“I have no evidence. Ah yes, have you had your meal yet? Do you have a kitchen on this boat? I’ll cook for you,” Stella Grace quickly changed the topic.
Now she just wanted to get to the shore safely, and then find a chance to let Suzi Shine know where Jasper Milton was.
“Not yet, come with me.” Frederick Addington turned around, took two steps, and stopped.
Stella stopped instinctively and made sure to keep a safe distance from him.
Frederick squinted at Stella with a cold look in his eyes. He ordered, “Come closer.”
Stella frowned slightly and took two small steps forward.
Frederick took a big step toward her, put his arm around her waist, and pulled her to his side. “Why are you acting so strangely?”
She looked up at him. Three years had passed, but there was no trace of aging on Frederick’s face. Just by looking at his appearance, he was still handsome, and his coy eyes were full of charm, which was unparalleled.
She still remembered their first meeting. Her mother was sick and she had accidentally bumped into him. Not only did he not make things hard for her, but he’d even helped her and got her mother the best treatment for her illness.
Before getting married, he’d helped her find a job and solve any problems she’d faced at work. He even sent flowers to her company every day, and when she worked overtime, he would send supper to her. In the winter, when her hands were cold, he held her hands and put them in his pockets.
She remembered all he had done for her. But everything he’d done was carefully calculated and planned out, and when they’d gotten married, she’d fallen into an endless abyss of darkness.
She and Frederick didn’t have a good start, so naturally, there wouldn’t be a good ending.
Now, what he wanted was to possess her and conquer her.
Love? It had long been worn away by the river of time.
“I haven’t bathed or washed my hair for a few days. Don’t you think that I stink?” Stella said calmly.
Frederick suddenly sniffed her body, and then her neck.
When his breath fell on her skin, she felt itchy and stepped back.
This action completely provoked Frederick. He held her chin and kissed her on the lips.
She was shocked as she pushed Frederick away.
A sharp light flashed in Frederick’s eyes, and he rushed over to her like a thunderstorm, arrogant and domineering, and lifted Stella with a great deal of strength.
She suddenly realized the danger she was in and screamed, ” Let me go!”
Frederick became more arrogant and said mysteriously, “Why should I let you go? You are my woman, and I’ve already given you far too many chances and too much time. I’ll never let you go again, much less let you off the hook.”
“Don’t do this,” She said sharply, her voice trembling.
He kicked the door open, threw Stella on the bed, and removed his tie.
Stella’s eyes were wide open, brimming with fear and panic. She rolled down from the bed, hid beside the bed, and looked at Frederick with vigilance.
Frederick sneered and said coldly, “Last time you said you were on your period. Now it’s been a few days since you left. I find it hard to believe that you’re not well yet.”
Stella trembled as her hands were clenched into fists.
She thought of jumping off the boat and just ending her life. However, Jasper was still on the deserted island. She needed to send people to his rescue first. Then only could she die.
“I really can’t. I was forced to the sea last time, and I still have not recovered. Frederick, don’t do this.” Stella pleaded.
“Don’t do this? Heh.” Frederick said with a sneer and walked up to her.
Stella stood up subconsciously and stepped back.
There was a crack in Frederick’s eyes, and he said sharply, “‘Don’t do this?’ Or is it more that you don’t want to do this at all. You’ve never thought about giving yourself to me from the beginning.”
“Why should I give myself to you? How did you treat me when I was married to you?” Stella shouted back.
“When I was young and frivolous, I was confused by hatred. I said that I have changed. If you’re going to say that I treated you badly, then how did Jasper treat you? Jasper was the one who brought you more pain. At least I never had any children with some other women. What about Jasper and Bettany Hadley’s child?” Frederick took off his clothes as he moved closer to her.
“You coerced me, hurt the person I love, and injected poison into me. This is what you did to me. Did you really think I would possibly fall for you after all that? Jasper brought me pain because he lost his memory – I don’t blame him at all!”
“In your heart, he’s the good one while I’m the evil one! I have nothing else to say to you!” He seemed to have lost his marbles.
He really did love her. This woman didn’t know that after she disappeared, he hadn’t had a shut-eye until now and he had mobilized all the people he could to find her.
He loved her, so he tolerated and forgave her again and again.
It was only because he loved her that he had offended Jasper to begin with. After all, Jasper’s power and background were very strong.
However, she did not believe in his love at all.
In her eyes, Jasper was good, and he was bad.
His heart was in so much pain that it felt as if it was about to explode.
Was this supposed to be his punishment?
Punishment on him for playing with too many people’s feelings in the past. Therefore, it was karma that he was destined not to get the woman he wanted.
He clenched his teeth. “Yes, I have never loved you, Stella!
I just don’t want my things to be taken away by others, especially not by Jasper.”
“If it’s destined to be taken away, I’ll destroy it and the person who took my things.”
“I’m making it clear to you now, Stella: You are my plaything. It doesn’t matter whether you are having your period now or not, I will f*ck you.
What’s more, did you think that I’m a fool? The person who lived with you on the island was Jasper. Except for Jasper, you wouldn’t want to live with other men.
You also deliberately went to the cockpit to see the coordinates of the deserted island, so that you could get someone to save him.
Do you think that Jasper will still be alive after tonight?
I’m sorry, my people have already laid an ambush on the island. He’s definitely going to die – I won’t let him live.
If you go with me, I will let you live. If you disobey me, I will let you and Jasper die far away from each other. I will never let you be together forever.
“Frederick Addington, you despicable swine!” Stella shouted hysterically.
“Since I’m already such a despicable villain in your eyes, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t live up to your expectations if I didn’t do something terrible to you,” he said, rushing towards Stella.
Stella jumped out of the window.
He chased after her.
She sat on the railing.
Frederick’s heart tightened. He stopped and shouted, “What are you doing? Don’t you want to live?”
“You know full well whether I want to live or not. In fact, it’s been three years since I lost the will to live. Don’t bother saving me this time. Even if you do, I won’t be grateful to you, let alone fall in love with you. I will kill you if I ever get a chance.” Stella said determinedly.
If Jasper died, she would no longer have the desire to live.
Even if she was alive, she would still be under Frederick’s control.
She didn’t want such a miserable life.
