Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Jasper didn’t say anything.

“Don’t tell me that you took it seriously? You’re such an inarticulate and unfathomable person. I really don’t know what Stella likes about you. Your silence?” Allen continued to joke around.

Jasper remained silent.

Allen sighed. “You don’t have to see me off tomorrow. I will feel uneasy if I see you. Coming alone and leaving alone is quite good actually. I didn’t gain anything, and I didn’t lose anything either. Good night. Be happy every day.”

“Alright,” Jasper replied in a deep voice.

Jasper really did make Allen feel uneasy.

When he told him to be happy every day, Jasper replied concisely, but he ignored the whole conversation before that.

Ah, he didn’t want to lower himself to his level anymore.

He hung up the phone and slowly made his way upstairs to have a good sleep. He would be leaving early morning the next day…

…

Stella woke up quite early the next day and she looked at her mobile phone out of habit. It was 6. 20 a. m.

She brushed her teeth and went downstairs. Then, she saw a note on the coffee table. She held it up and took a look.

It was Allen’s handwriting.

“I was afraid that I might be unwilling to leave if I saw you and that I might trouble you for a few more days and eat a few more meals with you. So, I left early in the morning. I think that I would look cooler that way too. When I visit you next time, I will bring my wife too.” Allen drew a smiling face at the end of the note.

Stella smiled.

Allen was a person who refused to bring trouble to others and didn’t want others to worry about him.

He was actually very rational, to the point that he would always know what he should do.

He was also a person that made people feel at ease.

She called Allen.

Allen answered, “You’re up early.”

“Yeah, what time is your flight?” Stella asked.

Allen said, “It’s at 6. 50 a. m., so it’s too late for you to come now. I am grateful that you thought of me. I’m having breakfast right now. Don’t forget to eat. You only have one body.”

“Have a safe trip home. I look forward to you bringing your girlfriend to me as soon as possible,” Stella said with a smile.

“I hope so. Alright, I’m going to continue my breakfast. I’m hanging up,” Allen then hung up the phone.

Stella took in a deep breath. It had been lively for the past few days, so it felt particularly lonely that day. She was the only one left in the house.

She then lit a scented candle and played some beautiful music. She made breakfast before going out to water the flowers and feed the fishes in the pond. After that, she went back to the kitchen and fried an egg. She then took out some kimchi, ate some porridge, and went out.

She went to a florist to buy some fresh flowers. After that, she redecorated the room. One could smell the scent of nature with a deep breath.

She had an appointment with a patient at 10 a. m. that day, so she could stay at home for a little while longer. She lay on the sofa, took a collection of poems, and flipped through it.

Her cell phone rang.

She sighed. At that hour, it was most likely the police station calling.

It was indeed Vann’s caller ID on the screen. She answered it.

“Stella, when are you free today?” Vann asked.

“I have a patient at 10 a. m. later, then two more patients in the afternoon. I’m afraid that I may be busy for the whole day,” Stella said.

“Uh, could you take some time to come over? There’s a tricky case here,” Vann said politely.

“In that case, could you give me some time off on the weekend? I want to have a good rest,” Stella said helplessly.

“It’s Friday today. If you could solve the case by today, you could rest on the weekend. I promise that I won’t give any new cases to you,” Vann said affirmatively.

Stella glanced at the time, “I’ll be free around noon.”

“Sure. I’ll ask them to come by at noon. Lunch is on me,” Vann said.

Stella couldn’t read the poem calmly anymore after receiving the case.

She simply went to the kitchen. Seeing that there was still a lot of rice left, she decided to make five rolls of sushi out of it. She then put it into a disposable box and took a bottle of seafood sauce that she made herself from the refrigerator. She put them in a bag together and went to work after that.

She put the bag in the refrigerator in the company.

“Doctor Grace, the patient yesterday who wanted to be hypnotized asked for your availability,” Archer asked.

“Did her parents agree to it?” Stella asked.

“Yes,” Archer nodded.

“My schedule is free on Wednesday afternoon. Arrange for her to come around 2 p. m. on Wednesday,” Stella said.

“Huh? Does she need to wait for such a long time?” Archer was puzzled.

Stella smiled slightly and said, “She will be able to have more time to think it over properly, and decide on what she really wants.”

“Okay, thank you for the lesson,” Archer thanked Stella.

Stella entered the treatment room and looked through the patient’s information.

The patient last week had been treated and he didn’t need to come over anymore. The patient in the treatment room was a first-timer. It was stated in the file that he was a 62-year-old man, and his name was Owen Hadley. The psychological problem he was facing was that he had a habit of stealing.

Owen was from A Country, and his family was very well off. He lived with his son in the United States, and his son was engaged in international trade. His company was very large, and they all lived in a mansion that was worth 30 million dollars.

However, that old man had seen 25 psychologists.

Stella smiled. After reading through his information, she had a rough idea of the reason behind his kleptomania.

Owen pushed the door open and came in without knocking, then sat down on the sofa.

Stella looked at him. His hair was already white. He was wearing a flowery shirt, beach trunks, slippers, a gold necklace, a Patek Philippe watch, and an emerald ring.

Stella smiled.

“What are you smiling at? Do you think that you look good when you smile? Your smile looks fake. Don’t think that I don’t know anything. You look like you are trying to cheat me of my money with your smile,” Owen said in an unfriendly tone.

Stella chuckled, got up, and poured a glass of water for the old man calmly.

The old man was puzzled, “How much is this cup of water?”

“I won’t charge for this cup of water,” Stella said in a pleasant voice.

“Don’t think that I don’t know that you are going to include this in the diagnosis fee. Do you really think that you could deceive me? I won’t drink it,” Owen pushed Stella’s hand away rudely.

Stella did not argue with him. She put the cup of water on the table.

She then sat across him and said, “According to your information, you often steal things.”

“Your field of people only know how to chat casually. I am not happy to chat with you. Don’t think about making money off my son,” Owen said stubbornly.

“Actually, even if you don’t say anything when you come in, you will still be charged,” Stella said.

Owen immediately stood up and walked towards the door.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Stella said calmly, “I’m going to charge you the same price whether you chat with me for a minute or an hour.”

Owen stopped, turned back to sit on the sofa, and said, “What do you want to talk about? I don’t like you. I’ll tell my son later that you only want to seek fame. You don’t know anything, and you’re no better than the psychologist I went to last time. I’d rather go back to that psychologist.”
