Jordan replied, "If I'm not good to her, then who would I be good to? I don't have any family, and she treats me like her own, so of course I want to be good to her."
Stella had wanted to ask about his family so many times, but every time, the words just got stuck in her throat.
Jordan said, "Stella, I know what you want to ask. Honestly, I want to tell you everything, too, but now just isn't the right time. I promise, one day you'll know it all."
Stella gave a strong nod.
Right now, Stella's face had a healthy glow, looking so much better than before. Even her lips looked rosier.
Jordan slowly leaned in toward her.
Stella was startled and instinctively jerked away.
Only then did Jordan realize he'd crossed a line, and he tried to say something. He stammered, "I am sorry."
Stella felt awkward, too. She said, "It's fine, um, I'll just go back to my room now." With that, she stood up and was about to leave.
But suddenly, Jordan reached out and pulled her back, sitting her down right in front of him. He kept his eyes on her, and there was something in his gaze that made her heart skip a beat.
"Stella, if you ever feel like dating someone, I hope you'll think of me first," he said.
Stella was stunned.
Jordan said, "Don't be so hard on yourself. You're amazing—there's no one out there better than you. No matter what happened before, you still have a chance to start over." His voice was softer than ever, and his eyes were just mesmerizing.
Jordan was ridiculously handsome; whenever Stella was near him, her heart raced out of control. And he had always treated her so well.
Jordan would go shirtless around the house from time to time. It felt like he was always teasing Stella, whether he realized it or not.
Stella didn't answer. She just pushed him away and went straight back to her room.
She curled up on the bed. Her body was clearly recovering—she could move around much more easily now, and everything felt a lot more natural.
She touched her cheek; it was burning hot, something she'd never felt before. She thought, 'Jordan is different when he is with her. What did he mean by that? Does he like me?'
Jordan was right about one thing—it truly wasn't Stella's fault, but nobody had ever told her that.
When Stella first came back from the kidnapping, the police had checked and confirmed that nothing had happened to her, but her family still refused to believe it.
Max was always the one causing trouble, but Stella always ended up taking the fall for him. During that time, she'd lost hope in everything. But now, Jordan told her that it wasn't her fault. That made her heart flutter.
It was normal, at my age, to want to fall in love like everyone else, to experience all the good things life had to offer. But Stella wondered if she could live like that.
The doctors at the hospital had already chased after Anna five times, warning her that if she didn't pay up soon, Max and Andrew would be kicked out.
It wasn't like they hadn't given her a break—they'd allowed extra time, but Anna just couldn't scrape together the money.
Anna went back home, hoping to get her things. She couldn't bear to sell them, but she couldn't just ignore Max and Andrew either. But when she got there, she found the house had been slapped with a court seal.
She tried to go in and grab her stuff, but someone reported her, and people from the court came over and tossed her right out.
That was when she finally realized Fiona had mortgaged the house and stopped making payments ages ago; the court had already repossessed it.
Anna had never imagined the Hayes family would fall this far. Going from a pampered heiress to having absolutely nothing—she just couldn't accept it.
Just then, her phone rang—it was a call from one of her suitors.
Normally, Anna wouldn't even bother to answer, but this time, she answered it. The first thing she said was, "Can you take me away?"
