Chapter 909 She's A Substitute
Chapter 909 She's A Substitute
Archie was stunned and looked up at her.
Then he smiled and said, "Maybe."
They talked for a while. It was getting late, so they went back to their rooms to rest.
On the other side.
In Stephan's villa.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, Bella looked at her delicate face in the mirror.
She thought she was beautiful, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move that man.
Even if she risked his life for him and came to this place to stay with another man, Felix only loved that
woman.
Thinking of that woman, Bella gritted her teeth with hatred.
She didn't know where Queeny was.
But she hoped someone could kill Queeny.
Her eyes darkened. At this moment, the door of the bedroom was suddenly pushed open. Stephan
walked in with the smell of alcohol.
Bella was shocked and stood up in a hurry.
She turned around, forced a smile, and walked toward Stephan.
"Mr. Zaccardi, you're back."
Stephan looked at her. Although he was still conscious now, he was a little drunk.
He watched the woman approaching him. This familiar face was coming to him by crossing time.
He couldn't help reaching out to touch her face and calling her name.
"Alana..."
The smile on Bella's face froze.
These days, she was with Stephan, and everyone thought that Stephan loved her. After all, Stephan
was very good to her. He not only took her with him wherever he went but also promised to marry her Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
and had got a marriage certificate with her.
It was the dream of many women, but no one couldn't really achieve it.
But only Bella knew that every night when he came back and looked at her like this, he would call
another woman's name.
Therefore, not like what others thought, his love was not for her.
His love was just for the woman in his heart, and Bella was just a substitute.
Thinking of this, Bella laughed at herself with mockery.
Stephan didn't notice the change of her mood, and he continued.
"Alana, you're back, aren't you? You will never leave me alone, right?"
Bella held his hand and helped him to the bed. She said softly, "Yes, I'm back. I won't leave you again.
Mr. Zaccardi, let me get a wet towel to wash your face first, okay?"
Then she turned around and was about to go to the bathroom.
However, as soon as she stood up, she was caught by Stephan.
He looked at her in a daze and murmured, "Don't go, Alana. Don't leave me."
Bella paused.
Bitterness surged in her heart, but she still tried to be patient. She said gently, "I won't leave, Mr.
Zaccardi. Can you let go of me first? Your clothes are dirty. I'll get you a shirt and wash your face,
okay?"
Perhaps he had understood what she said, Stephan raised his head and his blurred eyes became a
little sober.
He nodded and said, "Okay."
Bella then stood up and went to the bathroom.
Soon, she came back with a wet towel and a shirt for him.
She wiped his face, changed his clothes, and helped him lie down.
Stephan held her hand with a gentle and pampering smile on his face and said, "Alana, come and
sleep with me."
Bella nodded and leaned against him.
It was a sweet night.
As time went by, Bella suddenly woke up.
She opened her eyes. It was dark around. After a while, she could clearly see things around her.
She was still in the bedroom of the Zaccardi family's villa. There was only her on the big bed. She didn't
know when Stephan left.
She was shocked and quickly got up and walked out.
The dim light came from the study.
She walked to the study in darkness. Through the narrow crack of the door, she saw Stephan sitting
inside and looking at the big screen in front of him with a smile.
On the big screen, a video was being played, in which a woman was drawing. She had a gentle and
beautiful face. She looked at Stephan with a happy smile and asked, "Stephan, how is my drawing?"
Stephan smiled in the video, "Not bad."
The woman laughed happily. The sun shone on her face, making her look like the princess in the
castle.
All of a sudden, Bella's face turned cold.
Looking at the scene, she felt a chill in her heart.
Without making any sound, she turned around and walked towards the bedroom.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Felix called Ford and asked him about the result of his investigation.
Ford told him the information he had got. Soon, Felix shared the information with Archie and Natalia.
The three people from the Zaccardi family who had appeared at Queeny's last missing place had been
found.
They were now in an underground casino in Othua. They were not under control or monitored.
Looking at the investigation result, Archie frowned and felt strange.
He asked in a low voice, "Did you alert them?"
Ford shook his head and said, "Not yet. I came back as soon as I found out their hiding place. Although
my men are still watching them, I've already asked them not to alert the enemy without my order."
Archie nodded.
Felix stood up and said, "I'm going to Othua right now."
Archie stopped him.
Archie asked, "Don't you think you should talk to Stephan first?"
Felix thought about this.
Archie explained, "They are the members of the Zaccardi family. We are not sure yet whether that
mysterious force is really the Zaccardi family or not. If it is not necessary, you'd better not break up with
them. Go to find Stephan first. I will send someone to look for Queeny. We move at the same time, and
that will be more useful."
He was telling the truth, so although Felix was anxious, he agreed.
At noon, Felix arrived at Stephan's villa.
Seeing him, Stephan smiled and said, "Hey, what brings you here, Felix? Come in and have a seat."
In fact, Stephan wasn't the core member of the Zaccardi family, but because of his talent, intelligence
and wisdom, he had been highly valued by the upper members of the family.
Felix walked over expressionlessly and said in a low voice, "I come here today to ask you something."
Stephan paused.
He observed Felix's expression. Although Stephan was still smiling, his smile had become a little
colder.
