“Of course,” Mrs. Cohen agreed.Dr. Quirk glanced at Weston before turning on his heels and heading into the funeral hall.He reappeared not long afterward, announcing with some relief, “Miss Cohen is in a stable mental state. There’s no cause for concern at the moment, so, you can rest easy.”Hearing this, both Mr. and Mrs. Cohen sighed in relief. But they then quickly looked at each other with quizzical eyes. The fact that Zachary’s death did not cause Guinevere much psychological turmoil felt peculiar…But still, they wished for nothing more than for her mental health to improve as soon as possible, so they just thanked the doctor and left. They had wanted to take Guinevere with them too, but she had expressed her wish to stay by Zachary’s side a little longer. As they didn’t have the heart to say no to that, they relented.There were then only Weston and Dr. Quirk left in the main hall.Dr. Quirk was the first to break the silence, saying, “I’ve heard about Ms. Sealey. So, wh

The corners of Weston’s lips twitched. He smiled, but there was no mirth in his eyes. Only a flash of bitter coldness remained.“But I must warn you,” he said. “You may choose to take his side, but are you sure he’ll be powerful enough to protect you?”“Warren Ford is still the chairman of Ford Corporation. He is, for all intents and purposes, more powerful than you.”“You can try it then,” Weston patted his shoulder. “I’ve never forced anyone to do anything. In fact, I prefer working with people shrewd enough to judge how things will turn out before they make a decision.”Once he was done speaking, he strode away and left the place. Dr. Quirk looked at his disappearing figure and shook his head. “Lunatics… They’re all lunatics…”The Ford family driver drove him to the crossroads when Dr. Quirk stopped him and said, “Just drop me off here.”“But Mr. Ford instructed me to drop you off at your house.”“It’s fine,” he insisted. “I’m getting off here. I’d like to take a walk.”

“I’m sure even Lucas is hiding something from you,” Dr. Quirk added. “Impossible!” Yvonne refuted instantly. “Lucas and I grew up together! I know absolutely everything about him!”“Are you sure?” Dr. Quirk chuckled, which sounded suggestive. Yvonne frowned as soon as she noticed his expression.“Are you telling me that Lucas is hiding something from me?!”“Hey!” Dr. Quirk laughed and put up his hands in the air. “How did we end up talking about this? Weren’t you just asking me about Stella Sealey?”“I was asking about Stella,” complained Yvonne, “but you kept skirting around the subject. You’re clearly not willing to tell me the truth!”Dr. Quirk shook his head. Then, he smiled and asked, “Do you mind if I smoke here?”“Yes!” Yvonne replied bluntly. “I absolutely do mind! I hate the smell!”“Seriously,” Dr. Quirk burst into laughter again. “Lucas is probably the only man who can stand that horrid temper of yours!”“Well,” she grumbled, seeing that she could not tease any i

Weston frowned. “I’ll be home soon,” he assured her.Back at the Stardust Mansion, Joan sighed in relief and replied, “I’m glad to hear that. Should I prepare anything for you, Mr. Ford?”“No.”After hanging up the phone, Joan turned around and discovered that Stella had been standing behind her.“Mrs. Ford!” Joan almost jumped in shock. “How long have you been here…?”Stella said nothing. She then stared at Joan and casually told her, “I heard everything you said on the phone just now.”“E-Everything?” Joan’s heart skipped a beat. “What exactly did you hear…?”“He’s with Guinevere Cohen right now, isn’t he?”Joan’s eyebrows shot upward.“Mrs. Ford, I wouldn’t worry too much about it…”“How could I not worry about it?” Stella’s eyes were fixed on Joan. Perhaps it was because she hadn’t eaten anything the whole day that Stella’s face looked blanched and sickly. Her eyes fell on Joan’s phone, and she said, “Let me see it.”“Mrs. Ford,” Joan tried to explain, “it’s really

Joan sighed, wondering if he could really be with Guinevere.Stella knew Joan was not asleep yet, so she came out of the room wrapped in a woolen shawl. “...You should go and get some rest. It’s getting late now.”“Mrs. Ford?” Joan looked at the frail figure in front of her and couldn’t help but comfort her, saying, “I’m sure Mr. Ford is held up by something urgent right now. Once he’s dealt with everything, I’m sure he’ll come home. Don’t you worry about it. I’ll wait for him here. You can go inside and get some rest…”“I’m not waiting for him anymore,” Stella shook her head. “You should go and get some rest too.”She smiled and added, “He’s probably by Guinevere’s side.”After all, their son had just died. As Zachary’s father, it was only natural that he would be with the child’s mother right now. Stella had nothing against that.“Mrs. Ford…” The more she acted that way, the more Joan felt bad for her. “I’m certain Mr. Ford will come home once he's dealt with everything out t

“Mr. Ford, you’re finally home…”Joan seemed immensely relieved to see him.“Mrs. Ford still hasn’t eaten or drank anything yet,” she informed him. “I really am at a loss of what to do.”For a moment, Weston froze in silence before handing the car to the driver to be parked.“I know.” He turned back to Joan and added, “It’s getting really late. You should go get some rest now.”Joan nodded repeatedly. She was now completely relieved. “It’s good that you’re back. It’s good that you’re back…”As Joan got older, she still retained her conservative view of things. To her, it did not matter what Weston and Guinevere did when they were together that night. As long as he came home in the end, it meant he still cared about Stella.As for what could have happened between them, to Joan, it was customary for men to lose control of themselves and make mistakes sometimes. It was good enough that he came home in the end.By the time Weston entered the bedroom, the first light of the day

“No,” Stella shook her head. “I just had no appetite…”“I did promise not to force you to eat anything,” Weston cut her off. “But that was only if it doesn't affect your health.”He glanced at the shimmering light on the horizon. It was already sunrise, and rays of sunlight had crept into the room through the curtains.“You should go eat something,” he added, kissing her on the forehead.Stella frowned. She truly had no appetite at all, but she also knew that there was no arguing with Weston, so she kept quiet and said nothing.Joan was already asleep by then. Weston had no intention to disturb her either, so he put Stella down on the sofa and went into the kitchen himself.Stella did not have a good sleep at all, basically having tossed and turned all night. Even so, she probably wouldn’t be able to fall asleep now if she tried. Weston knew this too, so he allowed her to watch TV, hoping to kill time and relieve her boredom.Stardust Mansion was much quieter early in the morn

Chapter 1048

She used to think that a man like Weston probably did not know how to take care of himself in terms of daily chores. Perhaps that would be his sole weakness.But then again, although someone of his stature had no need to bother himself with such trivial matters, that did not mean he did not know how to do it.He had rarely ever stepped into the kitchen, yet he could easily rustle up a dish that tasted pretty good in spite of his inexperience. Stella could not help but wonder how such a lucky man could exist in this world. Everything he wanted was seemingly served up on a silver platter for him. There was just nothing that he could not have or do.“Judging by your expression,” Weston scrutinized her closely, “it doesn’t look like you enjoyed the food.”Stella smiled and put her spoon down. She looked straight into his eyes earnestly and said, “I have a question for you, Weston. Do you always get what you want? Was there ever anything you wanted that you couldn’t get?”He paused b

“I’m going to the study,” he replied. “I’ve got some work to do.”“But you haven’t rested since last night, have you?”“I’m fine,” he grabbed her hand and placed it back under the blanket before leaning down to kiss her forehead. “Unless…” He brushed away the hair on her cheeks, then looked at her as if he could read her mind. “...you need me by your side for you to fall asleep?”He treated her so gently that Stella even doubted if the conflict between them had even existed.She pursed her lips and softly said, “I’d like to meet someone.”Weston remained silent, his expressions unchanged. His eyes were steadily glued on her.“I just want to meet Aunt Diana once,” she added. “Please?”“Tell me why.”She took his hand and pressed his fingers. He had long and straight fingers that looked very elegant. Stella always thought of how much more enchanting those fingers would be if Weston could play the piano.“I know you don’t want me to see anyone else,” she said, “but I have somet

Chapter 1050

She used to have a comically whimsical idea that she would carve out her own successful career, then escape Weston Ford’s grasp through the power and reputation she had gained.But now, when she looked back, she could not help but find the notion silly and naive.The power gap between them couldn’t possibly be bridged by her individual efforts alone. It was the same as what happened after Zachary’s death. She had no way to protect herself or fight against those determined to see her getting convicted as Zachary Ford’s murderer. Even Weston didn’t believe that she didn’t kill the boy. Indeed, he was doing all he could to help her escape punishment, but he never truly thought she was innocent.Stella was inside a quiet private room of a restaurant, contemplating the words she should say and the best way to tell Diana the truth when the door was suddenly pushed open. The person walking in turned out to be Michael Sealey—“We meet again, Stella.”Under her surprised gaze, he took a
