Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1151

Stella smiled and hid the strange look on her face. After she learned that she‘d be making a trip to Ahn City in a few days, she couldn‘t help but think about her messy past.

Miguel Garcia did not notice her thoughts. He smiled gently at her and said, “It‘s my job to take care of you.”

At first, Miguel treated Stella like a sister. However, the more time he spent with her, he found a lot of new emotions in her.

A few years younger than Roger and only twenty years old at the moment, Miguel was too young. Stella was already twenty–five.

She was still very young, but she had gone through a lot and matured from her experiences. She was no longer as childish as before.

“You‘ll graduate from Compassvale in two years. By then, Grandpa Marcus will let you take over the family business. If you want to shist the focus to another country, you‘ll have to go there to tender your cooperation...”

As she spoke, her voice became quieter until it was inaudible.

Miguel seemed like he could read her mind. He put down his knife and fork and straightened his bow tie.

“If you don‘t want to come with me, I can‘t put it off...” he said to her with a sigh.

Stella shook her head. After a short silence, she told her,” Don‘t let me affect your plan. The people and Ahn City have become things of the past.”

“But the children‘s father is there,” Miguel said. Then, there was silence at the table.

The two children sat in their places and behaved well. Emma blinked her dewy eyes and played with the bread crumbs on her hands.

Stella looked at her helplessly and took out a tissue to wipe it for her. As soon as she leaned over, Emma kissed her directly on the cheek, leaving an oily trail on her face.

Stella gave her a gentle and helpless pat on the head.” You‘re a girl. Why are you always so naughty?”

Meanwhile, Elias stood from the side and kissed her on the cheek too. The siblings were not shy and refused to lose. They kissed Stella‘s cheek one after the other. Stella hugged both of them at once.

After a short playtime , Stella turned to Miguel, who sat across the table. She told him, “I don‘t know if you understand how I feel now, but with these two, I feel like I‘m not afraid of anything anymore.”

Miguel looked at her steadily and realized she had spoken those words from her heart. He nodded after a long pause. “Okay. There‘s just one more thing. You have to promise me.”

“About what?”

“He‘s Elias and Emma‘s biological father, after all. If anything happens, I hope I can protect them legally.”

Stella was a little confused about what he meant.

Miguel took a document and handed it to her. “I want to be their legal father.”

Stella frowned and pushed his hand away at once. “Are you crazy? You‘re only twenty!!!”

“I‘m not crazy.”

Miguel fixed his eyes on her. “We‘ll go back to Ahn City. If Weston finds out about this, I‘m sure he won‘t let you go. He might come back to haunt you. I‘ll need a proper identity to justify it. Otherwise, I can‘t let you go back to Ahn City.”

Stella instinctively refused his offer. She had always treated Miguel like family. Miguel‘s face resembled Roger so much that she sometimes treated him as Roger. Stella refused, “No. We can think of something else.”

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1152

Stella was about to ask Miguel if he had a crush, as she wanted him to start dating. However, she did not expect him to make such a ridiculous proposal.

Even so, Miguel insisted, “If you don‘t agree, I won‘t go to Ahn City.”

“Will you stop that?” For the first time, Stella found Miguel incredibly naive.

“It‘s just a document, not a real marriage. This will help to grant me legal status. Stella, what are you afraid of?”

Stella let out a breath. She knew he would not stop.

After a short silence, she told him, “I won‘t sign the document, but... If I really need you to pretend to be my other half, I won‘t expose you.”

That was all she could say. Otherwise, with Miguel‘s capriciousness, he might give up this opportunity for her sake.

“Okay. That‘s a promise from you.”

Miguel was glad to get her agreement and did not push her any further. Then, he put the papers back and went back to his meal.

Miguel was in a very good mood today. He was all smiles when he took Stella home.

Presently , Stella no longer lived with him at the estate. She had moved out on her own.

At first, Miguel had a problem with this. However, Stella thought it was better to be on her own with two kids. Fortunately, Grandpa Marcus did not say anything and allowed her to move out.

Even so, Miguel visited her often and stayed overnight occasionally.

Stella and Miguel shared a close relationship. Stella treated him like family. If it was not for him, she would not be who she was.

Miguel carried Emma to the bathroom right after changing his shoes. “Let‘s take our stinky baby to the bath!”

Miguel was a bit of a neat freak, which was very different from Roger. Roger was a boy at heart and he cared little about the nuances of hygiene.

Thanks to his parents‘ teaching, although lazy, he was not as lazy as some boys. He didn‘t smell as bad as them and at least, maintained basic cleanliness.

Miguel was very different. He was probably a little obsessed with cleanliness like Weston. He would clean up whenever he arrived home.

“A girl has to stay clean!” Miguel carried Emma to the bathroom and made her laugh and giggle. After the bath, the little one was a little tired.

Emma hugged Stella‘s neck softly. “Mommy..

Stella melted at Emma‘s soft mutter.

Soon, the two children were dozing off. Stella then put them both in their cribs in the nursery and walked out of

the room with ease.

When she saw Miguel still sitting on the sofa, she had to go up to him. “It‘s late. Aren‘t you going home? Grandpa might be worried about you.”

“I‘m a grown man now. What does he have to worry about?” Miguel said indifferently, cleverly avoiding Stella‘s real question.

Stella gave him a helpless look. “You know that‘s not what I meant.”

“I know.”

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1153

Miguel nodded slightly. “Why do I feel like you‘ve been avoiding me lately?“.

“Have I?” Stella took a sip of water and concealed her emotions. “I‘ve agreed to go to Ahn City with you. What do you mean?”

“It‘s not that, but... I don‘t know how to describe it.”

Miguel sighed again. He said, “Have you ever felt that you‘ve been avoiding me emotionally?” Miguel believed he had made it clear.

Stella instantly frowned. She put the glass of water down and looked him in the eye. “That‘s irrelevant. I‘ve always treated you like my own family.”

“Is that so?” Miguel was stubborn. He said, smiling, “We can be a family as husband and wife too.”

“Miguel!” Stella raised her voice at once. She said to him sternly, “Don‘t make jokes like that. I don‘t like it!”

Stella treated Miguel like Roger. When Miguel said those words, it brought her back to the time when Roger made his bizarre confession in the hospital.

Stella felt like a failure. She had no idea what she‘d been doing all these years. She could not believe that she did not realize Roger‘s feelings for her.

Miguel was surprised by her overreaction . After a short silence, he said, somewhat hurt, “Aren‘t you being a little too conservative? We‘re family, yes, but we‘re not blood related. You don’t have to keep pushing me away...”

The weather was getting a little cool. Then, the rain started to pour.

It was almost midnight. Stella stood on the balcony and watched Miguel leave angrily.

She sighed heavily. They had just engaged in a very harsh argument.

Miguel said nothing. After looking at her for a few moments, he picked up her car keys and turned around.

She sighed heavily. They had just engaged in a very harsh argument.

Miguel said nothing. After looking at her for a few moments, he picked up her car keys and turned around.

Stella didn‘t know how to express her emotions. The feeling of exhaustion engulfed her.

For the past three years, she lived a peaceful and happy life. With her job and career on the rise, she had everything she wanted in her hands. However, she inevitably felt empty and uncomfortable.

Looking back, she missed her parents and Roger a lot. Even so, she was fine with what she had.

Stella did not want to get involved or respond to Miguel‘s feelings. She was at a loss, having no idea how to handle their relationship.

Miguel expected everyone to be asleep, but he found the living room brightly lit as he arrived home. He walked over and saw his grandfather Marcus sitting on the sofa in his favorite black nightrobe.

Marcus Garcia sat there quietly. When he heard the movement at the entrance, he turned over to see Miguel. “Why are you so late? Were you at Cicily‘s place again?”

Miguel nodded. “Grandpa , why are you still up so late?”

“I heard some gossip about you two today. You picked Cicily at Infinity Hall with flowers and looked pretty close,” Marcus said in a casual tone. He sounded as if it was nothing serious.

Miguel observed the look on Marcus‘s face and was a little relieved to see that he wasn‘t here to ask questions. “This is between the two of us. Don‘t bother.”

Marcus was older and more enlightened. In the past, he would use his influence to force a couple to break up, but his son‘s tragedy woke him up.

Marcus never did something like that again. Instead, he was very careful at dealing with Miguel. “I‘m not lecturing you. I just thought the both of you shouldn‘t blow things out of proportion. If it‘s not confirmed yet, don‘t make yourself a laughing stock...”

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1154

After all, the Garcia family had claimed that Stella was their adopted daughter.

Stella and Miguel were regarded as family members, and if they became a couple suddenly, it would hurt his reputation, not to mention their five–year age gap.

Miguel frowned at Marcus‘s words. “What era is it now? Why are you still so conservative?!”

“Besides, couples with big age differences are common now. She‘s only five years older than me. So what?”

Marcus wanted to say something else, but Miguel cut him off. “I suppose you‘re going to talk about the two children again, right? You better not!”

Miguel said in a straightforward manner, “As you know, I‘ve never believed in marriage for a long time. If I don‘t get married, no good girl would be willing to bear my child out of wedlock, is there? Besides, don‘t you like Elias and Emma too? The two little ones are so beautiful, cute, and smart. Isn‘t it good to have them as my children?”

Miguel‘s words angered Marcus. “What nonsense are you talking about? If you are going to be with Stella , you‘ll have a child with her after a few years!”

Miguel was only twenty. He was in no hurry to have children. However, he would still need a woman to bear his child, regardless of whether he stayed with Stella or not.

Miguel did not take it seriously. “I don‘t care what people say. I know what I want. Just stay out of my business.”

Marcus sighed heavily. “I‘m too old to be controlling young people like you. I won‘t complain as long as you study hard now and take over the Garcia family business in the future.”

Marcus was an old blond man who spoke to Miguel in French. The family had a maid who had been with them for many years, and she had become almost like a family member.

When it was time, the maid came over to help Marcus go to his room to rest.

Later, Miguel returned to his room and turned on his computer. On the screen were Weston‘s details. Miguel looked at it sullenly with indistinct emotions.

Miguel and Stella did not meet until the flight. They thought it would be awkward to meet again after their cold war, which lasted a few days. Miguel acted as if nothing had happened, however. When he saw Stella at the airport, he came over and took her luggage naturally. “Why didn‘t you bring Elias and Emma?”

“They‘re still asleep in the car. I‘ll go get them when it‘s time to board,” Stella said.

Miguel frowned. “Did you leave them alone in the car? Do you how many stories have emerged about children who suffocated in cars?”

“Of course not. The nanny is watching them.”

Miguel breathed a sigh of relief. “That‘s good.”

Stella looked at him steadily, unable to describe her feelings. She truly realized that Miguel treated her

children as a family. He could not have asked that kind of heartfelt concern for them.

Soon, they boarded the plane, and Stella and the two children fell asleep as the aircraft took to the skies.

Miguel watched as Stella slept soundly, observing the fine features on her face with voracious eyes.

Stella did not have a seductively pretty face, but she was pretty without makeup and had good skin.

Twenty–five years old was a very good age. She had lost her innocence and naivety of her teenage years but wasn‘t overly mature as someone in their thirties. She was right between the age of a little girl and a grown woman.

Miguel thought even if Stella was still a teenager, he might like the youthful impulsiveness she had. Who knew, he might even still like her in her thirties or forties.

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1155

Upon arrival, Miguel naturally offered to help them with their luggage.

The group was at the airport.

Elias and Emma had returned to their home country for the first time. There was something about the people around that made them feel close to home.

Stella could tell that the children were both nervous and happy. After all, they were always surrounded by blondies and foreigners abroad.

Although her family looked similar, it was exciting to see so many people of their own ethnicity on the street. As expected, Stella‘s homeland felt different.

Stella had been abroad for so many years, living a happy life, but when she returned to her homeland , she felt a familiarity that no other place could give her.

Stella took Elias and Emma with her. After they got into the car, Stella gave the driver an address.

Miguel was a little surprised and looked back at her.” Why don‘t you go to the apartment next to Fern University?”

Stella chuckled. “It‘ll take a while to get there. Let‘s find a place to rest.” After that, she suddenly realized something and looked at the person in the front passenger seat with suspicion in her eyes.

“I don‘t remember saying that I lived with Roger in an apartment near the university.” In fact, she rarely mentioned anything about Roger to Miguel, especially her stories in Ahn City and Fern City.

Miguel paused for a moment. His face turned stiff with a flash of guilt. However, he soon returned to his usual state.

Miguel said to Stella, “Did you forget? You managed to fake your death and escape Weston before. I helped you to get such a big thing done. Your residence is just simple information. What makes you think it‘s that hard to investigate where you live?”

Stella seemed a little more convinced after Miguel explained. She answered with a nod, “We‘ll go back to Ahn City for now and settle down. I‘m meeting someone.”

Stella had never told anyone about her return , save for one person–Bradley Lane. She had been keeping in touch with Bradley over the years.

Bradley would share her news with her other friends, since Stella couldn‘t contact them directly. After all, she was afraid Weston would find out about her through them.

After the news of Stella‘s death got out, Weston went quiet for a while before he returned to living a normal life again. It was business as usual.

Weston was in his office in the Ford Corporation building. He had just completed a contract negotiation when Ben knocked on the door.

“Mr. Ford, you‘ve got the rest of your schedule free.”

Weston answered with a nod. “What did the church say?”

“You may go there at any time.”

It had been three years after Stella‘s death. Weston seemed to have moved on from the past.

Ben was worried at first. He thought Weston would be devastated by Stella‘s death. However, he seemed to have come out of it after Stella‘s burial.

Weston started to live a normal life again. Meanwhile, a lot of things had happened in the past three years.

For example, when Guinevere‘s affair came to light, she became a complete loser. She was then put in a mental hospital.

All the things she did were gradually exposed, not to mention that she was the one who hired the kidnappers years ago.

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1156

The Cohen family wanted to bail Guinevere out of jail, but they didn‘t realize that Weston had already gotten a hold of the family‘s weakness a long time ago.

Too busy taking care of their own affairs, the family naturally had little time to care about Guinevere‘s problems.

Guinevere had tried to end her life in the sanatarium many times, only to be thwarted by Weston, who wouldn‘t let her have an easy death. He was determined to make her go through the same suffering as Stella, or even worse.

Weston would not spare anyone who had hurt Stella, and that included himself.

Guinevere‘s affairs involved too many people. Warren was so angry about it that he became ill and was still in bed. He did not recover from his illness.

Soon, Weston retook control of the company.

Weston originally made a deal with Xavier. He would give up his position as long as Xavier helped him to remove Warren from power.

Xavier wasn‘t expecting what was about to come. After he took over, the board of directors was very unhappy with him.

When they compared Xavier‘s performance to Weston, the consensus was that Weston was better suited for the position.

Xavier then realized Weston‘s plan. Weston used his

retreat as a good move. The board could make a comparison with Xavier in power. It would better reflect Weston‘s ability to lead the company as well.

In the end, everything Xavier did was in Weston‘s favor.

However, Xavier realized it too late. He had no choice but to hand over all the technology he had built up to Weston.

Weston adapted quickly. At last, he took over the reins of Ford Corporation. Even so, Weston did not break his promise to Xavier, giving him position and power.

Meanwhile, he took all of Chris‘s shares back and kicked him out of the board. When the story came to light, it became the most bizarre news in Ahn City. Everyone was talking about it.

Guinevere always had such a good person to the public. No one would have thought that Guinevere would do such a thing!

Chris and Wendy were known as a perfect couple and were never caught up in any scandals throughout the years.

Before the big revelation , everyone thought Weston and Guinevere would follow Chris and Wendy‘s example. No one expected Guinevere to have an affair with Chris. As though getting between Chris and Wendy was not bad enough, she even gave birth to Zachary, who was Chris‘s illegitimate son!

When the story broke , Wendy immediately announced her divorce from Chris. At first, Chris begged for mercy on his knees, trying to keep her. However, Wendy was determined to leave him. Thus, Chris had no choice but to ask Warren to step in.

Chris did not expect Warren‘s reaction to the whole scandal. Warren was so ashamed of him and slapped him in the face. Not long after, he was hospitalized due to his anger and could not be bothered about him.

Chris went to Weston for help. Weston, of course, simply ignored him.

Stella was already dead. Weston was in despair and did not want to see anyone. For a while, Ben was worried that Weston would die for love.

However, something happened later. Weston suddenly moved on and recovered from his grief. He acted as if nothing had happened and was back to his old self.

Xavier and Wendy were helping to take care of the company‘s matter.

After the scandal , Wendy figured out that she no longer wanted to stay at home as a housewife or a rich wife. She wanted to make a comeback in her acting career.

At her age, there were not many roles for her to choose from. Fortunately, Wendy was not picky with the opportunities.

Having gone from being the best actress to playing the mother of some C–listers, she didn‘t care about that and received a lot of praise for her acting skills.

The Ford family had been the laughingstock of the circle for some time. After all, it was such a bizarre story. As a son, Weston actually willingly raised his father‘s illegitimate son. Of course, most of the mocking laughter was directed at Chris.

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1157

Wendy had tried to repair her relationship with Weston on several occasions, but after a few tries, she realized that the void between them was way deeper than she had initially expected.

Wendy had long been aware that something was wrong between Guinevere and Chris, but she refused to trust her intuition at that time and pretended she knew nothing.

Despite that, more and more things happened after. When the truth was laid bare in front of her, she could no longer deceive herself.

Wendy knew she'd been selfish in her younger days, caring only about love and nothing else. She neglected Weston, which led to the development of his cold personality.

When she finally wanted to make up for it, it was already past the best time.

If she cared about Weston too much, it felt more like a burden for him.

Weston was becoming more and more of a money-making machine devoid of feelings. He became even colder than he was a few years ago.

No one dared to mention that person’s name to him. Stella’s name was taboo in the circle. No one could say her name, especially in front of Weston.

Stella’s story seemed like a legend frozen beneath the water, unable to see the light of day ever again.

Incense was burning at the altar in the church.

Weston changed into a white shirt and sat on his knees. He held a bracelet in his hands and asked sincerely, “Father, will she come to my dream tonight?”

The usual scent of cedar on him was replaced by the scent of sandalwood incense.

The priest sat in front of the altar and looked at Weston from above. “If you’re not sincere enough, her soul won’t be able to gather. Naturally, she won’t appear in your dreams.”

As soon as the priest said that, the usually indifferent and cold man began to look distressed. Weston seemed to be drowning in the bitterness of self-reproach, along with more obsession and madness.

“What should I do to prove my sincerity?”

The priest frowned and suddenly said in a mysterious tone, “It seems like we'll have to use the old way. However, this method will be tough...”

Weston looked up at him. “Tell me. What should I do.”

The priest sighed. “We'll guide the soul with blood.”

Weston remained in front of the altar. A small copper basin with a delicate classical carving on the outside was placed in front of him.

Ben watched as Weston slashed his wrist with a knife and yelled incredulously, “Mr. Ford, what are you doing!”

The blood flowed from the wound, dripping little by little until it formed a stream that dripped into the incense burner.

Weston couldn't feel the pain at first. He looked at the deep wound on his hand indifferently. “With my blood as a guide, I’ll see her soul soon...” he muttered coldly.

“Mr. Ford, all this is a lie! Come to your senses!” Ben urged. “How can you believe in such baseless nonsense?”

Before this, Ben had turned a blind eye to Weston’s crazy actions.However, he could not stand it any longer.

Weston had searched for many so-called experts who could bring Stella’s soul back, but they were all quickly sent away. It was said that those people failed to meet his expectations. They did not have the ability to gather the soul of the dead. How could anyone be capable of this?

Later, someone came and bragged that he could do it. Weston kept him.

Now, why would the all- mighty president of Ford Corporation believe in this kind of absurdity? Wouldn’t he turn into a laughingstock?

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1158

Weston seemed to be deaf to Ben‘s advice. He quietly watched as the blood from his wrist slowly dripped into the ancient copper basin.

The thick blood and copper color formed a strong contrast that looked strikingly beautiful. However, it was just too weird.

Ben had to bite the bullet. He stood in front of Weston and tried to stop his madness. “Mr. Ford, you can‘t go on like this. You‘ll faint from bloodloss...”

Weston ignored him. He focused his attention on the priest and asked him, “Is this enough?”

The priest wiped his sweat and nodded slightly. He said, “ Whether she can come to your dream or not is still an uncertainty. If your feelings aren‘t sincere enough...”

Weston suddenly cut him off coldly, “Did you deceive me?”

The priest frowned. “Everything in heaven and earth is about destiny. If you‘re not fated, no matter how you push it, you won‘t have it. I’ve told you from the beginning. You‘re pushing it now. If you must have the result, I can‘t help you.”

Ben understood immediately. The priest was just a liar. He made Weston do this and that, but nothing worked in the end.

Ben told Weston, “Mr. Ford, don‘t go on like this. Mrs. Ford has been gone for three years. She‘s not coming back anymore. Accept the fact...”

At the end of his sentence, Ben sensed the cold air around him.

Weston‘s eyes were as cold as a layer of thick frost. For the first time in years, Ben mentioned Stella in front of him.

Weston remained silent. Then, he made another cut on his palm with the knife.

As the thick drops of blood splashed down, Weston asked in a hoarse voice, “Is this enough?”

At this point, he no longer believed what others said. The saying that using the soul of the dead to bring back the dead was ridiculous. Weston knew in his heart that it was impossible.

In desperation , Weston turned to make dreams, hoping to see Stella in them. Even so, the results were not satisfactory.

Weston had trouble sleeping for the past three years. His insomnia was very serious.

He had been to many doctors, but all of them said it was because of the trauma in his heart.

Ben had watched Weston grow colder and colder over the past three years. There was nothing he could do about it. After Stella‘s departure, no one could convince him to change his mind.

Ford Corporation grew blossomed over the years, gaining an international reputation that surpassed many major international brands.

Weston did all these at the age of thirty. It would be his thirtieth birthday in two days.

Ben sighed at Weston‘s cold, lonely figure, not knowing what to do.

It was a cold morning. Weston stayed up all night. He stood on the balcony, looking at the stars outside the window.

It was late into the summer. Although the days would see rainy showers, the nights were a little warm.

Joan went home three years ago, saying she had to take care of someone.

Weston knew it was just an excuse. After Stella‘s death, Joan did not want to stay anymore. Weston gave her a large sum of money and let her go. After all, Joan was the one who had taken care of Stella well. He wanted to treat her as well as possible.

Weston lived in Stardust Mansion alone. When he was not working, he would stay at home and occasionally clean the house.

The place was full of memories of his life with Stella. It was just a few years, but the memories of her shadows lingered everywhere. Weston thought his feelings would fade with time. However, it seemed like his memories of Stella became deeper as time passed.

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1159

Weston had so many questions for her.

Stella said she had loved him for years. He wanted to know what she meant.

He thought they had a lot of time left together, but he did not know they would be separated forever in the blink of an eye.

Ford Corporation had grown at a phenomenal rate and became a globally recognized company. Weston was at the top of the list of the richest men in the world. He was the youngest person on the list and had a face like a celebrity.

Everyone knew about the powerful Mr. Ford, the man who captured the hearts of wealthy and famous women in the city. Few, however, noticed his increasingly gloomy personality.

It had been a long time since Xavier had a chance to get together with Weston. Even Henry had not seen him for a while.

Henry and Weston fell out because of Guinevere‘s affair.

Henry, Weston, and Guinevere grew up together, which was why Henry still had some affection for Guinevere. Plus, she used to mean something very special to him.

When Weston had Guinevere locked up in a mental institution and tortured her, Henry intervened to lessen her suffering.

Weston soon noticed Henry‘s actions and naturally kept his distance from him. He also removed all of Henry‘s people.

Henry argued with Weston because of this. However, Weston did not compromise with him. He went on with his plan against Guinevere as he wished.

The Cohen family was not spared. Anyone who dared to help the Cohen family was considered his enemy.

Weston was looking through the papers in his hand in his empty office.

Ben came in and told him about his following schedule.” Mr. Ford, there‘s a lunch party at the Cloud Club this afternoon…”

Hearing that, Weston looked up at him and said, “Cloud Club?”

Weston was unwilling to go to a place like this. It was always noisy. Besides, the women there would always try to cling to him.

He became more uncomfortable with women than before. However, there were always people who tried to approach him daringly. Without exception, none succeeded.

There were very few women around him over the years. Ben was aware of this and was very careful whenever he arranged a schedule for him. However, it was a very important client this time.

Weston frowned and finally agreed. He appeared at Cloud

Club that night, and when he walked in, he found the private room empty.

Sensing that something was amiss, he looked around to see a figure walking over from not far away. It was someone he hadn‘t seen for a long time.

“Fashionably late, as expected from the richest man around. You‘re now so casual when doing business,” Henry said and came over with a glass of wine.

Henry had donned a nice suit and looked like he was attending a grand event. Persistent and successful rehab over the years enabled him to be free of the wheelchair.

It seemed everyone was moving forward from their past. Only he and Stella were left in the same place.

Weston gave him a cold glance and said nothing. Then, he turned around to leave.

A woman in a short dress appeared behind him and stopped him from leaving. She said embarrassedly,“ Sorry, Mr. Ford. I planned this on my own...”

She motioned Weston to look at the LED lights behind her. Weston found the words Happy Birthday written in large letters.

Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1160

Weston‘s face turned sullen: “Who told you guys to do all these?”

Daisy fell silent with a slightly unpleasant expression on her face. She smiled stiffly and explained to Weston, “I‘ve been worried that you‘ve been so down for the past few years, so I thought I‘d throw a party... I personally cooked for you, and I hope you‘ll like it.”

Daisy had all her lines ready, but she always fumbled whenever she faced Weston. She was no longer the same confident self she once was.

Weston did not say a word and pressed his fingers against his brow. He showed no response, though the gloominess in his eyes stayed like a long–lasting fog.

Daisy felt intimated by his cold gaze. However, there was no turning back at this point, and she could only bite the bullet and try to convince him to join the party. “It’s time for the meal. You‘re already here anyway. Why don‘t we sit down and have a meal?”

Ben also said, “Mr. Ford, why don’t we have a seat? It‘s been a long time since you‘ve had a break.”

As soon as Ben finished his sentence, they heard another person‘s footsteps coming from the other side.

“Mr. Ford...” Nicole came over and looked at them in surprise. Then, she turned around and looked at Xavier behind her.

Nicole told Xavier about her intention to celebrate Weston‘s birthday. She had to go through a lot of trouble before she found Xavier, and it took more than her fair. share of convincing to get him to agree.

Nicole was going to talk to her sister about this, but Daisy was her rival in the pursuit of Weston. Therefore, Nicole gave up and found her own way. Unfortunately, Daisy got her way first.

Xavier glanced at Daisy indifferently.

She felt a chill from his stony gaze. Not expecting Xavier to show up, she kept her head down, not daring to look at him. At the same time, she was a little angry and frustrated.

Xavier knew she was pursuing Weston. Why did he interfere?

He was Daisy‘s ex–boyfriend and technically her ex fiance too. Daisy did not want Weston to think she was still involved with Xavier.

Xavier gave her a cold and sarcastic laugh. “Long time no see. So you‘re here for Weston‘s birthday?”

Daisy forced a smile. “It‘s been a long time.” After that, she looked at Weston and tried to find some emotion on his face, but there was nothing but a flash of impatience.

Xavier walked to Weston with Nicole. He smiled and teased him, “You‘re so lucky. These two rushed here to celebrate your birthday. They‘re sisters too.”

His tone was thick with sarcasm, which stiffened Daisy‘s face.

Nicole, on the other hand, seemed unaffected. Her eyes darted around as she tried to think of a way to strike up a conversation with Weston. She did not care about the man beside her. Xavier and Daisy were former lovers, and there was nothing strange about giving her a few mocking remarks. This made her chances even better.

Nicole walked to Weston with a bright smile on her face.” Mr. Ford, I‘ve asked the chef to make some of your favorite dishes. I wonder if you‘d be so kind to...”

One of the sisters had cooked on her own, while the other arranged for the food. Ben listened to the conversation and had a headache. He could not help but peek at Weston‘s face.

Weston looked as usual and did not seem to be affected.

A few moments later, Weston looked at Henry indifferently. “You‘re here. Come. Sit down and eat.”

Weston was indifferent to everything nowadays. Ben obviously saw it and he could only sigh in his heart.
