"Are you done complaining?" RK walked over to Stella and sat down next to her, looking as if he was going to have a good chat with her."It's none of your business!" Stella adjusted her mood, making herself look more normal."As I said, blood is thicker than water. No matter what, I am Adrian's father. He will definitely accept me." RK was very confident in this matter."I don't want to argue with you about this, and I don't want to force Adrian to do anything he doesn't want to do. Hence, I won't interfere in your and Adrian's affairs." Stella stood up from the steps, tidied her clothes, and was ready to go out."All in all, thank you. Thank you for giving birth to Adrian. Thank you for letting him acknowledge me." RK's expression was still as cold as ever, but what he said was very shocking."I don't want your thank you. I just want to live a peaceful and stable life with Adrian. If you really want to thank me, don't bother us anymore.""Can we not always involve this topic in our c
Having taken care of Adrian for such a long time, Stella felt that it was time to go back to the company. This time, she did not ask for leave from the company at all because she had no time to due to an emergency. In addition, she was dizzy later, so she forgot about asking for leave.However, Emily knew that she had forgotten and must have found a way to help her. She could only wait for her to go back to work.That month's bonus wound definitely be gone. Not only would the bonus be gone, but her salary would also be deducted.It didn't matter if her salary was deducted. As long as she was healthy and lived a stable life, it wouldn't be a problem even if her whole year's salary was deducted.Thinking of this, the next day, Stella and Emily arrived at the company together."Emily, did you ask for leave for me at that time? I hope you didn't forget. If you did, then I am done for," Stella asked."I really didn't ask for your leave. It's the president who found an excuse to muddle thro
The atmosphere of gossip immediately spread throughout the cafeteria. During lunchtime, everyone in the company knew about what had happened between Stella and RK.Emily swallowed a mouthful of food and was shocked by the power of the gossip.How could a scholar know the affairs of the world without going out? She was completely convinced.Emily was ready to finish her meal and immediately go back to tell Stella about that matter. This group of people was really too scary.A colleague beside her poked Emily's arm."Emily, aren't you usually good friends with Stella? Do you know about this?"The surroundings quietened again as if they were waiting for Emily's answer."Hehe, no Stella has never told me about it. How come I don't know? Did her friend make a mistake... Hehe... The president is so awesome, how could he fall in love with a small employee like Stella?" Emily covered the matter up dryly.Everyone was more convinced of the gossip that they had just heard.It's over. Did that m
When Stella went in, RK was resting on the sofa. It seemed that he had fallen asleep from exhaustion with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. It seemed that he had been in pain before she arrived. She dared not to wake him up. Instead, she poured him a cup of hot water and then set it aside to cool down so that it was in time for him to take his medicine after he woke up.Immediately, after she fetched him his quilt and tucked him in. After her eyes scanned him for some time, she found that he seemed that he wouldn't wake any sooner. Perhaps he was too tired, so Stella decided against waiting. She set the medicine and the glass of water on the table in front of him. Just as she was about to leave, he woke up from stirring in his sleep."Well, you didn't bring the medicine, so I..." It seemed that she couldn't cover up the fact that she showed concern for him, so she made up her mind to explain at all. "Hurry up and take your medicine. I will take my leave!""Wait a minute! I have g
She was about to turn him down when RK's gaze stopped her.To be honest, she did not have any clothes in her mind she wanted. She was not a person who was fond of wearing new clothes. In short, she did not want to owe him anything in their fake marriage. Once Sophia recovered, she would leave in peace for France and never return.By then, she would assume as if RK had never appeared in her life.From then on, they were just passersby."Ding."Stella was pulled back to reality by the sound of the elevator.Oh, it turned out that she had arrived at the top floor.The lunch period was relatively short. Else, she might as well visit the hospital to take care of Adrian. If she had known, she would have paid a visit to Adrian even if the time was short. At least, she would not have to find herself facing RK's ugly face.After arriving at the president's office, Stella knocked on the door. In response, no one answered. After another series of knocks, there was still no reply.It just so happ
Stella knew that in the face of RK, she mustn't take his words seriously, but at the mention of the child's custody, she couldn't help the urge to rebuke his words."Stella, I am Adrian's father. Don't I have the right to raise him and protect him?""Is what you are doing protection? I know you want to fight over the right to Adrian's custody, but can't you wait a little longer? Can't you continue the fight after Adrian accepts all this? Do you think that this is for Adrian's sake? If things go on as it, I will not be the only one, but he will hate you as well.""That's impossible! Adrian won't hate me. I am his father!"Hearing the word "father" from RK, Stella couldn't help sneering."Do you think that if I tell Adrian about how his father divorced his mother for an irrelevant woman when his mother was pregnant with him, not to mention compelling her into getting rid of the child, how could you be so sure that he won't hate you? Wouldn't he hate you to the core where he might decide
"Daddy, I want a mommy like Aunt Stella. Aunt Sophia is so annoying. I don't like her. Daddy, will you not marry her? Daddy, she will hurt me when you are not at home."One had to admit that Alia had the talent in complaining. Not only did she praise one, but she also insulted another. Indeed, she was something.Stella felt that she had nothing to say. After a few days, Adrian had been brainwashed by Alia, not to mention how serious it was. He immediately showed his goodwill to RK's side. There were hints of rebellion."Alia, don't talk nonsense." RK interrupted Alia's coquettish act in time.In truth, deep in RK's heart he too felt that Alia's suggestion was a great idea. It was a win-win situation.After dinner, RK ordered the driver to send Alia home before he could have a brief chat with Stella and Adrian. It was not until eight o'clock in the evening that he left the ward with Stella to head home.It was no surprise that RK drove Stella home. On the way, Stella leaned against the
Not long after a simple day passed, Stella received the notice of notification from the court, a letter of authorization, and a letter of evidence.Did it imply that she was about to start a lawsuit?Could it be that the right to Adrian's custody might not belong to her?She dared not imagine such a scene.Tristan came to visit her, informing her about how he had assisted her in hiring a lawyer. She had an advantage in all aspects. There was a rule in the law that after staying with one parent for some time, a drastic shift in the living environment was not beneficial toward the development of the child, not to mention how the parent with no other children held the upper hand in comparison to the parent raising other children.Deep down, Stella knew that she was in an advantageous position.She had no other children, plus she had been staying with Adrian all the while, RK had never stayed under the same roof as Adrian, not to mention how he had Alia, his beloved daughter.
