Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 427
Having tasted the pain of being forced to give up her dreams, Stella did not want her only family to have to go through the same thing.Right now, she could be dancing or playing the piano on a grand stage. Instead, she was here, staying at Weston's side as a secret mistress and having to meet her worst enemy every day while she led a soulless life.Weston seemed to see through her then, and gently kissed her forehead in sympathy. "Like I said, say yes and I can give you anything you want."Stella pursed her lips and forced a smile, but kept quiet.She would be leaving Weston in a year—if she said yes now, things would be complicated when she leaves. The opportunity she had won from Bradley Lane was different because she had done it by her own strength. However, if she were to take what she wanted by using her relationship with Weston, she would become the very kind of person she had always held in contempt. Looking up pleadingly in his arms, she asked, "May I go home for the n

Stella picked a few ingredients, paid up, and headed home.She looked visibly troubled as she remembered what the woman had told her, just as she knew that no one had come home for a while—the leaves of the potted plants were curling up and withered, indicating that no one had watered it for days. Roger was supposed to be home everyday even if he had classes in the morning. The house was also close enough to his campus, just as he used to cook for himself often.The store owner's words reminded her that Roger had gone for an interview without telling her… was he hiding even more from her? Or did he have other plans?***It was past nine when Roger reached home. As he put down his keys and turned on the lights, he entered the living room and was taken aback to see a person on the couch."Stella?" He was hesitant, but walked up to her after changing out of his shoes, and saw that it was indeed Stella, asleep on the couch.There was a flash of delight on his face. Worried that h

Even now, Roger was unwilling to tell the truth.However, Stella also realized that she was hiding a lot of things from Roger as well.When did they begin to keep so many secrets?Since neither of them had been home for a while, they cleaned it up before settling on the couch to watch a movie together. It was the usual family comedy they liked to watch, and the novel gags never seemed to get outdated despite the movie lacking actual meaning.However, Roger's phone rang halfway through, and he got to his feet. "I'm turning in, Stella. I'm sleepy and there's still class tomorrow…"He barely finished when Stella glowered. "Are you going to class, or to an interview?"Roger froze at her words, and he wheeled on her, asking, "What?""Are you going to class, or to work at some networking company?"It took Roger a long while to realize what she was talking about. "How'd you find out?"Putting the TV remote on the coffee table, she turned to look at him. "Were you going to hide it fro

After a while, Stella said, "Did it cross your mind that you'd just end up an average Joe, earning an average salary if you start working so soon? That you won't be able to fight back if something happened to me? On the other hand, if you further your studies abroad, your options are limitless—and you wouldn't be constrained because you prioritized short-term profits." She continued, "For example, if you somehow end up working at the company you interviewed for, you'd be under Weston's control. There is no choice for you but to run at that point, and if he really found me, do you think you can stop him with you being as you are now?"Roger's eyes twitched and slowly turned red, and seeing that he was shaken and his stubbornness slowly crumbling, Stella pushed on. "Right now, I don't need you to relieve my financial burden—we have our savings, and I'm doing just fine. That's why you don't have to pressure yourself. Just focus on your own future and keep climbing, as long as there are
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 431
There was nothing but emptiness in her heart. It seemed that time would ease her pain. She placed her hand on her chest and told herself that she would never forget this feeling no matter how long it passed.She knew what Weston had in mind. He probably thought he could make her stay by his side forever within a year.If he was still interested in her a year later, he expected her to go along with him and stay with him. However, if he was no longer interested in her, he could use the one-year promise to chase her away.He always had control, but Stella did not want to go on like this anymore....At the same time, at the Ford Mansion. The door was closed when Weston arrived. As it creaked open, it smelled of rust. The villa had been around for years. It became an icon of the city—a century-old mansion and prosperous family that would never decline.The black limousine drove in slowly as the butler waited in front and bowed. Weston got out of the car and looked at the closed

She had grown furious after his rejection. She did not understand what she was thinking back then. She had thought that even if she could not have him, she must make him remember her forever. Therefore, she had gone to Chris…Guinevere closed her eyes tightly. Hayden did not know what she recalled, but he knew she must have remembered the truth of the past. He continued to calm her down. “Take a deep breath. You have to face the truth before you can truly let go.”Guinevere took a deep breath with him, but her heart was filled with hatred. She calmed down, but she could not let go.Whenever she thought about what she did on impulse that night, she just could not stop drowning in an abyss of regret.She wondered—if she had not acted on an impulse that night, would things between them be different? Would they still get stuck in a dead-end like this?If she had gone to another man instead of Chris, would things with Weston be different?Even so, she could not let go.She wanted t

Guinevere sounded a little angry. “We’re getting married soon. Shouldn’t we discuss these together?” Weston remained silent and fixed his dark gaze on her.Guinevere looked at his eyes and suddenly became a little obsessed. It was those eyes and that handsome face that enchanted her throughout her youth.Weston was a very desirable man. Why else would she have done something so stupid just to get his attention?She was too young and dumb. She could do anything to make him look at her.When she thought about it again, it was indeed really ridiculous. However, what was done was done. Guinevere refused to turn back.Although he pushed her away, she immediately hugged his waist again in the next second. “You’ve been really cold to me lately. You weren’t like this before…”“I’ve always been like this,” Weston reminded her again.“N-No…” Guinevere cut him off. “You used to be more patient with me. Why can’t you even spare a moment for me now?”“Because I’m busy with the Fern City p

Weston remembered something when he was about to leave. He turned around to face her and said, “About the set…”Guinevere’s eyes lit up when he asked about her work. “I’m doing fine on the set. The crew has been taking good care of me. You don’t have to worry.”Weston nodded. “You’ve just resumed work. You'd better not get any bad press.”“What do you mean?”“You should understand.” Guinevere froze for a moment. She wondered if Weston knew she was giving Ella a hard time, but she quickly dismissed the thought.She figured Weston probably did not know that Ella was on the same set. They had not been in touch since they met at Yvonne’s house.She felt she should not overthink things.“Don’t worry. I’ve been in the entertainment industry for years. I know how to deal with the media. There won’t be any bad press.” Weston then turned to leave.Guinevere looked at his back as he left. Her eyes suddenly darkened. After he left, she took out her phone. “Find out who Ella has been s

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
