Downstairs.
In the dining room.
Stella was enthusiastically telling Mason and Maisie all about it.
"When I woke up this morning, my mom and dad were hugging each other in bed right next to me! Doesn't that mean they made up?"
Maisie couldn't quite believe it. "Are you sure they were hugging in their sleep?"
"Of course! I even took a picture for proof."
Stella pulled up the photo on her smartwatch and shoved it right in front of Maisie's face.
Maisie took one look. It was undeniably true.
So what exactly had happened between Ivy and Alaric last night for them to make up so quickly?
"Now that Mommy and Daddy have made up, we can finally go back to The Starlight Estate!"
Stella's smile was brighter than the sun.
As long as her mom and dad could be together, she was the happiest girl in the world.
She was also incredibly excited for her mom to hurry up and give her a baby brother.
Mason looked at her, his expression suddenly stern as he rejected the idea.
"You can't go back. You're going to stay and live here with me. I'll raise you."
Stella immediately got upset, pouting her small lips in defiance.
"No way! I want to go home with my mom and dad. I don't want to stay here forever."
Mason pressed her, "What's wrong with staying here? I'll treat you well. I'll give you anything you could ever want."
Sebastian's daughter was his daughter.
Half of Mason's future fortune would go to this child.
So he absolutely would not allow Alaric to take her back to Capital City.
Stella was genuinely angry now, her little face scrunching up as she started to cry.
"I don't want to stay here! I have my own home, and I have my mom and dad. I want to be with my mom and dad!"
Ivy came downstairs just in time to hear the little girl's cries.
She rushed over and sat beside Stella, gently stroking her head.
"What's wrong, Stella? Why are you crying?"
The little girl leaned into Ivy, looking thoroughly aggrieved.
"Mommy, I don't want to stay here forever! I want to go home with you and Daddy. Let's go back to The Starlight Estate, okay?"
