Ch. 1181..1190
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1181
Even if Daisy hated her and was disgusted with her, she still had to take her side. This was so Weston would pay more attention to her.
After thinking it through, Daisy said to Weston, “I won‘t make such a mistake again. I‘ll take care of whoever you care about...”
Weston waved his hand and motioned for her to leave.
Daisy responded and quickly reverted to being a professional secretary. She arranged his schedule for him and said, “There‘s a dinner party at The Dog House tonight. It‘s a meeting with the boss of the upcoming steel business in Ahn City. If we work with him, we can have large savings.”
“Then arrange it.” Weston agreed to the schedule, so Daisy took the file and left.
Weston had no reason to fire Daisy as long as she was efficient and kept her personal feelings to herself at work.
Stella finished cleaning up by noon.
The nanny was late. “Sorry, Miss Cicily. I‘m a little late. Where are the two little ones?”
Stella got to know her in Compassvale. She was a nice person. Unfortunately, it was hard to find local domestic helpers in the market, not to mention most of them were foreigners with a language barrier. As a result, Stella couldn‘t leave her children in their care with ease.
It was rare that she‘d meet a fellow countryman who worked the job. Thus, Stella and the nanny got to know each other well. The nanny went on to serve her for three years and got along reasonably well with the family. Stella took her with her wherever she went, just like she would take Joan back then. It was tough to meet the right person. Stella knew this very well.
“It‘s okay. You can rest for a while. I‘ll be going out later. Elias and Emma are still playing in the room. I‘ll hire two early childhood teachers at home soon. It‘ll make things easier.”
“Thank you, Miss Cicily!”
Elias and Emma took a nap and woke up happy to see their familiar nanny. The two little ones adapted to life there in no time.
Seeing how happy they were together put Stella‘s mind at ease. Stella went out shortly after. Her appointment with Bradley was in the afternoon.
After that, in a private room in The Doghouse.
Away from Ahn City for three years, Stella had yet to visit
The Doghouse and was surprised by how big the place had become. It seemed to be more lively and prosperous than before. As soon as she got there, she saw Angelina waving at her. “Stella! Stella! Over here!”
Stella walked over with a smile.
Angelina gave her a big hug right away. “It‘s been so long! I‘ve missed you so much!!!”
Angelina had almost all her weight on her. Stella patted Angelina on the back and looked at Bradley, who was sitting and the circular coach. When their eyes met, they saw the long–lost surprise in each other‘s eyes. Angelina was still very excited about Stella‘s return. “It‘s been three years. You‘re finally back. Will you be leaving after this?”
Stella told her, “I came back to follow up with a project. I‘ll probably stay for a few months. I might even have to stay for a year or two if things don‘t go well. However, I‘ve decided to settle in Compassvale, so my time here is definitely limited.”
Angelina seemed a little disappointed at that, but she quickly gathered herself. “It‘s fine. As long as you have a good life, where you stay makes no difference!”
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1182
“Thanks.”
Stella led her to sit down on the sofa and looked at Bradley. She joked with them, “Thanks . You kept your mouth shut and didn‘t say a thing, knowing I was still alive. I‘m glad Weston didn‘t come to disturb my life.”
“It was such a big deal.. Of course, I‘d keep it a secret!”
“I‘m not someone with a big mouth,” Angelina said.
After she said that, Stella shot her a look.
Angelina felt a little weak and covered her mouth. “Well, about Yvonne... It was just a slip of the tongue...”
The only people who knew she was still alive were Bradley , Yvonne, and Angelina. She only told them after her situation had stabilized.
After all, they were the ones who really cared about her. She did not want to show up one day by surprise suddenly . They might think that she did not take them seriously as friends at all.
Stella‘s character had matured over the years. She could be indifferent to those she hated but cared about the people she loved more than ever.
Bradley did not say anything. He opened a bottle of wine and toasted her. “When you get back, no matter how long you stay, I‘ll make a movie for you. How about that?”
Stella shook her head, smiling. “I don‘t plan to be an actress anymore.” “Did you know? Your role, Sophie, was nominated for Best Supporting Actress of the year. If it wasn‘t for the fact that they couldn‘t award it to the deceased…” Bradley said and came to an abrupt pause as if remembering something terrible. He drank another glass of wine.
“But now that you‘re Cicily, the international piano master, I‘m sure everyone knows your name now.
There‘s no need to go through all this nonsense anymore.”
Stella said, “It‘s not nonsense. I do appreciate your kindness, but I think playing the piano is something I like better.”
“Well, you do what you like. I‘m happy for you.”
The group, busy catching up, didn‘t pay attention to the other side of the private area.
In the corridor, Weston was walking in a group that surrounded him. The people next to Weston handed him cigarettes and flattered him, but he did not respond.
When Weston suddenly caught sight of Stella in the other private room, he gazed down at her body and stopped dead in his tracks.
The people around him thought he was not serving Weston well and stopped. “What‘s wrong? Mr. Ford...”
Weston did not say anything at first. Then, he raised his chin slightly and said suddenly, “We‘ll sit here.”
“But we‘ve already booked a room...”
Weston looked at him indifferently.
The man immediately gave in and tried to flatter Weston. “Yes, sure. We‘ll talk in this room.”
Stella was unaware that Weston was merely a stone‘s throw away. When she spoke, Weston could hear her voice through the wall.
Stella came to meet Bradley as soon as she returned. It seemed they had been in close contact over the years.
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1183
Weston‘s eyes gradually darkened, and his attention drifted from what the person next to him was saying.
He was distracted until Daisy nudged him as a reminder. Weston glanced at the people in the room and pointed out all the mistakes they had just said.
Daisy froze for a moment. She knew Weston was clearly distracted earlier, but she never expected that he‘d still see through their plans at a glance.
Weston was born to be in the business world. His perceptiveness and insight were very rare and one of the best in the world.
The investors sitting next to Weston heard Weston‘s comments and nodded in agreement. “We weren‘t going to work with such a young principal initially, but your name is just too big.”
One of them casually said, “After this project, we plan to involve ourselves in the entertainment industry. It‘s a profitable time. I heard a movie has the potential to earn over a billion or two at the box office.”
“That‘s true, but you‘ll need enough upfront capital to invest,” someone interjected. “Don‘t just look at the movies that make money. There are even more unprofitable movies out there. Some have invested over a billion into it only to lose everything.” “Right? Some low–budget films could stand out and earn a lot... they turn our eyes red with envy. Some spend a lot, only to get nothing in the end.”
When it came to movies, someone said, “Wasn‘t there a big production movie made three years ago? But that one was lucky and became a hit, except for the actress who played Sophie… What was her name?”
“Ella!”
Some of their faces had changed. They warned that guy to stop talking, but the man had been drinking a little and was slow to react. He didn‘t realize the actress Ella was Weston‘s wife, Stella.
The drunken man continued with a smile, “I really liked that actress. She was at a good age. I think she was still very young. At that time, I thought of getting to know her if I got the chance. What was the reason again... Anyway, it didn‘t work out...”
The person beside him hit the man‘s hand twice hard, but he still did not realize what he had said wrong. He continued talking about Stella with great interest until he felt the strange atmosphere inside the private area.
It felt very chilly and cold.
When he looked up and met Weston’s brooding and cold eyes, he had a chill down his spine. He finally turned sober and stuttered, “Mr. Ford ...” The drunken man finally remembered why he had not messed with that little actress in the first place. She was Weston‘s wife!
The drunken man was stunned into silence. Realizing the grave mistake he had just made, he began apologizing profusely. “I am so, so sorry! I drank too much and said the wrong thing. Please accept my apology!”
As he said that, he picked up the glass and downed several rounds of wine. He felt it was not enough and slapped himself twice. “I‘ve said too much!”
Weston seemed a little impatient. He casually rested his hand on the back of the chair and shook his wrist slightly.
The person next to him immediately understood and gestured to the drunken man. “If you know you‘ve said too much, don‘t be an eyesore! You‘ve drunk a lot. You‘re not needed here anymore. Get out!”
That man knew he had said the wrong thing and offended Weston. He got up and bowed to Weston. “I‘m sorry, Mr. Ford. I said the wrong thing. I‘ll never do it again. Please forgive me!”
After that, he did not stay and left the room immediately.
Weston did not show any reaction. His eyes were as cold and sullen as ever.
The people around him feared offending Weston and tried their best to please him. “Mr. Ford, let us know if you need anything. We‘ll do anything within our capabilities!”
The other man next to Weston was going to get right to the point. The drunken man clearly spoke without thinking. Upsetting Weston because of this would only put them at a loss.
The man came up with an idea and suddenly suggested warmly, “We know all the managers here. There are some pretty girls around... Mr. Ford, are you interested?”
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1184
Thrilled by his own idea, the man suggested that he introduce someone to Weston. If this worked, a lot of things would be much easier.
After all, Weston had abstained from sex for three years. A man would feel the need eventually.
The man chanced his arm abroad while observing Weston‘s reaction. Weston‘s face remained cold and unapproachable in the light.
With just one look, he began to feel weak. He thought Weston would reject him.
What Weston said next surprised him. Weston said indifferently, “The one in the next room is good.”
Everyone in the room was startled by Weston‘s reply. Did Weston agree to the suggestion? Did they hear wrongly? Did he not always stay away from women?
The guy who proposed it was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted with a smug look. “We‘ll get on it!”
He knew it. They were all men. How could Weston reject such a suggestion?
He probably hadn‘t encountered a woman he wanted yet. Was he finally going to break the chaste?
“Leave it to us, Mr. Ford. I‘ll ask right away!”
After a few drinks, Stella decided to go to the bathroom. She told Bradley and got up to leave.
Meanwhile, Angelina was still singing happily in the room. Stella looked at her and shook her head with a smile.
The washroom was bright. Stella looked in the mirror and did her makeup. When she returned to the room, she suddenly sensed something was wrong.
Stella‘s smile faded as she saw the scene in the room, as though waiting for someone to explain the situation to her.
There were many strangers in the room, and among them, strange men who were drinking and toasting in a lively manner.
Angelina stopped singing and sat in the same place, dumbfounded.
When Angelina saw Stella coming, she quickly got up and went to her side. “A group of people came for nowhere earlier. They insisted on sharing the same room with us and even got the manager here...”
Bradley was not going to agree at first, but the group mentioned Weston‘s name.
Angelina lowered her voice and whispered in Stella‘s ear, “What should we do? I didn‘t know how Weston suddenly came here...”
Stella looked at the group steadily and suddenly let out a laugh. She soothed Angelina and said, “Don‘t worry. Since they‘re here, let‘s play with them.”
Angelina froze for a moment and began to look at Stella in a different light. She seemed to notice her new character, which was quite different from before. However, she believed it was a good thing. At least Stella could finally protect herself.
Angelina was unaware of Stella‘s status as an internationally known piano virtuoso. She only knew Stella was doing well abroad.
As soon as Stella came over, someone witty smiled and said, “Hey, she‘s here! We‘re so sorry. The manager said our room was too small, so we came to your side. I hope you don‘t mind.”
Stella smiled at him and tapped her finger on her arm.“ Even if I do, you guys are already here, aren‘t you?”
Stella remained smiling, though she didn‘t mince her words. Truly, she wasn‘t trying to give them a hard time.
Somehow, her smile dazzled the man who initiated the conversation.
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1185
Stella had a unique sense of charm in the light. Stella‘s beauty was immense, so breathtaking that nobody could take their eyes off of her.
She had a kind of charm that completely bewitched him. He was staring so hard at her that he almost forgot to reply.
When the guy next to him nudged him in the arm, he finally came back to his senses. “I‘m so sorry... Come over! Miss, please sit over here. I‘ll pour you a glass of wine!”
Bradley shot the guy a cold glare. He got up and walked to Stella, “If you don‘t want to, I‘ll take you out now.”
“No, it‘s fine.” Stella looked him in the eye and said faintly, “Even if we leave now, he‘ll still find ways to come to me later. There‘s no need to keep hiding. I‘ve done nothing wrong, have I?”
Bradley looked at her steadily and did not say anything. At last, he sighed and returned to his seat.
Stella glanced at the current seat and saw only one empty spot next to Weston, seemingly left on purpose. She let out a laugh. “I can‘t sit next to someone I don‘t know. Why don‘t you move me to a seat with someone I know?”
“What do you mean by you don‘t know?”
The man next to Weston immediately said, “You‘ll know him after you get to know each other better. Just sit here and talk to the person next to you more. Fate has gathered us! Speak more and get acquainted!”
Weston looked up at Stella in silence. He watched her approach and sat down next to him, showing no hint of cowardice.
Weston raised an eyebrow and said, “I thought you‘d say no.”
Stella laughed and put her hand on the back of her chair.“ I have no reason to.”
She sounded unbothered and acted as if there was nothing to refuse. In fact, she didn‘t refuse him because she was afraid of getting into a mess.
Her seat would not change her treatment of him.
Weston‘s eyes gradually turned sullen. His hand was already on her waist. “It looks like you‘ve learned a lot abroad. You can handle this kind of occasion with ease now. Why don‘t you teach me about it, hm?”
Stella pulled his hand away impassively. “Excuse me, sir. I may be available, but not every man can meet my requirements.”
“Oh? Is that so? Tell me your requirements then.”
Stella tapped the corner of her mouth. “I don‘t have any requirements. I only care about those who make me happy.”
“How can I make you happy?”
Weston took her waist and pulled her closer. He let her feel the heat of his body and whispered in her ears, “Tell me and see if I can do it.”
The investors were glad to see the two whispering to each other intimately. They winked at each other, thinking that had made the right decision.
Everyone said Weston was deeply in love with his long – dead wife and had never gotten close to any women. Well, what was he doing then?
How could men have no needs? That would only happen when they did not find the woman they liked.
Daisy sat in the corner without much presence. As she listened to the lewd conversations revolving around her, she felt like hiding somewhere dark and blocking the noises out of her world.
Daisy had been working with Weston for a long time. She would drink on his behalf and had done so much for him. Even so, he never looked at her...
Daisy thought Weston agreed to share a room with other patrons because he was finally interested in another woman. She did not expect to see Stella again!
‘Not Stella again...‘ Daisy thought, feeling a little sour and self–deprecating. ‘Yeah. Who else but Stella could make Weston act so strangely?‘
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1186
Daisy kept drinking like she wanted to get herself really drunk.
Ben couldn‘t stand looking at her like that. “You‘re drinking too much. What are you doing to do later? Mr. Ford needs someone to follow up on the details of the contract later,” he asked.
Daisy gave him a hard stare. “Can‘t I drink a bit? I‘m just drinking a little more than I usually do. Was I born to do all the work for him? Can‘t I have a little emotion of my own?"
Ben gaped, dumbfounded by her question. After a short pause, he said incredulously, “But its‘ your job. Mr. Ford is paying you to work. We‘re all paid to work, aren‘t we?”
Daisy spoke and made it sound like Weston was some kind of capitalist who did not pay his employees.
Weston naturally had capitalist roots, but he had always been generous to his employees.
Ford Corporation did not get to its glory through pure exploitation. It became successful thanks to Weston‘s brilliant business acumen and crafty business techniques.
Daisy was stunned by Ben‘s question and didn‘t know what to say. She swallowed them all and continued sipping her wine.
Suddenly, Daisy staggered to her feet and went to Stella with a smile. “May I offer you a toast?” And she meant it. She really wanted to raise a toast to Stella.
Daisy never thought that after all these years, Stella could still grasp Weston‘s heart with little effort.
Seeing Daisy wobbling, Stella told Weston thoughtfully,“. Your secretary seems a little drunk. Why don‘t you tend to her?”
Weston frowned and gave Daisy an unpleasant look. “Get out of my face.” Daisy lowered her eyes at his cold words. She explained,” Sorry, Mr. Ford. I just want to... to be a good friend with Mrs. Ford.”
After a short pause, Daisy chose to call Stella that. Weston‘s reaction was as expected. She was pleased to see Weston ease his frown slightly.
See? She could make him happy, after all.
Stella frowned and looked at Daisy with amusement.“ Excuse me, it looks like you‘re drunk. You’re starting to talk nonsense...”
“I‘m not talking nonsense!”
Daisy suddenly squatted down in front of Stella and looked at her with tears.
She choked, “I don‘t know why you haven‘t contacted Mr. Ford for so many years, but I saw how sad he was for you. He was really broken... Please, just look at him again, okay?” Daisy said it with sincerity and a sore nose. She looked like she was about to cry.
Stella listened to Daisy‘s sad words, feeling troubled.“ How about this? You seem pretty thoughtful about Weston. Do you think he can‘t live without women? If so, why don‘t you sacrifice and become his?” Stella said with a sincere tone and gentle smile, but her words humiliated Daisy. It was a great insult to her.
Daisy clutched the hem of her dress and roared, “Why are you pushing him to another woman? Are you happy with that? He has waited for you for three years! For three whole years!”
Daisy‘s voice trembled as she spoke up for Weston, unable to help herself. “Don‘t you feel a little bit of pain for him? Don‘t you feel any guilt at all?”
Stella rubbed her nose apologetically. “I‘m sorry, no. But if you like him that much, I‘d really like to see you two...”
Before Stella could finish her sentence, she felt a hard and painful grip on her wrist.
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1187
Daisy saw how Weston completely lost control of himself. Unable to hold back, he grabbed Stella’s wrist and pulled her to her feet.
Stella staggered to her feet and followed him, stumbling a few steps.
Bradley was behind Stella, and he wanted to follow her, but Ben immediately grabbed him by the shoulders. He said to him with a cold face, “Sorry. I hope you don’t intervene with Mr. and Mrs. Ford’s private matters.”
Daisy watched the two leaving one after the other and felt a little sore in her eyes. She took a deep breath and held back her tears. Then, she said to the others, “It’s fine. Let’s continue with the details of the contract that didn’t work out earlier.”
Ben was worried about the way Daisy played it cool. “Are you okay? It’s okay if this project doesn’t work out. Mr. Ford will take care of it.”
The project was no longer that important by the look of Weston earlier.
Daisy shook her head. She told Ben, “As his secretary, I have to do everything well for him.”
Weston took Stella to a dark corner and pinned her against the cold wall.
Stella felt pain shooting up her back. Then, a large palm came to her.
Weston looked down and trapped her in his arms. His mesmerizing eyes were as deep as the universe and the stars, trying to suck her in.
Weston had had enough of her hurtful words. He pinched her chin and made her look into his eyes. “How exactly do you want to torture me?”
As Stella met his eyes, her expression gradually changed. She put her hand on her arm and gently pushed him away.
“Shouldn’t I be asking you that?” Stella reminded him, “ You tortured me so much three years ago. Haven’t you had enough? What? Do you want to do something to me again? Are you going to lock me up somewhere or bully me and threaten me with my family?”
Weston suddenly felt weak. He embraced her in a deep hug and said in her ear with a husky voice, “I won’t do any of that to you again.”
After that, he suddenly straightened up and pressed her head hard against his chest. “Do whatever you want to me, but please, never ever leave me again.”
Stella was somewhat surprised to see him in such a vulnerable state. She reached out and nudged his chest,
“If I heard correctly, were you begging me?”
Weston looked at her steadily. “If I beg you, will you stay?”
Stella smiled. “That seems insincere. You won’t beg until I say so.”
Weston said without hesitation, “Please.”
Stella paused slightly and met his burning gaze. She suddenly turned away and reminded him, “You know I’d never agree.”
“Then why did you come back?” Weston asked. Stella could feel his breath on her ear. It was hot enough to make her skin flush with goosebumps.
Stella felt uncomfortable and tried to push him away, only to find Weston holding her tighter in his arms.
Weston held her as if he missed her so much. Holding her was the only way to calm his surging emotions.
Stella sighed again. She looked over his shoulder into the distant air and said softly, “Ah. Mr. Ford, I think you’ve misunderstood. I came back for my boyfriend…”
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1188
Stella’s tone was gentle. She sounded as if she was completely aware of her own hurtful words. Perhaps it was her indifference that cut Weston even deeper.
Weston pulled her away to observe her expression from above. Stella’s usually clear eyes seemed a little obscure.
She had a smile in her eyes, but she was not smiling.
Weston could no longer read her real emotions hidden deep inside. All he could see was just a bubble of illusion.
“Stella…” Weston squeezed her shoulder and tightened his grip slowly. “I know you’re saying that on purpose…
“Mr. Ford, you’re overthinking it.”
The smile on Stella’s face instantly faded. Stella looked at Weston steadily and cut him off, “Why do I have to say that deliberately? I have a boyfriend. Besides, it has been three years. Do you really think I should keep my chastity for you?”
Stella had no idea which word hurt him more.
Weston’s eyes changed at once. He clasped her wrist, You’re my wife. You’re Mrs. Ford. You may have a boyfriend, but it’s best to get rid of him soon.
Stella’s face changed. She shook off his hand with a frown. “Who do you think you are? Aren’t you the one who forced me to divorce you four years ago? Who made me sign the divorce agreement? Why are you pretending as if you love me so much now?”
“I didn’t know how I felt about you then.”
Weston suddenly looked a little sad. He gradually
tightened the force on his hand and explained, “After the divorce, I realized how important you were to me. It was a strange feeling. I couldn’t do anything but imprison you by my side…”
“Enough.” Stella interrupted him impatiently. The last thing she wanted to do was to listen to his explanation.
“You’re just sad for losing what you used to have. If you had sympathy for me, it wouldn’t have come to this…”
“Weston, you’ve hurt me all over before. It’s time for you to learn how to let go.”
Stella looked straight into his eyes. Her pupils seemed darker than her hair color. She said slowly and coldly, From now on, please stop haunting me again. It’s really annoying.”
Meanwhile, Daisy had been drinking herself into a stupor in the private room.
Ben’s earlier words served as a reminder to her. What was the point of her working so hard? She was good at her job but not irreplaceable.
She worked so hard for Weston, but so what?
Weston was able to take things into his hands and complete them within minutes. He would not be moved by her efforts.
If so, why bother working so hard?
Daisy had gone to so much trouble and followed Weston around for three years. However, she was incomparable to the woman’s short presence.
“Miss Daisy, why are you drinking alone here?”
A supplier came over and sat next to her. He rubbed her arm lewdly. “Isn’t it boring to drink alone? Shall I join you?”
Daisy frowned in disgust. “No, thanks.”
After that, she pulled out the jacket that was pressed against him and stumbled to her feet. In actual fact, she was trying to get to Weston.
The man, however, yanked her hand and pulled her back. He made her sit in his arms and stroke her chin with a teasing smile. “You’d do anything to get a deal, wouldn’t you? So why aren’t you willing to drink with me?!”
Daisy’s face immediately turned unpleasant. She had no idea that her determination to do anything for Weston would become a casual and lowly open invitation to just anyone.
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1189
Agitated by his rude advance, Daisy pushed the man away hard.
“Get your filthy hands off me! I’m Weston’s secretary. He hates these dirty things. Do you think he’ll continue to work with you after knowing what you’ve just said to me?”
The man narrowed his eyes. He did not expect Daisy to be so stubborn.
The man next to him whispered something in his ear.” It’s true. If you piss Weston off, it won’t be worth…”
Although Weston did not seem to treat Daisy any differently, she was still his secretary. It would be good if Daisy was willing, but if they forced her against her consent, their actions would likely anger Weston.
It was indeed a bad deal.
The man suddenly changed his tactic. He said to Daisy with a flattering smile, “Sorry if I offended you earlier, Miss Daisy. I really like you so much. You’ve been working hard with Mr. Ford for so long. Being a strong woman, I wonder if you have a boyfriend?”
The person next to the man raised his eyebrows and also leaned closer with some ill intention. “Yeah. He was too excited earlier. It was hard for him to meet his goddess, so he got ahead of himself. Miss, I hope don’t take it to heart.”
The two men looked at each other and quickly shared a tacit understanding. After all, Daisy was with Xavier before. She might not be Weston’s favorite, but she was still a kind of talk as Xavier’s ex-fiancee.
If they could get her, it would be a good deal.
Daisy frowned at the two men’s dramatic attitude change. She knew what was on their minds. Although she knew they were up to something, she still indulged in their flattering.
Perhaps she enjoyed it because she never got it from Weston. With Weston, she was always the one trying to impress him. Even if their flattering was superficial, it softened Daisy’s attitude.
Just as she accepted the man’s glass, a soft bang sounded. The door to the private room was opened, making a soft noise.
Stella came in first. When Daisy saw her, she immediately withdrew her hand with a start.
Daisy saw Weston come in after Stella. Her eyes flashed with a sense of weakness. She stood up immediately and greeted Weston. “Mr. Ford…”
The words came out, but she did not know what to say next.
Weston gave her a cold glance and looked a little impatient. He unbuttoned his sleeve and ordered, “Get out of the way.”
Weston always seemed to think she was in the way.
Daisy looked a little sad, but she obeyed her boss and walked aside. When she saw Weston following Stella closely, a fit of jealousy ripped through her chest. It was unbearable.
Stella did not care about the messy situation behind her. She strode to Bradley and grabbed the car keys.
Stella said to Bradley, “Let’s call it a day. Do you want a ride?”
When they came, Bradley did not seem to be driving.
Bradley stood up and pulled Angelina to her feet. “Let’s go. Time to go home.”
Angelina felt a little uncomfortable and was eager to leave. She nodded and immediately pick up her bag.
Weston’s gaze stayed focused on the woman in front of him. His expression was very heavy.
Stella acted as if she saw nothing. She led her friends away and left with ease. When she walked past him, she did not even bother batting an eye at him.
Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 1190
After that, in the car…
Stella turned on the navigation. She planned to send Angelina home first.
“Where do you live now?” she asked casually.
Angelina gave Stella her address.
Stella looked at Angelina in the rearview mirror and raised her eyebrows. “Looks like someone’s done very well for herself in three years.”
Angelina smiled a little embarrassedly. “It’s all thanks to Bradley’s help.”
Angelina starred in a few more movies later, which did well. She had a good reputation and accumulated some fans. She was quite a famous actress in the circle.
The three friends were laughing and joking inside the car when Bradley suddenly stopped talking after looking in the rearview mirror.
Angelina followed his gaze and also froze for a moment. She said helplessly, “Mr. Ford seems to have been trailing us.”
Stella tapped her fingers on the steering wheel and lifted her eyes slightly as she glanced in the mirror. She saw
Weston’s Cullinan following behind her car at a steady pace.
Stella did not react and kept driving.
Angelina gently reminded her, “Should we stop? Or he might follow you to where you live…”
Stella sighed and gave her a helpless look. “It’s too late. He already knows.”
Angelina was surprised. “So quick? I thought he was following you to find out where you live…”
Bradley was not surprised. He lifted his hand and rubbed his temple. “What are you going to do? You can’t let him haunt you like this.”
Bradley actually had many questions for Stella. Why would she suddenly come back? Stella knew she would be in Weston’s sights as soon as did. Why didn’t she stay abroad instead?
Bradley originally planned to settle in Compassvale this year and wanted to tell Stella his plan. However, it did not seem like the right time to say it.
Stella remained silent. She turned the wheel and drove to another road.
“No, it’s fine. Even if I avoid him, he’ll do things his way and follow me all the time. It’s better to appear in front of him publicly. After all, I can’t stay in hiding forever, right?”
Stella’s smile was very faint. She seemed quieter than before.
Angelina looked at Stella and could not help but marvel at the changes as people age.
Stella seemed very relaxed and had a different kind of charm because of her confidence. It was hard to take her eyes off her.
Angelina was not the only one who thought so. Bradley was obviously attracted to Stella too..
Angelina could tell, but she just kept quiet about it.
When they arrived at Angelina’s place, Stella stopped the car.
Angelina said goodbye to the two and gave Bradley and Stella some space to talk.
Bradley wanted to talk to Stella but lost interest after seeing Weston, who kept following the car. He let out a breath and said in annoyance, “Is he going to follow you all night?”
Stella smiled and shook her head. The tassel earrings on her ears moved like a beauty in the light.
Bradley was enchanted and lost in thought for a moment. It was not long before the car came to a stop.
Stella unlocked the central look and glanced at him. “ We’re here.”
Bradley finally returned to his senses and responded with a hum. He unbuckled his seat belt, ready to get out of the car. Then, he saw the Cullinan behind them suddenly stop.
Bradley suddenly leaned over and hugged Stella. Stella was stunned and subconsciously pushed him away. Then, she heard the man whispering in her ear and said something.
