“Okay.”

The door closed. Stella went to the balcony and watched as his car drove away.

From the rearview mirror, Weston watched as her reflection lengthened and finally faded into a black dot. He pressed his temple, but the joy on his face remained.

The driver could tell that he was in a very different mood today.

“Mr. Ford, did something good happen? You seem really happy.”

“Is that so?” Weston closed his eyes.

...

Joan did not quite understand their matter, but she was happy to see them getting along nicely.

When she came out after some simple housekeeping, she saw Stella sitting in the living room and sipping her soup. As she stopped in her tracks, her smile faded.

Stella appeared happy and excited earlier, but she looked a little gloomy after that.

“Ms. Steele, do you need help?”

Stella came to her senses and looked at Joan. She then shook her head and smiled. “No, I’m fine. I’m going out later. Can you get me some clothes?”

“Sure.”

Fern University.

    “I’m his sister.” She emphasized, “His real sister.”The girl breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Roger with hopeful eyes. Roger was a little anxious. He did not know what to do, so he looked at Stella for help. Stella shrugged. “Why are you looking at me? Take care of your own business.”Then, she turned around. “I’ll go upstairs and wait for you. Come to me when you’re done.”“Sis...” He felt a little helpless and wanted to follow her, but the girl persistently followed behind him.Roger sighed. He explained to her, “I’ve applied for the offer to study abroad. I won’t be staying in school after that.”He thought that would make her stop, but she seemed more surprised and happier than he thought. She said chirpily, “I’ve applied to the same university as you. Don’t you know? The corporation sponsorship found us suitable, so they accepted us both!”However, she noticed Roger’s face changed after she said that. She hastily explained, “I'm not confessing my love to you becaus

    “No. I’m transferring to another university soon.”Stella was stunned. “What?” Roger was shocked too. “Mr. Hall, did you get a better offer?” he asked in disbelief.Justin breathed a sigh. He smiled and poured them some tea. Then, he sat on his chair and blew on the tea before taking a sip. He explained, “Yes. I resigned not long ago. I’m probably leaving here next month to teach at Ahn City.”Stella and Roger were very familiar with Ahn City. They exchanged a glance but said nothing.Justin continued, “Bryce will also be moving there to study soon. I’ve thought about it. He may need our company now. Tina’s law firm is mostly focused on Ahn City. We have a lot of differences because of this matter, so we made this decision.”As he spoke, he gazed intently at Stella and wanted to see her reaction. However, Stella did not show any displeasure. Instead, she looked very glad and relieved.“It seems like you have a chance of getting back together with Tina.”Her reply made Justin s

    After the door closed, Stella and Justin were left alone in the office.Stella looked at Justin. “Mr. Hall, is there anything else?”Justin suddenly looked at her very seriously. “How are you getting along with Weston now?” Stella did not answer while she took a sip of hot tea. The green tea leaves slowly sank to the bottom of the cup as the tea aroma lingered in her mouth.“What are you going to do next?” Justin changed the question again. Stella finally answered, “I don’t know. I’ll take a step at a time.”Justin nodded. After a short while, he told her sternly, “I heard from someone in the circle that Guinevere is now investigating the women around Weston. Be careful.”Stella looked up at him and frowned. “Weston said he’d take care of it.”Justin smiled and did not say anything. “There are too many men like that… I’ve lived longer than you, and I’ve met more people than you. “Ella, many men are like that. They’re gentle and generous to their mistress, but when any confl

    Fortunately, the mark was hidden under her jaw, close to her ear. Her hair was draped on her shoulder, so no one should be able to see unless they looked closely. That was why Roger had not noticed it.If Roger had seen it, the consequences would be serious. She would not be able to explain herself. After all, it was obvious to know where she got the mark from. It was impossible to fool Roger.Stella subconsciously tried to raise her collar a little to cover the red mark, but Justin shook his head. “It’s still easy to see, and it’s more obvious now.”He suggested, “Why don’t you put on a scarf? It’s winter anyway, so it won’t raise suspicion.”Stella panicked. “I’ll go and buy one now…”“No need.” Justin took out a gift box from the drawer and handed it to her. “If you don’t mind, take this. It was meant for Tina, but I couldn’t give it to her because we split up not long after. I don't need it anymore. If you don’t mind, just take it. Otherwise, it’ll be wasted anyway.”Stella

    Stella smiled helplessly. “Don’t you feel you think too highly of me?”“Why shouldn't I?” Roger patted her shoulder and said sternly, “You're so good-looking. You may be okay with normal men, but I won’t accept them so easily!”He suddenly became solemn. “I’m serious... Sis, if you do get a boyfriend, can you at least tell me?”Stella did not know why the topic suddenly changed to her and her future boyfriend. He pushed him on the back. “Well, you should go to class now. I have something to do. I’ll come back and see you in a few days.”“You’re going to work, right?” Roger still could not accept it, but he did not reject it as much as before. He said to her, “Stay safe.”“I know. Do well in your class.”Roger had met Bradley before. Perhaps Bradley gave Roger a good impression of the crew and changed his mind. He seemed like a responsible person. Stella had to thank Bradley. She would have a hard time explaining to Roger if it weren't for Bradley.…After that, Stella got int

    The office fell into silence since Weston started speaking. Everyone wanted to hear him clearly, so it was so quiet that they could hear a pin drop in the office. Even the slightest noise would echo in the space. When everyone sucked in a cold breath, the sound of their breathing could be heard clearly.Weston never showed his emotions to others. He remained stoic no matter what happened. However, his expression seemed a little stiff at this moment.Ben, who stood beside him, was shocked. He stood still, not daring to breathe.In the end, it was Weston who recomposed himself first. He slid the message away and said, “Let’s go back to the topic.” His voice was calm, as if nothing had happened.Those who could be in the same meeting as Weston were naturally the senior management in Ford Corporation. They were experienced in their work and had seen a lot of things. Although they were shocked by the message, no one dared to discuss it openly. 'Maybe it was Guinevere’s message…' That

    Weston called as soon as Stella arrived home. She ran a few steps and sounded out of breath. As soon as she entered the house, she immediately answered the phone.When the call connected, she heard the man’s voice calling out to her fondly. “Stella.”Stella paused a little. In the past, only her parents would call her this way. Sometimes, she felt that God really favored Weston too much. God blessed him with all the good things. He was blessed with good looks, a distinguished family, and a perfect low and magnetic voice.Stella sat on the couch and asked, “Am I interrupting?”“No. I was in a meeting earlier.” Stella suddenly lowered her voice. “Did you see the text I sent you…” Weston answered with a hum and casually loosened his tie. He suddenly felt a little hot. “I saw it.” Stella suddenly pretended to be fierce. “Do you know that someone else almost saw me with the mark today? How do you expect me to explain it?”“Just let them see it. There’s nothing much to explain. We

    “Here you go.” Ben immediately handed the files to him.... Stardust Mansion. Roger had a lot of documents relating to his application to study abroad. Stella made a copy of some important information. She had a lot of things to ask Weston later, which was why she acted so affectionate with him earlier.As she went through the documents, she found a very difficult problem.Weston helped resolve the issue of Roger and her identity. If Roger wanted to go abroad, they would need Weston’s help.Stella sighed. After she made the preparations for her work tomorrow, she checked the time. Since it was about time, she sent Weston a message.[What time are you coming back tonight?]Weston was in the car. He just went to see a client and was on his way back to the company. He leaned back in the car and closed his eyes to rest. When he saw Stella’s message, he replied almost instantly. [Soon. About an hour and a half.]Stella thought about it and sent her reply. [Why don’t I pick you

    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.
