Stella Grace looked at Linda and smiled.
She had studied about human character when she studied psychology in the United States.
Most of the time, a person’s character had something to do with the way they were raised. Children who came from a happy family were usually cheerful, while children who came from an unfortunate family were usually more depressed. However, there were many kinds of happy families, so there would be differences in their character.
At first glance, Stella knew that Linda had grown up in a loving family. She was lively, bubbly, cute, and unrestrained.
If Stella’s mother hadn’t gone missing, would she too have such an optimistic character?
This kind of character was probably more likable, unlike hers…
Stella’s eyes dimmed when she thought of Jasper Milton.
“Do you know any good men? You could introduce them to Linda,” Allen’s grandmother asked,
Stella thought for a moment and pointed at Allen, “He’s the best man I’ve ever met.”
Linda chuckled and said, “You two are just showing off now. Allen is a good man, but he doesn’t like me.”
“It’s not that I don’t like you, we’re just not suitable for each other,” Allen corrected her.
“Pfft, there’s no need to explain. I don’t care anyway,” Linda stuck her tongue out again.
“She likes bad boys,” the other girl said while pointing at Linda.
Linda teased her, “Nonsense, you’re the one who likes bad boys.”
Stella watched them as they teased each other. A smile crept across her face.
She liked this feeling of harmony and peace. It was full of joy and relaxation. It was just like the feeling of warm sunshine shining on her body on a winter afternoon.
“They are all little kids,” Allen said to Stella.
“It’s nice,” Stella said softly.
When the car arrived at the entrance of A City Grand Hotel, Stella got out of the car. The waiter brought them to the private room that Stella had reserved earlier.
“Allen, I know of a prophet. Do you want to see him? He has a strange character. He only prophesizes for three people every day for free. It all depends on his mood,” Stella recommended to Allen.
“Well, that sounds interesting, but would he be able to prophesize for me? I’m French.”
Stella shrugged and said, “Well, you would only know once you try it, wouldn’t you? The scenery there is nice too. You could just take it as a sightseeing trip if it doesn’t work out.”
“Sounds good,” Allen looked at Stella dotingly, his eyes full of love.
Allen’s grandmother glanced at Allen and hit his hand.
Allen looked at his grandmother and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Let’s go to the movies together tonight. I want to watch a movie,” His grandmother said with a smile.
“I heard that a movie with a high rating was just aired recently. I’ve watched it before. I’ll buy the tickets now. We could watch it together at night,” Stella recommended.
“Great, great,” Allen’s grandmother smiled.
They took their seats in the private room, and Stella ordered the dishes.
Halfway through the meal, Linda went out and came back, whispering to the other girl’s ear.
“That’s Michelle. The two of them are good friends. They used to play together often,” Allen introduced Michelle.
“What are you talking about? Tell us too,” Allen’s grandmother said.
“There are two men over there who are very handsome. One looks cool, just like a model in a cover magazine. The other is more charming and has a distinct aura. Do you want to go and have a look?” Linda pointed outside and said.
She was bold and generous.
“Is he as good looking as Allen?” Michelle asked.
“Almost, pretty much,” Linda said while pulling Michelle to go have a look.
Allen was curious, so he pulled Stella along to take a look.
They walked through a long corridor and turned another two corners.
Linda craned her neck and looked through the window of the door. “He’s so handsome, isn’t he?”
Stella took a glance and her face turned pale. She saw Jasper Milton and Frederick Addington.
Linda and Stella looked like each other. If Frederick were to see her, he would definitely talk to her. Her identity might be exposed then. “Allen, take them back. Hurry up, don’t let them find out.”
Allen looked at Stella in confusion.
“It’s Jasper and Frederick,” Stella explained.
Allen understood. He took their hands and walked away. “It’s time to continue our meal.”
Stella followed behind Allen and looked back at Jasper’s private room. Why were he and Frederick here?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt uneasy. She looked at Allen, who was still looking out of the door. “Allen, I have something to tell you.”
“Okay,” Allen got up first, followed by Stella. They walked out of the private room and entered the empty room next door.
“Are you worried that Linda will be discovered, and that they will know about your past identity through Linda?” Allen expressed her worries.
Stella nodded. “We can’t let Frederick find out.”
“After the paternity test tomorrow, Mr. Turner will be going back with Linda. If Frederick finds out before that, I will remind them not to say anything about you,” Allen said clearly.
Stella nodded.
Hopefully, they wouldn’t have the chance to meet.
They went back to the private room and saw that Linda was missing.
“Where’s Linda?” Allen asked.
“That naughty girl said that she was going to go get the phone numbers of the two handsome men. She was in a hurry. I think she really wants to marry someone from A Country,” Allen’s grandmother said helplessly.
Allen and Stella looked at each other and immediately rushed out.
Linda was already at the door of Jasper’s private room.
“Linda, don’t go in,” Allen shouted.
Linda pushed the door open.
Stella’s heart skipped a beat. Oh no. She was done for this time.
Linda came out and asked Allen, “Where are they? They were just here.”
Stella’s dead heart came back to life again.
“I’ll go out and look for them. They shouldn’t have gone too far,” Linda ran toward the door.
Allen grabbed her by the waist and stopped her. “Young girl, behave yourself. This is A Country, not Paris. They might have girlfriends. There are many handsome men around. You have just arrived here and you already want their numbers after seeing the two of them. If this goes on, you might end up with hundreds of numbers. Even if you’re looking for a boyfriend, that’s too much, don’t you think?”
Linda scratched her head and said, “You’re right. I got too excited. I’ll wait for a while then.”
Linda smiled and went back to the room.
“Do they know about me and Mr. Turner?” Stella asked Allen.
“No. Mr. Turner is a very conservative person. He won’t tell his children before making sure of everything,” Allen said with certainty.
“Even if it’s confirmed, it’s better not to reveal it,” Stella was worried.
“You may wish to discuss this with Mr. Turner after the test result is out. I’m sure he would respect your thoughts. After all, he had always felt that he owed your grandmother and your mother.”
Stella nodded and said, “Let’s talk about it after the result is out tomorrow.”
Before this, she had hoped that she was Mr. Turner’s granddaughter so she could get a little closer to Jasper. However, if there was a possibility of hidden danger, perhaps it would be better to hope otherwise.
