Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 418
Daisy's expression stiffened, but she said nothing.Still, seeing how respectful Ben was acting toward Stella, she could not resist letting her gaze linger on Stella before turning to leave the office.Even after she closed the door, she was left staring at the office for a long while. Who on earth was that woman?To think that Weston would have a woman other than Guinevere, too…Aside from Daisy, the other secretaries were interested in Stella as well, and they mobbed Daisy the instant she stepped out. "Do you know who that woman in Mr. Ford's office is, Daisy?"Daisy shook her head, but her expression suddenly turned solemn. "Are you girls done with your work? Do you think Mr. Ford would appreciate your reaction when he returns?" Being the head of the secretary department, Daisy spoke on Weston's behalf most of the time. Seeing that she was being dead serious, the other secretaries traded glances, but they returned to their desks, leaving Daisy alone as she glanced thought
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 419
Guinevere found an emptiness in her heart, just as she felt threatened as if Stella Sealey were still alive. She closed her eyes, her mind filled with images of Ella Steele.There was no question that she had lost her composure at the film set, harassing Ella when they were just meeting for the first time.She should not lose self-control like that, but she just could not control herself. Even as she took a deep breath, she saw that Zack was about to burst into another crying fit just then, and she promptly frowned as she snapped, "Alright, stop it! I know you're suffering, but so am I!"The doctor, who happened to be writing a prescription at the time, looked up at her in shock, confused as to why she would suddenly become so bad tempered.Pausing for a moment, Guinevere quickly adjusted her shades and added with a much milder voice, "Be a good boy… Mommy will play with you later, alright?"The doctor withdrew his curious gaze then, shaking his head, but did not dwell on the

Guinevere smiled bitterly then. "There's a sunk-cost fallacy when it comes to love… So, the longer you're in love, the harder it is to let go."Then, as if remembering it just then, she turned toward Xavier. "That's the same for Zeta. She loved you for years too, and she never gave up, even though you're pretty much infamous these days."Xavier was taken aback that she would mention Zeta, and frowned even as he growled, "Why would you talk about her for no reason?"And with that, he turned to leave, with Guinevere watching him from behind. Believing that he was getting grumpy over Zeta again, she shook her head but kept her silence as she followed him.***Meanwhile, a bored Stella was reading her script in Weston's office.It turns out that his meeting proved to be an extensive one, and Ben had to come in a few times to reassure her, eventually telling her that the meeting was going to last another hour.She tried to ask to leave, but Ben would refuse her on each occasion, in
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 421
It was all Xavier's fault for flirting with Daisy, leading to her almost blurting out the truth.On the other hand, Xavier could tell that she and Ben were hiding something. Walking up to Ben, he asked, "What could be so important, Ben?""You may ask Mr. Ford that when he returns," Ben replied."You're such a bore," Xavier grumbled, but just before he was about to leave, he stopped in his tracks when he glimpsed a woman's figure in Weston's office. … Guinevere Cohen? How did she get here so quickly?He had just sent her home, too… And she had managed to come before he did?It could not be…With that in mind, he strode off toward Weston's office, catching Ben off guard. "Mr Ford!" He cried in an attempt to stop him, but it was already too late—Xavier had opened the door and stepped through the doorway, locking eyes with Stella, who could not hide her surprise in time."You?!"Stella sprang to her feet as well. "Xavier Ford?"Xavier stared at her for a while and straightened
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 422
It was an almost insignificant gesture, but Xavier could see that he had managed to elicit a guilty response out of Stella, and was therefore grinning broadly. "So you do… And here I was wondering how you were strutting around without knowing who Guinevere is."Stella said nothing in return. Pursing her lips, she reached for a tissue to wipe the water splashed over the table.Xavier simply watched as she worked, having no intention of helping her at all. "To be honest, I have nothing to say about this since it's normal for men to have an affair. Still, I could tell that you know enough to listen to advice, so I'm telling you now, don't waste too much effort on Weston…""Are you trying to tell her what to do, when you can't do the same to your own woman?" someone growled from the doorway just then.It was Weston, striding in through the door, his eyes fixed on Stella, who averted her eyes by instinct when she spotted him.Noticing her unnatural response, Weston's gaze cooled immedi

Xavier was aware that things had cooled between Weston and Guinevere, but he did not expect Weston to be so callous toward Zack. Walking up to Weston then, there was a stern look on his face as he growled, "I am your uncle, and even if you've lost your mind over some woman you have on the side, you're the only one who loses in the end."Despite her silence until now, Stella could no longer bear to listen to their conversation, especially with the way they spoke of her. Scowling, she took a deep breath and rose to her feet. "Since you two have so much to say, finish it in one go. I'll leave you two to it."With that, she shook off Weston's hand and left right away. Xavier's lips curled up mockingly as he watched her leave. "See? Treasure her, and she'll forget her place and get obsessed with getting ahead of you. I'm telling you, you don't have to go so far with women like her—"Before he could finish, Weston had punched him squarely in the face. Unable to react at all, bloo
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 424
Utterly callous, Weston slowly continued, "And here I thought you had eyes everywhere, that you knew that I never married Guinevere."Xavier's face fell and he stared at Weston in disbelief.Weston chuckled at his reaction, his eyes conveying zero warmth. "Oh, dear uncle… Did you really think you're the only one in the world who could plant moles?"Feeling as if everything he had done turned out to be futile, Xavier glowered, but soon laughed out loud after a long while. "I've never thought about fighting you in that way. Hell, wouldn't you have destroyed me already if I didn't have something up my sleeve?"Clapping at Weston, he continued, "That said, even if you're not married to Gwen, she's still living in your house and the only thing you don't have is your marriage certificate. Don't blame me for not warning you—be careful, or if I get something against you, things would get ugly. Don't you agree?"Despite the years of equilibrium they had maintained on the surface, both of t

Stella had already decided that she would not get hurt as long as she did not have expectations.Now, she would not be interested even if Weston gave her the indisputable truth, because she was no longer the Stella Sealey from the past.***Everyone in the secretaries' offices stood up the instant they saw Stella leave Weston's office, and stood in a row to greet Weston despite their surprise. "Mr. Ford…"Daisy did not expect Weston to lead Stella outside himself to the public's eye, even holding her hand as he did.There were many moles in the company, especially those who belonged to Guinevere. In fact, Daisy had only presumed Stella to be Weston's mistress at best, and that they had not gotten past the honeymoon stage for the moment. Naturally, she never imagined that Weston would show zero inclination to hide her while so many were watching.While he was not introducing her to everyone, he had a hand around her waist, looking utterly possessive that anyone who saw them un

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1435
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
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1430
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
