Chapter 199:

Wait for the summons...

Sophia walked over in surprise. She took his hand in hers and looked gentle and quiet. She was completely different from before.

“Yes.”

RK only said one word, but it made Sophia raise her head proudly to look at Stella. Her eyes were filled with provocation, as if she was saying, “Look? Rene greeted me, and we held hands.”

“RK, take good care of your fiancée. Don’t let her appear in front of my son.”

“I am going to marry Sophia. In the future, she will be Adrian’s mother!”

Silence fell. The man’s words left Stella speechless.

She felt as if her heart had been pricked by a needle.

“Until I am still alive, I won’t let my son call someone else ‘Mom’!” Was she dead? Why did he have to find a stepmother for Adrian? When was Sophia’s turn to be the stepmother for Stella’s son?

Stella’s lips curled into a cold smile. But he added, “Wait for the summons. The next day at the latest!”

Stella felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar in an instant, and a bone-chilling coldness swept over her. The summons...

“RK, don’t go back on your word! You told me before that even if you wanted to compete for custody of Adrian, you would wait until he fully recovered. What’s the big deal now? You are a man. Why can’t you just keep your word?”

At that moment, Stella felt extremely ashamed. However, even if she said to go, it would not change the current situation at all.

RK wouldn’t change his mind.

She heard him say, “I want my son to come back to me as soon as possible and return to his ancestral roots!” Stella gritted her teeth.

Return to his ancestral roots? Hah, would the Kingston family recognize him?

In addition to bringing harm and pressure to Adrian, what else could it bring? “I won’t give in!”

Step into a new journey on .con Having said that, Stella gritted her teeth and turned around. She didn’t want to talk to him anymore.

“Stella,” Tristan approached her. Only when he was close to her could he feel that she was trembling.

She didn’t go back to the ward as she didn’t want Adrian to notice anything. She turned and walked out of the hospital. She finally stopped when Tristan pulled her.

“Tristan, will I lose?”

Stella was very afraid. How could she, an ordinary woman, compete with a man like Rene Kingston, who was powerful enough to dominate the entire city?

“Don’t worry. As long as I am here, I won’t let him use any means.” Tristan pulled her into his embrace and carefully patted her back with his wide palm. The trembling of her body made her frown.

Not far from them, Sophia watched. Standing side by side, she said, “Rene, my brother, and Stella are a good match. I think Stella is going to marry my brother. They hold each other so tightly, just like a couple!”

The woman’s words made the man unconsciously clench his fists.

Seeing that his expression was not good, Sophia deliberately kept quiet. The smile on her face gradually disappeared as she thought, “Rene... Is the person in your heart longer me?” In the past few years, his treatment of her had always fluctuated. Even a fool could see that he had changed.

“I am a little hungry. Let’s take Alia to eat something. Can we bring something for Adrian too?”

Sophia’s face was very gentle, and she looked demure. She was not as disrespectful as she had been in front of Stella.

“Yes.”

RK didn’t refuse. However, he didn’t want to go.

Thus, she heard him say, “You go and bring Alia out. I will wait for you here!”

“Okay.” Did he want to stay here to watch Stella?

How ridiculous. Could it be that the surrogate marriage of that year caused him to develop feelings for Stella?

Sophia felt a chill in her heart; however, she pretended not to know anything and turned around.

However, if she went to find Alia, how could the little girl pay attention to her?

“Alia, be a good girl. Come with me. Your dad asked me to look for you. Let’s go eat something together.” Sophia’s voice was soft, like that of a gentle sister.

However, the little girl didn’t buy it. She played with the toys in her hand and said to Adrian as if she didn’t hear Sophia, “Adrian, look at this toy in my hand. Is it more awesome than the one that uncle gave you?”

“It’s quite good! Where did you buy it? It looks cool!”

Lying on the bed, Adrian wanted to recover immediately so that he could play with whatever toys he wanted. Now, lying there, he could only be envious of Alia.

His heart filled with bitterness.

“Alia, listen to me. Your daddy is waiting at the door. Shall we come back and play with toys later? We can also buy something delicious for Adrian!”
