Chapter 1174

Author: Boat of Peaches
Stella dismissed all these troubling thoughts and exhaled sharply.

She looked at the man on the couch with the smell of alcohol, feeling a little helpless.

“Get up. We shall go back to the apartment first. I will cook you something.”

Miguel’s eyes shone the moment he heard that. “Really?”

Even through the fog of drunkenness, he still retained some of his consciousness. “You haven’t cooked for me for a long time…”

He sounded a bit aggrieved.

He liked her cooking.

Although she wasn’t nearly as good as a professional chef, her home-cooked concoctions had a unique taste, especially her noodles, and though he did not know what recipe she used, it was always different from the other cooks.

Stella knew he was craving her food and said to him, still holding hands with Elias and Emma, “We will wait for you downstairs. You come down quickly.”

She knew he needed time to sober up after all the drinking.

He closed his eyes to rest for a moment.

After that, he opened the window and let ou

    He paused for a while and put his arm down suddenly. Gazing at her, he said earnestly, “At least I’m someone important to you. That’s enough for me to outweigh all other suitors of yours.”He still sounded very confident in himself.All her suitors were basically unappealing to her.No matter in which aspect, none of them could compete with him.The only man he found to be a threat was Weston.He lit a cigarette. “Indeed, he’s the one who wields all the power in Ahn City…”As soon as he took a puff, he saw Stella frowning.He hastily put it off. “I am sorry. I was a little overwhelmed by drinking too much.”Without saying anything, she wound down the car window to let the air in.She did not like the smell of cigarettes and did not want Elias and Emma to be exposed.“You are still young. Now is the time for you to sharpen your skills. Smoke and drink less. These habits are unhealthy.”Times had changed. Drinking and smoking might have been required to get business deals in t

    Stella smiled. “Yeah.”The two ate the noodles quietly in a cozy atmosphere.Miguel had eaten all sorts of expensive delicacies over the years, yet his favorite was still the taste of home cooking.After finishing eating, she raised her head up, pulled a tissue paper, and said out of nowhere, “I met Weston today.”The man’s hand, which was holding the fork, froze, and he looked up at her almost immediately. “When did it happen? Why didn’t you tell me until now?”She wiped her mouth and tossed the tissue paper into the glass jar beside her. “It was just downstairs from where we were dining. Someone had booked the place, it was his birthday.”He snorted. “I have totally forgotten about that. He turns thirty today, right?”Then, he put down his fork and spat out two words. “Old man.”She found it hilarious to see him looking so childish.She covered her nose and giggled, though her reaction didn’t escape his eyes—“What are you laughing at? Was I wrong? Isn’t he an old man?”He

    Such a man could only truly love after a great loss, even at the cost of death, before he could realize what it meant to cherish someone.Regardless, belated love was lowlier than none.Stella was no longer the one who would give all her heart upon receiving just a little warmth.…It was very late at night.Weston stood on the balcony, holding a thick stack of papers in his hand.They were all about Stella’s life experiences in the past three years.He never thought that this woman would fake her death to escape from him.And he was actually unaware of it.He thought of the corpse she left behind three years ago. He did not even notice that it was not her at all until the car was burned to ashes.She had been living a prosperous life these past few years, with the Garcia family supporting her, so it was unsurprising that he hadn’t been able to find out about her.He was more focused on sorcery and faith, hoping that those strange powers would allow her to see him again.Bu

    The streetlights were dim, and pedestrians were scarce. The night sky was dotted with stars; the background was a boundless horizon.The tall man stood in the light, his shadow stretched out infinitely with the light from his back, exuding subtle loneliness.Stella walked to the balcony and looked down with her phone in her hand. “What business do you have that you come looking for me?”“Why don’t you ask me how I got your address?”She laughed. “Do I have to? Who in Ahn City would not know about your ability? It is just an address. Anyone who has it will send it to you.”Hearing her teasing tone, Weston raised his head and looked at the slender figure on the balcony and said with a hoarse voice, “You come down, or I come up?”She withdrew her eyes and leaned on the railing behind her, leaving him with only a back view.A moment later, she looked at her nails and said indifferently, “I’m not going down, and you don’t have to come up. It’s good for us to be separated by a distanc

    When she finished, she turned around, entered the building, and did not come out again.…When it was time to go to work, everything had already been recharged.It wasn’t time for her appointment with Bradley yet, so she leisurely made breakfast for Elias and Emma.When she heard the sound of a car engine downstairs, she knew it was Weston driving away.She took two glasses of milk and placed them in front of Elias and Emma, staring at them as they drank them.Emma’s small hands held the large glass of milk. She reluctantly finished it, and milk foam was all over her mouth.Seeing this, Elias said in disgust, “Dirty cat, messy cat.”He pulled out a tissue paper and wiped her mouth.When Stella walked out of the kitchen with a plate of poached eggs and saw the interaction between the twins, her heart felt warm and tender.So many things happened in the past few years, and she felt that her life was rather unfortunate, filled with many ups and downs.But sometimes, she felt th

    Weston frowned upon hearing that.Daisy tensed up, seeing his facial expression.Just as she was speculating which of her words made him uncomfortable, the man suddenly opened his thin lips lightly and said, “She’s married. You shouldn’t call her that.”She froze for a moment, and her eyes flickered, not expecting that he would care about this by this time…She nodded, barely tugging her lips, and said, “My mistake… I just didn’t expect that Mrs. Ford did not look for you in the past three years… After we left last night, didn’t you have a proper conversation with her?”He curled his fingers and held them against his eyebrows, slightly closing his eyes for a moment.She saw the dark circles under his eyes and was a little distressed.He must’ve only slept a little last night.He must be thinking about that woman again.What was so good about her that she could make him miss her so much…She was still laughing at Nicole last night. But the actual fact was that she was similar

    Even if Daisy hated her and was disgusted with her, she still had to take her side. This was so Weston would pay more attention to her.After thinking it through, Daisy said to Weston, “I won’t make such a mistake again. I’ll take care of whoever you care about…”Weston waved his hand and motioned for her to leave. Daisy responded and quickly reverted to being a professional secretary. She arranged his schedule for him and said, “There’s a dinner party at The Dog House tonight. It’s a meeting with the boss of the upcoming steel business in Ahn City. If we work with him, we can have large savings.”“Then arrange it.” Weston agreed to the schedule, so Daisy took the file and left.Weston had no reason to fire Daisy as long as she was efficient and kept her personal feelings to herself at work....Stella finished cleaning up by noon. The nanny was late. “Sorry, Miss Cicily. I’m a little late. Where are the two little ones?”Stella got to know her in Compassvale. She was a nice

    “Thanks.” Stella led her to sit down on the sofa and looked at Bradley. She joked with them, “Thanks. You kept your mouth shut and didn’t say a thing, knowing I was still alive. I’m glad Weston didn’t come to disturb my life.”“It was such a big deal.. Of course, I’d keep it a secret!”“I’m not someone with a big mouth,” Angelina said.After she said that, Stella shot her a look.Angelina felt a little weak and covered her mouth. “Well, about Yvonne… It was just a slip of the tongue…”The only people who knew she was still alive were Bradley, Yvonne, and Angelina. She only told them after her situation had stabilized.After all, they were the ones who really cared about her. She did not want to show up one day by surprise suddenly. They might think that she did not take them seriously as friends at all.Stella’s character had matured over the years. She could be indifferent to those she hated but cared about the people she loved more than ever.Bradley did not say anything. H

    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. Not many look for a partner purely because of material qualities. People with emotional needs will search
