Chapter 1564 After placing Stella in the high chair, Eric crouched down in front of her and gently touched her hair, asking affectionately, “What do you want to eat?” Stella still had a cold expression on her face. “I don’t want to eat anything.” Eric paused for a moment, then ran his hand from the back of her head to her lips. “You promised to treat me like before, to be gentle with me.” You mean, I still have to be tender and loving towards you, always wearing a smile? Well, in the past, I did say “I love you” and have sex with you every night. And now you’re telling me I have to do all this just to escape from you? When Stella thought of it, a hint of disgust appeared in her eyes. But she still forced a smile on her face, saying, “I want Cheese bread, beef, orange juice…” Finally, Eric showed a satisfied expression and stroked Stella’s hair again, as if she were a pet. “That’s my good girl,” He murmured. She thought he would go to the kitchen alone, but to her surprise, he carried her there too. After making her sit on the clean and tidy countertop, Eric closed the kitchen door and sealed them in a confined space. Only then did he roll up his sleeves and start preparing the food. Perhaps he was afraid that she would grab a knife or something to attack him, so Eric only used very short and small utensils. Stella wasn’t foolish enough to use those small knives to fight against a tall, strong man like Eric. She would have no chance of winning even if she fought with her life. Eric seemed to be in a good mood, cooking the steak and immediately cutting off a small piece to place it near Stella’s lips. “Try it and see if it tastes good.” In the years when Stella deceived him, they had interacted in
a similar way, but back then Stella didn’t have hatred in her eyes. Now, she reluctantly opened her lips, chewed slowly, and remained silent. She would eat whatever was given to her anyway.
Eric wasn’t annoyed either. He treated her like a playful pup, ruffled her hair, and then turned to squeeze some orange juice. These foods aren’t available on the island before. Eric must have bought them this morning when he went out. So, after we finish eating the food, he would have to go out again after a certain period of time. During this time, I can not only retrieve the gun but also escape. At the thought, Stella tur ner head and looked out the window. There was a boat on the distant beach, but she knew Eric would certainly take that boat when he left the island. It was of no use to her. If she wanted to leave, she had to take the gun first and then use it to threaten Eric to let her go. Of course, she could also wait for a month to pass before leaving, but she didn’t trust Eric. Thinking this, Stella slowly relaxed. She had to make Eric lower his guard before she could have a chance to escape. Next, whatever Eric fed her, Stella ate with her head down, filling her stomach to gather strength for her escape. The two of them didn’t argue or have any conflicts. However, after they finished eating, the anti-tracking device hidden in a concealed place started to beep. Eric’s expression darkened as he stared in the direction of the anti-tracking device. After a while, he took out his phone
and handed it to Stella. “Tell them not to come looking for your anymore.” Stella knew who “they” referred to. Taya, Harper, and Alpha were all searching for her everywhere. However, Eric had installed an anti- tracking device, blocking the signal, so it was difficult to pinpoint her exact location.

But now that the anti-tracking device had beeped, it meant that they were trying to cra ck it. It wouldn’t be long
before they found Stella. Stella took the phone and glanced at Eric. “With Alpha’ skills, they will find this place soon. Why do you have to offend him?” A cold smile appeared on Eric’s lips. “That’s why you have to make a call and tell him to come for you in a month.” Stella frowned. “Why do you have to spend a month with me?” Eric lowered his eyelashes, concealing his tiredness. “I want to spend more time with you. Is that not possible?” After saying that, he picked up Stella, who was sitting next to him, and placed her on his lap. Then he tilted his chin up and kissed Stella’s lips. “If I told you that I really miss you, would you believe me?” He missed her so much, to the point of agony, to the point where he didn’t know what to do to bring her back to his side. So, Eric was dying to stay with Stella for a month. Stella saw the intense love in his eyes but turned her head slightly, avoiding his gaze. “I don’t love you.” Eric’s body stiffened, and a wave of pain spread from his heart to his limbs, even his fingertips hurt. But he didn’t say much, just nodded. “I know.” He let go of Stella, picked up the phone again, and placed it in her hand. “This time, I won’t deceive you anymore. Give me a month.” After a month, he would let her go and stay on this small island, growing old alone, spending the rest of his life without disturbing her again.
