Chapter 688 Let’s Only Walk the Path of Success
Bellamy leaned against the wall in shock. His gaze was fixed on a distant point as his chest heaved up and down heavily.
He recalled the time he had spent with Sean. He had always thought that it was Quinn who had exposed the information. Never had he imagined Sean to be the one who revealed it.
If Sean was truly behind it, then Bellamy had only one word to describe him – terrifying.
It took his father more than ten years to stabilize his powers. However, he only took two years. On top of that, he did not even stain his hands in the process.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“No,” Sean said in a low voice.
“Of course you will deny it. Seeing how shrewd you are, how could you admit it? Sean, Bellamy is Jasper, are you satisfied with this answer? Once Quinn is dead, no one could challenge your position anymore, not even Jasper. We will prepare to leave the country once were back. Forget about us,” Stella warned sternly.
“Did you just say that Bellamy is Jasper?” Sean was shocked.
“I am very tired. Since I’ve helped you, you should let go of Jasper and me. Eli will only have a happy life if I help you. Don’t waste your time on us anymore,” Stella said and immediately hung up the phone.
Bellamy walked into the room. The emotions in his eyes were complex as he looked at Stella. “Do you also think that Sean is the most suspicious?”
“I was testing him, but he denied. For now, there is no way to know if he is telling the truth, Jasper.” As Stella called his name, she stood up and walked towards him.
“Yeah,” Bellamy agreed.
Stella said, “I’ve already told Sean that you are Jasper. I believe that he might target you when he didn’t know that you are Jasper. But now that he knows, he might let go of you.”
“And what does that mean?” Bellamy asked quietly.
“It is the end for Quinn and his men. However, before we could confirm whether Sean is the man behind this, it would be wise to let him go first. He is the man that Eli loves, and I still owe Eli. Let’s avoid him unless we have absolutely no choice,” Stella pleaded.
Bellamy was silent.
He felt an urge to fight against Sean once he knew that he was the one behind everything.
In truth, Bellamy was just like Jasper. They were as fierce as a war god. He had never lost in a battle, nor had he ever made a mistake. However, he had suffered a great loss because of Sean.
He was unwilling to give up, and that refusal fuelled the veins of his body with excitement.
“Jasper,” Stella called him.
“Call me Bellamy,” he said.
“Bellamy?”
His gaze softened as he reached out to hold her in his arms. “Do you know why I called myself Bellamy?”
“Does it have a special meaning?” Stella mused.
“That’s right, there was a man with this name too. He always has a clear mind and he always knows what he has to do. He was also a swift and decisive man. I think of speed whenever this name is brought up.”
Stella looked at him. There was a sense of foreboding in her heart. She said, “You are expressing your enthusiasm, your abilities, and your decisiveness. You’re telling me you don’t want to forgive Sean.”
“If he killed my comrades, I will not forgive him,” Bellamy said firmly.
Stella took a step back and lowered her eyes as she said, “I don’t want to discuss this issue with you right now. After all, we don’t know who the murderer is. Maybe it’s not him at all. I’m just making assumptions.”
“Alright, you should rest. I will make some arrangements first. We must return safely,” Bellamy said in a deep voice.
Stella looked up at him. “Since you are now in someone else’s trap, it’s too dangerous to meet the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
It would be better to invite the Minister over so that we could discuss it here. Tell him that you don’t have any other choice.
Otherwise, if you think that it would be too risky, you could always ask to move the date of the appointment earlier. Just don’t allow someone else to dictate your schedule.”
“Well, that’s my plan too. Take a rest first. When I leave, I will install a listening device on myself. You will be able to hear our conversation then. When the time comes, we could communicate directly then.”
Stella knew that he wanted her to be safe, which was why he refused to let her follow him.
She too did not want to be a burden to him and decided it would be better for him to act alone.
After Bellamy left, Stella took a clean set of clothes and entered the bathroom. She took off her clothes and sat in the bathtub, closing her eyes as she rested.
Just then, her phone rang.
She opened her eyes helplessly and looked at her phone. It was Anthony.
She had forgotten to return Anthony’s call.
Answering the call, she was greeted by Anthony’s solemn voice. “Mrs. Milton, the Chief’s plane exploded.”
“I know, don’t worry,” Stella said lightly.
Anthony smiled, “I knew that the Chief would be alright. If that is the case, I shall return to my work. I will wait for your triumphant return.”
“Alright,” Stella said before hanging up the phone. Staring forward as she held her chest, Stella still felt uncomfortable. As she rested in the bathtub, she began to feel sleepy.
Worried that she would fall asleep in the tub and get a cold, she took a shower, changed her clothes, and left the bathroom.
Bellamy walked into the room and looked at her, his eyes unreadable. He pulled the drawer out of the TV cabinet and took a hairdryer from it.
Stella remembered the first time that she had met him. Back then, he had also taken out a hairdryer from under the TV cabinet. An indescribable feeling welled up in her heart once again.
Before Bellamy could dry her hair, she hugged him, burying her sullen face in his chest without saying a word.
His gaze softened, and his heart was filled with tenderness as sweet as honey. The fiery fighting spirit that possessed him was extinguished in seconds.
He had already made up her mind. Since her wish was to leave with him, then they would leave together.
It was his first time compromising, and it was also the first time that he changed his ambitions, dreams, and aspirations that he had ever since he was young.
He imagined lots of children gathered around the both of them. He thought it was a beautiful scene.
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, saying, “Sean will have stabilized his position and powers after we complete this mission and return to the country. Then, we could leave together.”
“Alright,” Stella was moved. She nodded her head.
She could finally leave and she could finally live her dream life with Jasper. “You must be careful during this time’s negotiation.”
“Don’t worry, I just received an important evidence. We will definitely succeed,” Bellamy said, full of confidence. “Let me dry your hair. I will leave after that.”
Stella stood beside him docilely, staring at his cold and stern face.
He smiled when their eyes met, “If you keep looking at me like that, I will overthink.”
Stella blushed slightly and lowered her eyes. “If Quinn is done for, Sean could then cement his position. What he has to do now is to negotiate with Yvonne. After all, the person he wanted to marry has always been Eli.”
“With his intelligence and astuteness, Yvonne is not a match for him,” Bellamy said.
“He would probably take action against us for Eli’s sake. I want to live on the deserted island before the baby is born. After that, you have to find someone worthy of your trust and hand him the antidote for development.”
