“Your grandfather is still downstairs. Tell me honestly: How is your relationship with Xavier?”

Men were always careless about this kind of thing.

But Mrs. Taylor had been down this road before. She could see that although the two respected each other and were not that close.

Zeta was stunned, not expecting her grandmother to ask about this.

Mrs. Taylor took her hand and brought her to the dressing table. Then, she opened a wooden box and took out a bracelet. “This bracelet was given to me by my grandmother. It was originally intended for your mother…”

Thinking about it, she was a bit reluctant.

When she was young, there was a bit of conflict between her and Zeta’s mother, her daughter-in-law.

After a long time, they got over it.

And she loved Zeta, her granddaughter, very much.

After thinking about it, she still gave her this bracelet.

“I don’t know how many more years I have left. There are many things we cannot bring with us after death. Now, the only thing that I am conce

    Zeta was amused. “Fiancée?”Hearing the doubt in her words, Xavier inexplicably got a little angry. “Didn’t you mean to let me in when you left the door open?“Zeta, you used to be open with me. It’s just a web search. What’s there that I can’t see?”“You…”She was infuriated by his rogue logic and glared at him fiercely. “In short, you can’t look at my stuff in the future!”“Okay.” He did not expect such a reaction from her when he took the initiative to care about her matters for the first time.He laughed sarcastically. “I will not care a thing about you in the future.”“You never cared about me before.”She was already a bit uncomfortable. Hearing him speak to her like this, she felt more and more aggrieved. “Anyway, our engagement is just for show. You have so many girlfriends outside. Why don’t you go and care for them? Why are you minding my business?”As soon as she said that, his heart sank.Not knowing where his anger came from, he suddenly grabbed her wrists and pu

    “Explain what?”“Your sexual aversion disorder. Why do you need treatment? And what do you want to do once you’re treated?”“Who are you to ask me these questions! You have so many girlfriends out there, and I’ve never asked you!”“Is that so?” Xavier’s face suddenly turned cold. “So there really is such a man that you sexually repulse. Are you planning to do something with him after you are cured?”Zeta clenched her fists. “So what if it's true? What does it matter to you! We won’t get married anyway. Why are you allowed to fool around outside but I'm not allowed to have contact with others?”The moment she said that, her eyes suddenly widened.“Mmph...”Before she could react, he seemed to be stimulated by something she said and immediately cupped her face and kissed her.Before he could think clearly, his body moved before his mind did.He kissed her fiercely.She could not react at first. Seeing the man closing his eyes and kissing her passionately, she used all her stren

    Zeta did not bother to reply to him and turned away from him. “You have your own room. I’m going to rest now, so please leave.”“I am looking at my fiancée’s room. Why should I leave?”Xavier started to mess around.She did not expect him to have such a side and clenched her fists. “What do you want?”He pressed closer, showing no intention of leaving. “Tell me who exactly you want to buy this medicine for.”“What does it have to do with you!” Zeta raised her volume.Looking into her eyes, he suddenly saw something fishy.He narrowed his eyes. “You are not using it yourself, are you?”He was so overwhelmed by his emotions just now that he lost his cool. Seeing her reaction, he calmed down a little.Someone like Zeta would not use this kind of medicine.She was a doctor. It might be her patient who needed it.He suddenly thought of someone and smirked. Tentatively, he asked, “Is it for Ella?”Her brows twitched as she retorted intuitively, “It's not for her!”He stared at h

    When the door was opened, Joan came to greet them. “Mr. Ford, Ms. Steele, do you need something to eat?”Weston glanced at the woman in his arms. Seeing that she had woken up, he asked, “Do you want to eat something?”Stella shook her head. “I am not hungry.”The man frowned and said to Joan, “Make something she likes.”Joan nodded. “Alright, Mr. Ford.”“I told you—I don’t want to eat!” She was completely sober and pushed against his chest, trying to land.He, however, held her tight. “Why are you throwing a tantrum with me again?”“I am not.” She felt a little tired and looked at the sofa. “Put me down. I want to take a shower first. I am quite tired.” “Let’s go together.” He did not do as she wished.He hefted her upward and carried her directly in the direction of the bathroom.She let him carry her and was put in the bathtub in the end.She almost drowned in the tub the last time. The image was still fresh in the man’s mind.This time, he did not leave her alone in the

    Stella could not avoid it. Drenched in water, she shivered with her arms crossed.Weston stared at her coldly, as if he did not see it.After a while, he directly squeezed into the bathtub and stretched out his hand to trap her between the wall and himself.She had nowhere to escape.He did not leave the slightest gap for her, so she could only face him directly.She put her hands on his chest and clutched his buttons tightly.He put one hand on his waist and another one under her chin. “I wanted to spare you at first, but you always have to provoke me so much, Stella.”The water spraying out of the shower did not get hot.The two just stood there in the cold water, looking at each other through the hazy water.No one made any further movement.As she was pinned against the wall, her back was cold and a little sore.She seemed to sense that there was no escape tonight, and her hands slowly dropped, as if she was at his mercy.This irritated the man even more.He picked her

    Guinevere stared coldly at the man in front of him. “Calm down? How can I calm down?”If Hayden was here, at least he could calm her down a little.But now, she was facing a psychiatrist who was unfamiliar to her, so she vented all the anger on him. “Is it you? Are you mocking me on purpose? You feel terrified seeing me like this, don’t you?”“No, I…” He ran out of words.This was beyond his professional capability. “I think I should call Dr. Quirk…”She grabbed his phone and smashed it onto the floor.The black smartphone shattered into pieces.The shards of glass were like her heart now, shattered and could never be glued back together again.She knew she was not sick.She was just sick at heart.As long as Weston was by her side, everything would be fine.But he was not.Where was he?...At Lowe Garden.Belle had packed her bags and was a little reluctant to leave the place.But Guinevere was chasing after her, as if she wanted to kill her.Hence, she had no other

    She was still wearing high heels. After walking a few steps, she sprained her ankle.After some time, a red car suddenly stopped in front of her.Her eyes lit up, and she rushed forward. “Please, kind man, can you save me? I…”Before she could say the rest of the words, she choked.The car window was rolled down.Looking at the familiar face, her face immediately showed horror. “It’s you…”...The weather in winter was unpredictable.There was the first snowfall some time ago, and now, there was thunder and lightning.The wind blew at night, and there was no moon in the sky.After a while, it started to rain heavily.The rain came too suddenly, and the pedestrians on the road were in a hurry, all holding umbrellas.The car did not slow down in time, and when it passed through water, it caused a splash and a commotion among the people.With her mouth taped, Belle was thrown in the trunk, tied up all over.She did not know where she would be sent to.She only knew that the

    “Hayden was occupied today, so he had his colleague take over. You know Guinevere’s emotions are very unstable now. His colleague simply could not calm her down. She is driving all over the town looking for that woman. I am not sure if she has found that woman or not. She has gotten rid of all the bodyguards I sent to keep an eye on her. You should go and take care of her. If something happens to her, you will need to answer to the Cohens.”At that point, he paused for a moment. “If Ella’s existence is exposed…”He did not need to say the rest for Weston to understand.Sure enough, there was a long silence on the other end.Henry heard the sound of fabric rubbing, followed by the man’s somewhat chilling reply. “Okay. Keep an eye on Guinevere, and I will take care of it.”“Alright.”He hung up and sighed, rubbing his brows.When he looked out the windows, the thunderstorm was raging, and the lightning struck.The curtain was blown open suddenly. As he stood in front of the large

    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.
