There were plenty of illegitimate children who lived well, wielded great power, and even seized control of their families.
The main reason he'd been bullied was simply that he was too weak.
This world was never fair. It was a world where the strong were revered and the weak submitted. Survival of the fittest was the law of nature.
Seeing that Stella Cameron remained silent, Leonard Lerman added, "But since you don't like it, I'll try not to harm innocent people in the future."
Stella said nothing.
If she told him not to, those innocent people might end up just like she once had.
But she wasn't so much of a saint that she would maintain any kind of connection with Leonard for the sake of strangers she didn't even know.
Silence was the best option.
Perhaps because she was about to leave, Leonard was more talkative than usual.
He said, "I arranged for the share transfer before I came here. All you need to do is sign, and it will take effect immediately. My assistant will handle the rest of the paperwork for you."
Stella frowned. "I don't want your things."
Leonard looked at her. "Then wouldn't you have wasted this past month for nothing?"
Stella replied, "Surviving a month in the hands of an outlaw like you is already a blessing. How could I dare ask for more? If I accepted your shares, who knows what kind of stories people would spin about us. It might not be that I was kidnapped and missing, but that I ran away with you."

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....

Why would the author of this book do that to Stella? Such cruelty!...
So many chapters are incomplete. Missing pages. Hard to get continuity...
