Chapter 706 She Will Miss Me, But She Won’t Be In Despair
She understood his suspicion and caution. After all, he had just been betrayed by Samuel, the person who was closest to him. It was understandable why he would be cautious of Sean, especially when he had tried to kill him before.
“There is a saying that a gentleman is magnanimous and honest. If you are afraid of being discovered, you will always be in panic. It is better to face the crisis and try to communicate with him, don’t you think?”
“Do you think that Sean will communicate with us like a sensible person would? Now that the three giants are gone, he has no one else to fear, and he won’t leave any hidden dangers behind,” Bellamy said with certainty.
“What do you think is the best solution then?” Stella asked calmly.
“Couldn’t we just ask where Darren’s body is?”
“Samuel will definitely be sent to the military court. Could you guarantee that he won’t tell the court about your identity? Of course, you could also execute him secretly. However, with Sean’s intelligence, he will see through your ambition in a glance, do you think he will let you go then? If you were to stain your hands with blood for your own benefit, what makes you any different from Quinn and Christian?” Stella asked him.
Jasper would never hurt anyone for his own personal gain, not even Zoah, who had once harmed him. He chose to forgive him instead.
“I understand. I’ll just go along with your plan then,” Bellamy said softly.
Stella did not waste any more time talking to him.
He was Jasper’s older brother. No matter what, she had to protect him. This was also a way to make it up to Jasper.
Stella and Elvis then went to the President’s Mansion together.
Elvis looked at Stella, who kept looking out of the window.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Mrs. Milton, will you be with the Chief’s brother?” Elvis asked carefully.
Stella looked at Elvis and said with certainty, “No, I won’t. What about you? Will you be as loyal to Bellamy as you were with Jasper?”
“I don’t know. When I heard that the Chief was gone, I seemed to have lost the core support from my life. But after thinking about it, I am fortunate that you are still alive, Mrs. Milton. So, I know I will be devoted to you,” Elvis said after thinking for a while.
Stella smiled slightly.
She had to speak to the soldiers before she follows after Jasper.
Stella reached the President’s Mansion an hour later. Sean did not know that Stella was coming too, so he was slightly surprised when he saw her. “Eli will be very happy.”
“Before I see her, I want to talk to you first. Are you free now?” Stella said with a smile.
“Of course, let’s go to my study,” Sean walked in front and Stella followed him from behind.
Yvonne looked at Stella thoughtfully and asked ‘Natasha’, who was next to her, “Who do you think looks better? Me, or her?”
“Her facial features are very delicate while yours are very exquisite. She has good skin, and yours is perfect too. She has an elegant temperament, and your temperament is noble. If we were to talk about the differences, her eyes are very bright, very ethereal, like a fairy living in the sky. She has no desires nor thoughts, but she has a compassionate heart. But you, you have too much desire…” ‘Natasha’ did not go on.
“So, she is even more perfect than I am,” Yvonne said sullenly as she watched Stella entering Sean’s study room.
“What is it?” Sean asked.
“There is something that I have to clarify. Bellamy is not Jasper. He is Jasper’s twin brother,” Stella said as she stared at Sean.
A flash of light passed Sean’s eyes as he looked at Stella in silence.
“I only found out about it yesterday. The reason he pretended to be Jasper was that he was afraid that I would commit suicide if I were to find out that Jasper was dead,” Stella continued.
Sean was still silent.
“I hope that you could forgive him no matter what he does in the future. Could you promise me that?”
“What if he refuses to let me go in the future?” Sean retorted.
“I will ask him to do the same too,” Stella said with a smile.
Sean frowned. “Is he unwilling to go with you?”
Stella shook her head, “He is willing to leave this place and to let go of everything here. But I didn’t want to. You should know, it wasn’t easy for Jasper and me to be together. If he is dead, then I wouldn’t want to live anymore.”
“Eli will definitely be sad if she hears about this,” Sean frowned even more tightly.
“She has you in the future, and I believe that you will take good care of her. Everyone has their own choices. I feel pain every day, and I believe that death would be the best fate for me.”
“I think that you should see a therapist,” Sean reminded.
Stella smiled. “I am a therapist, psychology is my major. There are not that many people in this world who are better than me. Therefore, when a psychologist has a mental illness, there are not many people who could save them.”
“It would be a good choice for you to be with Bellamy too,” Sean suggested.
“What about Jasper? He is lying alone in the cold ground. How sad and lonely must that be?” Her eyes turned red at the thought of Jasper.
“No one can come back to life. What is important is that we should cherish the present. If we die, we will have nothing left. Our lives are short and we only have one life,” Sean advised.
“A lifetime is too long. Should I live eighty years of grief or thirty years of happiness? I know that there may not be life after death, but to live a heartless life is useless too. If I don’t have emotions, if I were to continue the same routine every day for the rest of my life, then what is the difference between me and a corpse?’
“What if you meet someone whom you have feelings for in the future?”
“Then Jasper’s death will not be worth it. I will have betrayed him, and I don’t deserve a great love like that,” Stella said.
“Based on your logic, people shouldn’t continue to fall in love after being in love once. If so, then love should not exist anymore. More than 98% of people in this world would be bachelors and widows,” Sean disagreed.
“It varies from person to person. Some people do not deserve such love. They do not feel sorry even when their relationship ends. I once loved Frederick, but he was not worthy of my love, so I gave up. Jasper is a man worthy of my protection for the rest of my life. Sean, nothing you say will change my mind. I have made my decision, and I won’t change it. I just hope that you will let Bellamy go in the future, alright?” Stella asked.
“As long as he doesn’t do anything to hurt me, my family, or the people I love, I will not hurt him, I swear,” Sean raised his hand as he swore.
Stella was relieved. “Thank you. By the way, now that you have stabilized your position, no one could compete with you. When are you going to marry Eli?”
“I will terminate the agreement with Yvonne in advance. I want to marry Eli as soon as possible to bring our child back,” Sean said expectantly, then his eyes sank again. “Could you leave after we get married? Otherwise, Eli will definitely be very sad.”
“Don’t tell her the truth then. Let her think that I am traveling around the world. She will miss me, but at least, she won’t be in despair,” Stella said.
