Chapter 25 I can protect you

Chapter 25: Chapter 25 I can protect you

Adrian dragged his small legs with rabbit slippers and walked toward Stella’s side. As he walked, he asked...

"Darling... What are you doing with my phone?"

After that, he tiptoes to see if she found something or not... Sure enough, he saw Stella looking at the Uncle’s photos sitting inside the car...

After that, in just a second...

Stella deleted all his pictures from his phone...

"Darling... Why did you delete my pictures?"

Adrian almost screamed at Stella. The little fellow face filled with unhappiness.

Stella didn’t care about his sad face and returned the phone to him and said unhappiness... "From now on you are not allowed to take anyone’s pictures secretly..."

Adrian held back her phone and said, "Darling... How can you say that? I was thinking about you. I have to check what kind of man that Uncle was. Is he handsome or not? If he is not handsome, we don’t want him... Otherwise, he will destroy his descendants. But now I am not worried... Because that Uncle is quite handsome. In the future, if you and Uncle had the child, he must be quite good-looking..."

Stella held her hand and felt speechless...

"Was indirectly this b*rt... Praising himself?"

Stella thought in her heart.

Emily who was just passing by the door hear his words and couldn’t hold back her laughter. She walks inside and teases him in a very "serious manner..."

She pinched her chubby cheeks and said..."Yes, our Adrian is right. I am sure if your mother and that Uncle had a child in the future, he will as handsome as you..."

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

Her son didn’t know anything and said all this because of his innocence. But she... She was doing it on a purpose, didn’t she?

Adrian doesn’t know things about the adult world. He just looked at her and pouted and said proudly, "But he will not be more handsome than me."

Stella just knocked on her head but decided to remain silent.

Adrian followed Stella holding his mobile phone tightly in his arms to the bedroom.

He had a smile on his chubby face and he asked, "Darling, Did Great Grandma want to introduce that Uncle to you? Is he going to be my stepfather?"

What stepfather? He is your biological father okay...?

Stella thought in her heart.

But, looking at Adrian, she feels like he had a good impression of this man. Because whenever someone talked about him, Adrian become like a curious baby, wanting to know more about him...

Maybe because they had a blood relationship...

People didn’t say in vain that blood is thicker than water...

Stella looked at her chubby face and don’t know what to say. She held his small chubby face in her hand and squatted in front of him and asked...

"Baby! Do you want a father that much?"

"Yes."

Adrian replied without even thinking but he quickly found out that his Darling face looked serious and changed his words... "No... If you don’t like and want to be single... I don’t mind. At worst... When I will grow up, I will support you.

For Adrian, in his life, Stella always comes first in everything. As long as Stella doesn’t like it, he will also don’t like it...

Just like now, "If she doesn’t want that uncle to be his stepfather, he also doesn’t want it..."

Anyway, he only wants his darling to be happy...

Stella held the little boy in her arms and hugs him. Stella know that because she still wasn’t able to give up on him, she didn’t want to continue a new relationship. And because of her, Adrian had to tolerate her, who is only five years old.

She held his cheeks and kissed him.

Because of her emotions and struggles, she ignored Adrian’s feeling that he needed a father in his life...

It was only because he is sensible and obedient, he didn’t mention anything about after in front of his mother...

However, which child in the world doesn’t want a father? Which child in the world doesn’t want to experience fatherly love in his life...

As for Adrian... He had never experienced fatherly love since he was born. But he always pretends in front of her that he doesn’t care...

The more Stella thought like this the more guilty and sorry she felt for Adrian...

Stella held him more tightly in his arms and, "Mom will find a father for you later."

"I don’t want a father who doesn’t love Darling more than me."

Adrian said seriously.

At the same time, Stella also thought in her heart, "I also don’t want a man who doesn’t love Adrian as much as I do."

After letting Adrian fall asleep, Stella took her phone and wanted to call her grandmother to ask if she was asleep or not when she saw a message on her phone...

It was a message from David Richard.

He wanted her to go back for a meal on weekends.

Stella doesn’t know how long it’s been, Since she didn’t have gone to the Richard family.

After she married RK, she didn’t go back to the Richard family again. Even after she got divorced, she didn’t plan to go there...

Even David Richard is her closest relative...

But ever since, David Richard married another woman and bring her and her daughter back home, it was more like visiting another’s house...

Stella took her phone and send a message that she didn’t want to go back when David Richard called her...

As she picked up, his voice come at the other end of the phone...

"Stella it’s been so long since you didn’t come back home. Come back for a meal. I miss you."

David’s helpless voice comes to another end of the phone... "I know you always had some problems with Sophia... Sigh... But you both are my daughters and I don’t want to see both of you like this..."

It was not that he didn’t see it... It’s just that he doesn’t want to see it...

Of course, Stella didn’t want to embarrass him because no matter what, he was still her father. "Dad... If you want to see me, then let’s eat out... As for Richard’s family... I don’t want to go."

In the past when she saw her father taking care of another woman and her daughter in front of her, she felt like she didn’t belong there...

"What are you saying? No matter what, it was still your home. Can’t you just come back to see me and have a meal with me?"

David’s angry voice comes from the other end of the phone...

At the end...

She still agreed. What can she do?..

In the end, he was still her father...

*****

Next day.

Before Stella went out, Adrian was still with her. When he saw her picking clothes for went out, the little fellow that she was going on a date with that uncle.

Thus, he decides to pick clothes for her...

After looking for so long, finally, he found a dark blue knee-length dress for her with a silver belt around its waist in her wardrobe and took it for her...

"Darling, you wear this."

Stella just took a simple white shirt and a pair of jeans and decide to wear them. She looked at Adrian and said...

"It’s Ok. I will wear this."

"Ahh... No... How can you wear this?"

Adrian looked at the clothes in her hand and refused. "Darling, how can you wear something like that on a date? That Uncle doesn’t like it."

"Hugh?"

Stella looked at him in shock...

Who said that she was going on a date? What’s more?.. Who told him that she was going on a date with that uncle?"

"Adrian I was going home for a meal, not on a date..."

Stella explained to him.

Adrian nodded in half understanding.

He was in the room when he heard his Darling and Grandmother that, his Darling had an older sister at home and she was not good to her darling.

Anyway, if she was good, why did she decide to choose to live outside with him?

She must have a bad relationship with her sister.

Hearing this Adrian put the dress in her hand and said, "Darling then you must wear it. You can’t look weak in front of them."

"What’s more, if you want I can go with you to protect to."

"No, you don’t have to come. Just stay home and wait for me to come back..."

If she takes him with her... She doesn’t know what kind of blunder will happen...

Adrian just nodded.

After being told by Adrian, Stella decides to wear that blue dress.

Until she went to the Richard family...

When she came it was her father David Richard, who opened the door for her. He looked at her and said, "Stella here you are... Come inside and sit."

But before she could even step inside a sharp voice come, "Dad, didn’t I tell you don’t let her come back? Why did you call her?"

It was Sophia who come down from stairs.

"Don’t say this."

David looked at her and said, "Why can’t she come? Her last name is also Richard and it was also her home."

"Hmmp."

Sophia walk over and sat beside Isabella on the sofa.

Isabella is Sophia’s mother. After her mother died, not after a long, David Richard brought her whole family back home with him...

There is also one more...

Isabella also had a son with her ex-husband.

"Stella sits inside the house. Dad is here."

David said.

Anyway, Stella had long gotten too used to this kind of scene of mother and daughter pair. What’s more, because Isabella doesn’t like her identity, she often helps Sophia to bully her...

However, if Isabella’s son saw this, he would help Stella.

"You... Why did you dress up today? Do you want to seduce my brother?"

After Sophia said, she looked at the person sitting on the other side meaningfully.

Stella didn’t even need to turn her head to look who is he. From the moment she stepped into the Richard family, she can feel pair of eyes looking at her...

Tristan Davis sat on the single sofa on the other side. He was wearing simple and casual clothes. A white tee shirt, gray trousers. But he still looked very handsome.

Before the age of 19, Stella lived in this house with the help of this man...

But at the age of 19...

But ever since, She married RK. After that Tristan left the country and went abroad and never come back again...

Later when Tristan heard that Stella and RK had divorced he returned to the country to find her back...

But didn’t find her anywhere...

It’s been nine years since they had not seen each other...

He was just five years older than her, just like brother and sister. But now, after seeing him for so many years later...

He becomes calmer and more mature. When he saw her again, Tristan was like another person.

Tristan looked away from Stella.

He didn’t say anything...

In the past, as long as Sophia said something bad about her, Tristan was the first one to speak and fight for her...

Since he was a child, he had always protected Stella and stood by her side, so that she can’t feel uncomfortable for the whole day because of some people’s unpleasant words. Therefore Tristan never let Stella get hurt...

Seeing this, Sophia smiled more proudly, "Stella look, now even Tristan didn’t seem to be happy to see you. Why did you have to come back?"

"Sophia shut up."

David was very angry. They were both of his daughters and he didn’t want anyone of them to get hurt.

"The relationship between other sisters was so good. I don’t know how can the relationship between you two sisters like this?"

David said, "Call Rene and ask if he had time to come back there home for dinner today. Our whole family is here, call him here."
