Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

“Okay.” Stella Grace responded.

After resting for a while, she went back to her room.

Secrecy was difficult if there were too many people around. They would also be targeted by others, so they had to be cautious.

When she lay down on the bed, she received a text message.

Stella saw that it was from Jasper Milton.

“What are you doing?”

Stella smiled, showing a sincere smile for these two months. “Getting ready to sleep, what about you?”

“So am I. Let’s sleep.”

Stella dozed off while holding her mobile phone.

When she woke up, the sky was already very bright.

She checked the time.

Ten o’clock.

She was late.

She got up, brushed her teeth, washed her face, put on her makeup, changed her clothes, and went out.

She passed by Room 1827.

The door was closed.

Jasper should have left.

When she went down to the lobby, Eden Yard was already there.

Stella nodded politely and said, “Well, I got up late. I’m sorry to keep you waiting.”

“It doesn’t matter. I heard about it when I came here, that there was a murder case in your room last night. I didn’t expect that the security captain of this hotel was such a person. He almost implicated Inspector Grace.” Eden said.

“Truth will speak for itself. Let’s go,” Stella said nonchalantly and walked ahead.

They got in the car.

Eden turned on the radio, in which there was a broadcast of real-time traffic.

Stella looked out of the window.

“How long does Inspector Grace plan on staying?” Eden asked tentatively.

“I don’t know. It shouldn’t be long. After all, my family is in A City.” Stella tried to break the ice.

Eden smiled. “There’s one thing. Now it’s a hot topic in the Inspection Institution. Don’t take it to heart if you hear it later.”

Stella turned to look at Eden and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Eden was about to say something, but he stopped on a second thought. “They said that you joined the Discipline Inspection Commission through the back door. The higher-ups backing for you are powerful.”

“I got the first place in the written examination. My image isn’t so poor that I can’t pass the interview. As for the higher-ups, they are indeed powerful.” Stella said meaningfully.

Eden’s expression looked a little ugly. “Now, everything depends on networking. If you don’t have any network, you can only work at the bottom for a lifetime.”

Stella did not speak.

She had thought that it was because of his own capability that Frederick Addington became the Deputy Chief of the Health Department. Now she knew the relationship between Frederick and the President.

If it was not Jasper exposing him, Frederick would soon become the Chief of the Health Department according to the usual career development.

Later, he would become the deputy town mayor, the town mayor, the vice-governor, then the governor. Step by step, he would get closer to the President’s side and become the President’s right-hand man eventually.

The car drove for half an hour before they arrived at the Inspection Institution.

The Sun City Inspection Institution building stood tall at 27 floors. It looked glamorous and magnificent.

“Was your Inspection Institution building just built?” Stella asked and followed Eden into the building.

“Yes, it was shifted from the old town area to this development area two years ago.” Eden glanced at the time on his wrist.

“Now let’s get to know our colleagues in the Inspection Institute. After that, it’s time for lunch. I heard that there will be another inspector coming from B city today. Since when does our Sun City become so popular?”

“Don’t be too nervous. It’s all routine business.” Stella followed Eden into the office and met the colleagues of the inspection group.

“What cases are you guys working on now?” Stella asked.

Her colleagues looked at each other and did not dare to answer casually.

“Inspector Grace is really dedicated and responsible, working right away as you arrive. It’s about time for lunch. Little Yard went to pick up the inspector from B City. Let’s have a meal first. Let’s chat when we’re eating.” Eden said perfunctorily.

“All right. We need to work but we also need to take meals. However, I need to do something today, otherwise, I can’t explain to the superiors. I guess yesterday I didn’t perform well, so the superiors sent people from B City to come here,” Stella joked.

Eden’s facial expression looked a little worse. “So, do you all really have a target this time?”

“Indeed yes. Let’s eat first and talk about work in the afternoon.” Stella threw Eden’s words back at him.

At the meal, she met the inspector from B City, Mina Hadley.

She had a dark complexion and short hair. She was thin and petite, but her eyes were sharp.

She did not speak much, at most just a few words, which were very simple and crisp.

Stella reckoned that she was a special-forces soldier that Jasper had sent.

During the meal, there were a few embarrassing and awkward moments.

When the meal was over, Mina said to the director seriously, “I have a task here. I hope you can cooperate with me.”noveldrama

“Yes, yes, of course. But, what is your task this time?” the director asked with a smile.

“The superiors are going to catch a person, but it’s inconvenient to reveal the specific details. You just need to submit the information as I requested,” Mina said coldly.

“Sure, since the superiors want to catch someone, we will certainly cooperate fully with the work.” The director promised.

Mina looked at Stella and said, “You are the inspector sent by City A, right? I heard that you are now living in a suite in a six-star hotel. I will move to your room later and we will work together in the future.”

The faces of the director and the others turned pale all of a sudden.

It seemed that the superiors were keeping an eye on every single move they made.

They did not dare to take even the slightest move anymore.

Eden Yard and Lena Yard took Mina Hadley and Stella Grace back to the hotel.

Lena was still very active on the way.

Stella would smile and occasionally say something gently.

Mina pursed her lips tight and stared at Lena. Her eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s.

“Are both of your higher-ups the same?” Lena asked with a chuckle.

“Be serious. What’s so funny? Inspector Grace and I are both from the Inspection Institution. We have our own tasks. We don’t know whether our higher-ups are the same or not. Stop snooping. Be careful or you will be the first one to get investigated.” Mina snapped sternly.

Lena was completely destroyed.

She did not say anything more. She did not even get off the car even when they reached the hotel.

Eden laughed dryly and said, “Little Yard is still of a young age, so it’s inevitable that she talks too much. Please excuse her.”

“It doesn’t matter if you talk too much, but it matters when you don’t have a brain.” Mina retorted coldly.

“It’s okay. Inspector Mina is relatively strict.” Stella patted Eden’s shoulder and comforted him.

“Okay, you can rest first. I will come back to pick you up at 2:30 in the afternoon.” Eden nodded and left.

Stella Grace entered Room 1829 and closed the door.

Mina took out an iPad from the outside of the box and

switched it.

The tablet was beeping non-stop.

Six red dots were flashing on the screen.

Stella furrowed her brow.

Mina pressed a button, and the six red dots turned green.

She put the tablet down, saluted Stella Grace respectfully, and reported expressionlessly, “I’m number 1666 from the special-forces military. Our leader ordered me to protect you and listen to your instructions. The room has been placed under surveillance. Everything is recorder and taped. Do you need to remove them right away?”

“Oh, re… remove them then.” Stella stammered, taken back.

Stella’s cell phone rang. When she saw that it was Jasper’s call, she answered immediately.

“Have you seen her? Number 1666.”

Jasper’s voice came from the other end of the phone. She felt secure and at ease.
