve the misunderstanding.”
“Yes. I read the letter and thought you had found someone better.” Daniel says.
Who knows it has always been his mother who stirs up things and makes them misunderstand each
other.
For the first time, he hates his family so much.
“If I had found someone better, I would have left secretly. Why would I tell you?” Stella rolls her eyes,
“For someone with such a low EQ like you, I don’t know how many women will dupe you in the
business community.”
