All Chapters of Mr. Ford Is Jealous: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Stella quickly squashed the crazy idea. She couldn’t possibly put Roger in a position where his only living relative was a criminal.The clinking and clanking noise arose from the kitchen when Stella started cooking. Weston was sitting on the sofa in the living room. The news was playing on the television, but he wasn’t paying any attention to that. He was more interested in the noise that came from the kitchen. Weston realized that he had always taken all these little details for granted in the past. He wondered how many precious moments he’d lost forever. Stella did not put as much thought into the cooking as she did in the past, because she no longer had any interest to please Weston. All she wanted to do now was complete a chore that she was assigned. With that, she made a bowl of very simple chicken noodle soup and brought it out to the table. She noticed that it was looking a little too plain, so she quickly chopped up some scallions and garnished it on the soup. The little

The night was chilly and the room was silent. It was almost two in the morning. Stella had settled into a deep sleep, no longer mumbling or talking.Weston had been by her side for more than an hour, but she had only just calmed down. But now that she was sound asleep, Weston was still too restless to go to bed. He was dressed in a long silk nightshirt. The dark blue satin fabric clung to his tall muscular frame. He stepped out onto the balcony and carefully slid the glass door close so as not to make a sound. For a while, he stood there and gazed through the glass at Stella who was lying on the sofa.Then he turned around and rested his arms on the railing as he looked down. The courtyard downstairs looked different under the soft illumination of street lamps. The bright green leaves looked dark and gloomy now as they rustled in the night breeze.The swaying shadows of the trees danced on the balcony, making it look like a scene from another dimension.Weston pulled out a cigare

Yvonne thought nothing of Stella’s response, but she did stare at Stella and hesitated whether she should say what was on her mind.Stella noticed this. Now that she had got her gift, she was sure that Yvonne would have something to say to her. She didn’t want Yvonne to feel awkward, so she took the initiative to bring it up herself.“If you want to ask me anything,” she started, “then just ask it. I won’t hide anything from you.”Seeing that she was so straightforward about it, Yvonne saw no point in beating around the bush.“So are you and Weston now…” Yvonne studied Stella’s face with seriousness.Stella said nothing in reply, but merely responded with a smile. It was a joyless smile though and she looked more resigned than happy.Yvonne immediately understood what Stella was trying to say.“How dare he!” she snapped.Stella shook her head repeatedly and grabbed Yvonne’s hand. Her face was turning pale.“Please don’t worry about this, okay?” Stella begged Yvonne. “I don’t w

Although Mr. Smith couldn’t make it back home in time to take Ruby to the audition, he’d made all the necessary preparations beforehand. All Ruby needed was an adult to accompany her there, since she was still a child.The driver was already waiting downstairs, so once Ruby and Stella got into the car, they headed straight to the movie set.Stella had never been to a place like this. From afar she could see countless different equipment all set up in a wide area. There was a stage in the center of it all where the lights were focused on. Someone was on that stage holding a walkie-talkie and giving out commands to the large crew.Ruby, on the other hand, seemed to be familiar with the place. It was obviously not her first time on a film set.“Miss Steele,” the girl said when they arrived, “I think you should contact the director’s assistant. Everytime I’m here, Daddy would take me straight to him.”Stella nodded and followed the procedure that the nanny instructed her earlier. She

Because it was extremely quiet on Weston’s end of the line, he could clearly hear the background noise on Stella’s end. Weston was sitting on the sofa. The black genuine leather felt cold against his skin. The rest of the room was just as cool and serene.“Where are you?” he asked Stella.Stella explained exactly what happened. There was only silence when she finished speaking, as Weston made no reply.“Can I… go home a little later today?” Stella hesitantly asked.Weston glanced at the time.“How late is a little later?”Stella pursed her lips and looked around the set. Things seemed to be in an uproar, with people shouting and hurrying around. Even as she stood there in a relatively quiet corner, she was still in someone’s way from time to time.“I don’t know how long this’ll take,” she replied. “Once I’m done, I’ll let the driver know.”Weston remained silent. Stella’s heart was pounding as she awaited his answer. She could never guess Weston’s mood or temper. She was al
