Chapter 731
That was why even though there was completely no one around, he liked seeing her playing a timid game of hide
and-seek.
Stella gradually realized that something was wrong.
She could only hear Weston’s footsteps and nothing else.
She poked her head out again and saw something familiar upon exiting the elevator. “This is the apartment we
came to previously?”
Weston didn’t reply to her.
He finally her down after entering the apartment.
Weston’s oversized jacket slipped off and revealed her shoulders, further emphasizing how petite she was.
“Why did you bring me here?” Weston pulled her toward the doorway and recorded her facial features and
fingerprints in the security system.“ From now on, you’ll be staying here.”
Stella looked dazedly at his deft movements. “Are I supposed to stay in Stardust Mansion?”

can always go back to Stardust Mansion over the
weekends.”
Stella nodded, finally understanding his intentions. “Do you have things to attend to at Ahn City during this period?”
“The western suburbs project has come to a close , and my main businesses remain in Ahn City. I won’t be going to
Fern City for the time being.”
Stella pursed her lips. “You might not need to be at Fern City, but I do…” “Roger is already overseas. What do you
need to be there for?” Weston arched his brow.
Stella remained silent as Weston caressed her head. “Stay with me.”
No matter in which city, Weston would never let her be alone.
Stella knew that fact clearly and didn’t bother arguing with him about it.
She surveyed her surroundings which appeared different from the previous time she came.
Weston had always liked his place minimalistic. There were no other colors in here except for black and white.
It was minimalistic to the extreme, yet still classy and tasteful in its furnishings.
This time, however, the furnishings appeared more
personable and less cold. It was clear that adjustments had been made to the apartment.
She walked further in to take a closer look. The layout of the apartment was slightly similar to that of Stardust
Mansion, with a study for Weston and a workstation for her.
It was a home that was abundant in its facilities.
Except for… Stella spotted a pastel pink piano in one of the rooms and halted in her footsteps.
She felt a warmth approach her from behind.
Weston hugged her from behind and asked, “Try it out. See if you like it?”
Stella took a deep breath, walked slowly toward the piano, and sat down on it. She lifted the fallboard and pressed
on a few random black and white keys as she felt a surge of anxiety and reminiscence overwhelm her. Her fingers

trembled ever so slightly, but the smile on her face was genuinely exuberant. “It sounds really good…”
What’s more, it was in pink. A piano in such a sweet, pastel pink was difficult to find, to say the least, and had
clearly been custom-made.
Weston stood right behind and looked down at her, a tenderness he didn’t even notice filling his eyes. “Try playing a
piece on it.”
Stella nodded and began playing “Ballade pour Adeline.”
A melodious and elegant tune began to fill the room.
She had once played the piano in The Doghouse with a rather frivolous pianist.
She played “Sonate Pathétique” at that time, which sounded more sorrowful than this piece. This piece was much
more light-hearted.
Weston looked at her side profile as a thought entered his mind.
Perhaps, just maybe, they might have a daughter together in the future.
One who would learn how to play musical instruments just like her, be it the piano or violin. Or, she could learn to
dance. That would be pretty good, too.
