NovelApexChapter 495:
Stella, who had fainted, did not wake up for an entire day.
Her memory had always been vague and lingered in the past.
Perhaps it was instinct that made her long to return to the life she wanted.
At that time, Stella had just entered her second year of college. She should have been living carefree during her
remaining three years at university. But because of his appearance, everything had ruined those years.
At that time, due to sfinancial problems in the Richard family’s company, RK from the Kingston family
suddenly appeared in City X and offered to help the Richard family through their crisis. The reason was very
simple: he wanted to marry his daughter.
Originally, Stella's sister, Sophia, should have been responsible for this. However, Sophia and James Johnson
were passionately in love and unwilling to marry a stranger they had never met. At this point, the role of the
sacrificial pawn fell to Stella.
Stella’s stepmother, Isabella, and Sophia were discussing with David, Stella’s father, about getting Stella to
marry RK.
Thus, Stella becthe bride-to-be.

And she couldn't stop the wedding. She didn’t want her father to beg others at such a young age.
Stella returned to college after a very unhappy dinner at home.
When Stella returned, everyone was still in the self-study room, so the campus was empty.
Stella walked alone along the campus path, reflecting on what had happened that day.

“Hey, Stella, what are you thinking about? You seem so absorbed.” Damien suddenly jumped out from behind
her and startled her.
“You don’t understand my sadness!” Stella looked up at the sky. Gazing at the starless sky, she felt a sense of
hopelessness in her heart.
“Why don’t you tellyour sorrow? | can help you analyze how to deal with it.”
“You...? Forget it.” Stella glanced at Damien and walked toward the dormitory, leaving him staring at her
retreating figure.
“Stella, when will you understand my feelings for you? Is it that hard to notice? Everyone knows that I like you,
but you don’t seem to know. Are you pretending not to know?”
“Stella, you're back. How do you feel after going home? Did they bully you?” Emily looked listless.
As soon as Stella returned, she climbed onto the bed and buried her head in the quilt, leaving Emily worried
about her.
“He didn’t bully me, but...”
“But what? Hurry up and tell me; don’t worry about me.” Emily ran to Stella's side and pulled her up.
“I am getting married. Sob, sob... | don’t want to get married so early! Besides, | don’t even know who he is or
what he looks like. | want to marry someone | love! Ah, ah, ah...”
Stella said unhappily.
“I don’t think it’s too late. Go hand tell them you're going to get married only after you finish college.” Emily
asked in surprise, “What happened to your family? Why did they let you get married in your second year?”
“Yes, it shouldn't have been me, but...”
“What are you talking about? Don’t dawdle. Is it because of the trap Sophia set for you?” Emily asked.
Stella usually shared a lot about her hlife with Emily, so now that something serious had happened, Emily
could guess. “Sophia was supposed to be the one to get married, but she said she was about to get engaged to
James Johnson while she was in love. That's why she pushedinto this.”
“F*ck, why are they so inhumane? You're only in your second year, and they want you to get married. That
Sophia is heartless! Even if she has a boyfriend, she can’t push you out like this!”
Emily said angrily, her frustration palpable. She wished she could avenge Stella right then.
“What can | do...? | can’t just watch the Richard family fall apart like this.” Stella lowered her head as she spoke.
Emily asked with concern, “Do you know who it is?”
Stella shook her head. “I don’t know what he looks like. All | know is that his nis Rene Kingston, RK.”
“Rene Kingston? That's the rich guy!” Emily exclaimed in surprise.
Stella sat up, holding a pillow in her arms, lost in thought.
His identity still confused her. After all, they were just students now, so they didn’t know much about the outside
world.
Meanwhile, Emily stood up and took her mobile phone to the bathroom to secretly call Tristan.
“Brother Tristan.”
“Mm, what's wrong, Emily? Why are you callingat this hour?”
“Brother Tristan, don’t you know that Stella is getting married?”
Emily heard the sound of something breaking on the other side of the phone.
“Brother Tristan, are you okay?” Emily assumed Tristan knew about Stella's upcoming marriage and called to ask
about the situation, but she didn't expect he was unaware.
“It’s okay. How did you find out that Stella is getting married? With whom? When did this happen?” On the other
end of the phone, Tristan looked at the broken cup under his feet, frowning.
