Suddenly, a wild laugh resounded around the room, and someone clapped loudly. Everyone instantly turned their attention to that person, and some even raised their brows. " Kudos to you for fooling around, but I won't fall for that!" Stella stood up and spat at Aiden , as she glared at him with a look full of scorn! " What?!" Cole raised up his head, and his eyes darted around between Stella and Aiden. " Stella, what are you saying?!" Finally, Lady Irish couldn't sit still anymore, and she scolded Stella, but the latter just ignored her. Stella turned to everyone and scoffed, " You guys may believe all he said, but I won't!" Everyone gasped and wondered if Stella knew what she was saying. Aiden didn't say anything and just narrowed his eyes at Stella. He wondered what his so called wife is up to. " Aiden! Just stop playing your games! They are too dumb." Stella hissed with irritation and faced Aiden. " Your mediocre acting won't work here! So, stop fabricating lies!!!"Aiden m
" Hello everyone," one of the lawyers greeted, immediately they stepped in. Everyone turned their attention to them and wondered why they were here. Stella, who was about to spat some vulgar words at Aiden, pressed her lips and just stared at the lawyers. " How may we help you?" Lady Irish asked the lawyers in a frail voice, but inwardly, she was hoping for something good. The man who seemed to be the head of the lawyers, stepped forward, and this immediately made everyone to also shift awkwardly. " Good day everyone. I am lawyer Liam," the head lawyer cleared his throat, as he introduced himself. Lawyer Liam picked out some documents and placed them in front of him. " Firstly before anything, my condolence. May his soul found a perfect peace." Then, he looked up at everyone. Seeing this, Aiden already guessed the lawyers were probably here, because of the late Lord Osric's will. Well, he couldn't deal with Stella like this, so he let it go, just for the sake of the
Well, Aiden didn't really care if Stella was kidnapped, or not. She deserved it anyway, but he just couldn't let her be like that. Though, Stella had accused him wrongly and insulted him to the very core, but he was not a bad person. For the sake of his saviour, he was going to save Stella. So, who dared to kidnap his wife under his eyes?! Who dared to take what belongs to him?! Are they tired of living?! If that's so, then he will gladly grant their wish of dying!Aiden stood up and went outside with his bodyguard. Then he took out his phone. " Hello boss!" Someone immediately answered his call. " Investigate who dared to take away my wife and give me the result within 10 minutes!!" Aiden ordered, with a sharp voice, though his face was expressionless. " Alright boss!" The person who received Aiden's order, replied with a shaky voice. Then, Aiden hung up. The bodyguard beside him stepped back subconsciously and quivered lightly. This was because the body guard could clear
In a very bright room filled with beautiful fragrance and elegant colorful designs. The room surely screamed of uniqueness! Laid on the bed was a delicate looking woman, with lush lips. She appeared to be in a deep sleep, or was she unconscious? Lashes quivered slowly, brows furrowed deeply, and finally, bright blue eyes came into view. *Gasp!*Stella gasped loudly, the moment she was awake, and her eyes darted around the whole room. " Where am I?" She muttered beneath her breath, and her heart started palpitating! As her heart throbbed more, memories of what happened to her earlier, streamed into her head. She only stomped out of the villa, because she was really mad and embrassed, but she wasn't expecting to be taken forcefully!"Oh my! I was kidnapped!" Stella covered her mouth and instantly panicked, as the realisation hit her! Swiftly, Stella jumped off the bed and checked her whole body. Seeing she was okay, and everything was intact, she heaved a sigh of relief. But be
Stella could feel how the temperature in the room dropped drastically, and beads of sweats broke out on the crown of her head. The Scorpion leader smirked, when he sensed Stella's fears. This was exactly what he wanted...Before anything else could happen, he circled his arm around Stella's waist and turned her around, pushing her to the floppy bed. This happened too fast to the extent, Stella couldn't think of anything. " Why don't I show you what I can do?" His gaze darkened, and under his eyes, one could see a frost full of lust. Stella's eyes bulged out, and she shifted backward on the bed. This was not what she thought would be the outcome of her words. " No, don't come close!" She shook her head, looking frantic. " Please...." She begged softly, with new tears streaming out. " I told you not to beg right?" The Scorpion leader sauntered closer to her with a devil may care look. " Your begging only turns me on more," he warned huskily, looking like a tiger appro
" You only have 10 seconds or ......" Aiden relaxed himself and looked at the Scorpion leader indifferently. " You know the rules." The scorpion leader was flummoxed, and his heart skipped a beat. He was indeed very anxious, but was there something he could do? Aiden just watched how the Scorpion leader battled with what to do. Well, he didn't mean to be ruthless, but the Scorpion leader had provoked him too much. He had to put him in his position no matter what. Though, he was still gathering evidence, so he could know if the Scorpion leader has something to do with Lord Osric's death. Everything was just too connected. About his past, he would deal with Scorpion leader later. . " 9 seconds!" He reminded the Scorpion leader. The scorpion leader trembled and pressed his lips into a straight line.Under Aiden's eyes, there were turbulent waves hidden in his noble eyes. The slightly melted ice collided with the giant waves in his eyes. He was mighty and tall. The moment he spo
Two days later. The Burial of the late Lord Osric was planned to betide this very special day. This was because, they wanted the deceased soul to be in peace. There was no need to delay things anymore. The Lucius family sent out many invitations about the funeral of the late Lord Osric, and it was received by highly influential and eminent people. The big hall inside the Lucius Villa was the venue, where everything would take place. By this time, there were already elegant and unique decorations, that could be seen inside the big hall. At the entrance of the hall was a big attractive wreath and a long picture of the deceased, Lord Osric, on the easel. Inside the decorated hall, large Floral arrangements were made on the columns and table, with candelabras and faux. One could also see a large casket spray and an aisle at the top.The hall now appeared solemn. Now, everything was all set, and the hall breathed out a sophisticated air. It didn't take long before the gu
The funeral reception started, and finally, everyone's mood brightened again. There were fountains of wine, a table full of all around the dishes, and so on like that. The guests tooasted and laughed together with the Lucius family. Everyone was happy, and the atmosphere turned into something light. But Aiden wasn't there. He felt there was no need for him to attend a party like that.Well, no one bothered about him anyway. Soon, the party was over, and everyone went to their various destination back. ******The next day came crisp and dreamy. It was bright and beautiful. In the Lucius Villa, Aiden had already moved in, since he would need to keep a close eye on the Lucius family. He didn't want any bad thing to happen again. Stella went to Aiden's room and knocked the door. " Come in," a deep attractive voice sounded, and Stella pushed open the door immediately. Aiden just glanced at her briefly, before he focused back on what he was doing earlier. " Uhm..are you going t
