All Chapters of Mr. Ford Is Jealous: Chapter 421 - Chapter 430

It was an almost insignificant gesture, but Xavier could see that he had managed to elicit a guilty response out of Stella, and was therefore grinning broadly. "So you do… And here I was wondering how you were strutting around without knowing who Guinevere is."Stella said nothing in return. Pursing her lips, she reached for a tissue to wipe the water splashed over the table.Xavier simply watched as she worked, having no intention of helping her at all. "To be honest, I have nothing to say about this since it's normal for men to have an affair. Still, I could tell that you know enough to listen to advice, so I'm telling you now, don't waste too much effort on Weston…""Are you trying to tell her what to do, when you can't do the same to your own woman?" someone growled from the doorway just then.It was Weston, striding in through the door, his eyes fixed on Stella, who averted her eyes by instinct when she spotted him.Noticing her unnatural response, Weston's gaze cooled immedi

Utterly callous, Weston slowly continued, "And here I thought you had eyes everywhere, that you knew that I never married Guinevere."Xavier's face fell and he stared at Weston in disbelief.Weston chuckled at his reaction, his eyes conveying zero warmth. "Oh, dear uncle… Did you really think you're the only one in the world who could plant moles?"Feeling as if everything he had done turned out to be futile, Xavier glowered, but soon laughed out loud after a long while. "I've never thought about fighting you in that way. Hell, wouldn't you have destroyed me already if I didn't have something up my sleeve?"Clapping at Weston, he continued, "That said, even if you're not married to Gwen, she's still living in your house and the only thing you don't have is your marriage certificate. Don't blame me for not warning you—be careful, or if I get something against you, things would get ugly. Don't you agree?"Despite the years of equilibrium they had maintained on the surface, both of t

The car windows were tinted, meaning that Stella could see outside, but anyone out there could not see her.Even so, she felt anxious, worried that she had been spotted.After all, she had no idea what Roger would do if he found out that she was with Weston.She threw up her hands to cover her face, only to soon realize it was stupid and lowered them.That was when she noticed Roger carrying a backpack and heading inside an office building. Stella glanced at the signboard upfront—it was a networking company that had a decent reputation, but what was Roger doing there?Suddenly getting a foreboding feeling, she whipped out her phone and called Roger.She watched as Roger took out his phone, watching the screen and allowing it to ring for a while before deciding to hang up.Stella gasped, and quickly texted him: [Where are you?]Roger's reply came immediately. [At school, in class.]He lied to her!Scowling, Stella texted back: [What class are you having?]Roger did not both

Stella picked a few ingredients, paid up, and headed home.She looked visibly troubled as she remembered what the woman had told her, just as she knew that no one had come home for a while—the leaves of the potted plants were curling up and withered, indicating that no one had watered it for days. Roger was supposed to be home everyday even if he had classes in the morning. The house was also close enough to his campus, just as he used to cook for himself often.The store owner's words reminded her that Roger had gone for an interview without telling her… was he hiding even more from her? Or did he have other plans?***It was past nine when Roger reached home. As he put down his keys and turned on the lights, he entered the living room and was taken aback to see a person on the couch."Stella?" He was hesitant, but walked up to her after changing out of his shoes, and saw that it was indeed Stella, asleep on the couch.There was a flash of delight on his face. Worried that h

After a while, Stella said, "Did it cross your mind that you'd just end up an average Joe, earning an average salary if you start working so soon? That you won't be able to fight back if something happened to me? On the other hand, if you further your studies abroad, your options are limitless—and you wouldn't be constrained because you prioritized short-term profits." She continued, "For example, if you somehow end up working at the company you interviewed for, you'd be under Weston's control. There is no choice for you but to run at that point, and if he really found me, do you think you can stop him with you being as you are now?"Roger's eyes twitched and slowly turned red, and seeing that he was shaken and his stubbornness slowly crumbling, Stella pushed on. "Right now, I don't need you to relieve my financial burden—we have our savings, and I'm doing just fine. That's why you don't have to pressure yourself. Just focus on your own future and keep climbing, as long as there are
