Chapter 981

Guinevere hurriedly covered the boy’s mouth and demanded he stop crying. “Stop crying!“Why are you so naughty?” Guinevere frowned.Zack wailed and bawled and kicked and stomped, giving Guinevere no choice but to take him to the room upstairs. She didn’t want to disturb the other guests, nor did she want them to catch her in an embarrassing situation.Just as she reached the top of the stairs, she saw Chris Ford approaching.“Gwen!”Chris had always been kind and gentle towards Guinevere, but now that he saw her holding hands with Zack, his heart grew even more affectionate for her.“Zack!” Chris walked up to the little boy and teased, “Who’s with you right now, Zack?”Zack was pouting with a long face and ignored everybody. He seemed to be in a rotten mood.“What’s wrong?” Chris asked. “Who made you unhappy, Zack?”“He’s probably met too many people today,” replied Guinevere, “and he’s likely overwhelmed by it all.”Hearing this, Chris glanced at Guinevere and sighed befor

Guinevere originally intended to prevent Stella from getting closer to Zack by building a stronger bond with him. But if she were perfectly honest, she had to admit that she never nearly had the patience to deal with Zack herself.Thus, the best solution was to let Wendy take Zack.Hearing Guinevere’s suggestion, Wendy frowned, looked at her derisively, and jeered, “Didn’t you tell Father that you wanted to spend more time with Zack so you two could bond? So what happened? Don’t you want to get closer to your son now that Stella is not here?”Guinevere turned deathly pale. She hung her head low and said nothing, not knowing how to explain herself.Seeing that, Chris turned to Wendy with some discontent and scolded, “Why do you keep embarrassing her like that? You’re not young anymore, you know…”He’d been bringing up her age a lot lately. “Fine!” Wendy glowered at him. “Just think of me as a nosy old woman! Just continue with whatever you were doing, and don’t mind me!”As she

Things had come to a point where Chris completely neglected her health problems. For instance, the last time Wendy went for a medical checkup, he didn’t even ask her any questions about it at all.The realization made Chris feel a little guilty.“I’ve been busy lately,” he told Wendy, “so I didn’t have much time to take care of you. I promise things will be different from now.”“What exactly have you been busy doing?” Wendy sneered. “Weston has been in charge of the company all this time. In fact, I can’t think of a time when you’ve been busy lately!”Chris was left flustered with his lies so mercilessly exposed.“When did you become so mean?!” he snapped.The fact that he could never be as talented as Weston had always been his sore spot, and Wendy had so bluntly set it on fire.“I was only concerned about your health,” he said, still feeling a little humiliated, “yet here you are, always so eager to put me down!”“Why don’t you just go back to Guinevere and take care of her?”

Stella appeared calm and composed, but her back was soaked with cold sweat.“Mom?” she asked while resolutely putting on a calm facade, perhaps because she was hiding something. “What’s wrong?”“Nothing…” answered Wendy with a shake of her head. Stella’s voice brought her senses back.Sure that Stella must’ve not known about how poisonous the oleanders were, she tried to warn her. “That plant over there…”Crash!Before she could finish, a loud noise coming from the window interrupted her.The two women jumped in fright. They hurried to where the noise came from and saw a black figure crashing into the room from outside. The window had been broken in, and the floor was littered with shards of shattered glass—“Careful!”Stella’s split-second response managed to stop Wendy from getting hit by the flying glass.Wendy was so spooked that her face turned white as a sheet. She stood motionless and stared at the figure lying on the floor. “What… What on earth is going on here…?” sh

Just then, the bodyguards and the housekeeper rushed into the room—“What’s the matter, Mrs. Ford?”“What happened here?!”The housekeeper had worked at the Ford Mansion for many years, and the second he saw Wendy collapse on the sofa, he hurriedly rushed over. “Madam! Did you have another heart attack?”This revelation surprised Stella. She asked Wendy, “So you have… heart disease?”Wendy nodded. By now, she had calmed down significantly.“I’ve had it for many years now,” she explained.She then turned to the housekeeper. “Don’t worry, I’m fine. Stella has given me my medicine.”“Thank goodness…” The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze turned towards the stranger in the room, then frowned and asked sternly, “What’s going on here?”That plump man had been stunned because of Wendy’s sudden heart attack, but he came back to his senses upon hearing the housekeeper’s sharp voice.“I’m sorry, boss. I slipped and fell just now…”The housekeeper looked around to evaluat

Weston made Stella stand up. She glanced at her potted plants destroyed by the man who fell in earlier and became somewhat distressed.“The soil is full of broken glass…” she grumbled.“Let others deal with it.”Weston’s eyebrows twitched when he saw that she was about to clean up the soil with her bare hands. With a much sterner voice, he told her, “Stop. You’ll hurt your hands.”He forbade her from doing anything else and pulled her away.“Did you get hurt just now?”“No,” she shook her head. “I didn’t.”She then paused to think before asking, “Does your mom have a heart disease?”“Yeah,” he answered briefly, casting his eyes down at her. “She’s had it for many years.“We’ll move to another room,” he told her as he led her to the bathroom. “Someone will come and move our stuff later. Right now, you should wash all the dirt off your paws.”Weston was a notorious neat freak. In fact, he was almost at his limit when he had to suppress his revulsion while holding her dirty ha

Weston said nothing. He leaned against her face, and kissed her a few times before murmuring, “Once we get to the new room, you can rest for a little longer before the dinner happens, okay?”The tone of voice that he used suggested tender intimacy, as if they were a loving married couple. They both had something in common—they were both excellent pretenders. Even though their relationship was so damaged that it was like a ship riddled with holes, as long as Weston was willing, they could easily put up an act and pretend that they were deeply in love with each other.Stella nodded and replied, “Okay.”… The staff who were supposed to help them move their stuff had been waiting outside. Stella frowned as she watched them move her potted plants from the balcony.“Let me handle that one,” she told them.She looked at her oleander plant worryingly, fearing that they might damage it somehow. “It looks like you care a lot about that plant,” Weston stated as he held her waist.

Once the staff had moved everything upstairs, Stella immediately closed the door. Within a quarter of an hour, the extremely efficient crew had cleared up the old room and moved everything to the new room upstairs.The Ford Mansion was so massive that it contained hundreds of rooms. Because of Weston’s obsession with cleanliness, he would never stay in a room that had been used before. Luckily, very few had ever been to the upper floors of the Ford Mansion. The suites there were also brighter and more spacious than the ones below. The potted plants were arranged on the balcony of the new room just as they were previously. Stella walked over to the oleander plant, kneeled down, and carefully observed it. Some promising flower buds had already shown themselves. After tonight, they would all be in full bloom.With that in mind, she plucked one, careful not to touch the moist sap on it, and calculated how many she would need to have enough poison to kill an adult.How many she w

Stella had only ever seen such a long table on TV. She never thought that there were people who would use it in real life.But the Fords were a large family that numbered in multitudes. Once all were at the table, Weston introduced some of his relatives to her. Stella, in turn, greeted them all politely.Clearly, they were all curious about her, though they maintained a friendly and courteous demeanor in front of her.Wendy made sure to express her satisfaction with her new daughter-in-law. The words she said were obviously a hint that the others should treat Stella well and build a good relationship with her.These people were all shrewd by nature and knew exactly how to read expressions.If there was one person there who clearly wore a forced smile, it was probably Guinevere.With Warren Ford there, she could just barely concoct a reason to join the family dinner. Besides, she was also Zachary Ford’s biological mother, and since she was taking care of him today, it seemed rea

It all happened so suddenly that no one had the time to react. There was a sizzling sound coming from that glass bottle. Stella’s eyes widened—At that critical moment, she had a hunch that the liquid inside the bottle was acid!She could only watch as the liquid was hurled toward her. There was no way that she could escape it now. The man was obviously aiming it at her. The last thing she saw before she could react was seeing the liquid coming at her head-on. “Aaaah!” a piercing scream rang through the hall—The whole table was turned into chaos.Everyone there could only watch as it happened in front of their eyes. None of them moved or reacted.Just as Stella had lost all hope, a tall figure cropped up by her side—Without the least hesitation, Weston grabbed Stella’s shoulders and turned her around, locking her in his arms.The pain that Stella expected to feel never came…She shut her eyes tight, but she heard Weston grunt above her. Then she felt his grip around her s
