Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 126 Strong Affection



Stella Grace sat on the sofa, waiting to hear from Jasper Milton the entire night.

She did not dare to sleep for fear she would miss his call.

In fact, she couldn’t fall asleep at all.

She could not feel at ease until she knew he was safe.

Three days passed.

She was exhausted. She ate nothing, lying in the sofa while looking at her phone.

Mina Hadley could not bear seeing her like this. She said, “Stella, eat something or sleep for a while. If the Chief calls you, I will immediately tell you. The Chief would be sad if you fall sick.”

Stella stared at the phone and said nothing. Her gaze was empty and lifeless.

Mina squatted in front of her. “Actually, no news is still good news, right? Let’s eat something.”

“He must have gotten into an accident. If he’s alright, he would have called me by now,” Stella said with certainty.

It was unusual for him to remain silent for three days.

In fact, Mina also felt something was off. “Why don’t you call the Chief’s parents? They must know something,” she suggested.

Mina’s words reminded Stella.

Stella’s eyes lit up.

All she wanted now was for Jasper to be safe.

She called Suzi Shine.

Suzi answered the call.

“Hello, this is Stella.” She sat up nervously.

“Yes, I know.” Suzi’s voice was calm.

Stella got right to the point. “May I know if Jasper is safe now?”

Suzi paused for a long moment.

Stella frowned. “I just want to know if he is okay?” she repeated, afraid that Suzi would refuse to respond.

Suzi took a deep breath. “He did an outstanding job. He defeated the enemy and destroyed all the dangerous weapons owned by the enemy. However, he took a blow to the head during the fight and fell into the sea. He nearly drowned.”

Stella’s tears rolled down her cheeks.

She knew that something had happened to him.

“Is he okay now?” Stella choked.

If he had died, she could not go on living.

“Yes, but his brain has been damaged, he can’t remember a lot of things. He probably wouldn’t recognize you anymore. Perhaps this is a good thing. You can finally move on. You’re safe now. The relationship between you two is over,” Suzi said gently.

Stella was speechless,

her mind went blank.

She felt as if the heavens were slowly falling.

She had seen paradise, and now she was getting further and further from it.

Should she feel lucky? Regretful? She knew that this probably was for the best.

Suzi hung up the phone. Stella was left standing frozen, as if she had lost her soul.

“Stella, what’s wrong? Don’t make me worried,” Mina implored.

Stella pushed Mina away and walked out of the room.

She didn’t know where she wanted to go.

She just didn’t want to stay in the room and do nothing.

Mina was afraid something might happen to Stella, so she followed her.

Stella wandered the streets in a daze from dawn till dusk. Finally, she sat on a stone bench.

The moon was very bright tonight, and there were many stars.

Her life with Jasper had been like a dream.

Time to wake up and face reality.

If she didn’t, she would go crazy.

At least

he was still alive.

Jasper Milton could have a better life without her. A brighter future was ahead of him. He had nothing to be worried about.

Stella would find a way to live without Jasper. Finally, she could return to her normal life.

Stella went back to the hotel. She then brushed her teeth, washed her face, had dinner, and went to sleep.

The next day, she returned to work.

She went to work, ate, and then slept. Everything was normal.

Except that she was silent the entire time.

Half a month later, Mina received a call at night.

She knocked on Stella’s door, a pained look on her face.

Stella opened the door.

“Stella, the Chief has returned to the army. This morning, he was promoted to Lieutenant General for his success with the terrorists.”

Stella listened calmly.

She had been expecting this.

“However, I have it on good authority that the Chief has lost a part of his memory. We can’t go back anymore,” Mina frowned.

Stella was puzzled. “What are you talking about? What do you mean “can’t go back”?”

“When the Chief decided to help you, he chose a group of us from the military. We are directly under his command, and our records were temporarily removed from the team.

Only the top secret office has our files. No one knows where that office is.

Now that the chief has lost his memory, we can’t return to the team.” Mina stared at the ground in despair.

Stella Grace realized how serious the matter was. “Who else is there besides you?”noveldrama

She had brought disaster upon these people.

It didn’t matter what happened to her now, but what about these soldiers?

“Two of us are negotiating with an antiques dealer. Another two of us are spying on Lionel Lausanne. There are also two people investigating the manager of the construction company. In total, there are seven of us. I still get paid but they get nothing. I’m not sure what they can do in the future. What can we do now?” Mina was bursting with desperation.

“You’re all in this situation because of me. Therefore, I will definitely find a way for you to return to the team. Don’t worry.” Stella called Suzi Shine.

After some time, Suzi finally answered the call.

“What’s the matter?” Suzi asked in a sleepy voice.

“I’m sorry for disturbing you, Madam Shine. The Chief established a secret task force, and he deleted their records from the team. However, their records are kept in a top secret office. I think they would be able to return to the team,” Stella explained in a gentle tone.

“The top secret office for every country is independently managed. No one knows where they are, including my husband and I. I’m afraid we can’t help you. Well, how many people are there in total? I will give them 500, 000 dollars per person as a compensation. Tell them not to return to the team. You don’t have to call me again in the future,” Suzi said curtly.

Stella was silent for a moment.

“Since you want to compensate with money let’s get one million dollars per person. They have a total of seven people,” Stella negotiated calmly.

“Sure. I think seven million is reasonable. I also helped you a lot before. Now we don’t owe anything to each other. I will transfer the money to you soon.” Suzi hung up the phone.
