StarNovelChapter 253:
This was a clear violation of her personal freedom!
“But... Miss Richard, Mr. Kingston said that you can’t go out.”
The servant awkwardly blocked Stella’s path, clearly intent on keeping her inside, with no intention of letting her
leave.
“| already made plans with my friend! She's waiting for me! | have to go today!” Stella fumed. Who did RK think
he was to keep her from going out? He had locked her in the house all summer, refusing to let her contact the
outside world! It was like she had vanished.
“Miss Richard, please go back.” The servant said firmly. “Sir cares about you. Before he left, he told us to watch
over you and not let you go out. If you have any requests, we can fulfill them, but... you can’t leave.”
“I want to go out!” Stella was fuming as she tried to force her way past the servant.
At this point, the commotion attracted the attention of all the servants downstairs. Soon, a group of them had

“Miss Richard, please go back. Mr. Kingston has instructed that you cannot go out.”
“That's right, Miss Richard, your ankle hasn't fully healed yet, and it’s still inconvenient for you to walk. Please
return to your room and rest,” one of the servants urged as they gently pushed Stella back inside the house.
There was no room for argument.
Stella was livid!
“No, I'm going out today! College starts in a few days, and I've already recovered! Besides, | promised my friend!
If you won't letout today, I'll just go out tomorrow!” Stella shouted in frustration.
She had thought living in the RK mansion wouldn’t be so bad at first, but every tshe wanted to leave, it
beca nightmare!

The mansion, while equipped with every luxury, was like a gilded cage that restricted her freedom.
At that moment, the old housekeeper stepped forward. “Miss Richard, how about this? I'll call Mr. Kingston. If he
allows it, we'll let you go out. But if he says no, please don’t make things difficult for us.”
Stella was speechless. “Let you go out”? It sounded as if she was a prisoner in her own home.
However, she knew that asking RK was better than being blocked from going out entirely.
Left with no choice, Stella sighed. “Fine.”
Deep down, she wasn’t hopeful. If RK had intended to let her go out, he would have given her that freedom long
ago. She doubted his answer would be any different now.
Still, she couldn’t shake the idea that this might be her only chance to escape, so she nodded reluctantly.
As the old housekeeper made the call, Stella thought, This is perfect. Maybe | can sneak out while they're
distracted!
She certainly didn’t want to be blocked by servants every tshe tried to leave.
After a few moments of silence, the phone rang on the other end. It wasn’t long before someone picked up.

The old housekeeper asked, “Sir, are you busy? Miss Richard would like to go out today. What do you think?”
Stella rolled her eyes. As if RK would say yes. She waited for the inevitable response.
A few moments later, the housekeeper approached her with the phone. “Miss Richard, Mr. Kingston would like to
speak with you.”
Stella groaned inwardly. Her plan to slip away had failed. Who wanted to talk to RK anyway?
Reluctantly, she took the phone and answered in a low voice.
From the other end, RK’s deep, steady voice cthrough. “Where are you going?”
His tone was calm as always, with no emotion. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
“The bookstore!” Stella replied quickly.
It was becoming clear to her that if she continued living in the RK mansion, it would always be difficult to go out.
Luckily, college was about to start soon. After that, she could stay on campus every day, free to do whatever she
wanted without needing RK’s permission.
Thinking of that brought her srelief. It's much better than being stuck here in this mansion, she thought.
