Stella was taken aback a little, not knowing what to say for a moment.

After a while, the man picked her up again and headed outside.

[What else do you want to do? Want to go out for a stroll in the park?]

She shook her head. “No. I want to listen to a podcast and go to bed later.”

He knew she was unwilling to be with him.

So he nodded. [Okay. I will stay here. Call me if you need me.]

“Aren’t you studying at university now? Don’t you have anything else to do?” She frowned.

[Nothing is more important than you.]

She was speechless.

Joan returned only after sunset.

She was relieved to hear that Stella had had her meal. “It’s a relief that I did not starve you, Mrs. Ford.”

Stella wanted to correct the way she addressed her, but the man stood up and said, [Did you get all the ingredients?]

“Yes.”

Joan said, “They are all Mrs. Ford’s favorite. I traveled miles to the suburb to get this fresh sea bass.”

The man nodded and took the live fish to the kitchen to clean them.

    Weston saw the change but did not say anything about it.Stella felt her way to the bed to take the outfit Joan had prepared for her in advance. Just as she wanted to get dressed, she heard a knock at the door. “Do you need my help?”“I am not so blind that I need help to get dressed.”She scolded him. “You’d better not come in.”The man knew she meant it and closed the door quietly.When they arrived at the hospital, he told her to sit down first and went to the registration counter.Stella stayed in the long corridor, feeling bored, then she suddenly heard a voice in her ear that she had not heard in a long time—“Aren’t you Stella? Why are you sitting here alone?”The old memory surfaced instantly in her mind, and her body froze.The bleached hair man in front teased her. “I heard you split up with Weston for good some time ago. He is the richest man in Ahn City. What do you have in your mind in doing so?”They were high school classmates and had not seen each other for ma

    The man lying on the floor was still immersed in shock. The moment he looked up, he saw the man surrounded with a killing intent— he was Weston.Weston was no stranger to him. He was beaten up by him back then when he was a student.Besides, Weston was very famous. And after the incident, he knew him even better, but he did not expect him to appear here.He looked at Weston, and then at Stella, and widened his eyes. “Aren’t you…”Before he could say it, Weston landed another punch on his face.“Ow…”Lying on the floor of the hospital, the man spat out another mouthful of blood. He could not get up no matter how he tried.The doctors, nurses, and patients nearby all stopped in their tracks and looked over in some surprise.Then, someone reacted and said to call the police.Weston then withdrew his hand, glanced at him coldly, then walked to Stella and picked her up. “Are you okay?”Stella heard his low voice and shook her head. “I am fine.”She inhaled deeply and looked blank

    Stella whispered in his ear. “Thank you.”At that moment, she felt like she was back in the old days, when some punks blocked her in an alley, and Weston descended from the sky and saved her like a god. It carved a profound mark on her heart.Weston seemed to read her mind at once and asked her, “Are you thinking of that man?”Stella smiled at him. “It's you that's on my mind right now.”The man's movements suddenly lurched, and his pace slowed considerably.He knew it was stupid, but he suddenly minded his identity as Joan's son.He was jealous of himself.…Stella had her eyes checked according to the procedure.The doctor said, “It’s nothing serious, but it depends on her immunity when she can regain her sight and how well she recovers.”It’s the same as not saying anything. It meant everything depended on her luck.Weston could not help but ask, “Will her eyes be okay?”The doctor looked at the tall and handsome man in front of him and immediately recognized him. He was

    Stella was shocked. “Didn’t you tell me in the car that you are not hurt.”“That was that. I didn’t want to say it with the chauffeur around.” “Why do you even care for your image? Just say it if you are hurt. There is nothing proud about hiding.”Stella knitted her brows and sat in front of him. “Where are you hurt?”He pulled her hand and put it on his chest. “Here.”She withdrew her hand immediately. “If I didn’t mishear it, you are the one who beat him. How could you be so badly injured?”“He is also a grown man. It’s impossible that I remain unscathed.”Then, he put her finger on the corner of his mouth. The moment she touched it, he hissed and drew a breath of cold air.She was speechless and said helplessly, “Wait for Joan to come back and treat you.”The man grabbed her hand immediately and rubbed it in his palm. “No, I don’t want another woman to touch me.”She was dumbfounded and said, “But she is your mother.”“So what? I am a grown man and don’t want my mother t

    Unable to resist, Weston reached out to touch her hair. However, Stella instantly smacked his hand away with a deep frown. “Don’t touch me!”“Why are you turning your back on me?” Weston asked, resisting the urge to embrace her. “Do you still have him in your heart?”“Don’t ask such a frivolous question.”“Have you ever thought about starting a new relationship?”“Yes, I have,” Stella replied indifferently. “But as you know, I have two children. Although they are abroad now, they’ve been with me all the while, never apart until now. I desire to stay with my children more than I desire to find a man.”“They’re all grown up and can be away from you. When they start school, you’ll have your own time. There are still long days ahead. Don’t you want to find a new man?”He asked a rather pragmatic question, to which Stella gave some serious thought. “You’re right, but I shouldn’t be looking for someone as young as you.”Weston chuckled. “How do you know I’m young?”“You’ve just begun

    “Seriously...”Stella pondered about it and thought something was wrong. “I heard you’re studying engineering?”Joan had taken care of her for several years now, and during that time, she did hear a little about him.Stella wondered if she remembered wrongly. She remembered that Joan’s son was studying civil engineering, not finance.Weston stopped talking and looked down. He patted her head. “Are you tired?”Stella nodded in reply. The two subsequently listened to the song in silence. After that, Weston tried to carry her to her room, but Stella pushed him away. “I’ll walk on my own.”With that, she propped herself up and went to find her shoes.Stella disliked wearing shoes while on the swing. She loved swinging her little bare feet around.She always liked doing this. In the past, Weston reprimanded her many times for going around barefoot, insisting that she wear shoes so she wouldn't catch a cold.Seeing that Stella had picked up the bad habit again, Weston rubbed his tem

    Weston looked down and observed the metal hooks stuck to the knitted shirt for a few moments. Then, he reached for her bra and unhooked it in a flash.There was a snap. Stella felt a relief off her chest and froze for a moment. “Rascal!” she blurted.Weston paused, surprised by her overreaction. In fact, he was more familiar than her when it came to this, especially since they had been together before. Stella hurriedly turned her back. Weston turned around and stopped staring at her. He waited until Stella was done and apologized for his action earlier. “Sorry. Your clothes and the clasp were stuck. I had no choice.”Stella could not help but glare at him. “You obviously did that on purpose. Besides, how are you so good at this?”Stella had only been with Weston—the only man in her life. On their first night together, Weston clearly couldn’t unhook her bra. Instead, he ripped the entire piece and even tore several new ones she had. Weston only got better at it later. Judging by

    A dead silence loomed in the air despite a lingering amorous aura.Time seemed to have stopped at Stella and Weston’s confrontation.Stella was on her knees at his side. Although unable to see, her gaze was sharp. She clutched his collar and touched his Adam’s apple with her fingertips. Then, she pressed down hard.When she heard Weston’s breathless voice, she let go of her grip slightly.“Don’t deny it. I know it’s you,” Stella said in a cold voice.Weston held her hand and looked at her steadily. Then, he let out a low laugh and asked, “When did you notice?”“I always felt like something was wrong. Besides, you didn’t disguise yourself well. I trusted you. That’s why I waited until now before exposing you.”“Sorry,” Weston confessed. “I didn’t mean to hide from you.”“Your apology sounds so insincere.” Stella cut him off and suddenly tightened her grip. Then, she heard Weston’s choking voice. “Ugh...”Completely under the grasp of her control, he was not resisting and rema

    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.
