Chapter 1169 Weston tried his best to suppress his anger in front of the children.
Unfortunately , Nicole had no skills of reading people‘s expressions, which was why she just sat there hemming and
hawing without making a move. She had not matured or improved much at all in the past three years. She was still
the kind of person who loved to be loud and brash, yet in the end had no courage to bear the consequences of her
actions.
Luckily, Ben could read the room very quickly. He walked up to Nicole and made a gesture with his hand to “invite”
her to leave.
Nicole‘s face was as pale as the belly of a fish now. A hot wave of embarrassment rose up from the sole of her feet.
She turned to Weston with pleading eyes, begging for his mercy.
But the man never even gave her a glance. All along, his gaze had been consistently glued on Stella and Stella
alone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicole suddenly felt a chill in her heart, followed by the rising of an unbearable pain.
It had been three years now. Why was he still pining over that woman?
She suddenly remembered how, three years ago, she had assumed that the reason why he helped her and treated
her so kindly was because he must have taken a fancy to her.
At the time, she was just an impoverished college student. Because of the financial straits her family was in, she
decided to work at Lowe Garden to earn some extra money.
It was Weston who eventually waved all her financial problems away. It was him who pulled her out of that filthy
place so that she could go back to her studies with her dignity intact. But it did not occur to her at all that…
Everything he did was actually for the sake of another woman.
All Weston wanted was for her and Belle to take all the blame for Stella should things turned south for her.
In his eyes, she was no different from women like Belle.
They were all his tools and nothing more.
But by the time Nicole realized all that, she had fallen head over heels for Weston. In fact, the more she learned
about him, the more she became hopelessly obsessed with him.
Belle, on the other hand, seemed to have awakened from her initial stupor. She had come to realize that a man
like
Weston was just out of her reach, and so she took the big sum of money she was offered and disappeared.
But Nicole could not give up just like that.
All she wanted was for him to take a good look at her once, and in the past three years, she had been staying by his
side, walking on eggshells all the time so as to not annoy him. But what did she get in the end for all that?
Just the words “get out“.
How could she not be indignant about it?
As she walked past Weston, her eyes reddened and she told him, “I know I shouldn’t have said what I said, Mr Ford,
but my intentions were pure! All I wanted was to give you a nice birthday party…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWeston gave her a frigid look with eyes as sharp as pointed blades.
Up until now, he had just been ignoring her, but now there was even a trace of disgust in his eyes as he looked at
her.
This almost froze Nicole’s heart into a stone. She could feel an unbearable wave of humiliation surging up her
body.
She knew then that it would be pointless for her to grit her teeth and remain there, and she had even less hope that
Weston would change his mind and have mercy on her.
Before, she had assumed that since Stella Sealey was dead, she could probably take her place in his heart one day
as long as she stayed by his side, but now that Stella somehow came back from the dead... Weston‘s gaze never
once left Stella ever since she showed up.
This filled Nicole with rage, yet she was powerless to do anything about it. She bemoaned how unfair it was that life
depended so much on timing. After all, she never thought for once that she was in any way inferior to Stella Sealey.
But because Stella had come into Weston‘s life before she did, it was her that had always held a special place in his
heart.
This thought distraught her so much that it was almost unbearable.
“Mr Ford,” she continued. “I really was only trying to give you a nice birthday party. I‘m so sorry.”
