A Miracle Fault

Chapter 9 Can He Suppress His Desire?

She turned on the light while holding the towel.

She walked over to the night table. Seeing that everything here was so spotless, she had no idea how to clean it.

'What a weird guy! His bedroom is so clean as if no one has ever lived here. Why did he ask me to clean it?'

She opened the closet and saw that there filled with dark color shirts, black pants and tailored suit, which looked as cold as him.

'What a freak!' She thought to herself.

But she still sorted them out again and then organized neatly.

When she finished and went downstairs, Paul walked over with a smile, "Mrs. Stefan, what do you want for lunch? I will make Madison prepared."

Emmeline nodded, "I am not picky about food. Just get the same food as Master Stefan's for me."

"He has gone out. He might probably be back at night." Paul answered with a smile.

"Gone out? How did he go out? Who will take care of him?" Emmeline was stunned. She thought that at least Stefan should have someone following him. But now Paul was still here. She couldn't believe that he had actually gone out by himself.

"It's okay. It was Mr. Jaiden who came here to pick him up." Paul nodded while noticing the caring eyes of Emmeline. It seemed that this girl wasn't that cold-blooded as he had once heard of. And she seemed to care about Stefan. He assumed that if it weren't for the fact that Anayah was the girlfriend of Frank, it should be a nice relationship between her and Stefan.

When hearing that Stefan went out with his friend, Emmeline nodded, "Okay, just get me some food whatever it is."

Paul then went to the kitchen to tell the cook. Emmeline sat on the couch, wondering if she should notice Agnes and Lena. After all, she just went 'missing' suddenly. Perhaps all her friends would be quite worried about her.

She walked upstairs and swiped on her phone. Suddenly, dozens of missed call notice and messages were shown on the screen.

She clicked to check and noticed that they were all sent by her friends, among which Antonio took the greatest proportion.

'Emmeline, why don't you attend the class?'

'Emmeline! Please text me back ASAP! My parents have allowed me to go to America! We will leave a year later!'

'Emmeline! Please text me back! I can't find you!'

…

Dozens of Antonio's messages were piled up.

'Girl, get your ass back to the class!' By Agnes.

'Emmeline! Where are you now? Antonio is about to go crazy!' By Lena.

'I will go to your house to get you out if you still pretended to be missing!' By Agnes.

When seeing that, Emmeline couldn't help shedding tears. That was her own choice for the sake of her father. She gave up everything just to return his favor of offering her a home when she was five.

At the last of the messages list, she saw a text from her father, 'Emmeline, I am so sorry!'

Tear kept streaming down her eyes continuously. She covered her mouth and tried to hold back her sound of crying.

However, a servant outside still noticed her sob.

She sneaked downstairs and told Paul about it.

Paul frowned, "Get to work! It's none of your business."

The servant immediately turned around and left.

After crying, Emmeline wiped away her tears. Then she texted to both Agnes and Lena, 'I need to go to somewhere far away. You don't need to look for me and ask me anything about it. I will be back a year later.'

Then she texted Antonio, 'Everyone is destined to do something they should do though they are no willing to. I am just a lonely drifter. Thank you for your love and concern during the past six months. Forget about me! Don't ask me why. Just go to America. Perhaps we will meet one day. But please, just let me disappear for the time being!'

As soon as she finished the text, she powered off her phone.

Someone knocked the door and then pushed it opened, "Mrs. Stefan, time for lunch." Paul stood at the door to look at this depressed girl.

Emmeline forced out a smile, "Okay."

She then went downstairs and took some food. After that, she locked herself in the bedroom again.

Astor Entertainment Center was the biggest and most famous club for entertainment. The manager, Asher Roberts, was in charge of everything here. But he was not the owner.

The real owner had been keeping himself as a secret. It was said that the owner might be one of those rich guys from Lille, France.

There were two men sitting in the private box on the top floor. The wine in the glass shone under the light. Stefan pushed the door opened and strode inside.

"Damn! Stefan, you just walk in like that?" A man in black suit on the sofa immediately jumped up. His attractive face looked stunned.

The man following behind shrugged while looking at them.

Stefan took a seat and then drained a glass of wine.

Asher Roberts, Arthur Roberts and Jaiden Cole were the men present here. They were all the best friends of Stefan. And Arthur was actually the president of the Tenba Group, a French Commercial tycoon.

Asher was his brother, also known as the manager of Astor Entertainment Center. He was also the president of the branch in X City of the Roberts Group. And Jaiden was the founder of BK Underworld, an awesome group in Europe.

However, no one knew except for themselves that Stefan was actually the real boss behind.

At the age of 18, Stefan swore to himself that he would stand up himself and he would never simply give up everything that belonged to him. And he did it! Finally, he managed to recover his own legs.

But no one else knew about it.

Though no one knew the exact amount of value of 40% shares of the Byrne Group, Stefan was sure about himself that the property he owned now had been multiples of the Byrne Groups.

"Stefan, you should know that now it's quite essential. You should be alert and don't let yourself exposed!" Arthur looked at him and continued, "As far as I am concerned, Frank has already united all the other shareholders. And he will take over the group and be the president in June. Your grandpa can't stop him anymore."

Then Jaiden said, "I heard that he has bribed a Mexico Gang to get prepared for his move."

Stefan kept his lips pressed. But then his cold face showed a sneer, "Just let him be. I want him to fall on the top that day!"

"Wow, that would be cool, right? But Stefan, you just took away his girl. Did you find something interesting from her?" Jaiden teased.

While everyone was staring at his cold face, Asher continued, "Come on, just tell me about it. How was your wedding night? Did she make a scene?"

As soon as he asked so, the three of them all stared at Stefan.

"I can't find anything fishy for the time being. She is really good at pretending." Stefan couldn't help feeling burning hot when recalled her innocents-looking eyes.

Asher burst into laughter, "Hey, Stefan, you have been abstinent for years. I bet that you want to bang her, right? After all, she has officially married you! You can do anything you want. I am sure it will drive Frank crazy!"

After saying that, he suddenly noticed the cold gaze of Stefan. He couldn't help shutting his own mouth.

Though Jaiden had been wearing a repellent face, he sometimes also liked to tease Stefan just like Asher.

Jaiden also laughed out, "Did you guys see that? He is obviously burning with desire! But Stefan, are you really going to live with her for a lifetime? As far as I know about Anayah, Frank took her virginity when she was only 17. She has been spoiled and arrogant! Besides, she is quite sluttish!"
