Chapter 873

Author: Boat of Peaches
“Yvonne….” the doctor called in a deep, exhausted voice.

Yvonne stood there stiffly, still refusing to pay attention to him.

Hayden hugged her gently, resting his head on her shoulder. "Stop messing around. Let me hug you for a while."

She wanted to push him away, but all her strength seemed to seep out of her the moment she lifted her arms.

She couldn’t resist his gentleness, though she didn’t return his hug.

He noticed this and sighed inaudibly. "I haven't seen you for a few days. Must you be angry with me?"

He let go of her and raised his hand to straighten her hair. "I'm a doctor, and she's a patient. Do you have to be jealous of us?"

Yvonne huffed. “Why must you both be together so late at night?”

He had been sleeping beside the female patient's bed, and she even answered the phone for him. Wasn’t this beyond the limit of normal?

Yvonne felt that she was not at all unreasonable.

Hayden restrained his expression and let go of his hand.

He sat at the desk, scrunched his e

    Weston’s confrontation shattered her intention of escaping from the mess.If only she had known that he would interrogate her, she wouldn’t have drunk that glass last night.At the same time, she realized how great of a difference Yvonne’s alcohol tolerance was compared to hers.The sound of an opening rang inside her head.Stella raised her arm weakly and pressed it against the man's chest, begging. "Let's get up, okay..."“No.”He lowered his head and kissed the tip of her nose, rejecting her decisively.She was covered in sweat, as if she had been pulled out of the water.A drop of sweat fell from the man's forehead at the same time, creating a splash as it hit her collarbone.......On the contrary, Yvonne, who had high alcohol tolerance, wasn’t in a good mood.When she woke up, she was lying alone inside Hayden’s office.Above her was the white ceiling.She stretched out her hand and touched the side, which was already cold.She sat up and yawned. With sleepiness wri

    She was by no means a patient person, but at this moment, she waited outside with the patience of a saint.After an unknown amount of time, the door opened with a creak…Just as she was about to stand up, she heard whispers from the staff. "Is the lady a relative of Dr. Quirk’s? He takes good care of her. He didn’t sleep well for several days, always by her side..."“They’re not relatives.”The speaker was a young man in a white coat.Yvonne recognized him. He was Hayden’s assistant and a student who happened to be an intern.He continued, "They’re friends."“Since when?”“I think they've known each other since childhood.”“Best friends?”“Yes. I think so.”Yvonne’s heart sank to the bottom of the oceanShe was a girl who grew up with Hayden. Where did this unknown girl come from?As the two spoke, they lifted their heads and saw Yvonne sitting there.“Mrs. Quirk…”Hayden’s assistants also knew her. When Yvonne had the time, she would mingle with the people around Hayden

    Instantly, Yvonne felt like she couldn’t swallow anymore.She put her chopsticks down and cupped her chin with both hands. “Do you know her?”A frown appeared on her face, and impatience flashed in her eyes.Upon calming down a little later, Yvonne realized that she was wrong too, and she sighed."I see... I won't disturb you for the time being. We'll talk about it when you're done."Hayden took out a tissue and wiped the corner of her mouth. "I do know her...""Her husband is my former companion in the orphanage," he added after pausing.She was stunned for a moment. "...she is married?"He nodded.Instantly, her face flushed. “I’m sorry….”He smiled and caressed her head. "It's fine. You've always been like this. I'm used to it."She was originally a spoiled child, and he always indulged her after marriage.“What are you saying….”Yvonne lowered her head. "You’re making me sound unreasonable."He stuffed a piece of lettuce inside her mouth. "No one could be more reasona

    When Stella finally got through Roger’s phone, she heard a female voice answering instead of Roger's. “Ella…”Stella was stunned for a moment. "Riley? Is Roger with you?"There was a long pause.Stella’s heart suddenly sank. "Why hasn’t he been answering my calls? What happened?"Riley took a deep breath before saying, “Ella… Roger’s missing.”Her voice was hoarse, and she sounded fatigued. "We've been looking for him for several days, but we couldn’t find him anywhere."“What?”Stella immediately stood up from the sofa.The whole living room was suffocatingly quiet.At that moment, she was unable to hear anything. Even the chirping cicada outside the window seemed to have gone silent all of a sudden."What do you mean he’s gone? How could such a large guy go missing?"Riley, too, sounded extremely anxious and panicked. "I don't know where he went. He didn't come to class a few days ago, so I went to his tutor and was informed that he was on leave, but he didn't say where

    Stella shook her head, her face pale.“Roger is missing….”Weston was stunned for a moment, but he quickly stroked her hair, kissed, and reassured her. "Calm down and get in touch with his classmates."“I just did.”Stella subsequently related to him the conversation she had with Riley."They said the current conditions are insufficient to call the police. I just called their school to ask, and they said that Roger was on a regular break, and it wasn’t over yet. They would only investigate if he doesn’t return after his break ends..."Weston listened with darkened eyes.He raised his hand and patted her head with his big palm. "Don't worry. I'll send someone to investigate."Right now, Stella wasn’t in the mood to care about anything else. "Thank you..." she said and nodded.The man paused for a while, then sighed lightly. "Stella, you are my wife. You don't need to thank me."Stella was taken aback for a moment as though she didn’t expect him to say such a thing.She lo

    But Weston knew what he meant.Other things could be resolved, but the wedding date was definitely set in stone."Mr. Ford..." Ben was waiting for him.Out of nowhere came Stella’s voice.“Can the date be pushed back?”The two raised their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of the door.She looked pale and walked in.She was anxious, yet she still forced a smile at them. "I want him to be at our wedding..."Ben didn’t say a word.This was their business, after all, though it left him with a little dilemma.Mr. Ford was watching this wedding. So many people in the circle knew the news. It was only a few days away, so canceling might not be the best idea.Unexpectedly, Weston only went quiet for a moment before agreeing. "It can be postponed."Ben immediately looked at him in surprise. "Mr. Ford..."He hated to say it, but Weston had lost all bottom line regarding Stella.Even if they found Roger, he might not be willing to participate in their marriage, not

    The wind by the river blew a cool breeze.Stella’s mind became clearer, but she still couldn’t react. The person she had been looking for for so long was suddenly in front of her.She froze for a long time, then rushed forward and hugged Roger. "I’m glad you’re fine…."Roger’s eyes were red, and he was panting heavily.Without saying anything, he just stared at Weston with disgust and hatred in his eyes.The man stood silently by the side, looking coldly at the picture of the siblings embracing each other, feeling dazzled.Stella took a deep breath and finally recovered.She pushed Roger away and looked at him from top to bottom. "You’re not injured, right? Where have you been during this time? Do you know that everyone is looking for you!"The more she spoke, the angrier she became.The shock and surprise at the beginning gradually subsided, replaced by the fear she had felt these past few days, and it flustered her a little."Where the hell have you been? Don't you know how

    Roger seemed to be agitated by her. He suddenly covered his chest and took a few steps back. His face paled as beads of sweat fell from his face.Stella quickly pushed Weston away and rushed to Roger. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Is there something wrong with your heart again?”Roger gritted his teeth and pushed her away. “That’s none of your business!”“Stop it!” Stella raised her voice and anxiously covered his chest. She turned to Weston and said, “Weston, take him to the hospital!”Weston looked at her in silence. He breathed an inaudible sigh at her anxiousness.“Get in the car.”…After that, at the hospital. The medics wheeled Roger into the emergency room on a stretcher. Roger was unconscious and furrowed his brow hard with his eyes closed. His mind was a blur.Stella watched the two doors close and slid down helplessly as she leaned against the wall.Weston looked down at her and reached out to pick her up. “Don’t worry. He’ll be okay.”He said, “The surger

    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
