The employee turned to look at Stella. Stella didn’t want to make things difficult for her and nodded. “It’s fine. Please, carry on.” With that, the staff member turned to leave. Chris walked towards Stella and sat down before her. “I really didn’t expect that he’d treat you like some precious treasure.” “It’s just coming out for an afternoon of fun. Is that considered as treating me like precious treasure?” Stella looked expressionlessly at him. The two had parted unceremoniously at Ford Corporation’s building the last time, and Chris even attacked Weston. Yet, now that they’d met again, Chris acted as if nothing had happened. It was evident that this man had outstanding mental tenacity. Chris smiled and said nothing as he poured a glass of wine for himself. He took two sips and asked, “Where is Weston?” “He went out for some fresh air.” “Aren’t you worried? He’s been out for so long.” Stella shook her head. “He’s a full-grown adult. What do I have to be worried

Chris was a relatively good fighter, and he managed to bring the man down after a while. Recalling that there was a woman standing behind him, he looked at Daisy with annoyance. “Make yourself clear. Are you breaking up with this man today?” He never knew that Daisy was in such a terrible relationship. Why was she willing to be with someone so unsavory, someone who had, in turn, rejected him so many times?” How was he inferior to this man? He felt a deep wave of disappointment engulf him. Although he originally didn’t harbor deep feelings for this woman, he now felt utterly wronged and aggrieved. “If you continue missing him and going back to him, I’ll never interfere in your affairs from now on. If you intend to make a clean break, I’ll make sure you keep your word and won’t let this go until it happens!” He could tell that Daisy really wanted to break things off with this man, just that she lacked the resolve to. He had never seen a woman like that in his life. The

Although he was competing against Weston for the family inheritance, he did not forget his duty as an uncle in a time like this, even when it came at the expense of family ties. At the very least, he couldn’t allow anyone to get the opportunity to blame him because of such a stupid reason. Stella snapped back to attention and yelled, “That’s enough!” “Weston. You’ll kill him if you go on like this…” she pleaded. Although Weston slowed down in his movements, he did not stop completely—his eyes were bloodshot and filled with fearsome rage.Stella took a deep breath and said with her voice quivering, “Don’t be like this. I’m afraid he’ll…” Her words finally made Weston slowly release his hands. He shook out his wrists and spoke coldly through gritted teeth at the man who was half-dead, “You really should pray that she is fine. Otherwise, killing you a hundred times over today wouldn’t be enough to make up for it.” The man’s face was covered with blood, and he could no longer

Finding her reaction hilarious, Weston suddenly leaned in closer to her, kissing her on the nose. “Which part of your body have I not seen? Why are you still so shy?” Stella pushed him away. “No need. I can do it myself.” Weston’s brows furrowed as he looked at her. He had thought that she was angry because he refused to listen to her and insisted on carrying her all the way to the car. Now that he thought about it, it seems like there was another reason for her anger. Weston said in a teasing voice, “Seems like I thought wrong. Are you jealous?” He had stood up for Daisy, reacting to the displeasure of hearing Stella talk about her first love. Who asked her to gush about how heroic and valiant her first crush was? He wanted to let her witness how anyone can do something so trivial, and, therefore, it was not worthy for her to remember for so many years. Who knew that she would be jealous over something so trivial? “Jealous?” Stella’s eyes widened in disbelief as she lo

“Which him?” Chris feigned ignorance. “Well…” Daisy couldn’t even bear to say his name. Chris cut her off and said with a half-smile, “Oh, I remember it now. Your ex-fiancé.” He turned towards Weston, “Weston, what do you think?” “None of my business,” Weston rubbed in between his brows. He paused for a moment before going on, “But since he hurt my girl, I can’t let him off so easily.” Daisy’s face fell ever so subtly. Indeed, the reason he even interfered in this entire issue was because of Ella, not her. Chris looked at her; his interest piqued. “Seems like you really want Weston to stand up for you?” “Of course not!” Daisy denied it vehemently. “How would I dare to bother Mr. Ford…” “Do you not dare and not want for that to happen?” Daisy did not know why Chris was bent on embarrassing her in front of Weston. Her eyes turned red as she glanced at him, her fists clenched tight. Ever since Chris witnessed that scene, the cool and calm image she erected before h
