Guinevere took a step back subconsciously, made uncomfortable by the look in his eyes.

She looked away to avoid his eyes. “Father and Mother suddenly told me that they would come here today when they pass by—”

She explained with her tiny voice, but was interrupted by Weston before she could finish what she was about to say. “It’s late. I’ll send you home.”

She looked up at him in disbelief. “Are you still planning to chase me out at this hour?”

The man furrowed his eyebrows. In the light of the living room, his features became more and more distinct, but they grew colder at the same time.

He stared at her without saying a word.

She suddenly felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She closed the door, then hugged his waist and buried her face in his chest. “I have been very anxious all this time. I feel that you are getting further and further away from me. Are you really serious about it when you promised my parents that you would marry me just now?”

Weston’s arms remained at his s

    After Weston sent Guinevere back to her apartment, he looked at his watch and guessed that Stella should already be asleep, but he sent her a message anyway.All his previous numbers were blacklisted by her, so he got another new number.It wasn’t an issue for him, and she did not block his number again.Perhaps she knew that her action was of no use, so she simply gave up.Thinking of this, the man smiled.After some time, he still did not receive any reply.He didn’t expect that she would text back anyway, so he went to the bathroom for a quick shower. But when he came out, he saw a weak light blinking on top of his phone.The moment he checked his phone, his eyes darkened.It was Stella.He picked up the call but did not say anything, waiting for her to speak.After a while, he heard an unfamiliar voice of a man. “Who are you? Why are you texting Stella in the middle of the night?”…At aa drive-in cinema.Stella didn’t expect that she would be dating another man in jus

    Before Stella could respond, the man had already found the text message and called the number directly.When she heard a beep on the other end, it was too late for her to stop it even if she wanted to.She subconsciously reached out to grab it, but the man pressed her forehead and pushed her away gently. He placed his index finger to his mouth and made a 'shush' gesture, winking at her.Stella’s face sank as she heard him saying, “Who are you? Why are you texting Stella in the middle of the night?”He sounded very provocative.Stella raised her eyebrows immediately and opened her mouth.It was not that she was worried that Weston might misunderstand something, but that this person might anger him.The reason that she started blind dating was to make him give up as he would encounter this scene sooner or later. She did not expect that this man was so straightforward, so she was worried that he might enrage Weston.After all, Weston was crazy and would do anything.When she was

    As soon as she pressed the elevator button, a tall figure suddenly appeared beside her.She jerked her head up, and her eyes met with a pair of black sunken eyes.Weston grabbed her wrist and dragged her to a corner without saying anything. Hands on her shoulders, he directly pushed her into the escape route.Nobody would come here, so it was scarily quiet. Besides, the surrounding was so dark that they could barely see anything.Stella was startled and immediately pushed him away with all her might.“What are you doing?”Her voice was a bit piercing to the ears in the empty space.The man covered her mouth directly with one hand and used the other to pull off her thin sweater before he kissed her neck.It was already autumn, so the night was a bit chilly.Because she went to a drive-in cinema, she wore a white cardigan. It could also be described as a knitted sweater; it was soft and not very thick. It was very stretchy, so it could be easily pulled off the shoulder.Even in

    It was then that Stella began to feel relieved. Luckily, the man had already left. If Weston bumped into him, he might cause more trouble.When the man saw her not making a sound, his eyes darkened, and he jumped to conclusions. “So, is it the man called Justin?”Taking advantage of the moment, she pushed his hand away impatiently. “It’s not him. But it has nothing to do with you anyway.”“Must you still act like this when things have come to this point?” He suddenly softened and spoke to her calmly. “Stella, you are not a stupid person.”Since she was ready to step over his line, she should not retreat when she was stepping on it.This would make him feel tantalized.Sensing her thoughts of retreating again, he snorted. He lifted her chin up with his slender finger, forcing her to look directly into his eyes. “At a time like this, do you think you can still run away on your own?”His eyes suddenly turned cold, and his tone was exuding a hint of menace. “Don’t let me see you get

    “Just take the pain I give you, and you shall suffer no unnecessary pain.”Weston suddenly leaned down and looked at her almost tenderly. He kissed the corner of her lips and then slowly moved toward the wound below her lips and licked it.Stella’s body tensed up, and her face was full of unconcealed hatred.He acted as if he didn’t see it and stroked her cheek with the back of his palm. He stopped beside her ear and started rubbing her ears with his fingertips gently. “There is nothing wrong with a little pain. At least it means that I’m giving you a deep feeling. Remember this pain and never forget it.”He seemed to know that his image was irreversible in Stella’s heart. So each and every word he said was aimed right on her sore point.Her eyes had long been red, her despair beyond words. With an indifferent tone, she said, “The only thing that I regret the most is that I once loved you. Now it seems that all that so-called tolerance and mercy in the past is just a weapon you

    In the cafe.Stella looked around the familiar decor but remained in silence.The waiter served them coffee. Both of them had ordered cappuccino.She actually preferred espresso. She liked the kind of pure bitterness.Yvonne had a different preference—she had a sweet tooth.It was only after Yvonne made her order that Stella ordered the same one.This was the very cafe she met with Guinevere the last time. She didn’t expect that she would come here again and sit on the very same table. The only difference was that now, she was with Yvonne.It felt totally different.Yvonne didn’t know where to start.She called out to Stella out of impulse. But after she calmed down, she regretted it.But seeing Stella even more anxious than her, she slowly calmed down.“Do you want to tell me anything about that day?”She didn’t want to be judgemental, so she didn’t sound too definitive. She still hoped that it was a misunderstanding.Stella’s face turned sour. “I don’t know what I should

    Hearing a third wheel say that she did not do it on purpose in a pitiful manner, Yvonne would only find it disgusting.But when she was facing Ella, she would always have an inexplicable tolerance for her.Perhaps it was because she had projected her regret toward Stella on her that she truly considered her as a friend and did not want her to repeat her mistakes.“I know that Weston is good in many ways. Even after he got together with Guinevere, there are still many actresses trying to get near him and many ladies in high society who have their eyes set on him. It wasn’t easy even for Guinevere to win him over back when she was in high school. She started loving him at that time, but he didn’t have any feelings for her and always treated her coldly. I didn’t even realize when it was—maybe it was after they graduated from the university—that their relationship improved.”It was only after a while that Yvonne realized that she had gone too far. She paused briefly and brought the con

    Time passed without them realizing it, and the atmosphere in the cafe was getting heavier.Yvonne originally thought that she would feel relieved after her misunderstanding was resolved. But after she learned about what Stella was facing, she couldn’t help worrying about her. “Are you sure you don’t need my help?”Stella shook her head. “I don’t want to drag you into this.”She knew how high Weston’s status was. Although she did not know much about social class, she knew he was not someone to mess with judging from the attitude of the other people.Yvonne was also the wife of a rich man. But if she interfered rashly, it would have a great impact on her as well as Lucas.The relationship between the rich families was very complicated. It was not simply about right and wrong. And Stella was fully aware of this.But the more she showed understanding, the more Yvonne felt aggrieved for her.“I didn’t expect Weston to be so similar with all those filthy men in private. He looks very

    Stella had rarely ever woken up before him.He had always been terrifyingly strong, but their lovemaking last night must have consumed a lot of his energy, leaving him so tired that he was still sound asleep.She stared at him and suddenly felt like doing something naughty. She pinched his nose and held her fingers there, trying to suffocate him. Unsurprisingly, he soon knitted his handsome brows and quickly woke up.He was surprised to see her mesmerizing eyes as soon as he woke up, which made him pause. He then took her hand into his and kissed it again and again.“Are you okay?” he asked with concern, remembering how wildly he ravaged her last night.She had only been willing to be intimate with him because she was under the influence of a drug, yet he had taken advantage of her and had his way with her over and over again last night.Stella did not speak. Seeing her like that made his expressions turn a little colder. He fell silent for a long time before he got up and sl

    The moment Stella saw him, she flew into his arms and clambered onto his body. She kissed him again and again, trying to search for his breath so she could explore his body even deeper. All she wanted was to let him extinguish the fire burning inside her.Half an hour had passed, and the effect of the drug on her body was its strongest now.Weston swallowed his saliva. Without any hesitation, he pinned her against the bathroom mirror and kissed her vehemently on her face, her shoulders, then her neck.Stella could not stop herself from letting out loud moans. The sounds she produced only drove Weston wilder. Even the corners of his eyes began to turn red now.Luckily, there was still a thread of reason in his mind. He pushed her away and, while panting heavily, asked her, “Who am I, Stella?”But Stella’s mind was occupied with her primal urges. She ignored his question and grabbed his shirt collar, saying, “Let’s do it…” The sight of her filled Weston with a desire to just give

    Weston paused, then simply replied, “Okay.”When he saw her changing into a pair of high heels, he followed her around and asked, “Where are you going?”“Oh, to a private concert.”Then she added, “If you’re going to spend the night here tonight, then please take care of Elias and Emma. But if you have to leave, I’ll ask Roger to come over instead.”“Don’t worry,” he said. “Just go out and enjoy yourself. I’ll be at home and take good care of the kids.”Stella paused suddenly, feeling inexplicably weird about what Weston had just said. It sounded like she was forcing him to stay at home and take care of the kids while she went out to have fun without a care in the world. She turned around to look at Weston, feeling like he was acting like a poor neglected housewife.She shook her head and tried to shake this terrifying thought out of her mind.When they arrived at the concert, Hayden offered his arm to her like a gentleman. They then walked into the private concert together, w

    Stella’s words rendered Weston speechless. She was right. He had been the one to agree to let Stella date other people, so he must seem like a fool saying all those things to her.He withdrew his hands and forced himself to calm down a little. “I have no intention to stand in your way,” he told Stella. “I was only worried about Elias and Emma. Since they’re also here, I think you need to take their feelings into consideration.”The children could sense the strained atmosphere between the adults, so they just waited patiently on the couch with Roger, occasionally poking their heads out to look at their parents.Seeing his kids like that, Weston slowly added, “I’m only here to see the kids, so both of you can go ahead with your date.”Stella said nothing and just took Hayden’s hand and left.When they got downstairs, Hayden glanced at her and asked, “Are you sure you want to just leave him like that?”“I don’t know,” Stella massaged the point between her brows. “I’m not sure wh

    Hayden Quirk arrived half an hour earlier than Stella did on their first date.“You’re much earlier than I expected,” he joked as Stella walked in.Stella was actually on time, but she still felt a little guilty when she saw him already waiting for her when she arrived.“The traffic is terrible today,” she said.“Don’t worry about it,” Hayden said, handing her the menu. “Mr. Ford expected me to wait for you for at least an hour.”“I seriously don’t know what you guys are up to,” she grumbled, exasperated, “but I hope it will at least be over soon. Just don’t drag it out and cause me any trouble.”She ordered a few dishes, then handed the menu back to him. Hayden took it from her, ordered a few more signature dishes that the restaurant was popular for, then looked at Stella with a faint smile.“Did you think this is all just a joke?” he asked.“What else could it be?”“I am serious about this,” he told her, his voice suddenly turning grave. “Since even Mr. Ford agreed that we s

    Weston raised his eyebrows at Ben’s words. “But he’s divorced. He has an ex-wife.”“What’s wrong with having an ex-wife?”Ben found Weston’s comment strange. “This man has good qualities. Upon investigation, he has a very good personality too. He was an active member during college. He also has an amazingly beautiful resume. It’s normal that a man like him has been married before… Besides, hasn’t Ms. Sealey been married before herself? She even has two children.”Weston’s expression turned cold at once. “Are you discriminating against her?”“I’m not.”Weston said, “Or do you think she can only find a divorced man for her second marriage?”Ben panicked. “I wouldn’t dare!”With Weston’s ridiculous amount of nitpicking, they could find no one that would match Stella.Hayden sat beside and quietly reviewed Weston’s latest psychological health report. As he turned the page, he suddenly said, “I’m actually a little interested in Ms. Sealey.”Hayden laughed a little and turned to Wes

    Stella opened her eyes and shot Weston a cold look. Then, she turned her head the other way.Weston did not touch her again. He knew she was probably angry with him, so he stayed silent.A few moments later, he reminded her, “Don’t be angry. That man is unreliable.”Stella propped her chin in her palm. “And what does that have to do with you?”Weston pursed his lips, setting his jaw in a tight line. He said, “I’ve promised to stop pestering you. It’ll be a promise. I’m fine with seeing you with another man, but at least find someone who makes me feel at ease.”“Why do I need your approval when I’m just looking for a date?” Stella found his words funny. “You’re just my ex-husband. Don’t you think you care too much?”Weston rubbed his brow, and his voice suddenly went cold. “If you don’t want me to keep pestering you like I just did, maybe you should listen to me.”Stella questioned, “Are you threatening me?”“No. I’m suggesting.”Stella was lost for words. Then, she suddenly

    Stella froze for a moment when she heard the voice. When she turned around, she saw that Weston had appeared behind her at some point.Weston stared at the man behind Stella with a cold gaze and an icy aura around him. Weston had always emitted a strong aura around him. Anyone who saw him would immediately be terrified because of his intimidating aura.The man froze for a moment at Weston’s sudden appearance. He took a step back and quickly steadied himself before greeting Weston, “Mr. Ford.”He still had the same calm and gentle look. “I’m sending Miss Cicily back.”“I know. Don’t ever show up in front of her again,” Weston told him. “You don’t have to send her back. Stay away from her.”It would be a little inappropriate for the man to act a fool at Weston’s straightforwardness, so he tugged at his collar and asked Weston with a polite smile, “Mr. Ford, you should give me a reason, shouldn’t you? I’m having a good time with Miss Cicily.”“You’re the one who thinks she’s having

    Stella smiled. It seemed like he had come prepared.Stella enjoyed chatting with the man. He was sincere and introduced himself properly as soon as they started chatting.The man was also a pianist and came from a scholarly family. Although not super wealthy, he was doing considerably well in the middle class. Stella would not need to worry about the quality of life with him, but that was about it. She certainly could not live a luxurious life.Stella had a good impression of him. She also talked to him a little more about piano music.Stella twirled her hair and smiled. She told him with a nice voice, “I’m sure Roger has already told you about my situation.”“I know.”The man looked at her gently and set the coffee in front of her. He said to her, “I’m very interested in you. I think we’re very suitable for each other. Our living standards nowadays have improved quite a bit.
