Deep in the night, the wind that blew past felt slightly chilly.

Yet, it failed to awaken Stella from her stupor.

She stumbled against a billboard and tried to steady her breath. She looked at the man before her and said, “I think I feel slightly unwell. Could you take me to the hospital?”

Justin instinctively tried to hold her up.

However, the moment he touched her, Stella felt an inexplicable sense of desire course through her veins.

When she looked into his eyes, she suddenly pulled her hand back like she was scalded, feeling a strong sense of repulsion and torture.

The sight of her caused realization to dawn on Justin.

“You probably touched something unclean. In a place like that, even if you didn’t eat or drink anything, they would still be able to make you inhale something through the air inside.”

“No wonder…”

Stella furrowed her brows. “I thought that smell was normal in places like that.”

She never expected that a fragrance would have such a big impact.

    A service staff walking past the corridor jumped in shock from his sudden movement and immediately plastered herself against the wall, not daring to move an inch. Weston ignored her completely and headed outside in quick, huge strides. He pulled at his collar, but still felt stuffy despite being in the fresh night air. After he left, the people in the private room finally had the freedom to speak their minds. “I was so frightened just now. I’ve never seen Mr. Ford behave as scary as he was just now…” “Having known him for so many years, who knew that someone would have the guts to offend the high and mighty Weston Ford of Ahn City, the man whom everyone must bow down to!” He was like a sleeping lion, a natural king of the jungle, staring down from his lofty and superior position at all the small and insignificant creatures below him fighting and fussing amongst themselves. Someone like him never bothered to blow his top. Not because he had a good temper, but because no one

    So noisy… Why was it so noisy? Stella was already in much pain to begin with, but the unrelenting noise by her ears which sounded like people fighting worsened the pain further. “Mr. Hall…” She called for him once again. “Could you take me to the hospital?” Justin stepped forward and looked into Weston’s eyes, “Mr. Ford, do you hear that? She’s calling for me.” Weston fell silent as he glared at the woman in his arms. Yet, he still showed no signs of handing her over to Justin. He was serious when he delivered that punch to Justin earlier. Justin touched the roof of his mouth with the tip of his tongue, which sent pain shooting through his face. Stella was probably not the only one who needed a doctor right now. He probably needed one himself, too.With that thought, he glanced tentatively at Weston.What relationship did he really have with Stella? It must be close enough for him to get so agitated.In his impression, everyone else always knew Weston as the cold princ

    That was why when everyone saw him enter the room again, they were all struck with fear and no one dared to even breathe, thinking that he had returned to settle scores. He brought a cold, foreboding air around him into the room. “Bring some women over.” He added coldly, “I want women who know how to serve well.” The manager was stunned for a moment, thinking that he must have misheard Weston. This was Lowe Garden, a place chock full of beautiful women. Some even call this a mini version of the entertainment industry, where all sorts of beauties could be found. He wouldn’t have any doubts if it were anyone else who raised such a request. Almost every other significant figure of high society would come here for a good time. They naturally knew who Weston Ford was, and the consumption habits and preferences of most people who came here. However, a man like Weston did not fancy being surrounded by hordes of women. As such, he wouldn’t arrange too many women in drinking and mer

    He was entirely shrouded in darkness and surrounded by a solemn air. This made the woman rather fearful. “Mr. Ford…” Her voice hid tones of deliberate femininity and gentleness, which was starkly different from Stella’s voice. Weston’s eyes turned cold in an instant. “Shut up.” Belle immediately kept her silence, not daring to say anything more. Her sudden shrinking back in fear was very similar to Stella in the past. Weston tightened his grip over her chin which made the woman yelp in pain, “Mr. Ford!” Weston pulled her head down with more force. “Be good.” Her scalp throbbed with pain. Belle did not expect him to be so forthright and could only kneel submissively before him. These things went without saying for the women of Lowe Garden. Many things were left unspoken, but everyone knew the rules clearly. With trembling hands, she touched his buckle. Weston lowered his head to look at the top of her head, imagining the scene from earlier when he had Stella under hi

    He had no idea what had gotten into him that turned him into a despicable hypocrite at that moment. He handed the bag of medicine over to Stella and said, “The doctor said that it isn’t much of a problem, just some aphrodisiac fragrance. You are highly allergic to such things which was why you had such a huge reaction. Just head home and have a good rest.” Stella nodded and looked at Justin. Despite the fact that his wounds were already treated, it was clear that Weston used a lot of force in that punch. The corner of Justin’s lips was badly swollen and the bloodshot black and blue area looked terrifying. Stella felt guilt wash over her. “I’m very sorry, Mr. Hall, to have created trouble for you.” Even someone as mature and steady as Justin felt somewhat embarrassed at being beaten up so badly by another man in front of a woman he liked. He touched the corner of his lips gently and said nonchalantly, “Only childish people solve problems with violence.” Stella chuckled lig

    Justin had no time to react and could only step down hard on the brakes. The wheels screeched loudly against the concrete road. Everything happened so quickly that Justin could only instinctively stop the car. He immediately turned to Stella. “Are you alright?” Stella shook her head as she stared at the familiar-looking luxury car right in front of them, a bad feeling overcoming her. “Who’s that in front?” Justin followed her line of sight and looked at the car in front of them. Realization finally dawned upon him as he realized that the car in front of them was a limited-edition Cullinan. He had a guess as to who was in that car. To think that Weston Ford turned out to be a man who would go back on his word! He sneered in disdain inwardly as he thought about how Weston repeatedly acted so out of character because of Stella… The look he gave Stella was complicated as he tried to collect his thoughts. He had just backed up from the roadside when that black luxury car

    Justin could tell what was going on in Stella’s mind and his face turned solemn, “Dispel that thought in your mind. I cannot possibly bring myself to hand you over to him. What kind of a man do you take me for? One who would simply hand you over to a man like a plaything?” Perhaps because of how nasty the term “plaything” sounded, Stella remained silent for a long while. Justin did not say anything further. He simply maneuvered the steering wheel and drove the car forward. He didn’t believe Weston would be bold enough to crash his car until it was unable to move. No matter how powerful and daring he was, he had to care about societal opinion and his public reputation! Although Justin’s status in the industry could not be compared to that of Weston’s, he did have his own network. He didn’t believe that Weston was capable of squashing him to death! Justin looked at the Cullinan on his tail from his rearview mirror. He knew that it would be difficult to shake him off and could

    Stella was the trophy in this battle, and she had no right to speak and voice her opinions. She was merely the bargaining chip between two men’s clash of egos. Even though she completely did not want to get herself involved, she was still forced to be in the center of the vortex, torn between the forces from both sides. This time, Justin managed to widen the distance between both cars. He drifted neatly at the next junction and threw Weston far away from them. That did not make him lower his guard as he continued maintaining his breakneck speed. Just then, he remembered that Stella was still seated next to him and took the time to reassure her, “Don’t worry. We managed to shake him off.” Before he could say anything further, a huge crash sounded. A huge impact came from behind and the car groaned under the force. Justin looked in disbelief at Weston’s car which had overtaken him, and was speechless with shock. He had his usual leisurely expression on his face, with an a

    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.
