Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 113 From Now On, I’d Protect You



The director was very efficient and booked her a flight to Sun City at 5:20 p. m.

Stella Grace went back to the Chuck family home to pack up her minimal baggage.

Felicia Chuck did not go to work today. When she saw Stella leave, dragging her luggage, she stepped forward to stop her. “Where are you going?”

“I don’t need to report to you where I go. Get out of the way,” Stella snapped.

“Frederick went to the United States for a business trip today. Don’t tell me you’re going to the United States with him?” Felicia asked suspiciously.

Stella smiled and said, “Felicia, have you lost your self-esteem? Where is your confidence? Where is your charm? Are you afraid that you, a rich young lady, will lose to me, a poor nobody?”

“How is it be possible for me to lose confidence? Frederick just established a new company and gave it to me. I’m the legal owner, the director of the company. That company is estimated to worth more than ten billion dollars now, how can I be afraid of losing to you?” Felicia mocked, “I’m just reminding you not to be too confident of yourself.”

“Then you live your life properly. Don’t worry, as long as you don’t come and mess with me, I’m not interested to destroy your stable life.” Stella walked past Felicia and got in the taxi.

Felicia was still worried.

She drove and trailed Stella.

Frederick Addington was indeed very kind to her. He gave her the company and also doted on her very much.

However, Frederick did not get intimate with her.

She always suspected that Frederick had been unfaithful.

However, she sent someone to investigate and found out that Frederick had no women outside.

If she were to guess who Frederick’s possible mistress was, she felt that Stella would be the only possibility.

She followed Stella to the airport.

She called Frederick on the phone.

“Frederick, have you arrived at the airport?”

“I’m on the way, and I’ll be there in ten minutes. What’s wrong? Do you miss me?” Frederick asked with a sly smile.

“I want to go with you,” Felicia said in a lovey-dovey manner.

Annoyance flashed across Frederick’s eyes.

Stella would not ask him about anything when they were together.

He did not like to be scrutinized or pestered by women all the time.

With a little more time, he would be able to achieve his plan.

“Okay, I’ll send someone to pick you up.” Frederick looked out of the window with excitement.

“Okay, muah.” Felicia hung up the phone.

She bought a hat, put on her glasses, and kept an eye on Stella.

Stella was reading in the bookstore.

She was reading a book on the psychology of micro-expressions. She thought it was good.

She paid and took the book, then went into the cafe. She ordered a cup of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, and read it quietly.

Felicia saw that Stella did not answer her phone, which meant that Frederick did not call her.

As a matter of fact, she already said that she would go to the United States with him. If Frederick were to go with Stella, she would definitely inform Stella not to go.

It seemed that she was overthinking.

“Why are you here?” Frederick asked, surprised, interrupting her sneaking.

Hearing Frederick’s voice, Felicia put on a sweet smile and took off her glasses. “I wanted to give you a surprise.”

“I’m sorry. There’s only shock but no joy. My people have gone to our house to pick you up. Who is he going to pick up if you are not at home?” Frederick was a little annoyed, and his tone was a little serious. He gave a call, “You don’t have to pick her up anymore.”

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Stella sitting in the cafe.

The cafe looked very romantic.

A lamp was lit in front of Stella,

like a faint watercolor painting.

Understanding dawned in Frederick’s charming eyes.

He now knew why Felicia Chuck suddenly appeared at the airport but told him that he was at home.

She was testing him.

Frederick’s mouth curled into a nasty, cold smile. He glared at the useless Felicia and asked, “Are you still going to the United States?”

“Of course, I want to take care of you.” Felicia held Frederick’s arm.

Frederick walked straight to the ticket office. Unintentionally, he turned around and stole a glimpse of Stella.

She did not notice them. Instead, she read the book quietly.

What was this feeling in his heart?

Stella Grace reached Sun City at half-past six in the evening.

The Discipline Inspection Institution of Sun City sent someone to pick her up.

A man and a woman came to pick her up. They held up a signboard with ‘Stella Grace’ written on it.

Stella walked towards them and said, “Hello, I’m Stella Grace.”

“I didn’t expect Inspector Grace to be such a beauty. Our director has arranged for dinner, we’ll fetch you there. My name is Lena Yard, you can call me Little Yard. His name is Eden Yard, you can just call him Old Yard.” Lena Yard introduced enthusiastically.

Stella smiled slightly and said, “After this, I will have to trouble you.”

“Not at all, it’s what we’re supposed to do. We’re not sure who you are investigating, Inspector Grace?” Lena smiled tentatively.

“Just taking a look. It’s just a routine inspection, a standard operating procedure.” Stella looked at Lena and said.

Lena’s eyes were twinkling. “I heard from the director that you were transferred directly. We didn’t even know it before this. We guess that there may be a target.”

“None for the time being. Perhaps after investigations, there would be,” Stella replied ambiguously.

They got in the car and headed to the most distinctive hotel in Sun City, Moonlight Restaurant.

“Our Moonlight Restaurant is the oldest restaurant in Sun City. There are two intertwining trees in the restaurant. It has hundreds of years of history. Many young men and women will come here to make a wish. It is said that the sorcery works. Inspector Grace is so young, and seems like you’re still unmarried. Do you want to give it a try?” Lena said eagerly.

Stella smiled and said, “Let’s talk about the big cases you have solved in the past few years. I’m more interested in this.”

“Inspector Grace really is a workaholic. Sun City is quite peaceful. People are simple and honest. People live and work in peace and contentment. This a city with a slower pace of life. By the way, you just came here. Let me introduce a few famous streets and scenic spots here.” Lena looked outside.

Stella nodded and did not force anything.

Lena Yard was eloquent and quick-witted. She hardly missed a beat when dealing with things.

No wonder the Discipline Inspection Institution of Sun City sent her to pick her up.

However, Stella could tell from her words that she had been hiding something.

She also remained calm and collected, staring at the ancient and mysterious Sun City. Her eyes were filled with gloom.

The car traveled for half an hour and arrived at the Moonlight Restaurant.

There were not many people in the room. There were only three of them.

Taylor Zenith, the treasurer of the Discipline Inspection Institute of Sun City.

Jade Lowell, the magistrate of the Discipline Inspection Institute of Sun City.

Sheena Zane, the Commander of the Discipline Inspection Institute of Sun City.

Lena introduced them to Stella.

There were not many people who came, but they were the core members of the Discipline Inspection Institution of Sun City.

“Our director hasn’t arrived yet?” Lena asked as she helped Stella pull out a chair.

“The director is very busy. It’s not like you don’t know that. It’ll probably take him another half an hour to get here.” Sheena explained with a smile.

“Then I’ll bring Inspector Grace to make a wish to the intertwining tree.” Lena dragged Stella along to the intertwining tree, which was at the center of the courtyard.

The intertwining tree was hung with wooden tokens, and there were bells under the wooden tokens.

There was a red light on the left side of the tree, and a street lamp on the right side, which illuminated the tree beautifully.

“Ah, the name on this wooden token is the same as yours,” Lena exclaimed excitedly.

“Stella Grace, I’m sorry. From now on, I’ll protect you.” Lena read it out loud.
