captivating curves which indeed made it
difficult for him to recognize her
immediately he secretly thought that
this was not his fault estella's
appearance today starkly contrasted with
her previously alluring image the
features that had drawn his attention
before were now obscured how could he
possibly notice her chapter 164 the
Kelvin family's Vault upon hearing Sue
jyn's explanation Stella smiled
alluringly she slowly unzipped her
jacket revealing a glimpse of pristine
white teasingly remarking now can you
recognize me Sue jeene was taken aback
by her sudden action quickly averting
his gaze to the ceiling his tone laced
with embarrassment Miss Stella please
don't do that I was merely joking with
you Stella's expression grew complex as
she fixed her gaze upon Sue Jin's face a
flicker of nostalgia passing through her
eyes recalling their meeting from the
previous month Stella had attempted to
recruit him only to be met with his firm
rejection at that time she had perceived
him as an inexperienced youth unable to
contend with a formidable Kelvin family
yet now the once Mighty Kelvin family
had become a relic of the past while the
youngest major of the Federation before
her had risen to become a dominant Force
the swiftness of these changes left her
feeling as though she were in a dream
Miss Stella what are you thinking so
deeply about suene teased un able to
resist are you pondering how to have me
join the Stark family and bear children
with you he continued jesting Stella
snapped back to reality offering a rise
smile given my current circumstances how
could I dare to entertain such thoughts
your status now is beyond what we and
the Stark family can aspire to her tone
carried a hint of self-deprecation and
an acceptance of the harsh reality
compared to a month ago Sue Jin's
position had transformed dramatically
even if he were to propose joining the
Stark family now it was uncertain
whether they would accept him there was
even a possibility that the Stark family
might ultimately be absorbed by suene
such a risk was akin to inviting a wolf
into the fold Stella had long since
abandoned that notion D yes Eugene
perceiving her thoughts merely smiled
softly and said nothing further as
Eugene Stella said Gravely I hope I can
still address you as I did before taking
a deep breath she continued the
friendship between the Stark family and
you is unchanging should you ever find
yourself in Dire Straits the Stark
family will unhesitatingly assist you in
overcoming your challenges this is not
just my desire but the consensus of the
entire family Stella had come as a
representative of her family precisely
because of the profound Bond she shared
with suene the Stark family sought to
forge a closer alliance with him during
this opportunity upon hearing this a
deep smile graced Sue jyn's face I shall
undoubtedly cherish the Friendship of
the Stark family he was neither a Madman
nor a warmonger he understood well that
having more friends was advantageous
while fewer enemies were preferable
since the Stark family had extended an
olive branch he was more than willing to
accept it now he was no longer the
inexperienced Youth of the past he stood
on equal footing with the Stark family
and the alliance they established bore
no distinction of strength or weakness
after exchanging a few more pleasantries
Stella Rose to Bid Farewell she was also
eager to return family to gather the
resources listed for the exchange of the
Kelvin family Legacy after all suene had
made it clear that it would be first
come first served once the delegation
disembarked from the Airship they
swiftly dismantled the Coalition that
had surrounded The Vessel concluding the
entire process in a manner reminiscent
of a farce in a mere span of 2 hours the
water surrounding the Black Pearl
Islands returned to a Serene calm as if
