"The entire wealthy circle in Seattle knew how much Stella Carlson loved Aaron Malone. People watched the childhood sweethearts grow from inexperience to maturity, finally getting married in a grand wedding ceremony.

On the day of the wedding, despite the alliance between the Carlson and Malone families, the groom ran away. Stella knew that Aaron had rushed to L.A. to take care of his ex-girlfriend, who had attempted suicide.

Unwilling to become the laughingstock of all Seattle, she gritted her teeth and dialed the number of her adversary, her tone almost commanding, "Ethan, come and marry me now. This is your only chance for revenge."

On the other end, Ethan Powers raised an eyebrow as he gripped his phone, staring at the floor littered with cigarette butts. "Did the groom run away?" he asked. "My darling."

Ethan's gaze lingered on her face for a moment. Without insisting on hearing it again, he pulled her into his arms and sat down on the sofa in the bedroom. He smoothed out her rumpled clothes and smiled, "Wasn't I supposed to go to Mountside County? Although I have a business trip next month, I can accompany you on a trip before that."


As the year-end approached, both of them were busy with work. He was leaving for a business trip to England next week, and Stella was soon heading overseas to lead a team in competing for the CF collaboration.
