Chapter 550

Outside the car, the wind blew with a fury, emitting faint howls and a low, eerie, roar.

Not a sound could be heard inside the car.

The moment Stella said that, the two fell so silent they could hear each other’s breathing.

After a long time, the car arrived at the Stardust Mansion.

Before getting out, she heard the man’s voice coming from her side when she put her hand on the door
handle.

“Sit there and don’t move.”

Upon hearing that, she withdrew her hand.

He got out first and headed over to her side so he could open the car door and carry her out of the car.

“Ah!”

She exclaimed in surprise and hugged his neck out of instinct when she felt nothing under her feet.

She looked at his serious side profile -he did not seem to mind her subtle resistance.

“This dress gets wrinkled a lot,” Stella reminded softly.

She was telling him that she wanted to come down and walk on her own.

He swept a glance at her, as if not understanding her hint, and said, “It’s just a dress.”

Only then did she let go of her hand.



Once returning to the villa, he put her on the couch and went straight to the second floor.

She sank into the couch, not wanting to move.

After thinking about it, she sent a message to Roger to tell him that she was safe, then she left her
phone on the table and closed her eyes in exhaustion.

Maybe because many things happened today, she started dreaming.

She dreamed of many years ago –

She dreamed of the time when her mom and dad died. It was the darkest moment of her life.

It was a gloomy day, just like tonight. Before long, it was raining heavily

Five years ago, in Ahn City,

The rain got heavier and heavier and Stella was the only one left at the tomb

Her face was clean, but her eyes were red with tears mixed

with the rainwater.

With a raspy voice, she said, “Father, mother, I will take care of myself, don’t worry.”

After that, she placed a daisy in front of the grave. Finally, she took a deep breath and left.

The churchyard was silent.

Roger was devastated by the death of his parents and was still in the hospital room, so she had to take
on all the responsibility



“Uncle Michael? Aunt Diana?” she yelled and frowned. “Why aren’t they here?”

Stella’s parents were the most successful among the Sealeys. They were usually very helpful to their
relatives so they had a good relationship. After her parents passed away, it was Michael and Diana
busy taking care of her.

Diana had gone out for an emergency, so it was Michael accompanying Stella now.

It was not until two hours ago that he hurried back to the hotel, saying that he wanted to give her time
to say goodbye to her parents for the last time.

Stella frowned and walked down the hallway with her cell phone. When she was about to call him, she
suddenly heard a vague sound coming from another doorway.

“Mi- Michael, be gentle…” “Huh, you don’t like me to be rough?”
