Weston stood there gazing at Stella who was sound asleep on the sofa. His disheveled black hair cast a shadow across his eyes, rendering his expression impossible to read.He stayed that way for so long that he’d forgotten what time it was. It was the cold breeze that finally prompted him to go back inside. He slid the door open, sauntered over to Stella, and picked her up and carried her into the bedroom.…The next morning, Stella woke up to find herself in a tight embrace. She felt something hard bolstering her neck. She opened her eyes and saw that it was a man’s arm.“Weston,” she muttered without even thinking, trying to push the man away.But Weston did not get up. With his eyes still closed, he hugged Stella a little tighter.“Let’s sleep a little longer,” he murmured in her ear. “Okay?”Stella struggled to get up so she could check the time.“I need to go to work,” she told him.Weston pinned her body down before she could get away and pulled her back into his arms, n

Yvonne thought nothing of Stella’s response, but she did stare at Stella and hesitated whether she should say what was on her mind.Stella noticed this. Now that she had got her gift, she was sure that Yvonne would have something to say to her. She didn’t want Yvonne to feel awkward, so she took the initiative to bring it up herself.“If you want to ask me anything,” she started, “then just ask it. I won’t hide anything from you.”Seeing that she was so straightforward about it, Yvonne saw no point in beating around the bush.“So are you and Weston now…” Yvonne studied Stella’s face with seriousness.Stella said nothing in reply, but merely responded with a smile. It was a joyless smile though and she looked more resigned than happy.Yvonne immediately understood what Stella was trying to say.“How dare he!” she snapped.Stella shook her head repeatedly and grabbed Yvonne’s hand. Her face was turning pale.“Please don’t worry about this, okay?” Stella begged Yvonne. “I don’t w

But Joyce was not afraid of Stella. She was just taken aback by her look. She’d never seen Stella acting so cold before…What was going on with her? What had happened in Yvonne’s office? Why had she changed so much after that?… Stella had enough time to calm herself down that afternoon. She was a dance teacher, after all. Teaching the children was still the most important thing in her life.When it was almost time to get off work, Stella checked the time on her phone. It was the first time that she resented leaving work. She couldn’t go home now, so she gave her brother a call to tell him that she would be on a business trip for a while.Yvonne happened to pass by when she was telling Roger she couldn’t go home. She stopped and stared at Stella in dismay.Stella hung up the phone and turned around to leave, only to bump into Yvonne who was looking at her with a strange expression. Yvonne looked down at her shoes when their eyes met and said nothing. Stella was about to walk a

Although Mr. Smith couldn’t make it back home in time to take Ruby to the audition, he’d made all the necessary preparations beforehand. All Ruby needed was an adult to accompany her there, since she was still a child.The driver was already waiting downstairs, so once Ruby and Stella got into the car, they headed straight to the movie set.Stella had never been to a place like this. From afar she could see countless different equipment all set up in a wide area. There was a stage in the center of it all where the lights were focused on. Someone was on that stage holding a walkie-talkie and giving out commands to the large crew.Ruby, on the other hand, seemed to be familiar with the place. It was obviously not her first time on a film set.“Miss Steele,” the girl said when they arrived, “I think you should contact the director’s assistant. Everytime I’m here, Daddy would take me straight to him.”Stella nodded and followed the procedure that the nanny instructed her earlier. She

Stella was reminded of Weston again. The thought made her palms a little sweaty. She needed to get some fresh air, but she couldn’t possibly leave Ruby here alone.About half an hour later, it was finally Ruby’s turn. The assistant hurried over to get Ruby and brought her to the stage. Stella stood under the stage, watching Ruby nervously stepping under the spotlight. There were quite a number of people around her. It must have really been a large set. No one was paying any attention to them since they arrived. This only changed when Ruby got up on stage.Stella had presumed that with Mr. Smith’s wealth, Ruby would be treated like a princess in this place. But apparently she was mistaken. Though he might be rich, Mr. Smith was nearly a nobody in the entertainment industry, since there were many more who were a thousand times richer and more powerful than him here. Perhaps only people with Weston Ford’s stature could enjoy special treatment wherever he went.Ruby was a young gi

Because it was extremely quiet on Weston’s end of the line, he could clearly hear the background noise on Stella’s end. Weston was sitting on the sofa. The black genuine leather felt cold against his skin. The rest of the room was just as cool and serene.“Where are you?” he asked Stella.Stella explained exactly what happened. There was only silence when she finished speaking, as Weston made no reply.“Can I… go home a little later today?” Stella hesitantly asked.Weston glanced at the time.“How late is a little later?”Stella pursed her lips and looked around the set. Things seemed to be in an uproar, with people shouting and hurrying around. Even as she stood there in a relatively quiet corner, she was still in someone’s way from time to time.“I don’t know how long this’ll take,” she replied. “Once I’m done, I’ll let the driver know.”Weston remained silent. Stella’s heart was pounding as she awaited his answer. She could never guess Weston’s mood or temper. She was al

Ruby said amidst her tears, “I can’t memorize them. I need my teacher to do the scene with me!” With that, she pointed in Stella’s direction. “Can she come up to help me with my lines?” Stella was stunned at being singled out and looked at Ruby in shock. Help her with her lines? She had never done something like this before. What’s more, she had only helped her check whether she memorized her lines correctly while they were offstage, like a student memorizing the textbook. She knew nothing else aside from that. The director looked at Stella and his eyes lit up at the sight of her. The entertainment circle had no lack of beauties, and Stella was definitely not considered one of the most stunning. As for the director, having seen hordes of beauties himself, it had been a while since he was impressed by anyone. When he saw Stella just now, it left a deep, lasting impression on him. He could tell that she barely had any makeup on, and she dressed simply. Her skin was flaw

“Me?” Stella did not even realize he was talking to her. After she snapped back to attention, she said in disbelief, “I’m just here to accompany Ruby for the audition, and don’t have any prior experience. I definitely don’t belong to associated professions either-” The director cut her off mid-sentence, “I know, I heard about your background from the assistant. You are a dance teacher, aren’t you?” Stella nodded as the director went on, “The barriers to entry in acting is considered low. Many outstanding actors began from nothing. I was the one who groomed last year’s best male actor from scratch. He started out with zero acting experience, too.” Bradley Lane was known to be an eccentric, albeit famous director. However, having been in the industry for long, he had long learned how to sweet-talk and be persuasive. He said as convincingly as he could, “As much as the entertainment circle isn’t as aggressive as it was before, many people find a lot more things from it than from e

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
