Five years later, the country’s largest organization, Stellar Foundation, would hold its opening ceremony in three days. The laboratory they funded had successfully conquered stomach cancer, and the event had drawn attention from various sectors even before it had started.
At Rosewood Estates, a white Bentley pulled up in front of the largest villa.
As the car door opened, a pair of legs in black high heels, as if straight out of a picture, came into view. Shortly after, a woman in a red dress stepped out.
She wore sunglasses, covering two–thirds of her delicate, oval face. Though her face wasn’t fully visible, her fiery figure and unique demeanor made it clear that she was a beauty.
“Stella, you’re finally back!” a woman in pajamas called out as she hurriedly rushed out of the villa.
As she was about to throw herself into the woman’s arms, a bodyguard rushed over and stood in front of her.
Seeing the bodyguard’s intimidating stare, the woman in pajamas cautiously took a step back. “It’s just that I’ve missed you after two years, Stella! Come on! Look at what I’ve prepared for you and see if you like it.”
As she took off her sunglasses, Estelle’s familiar face appeared before everyone.
Her eyes swept over the two large maple trees at the entrance, and a satisfied smile tugged at her lips. She really did like the maple trees.
Seeing her satisfaction, Madison Lancaster raised an eyebrow smugly.
“I hired the best designer in the country, and it took a year and a half to complete this villa. Stella, you absolutely have to see it,” she said, pulling Estelle inside.
Estelle let her lead the way, following obediently.
When Seth sent her abroad five years ago, she met Madison, who was interning at the time. By coincidence, Madison was also Seth’s cousin, so he entrusted Estelle to her without a second thought.
This time, Madison returned as the representative of the lab and the future head of Stellar Foundation in the country.

The villa had a Florencia style, with delicate details everywhere. It was clear that this place wasn’t cheap.
Suddenly, Madison rested a hand on Estelle’s shoulder.
“I know you might think I’m wasting money, but Stella, you’re the founder of Stellar
Foundation, the most renowned jewelry designer and the owner of the largest luxury brand in the country, Asteria. Don’t you think you deserve to live in a place that matches your status?”
Estelle chuckled at her reasoning but couldn’t help teasing her back, saying, “I’m not going to reimburse you.”
Upon hearing that, Madison immediately panicked. “No, no, this was designed especially for you! Besides, I’m out of money. What you gave me already went over budget, so I had to borrow more from Seth.”
“You…”
For a moment, Estelle was left speechless. She hadn’t expected that Seth would also be involved.
Madison pushed her inside.
“Three days from now, you’ll be speaking as the representative of Stellar Foundation. Important people will be there, and your image is crucial if you want to leave a good impression. Try on this dress.”
As she spoke, Madison pinched Estelle’s waist.
Estelle’s stomach had been partially removed, and with her spleen also in poor condition, her absorption wasn’t very good. Seth had put a lot of effort into helping her gain some weight. Seeing her in the dazzling red gown, Madison couldn’t resist taking several photos.
“Stella, you look absolutely stunning! I’m in love with you,” Madison exclaimed.
Without hesitation, she blew a kiss.
Estelle shook her head, feeling exhausted from entertaining Madison any longer.
She really did need to prepare properly.
As she set foot on this land once again after five years, she knew she had to be ready.
