Chapter 1287

They had assumed that she would have recovered after a short while, but the way things were now, there was no

other choice but to look for another person to take care of her.

But Roger would never agree to this.

“I can take care of you myself,” he said. “I’ve been taking care of you these past few months anyway. There’s no

need to look for someone else!”

The truth was, Roger simply couldn’t trust anyone else.

“No,” Stella argued, “your grandfather suddenly wants you to go home. Something must’ve happened there. Don’t

worry. I’ll take good care of myself.”

These days, Stella and Roger had returned to treating each other like brother and sister. There was a tacit

agreement between them to never again bring up Roger’s incestuous feelings.

“He knows that you’re here to learn and improve yourself,” continued Stella, her tone becoming stern and serious

wouldn’t have asked you to go back. Listen to him.

reason. He’s always done everything for your own good.”

Roger fell silent for a long time.

If it had not been for Marcus Garcia, there was no way te would ever get to where he was, much less help Stella get

away from Weston Ford’s iron grip back then.

“Even so, I must find someone I can trust to be with you.

I wouldn’t be able to leave you here alone otherwise.”

“Don’t worry,” Stella chuckled. “I’ve found the perfect

person.”

“Who is it?”

Joan could not keep herself from tearing up when she finally saw Stella again.

“Madam…”

She simply could not believe they would ever meet again

after all these years.

Three years had passed, but Joan did not look like she had changed much.

“Thank you for helping me three years ago,” Stella said. with a smile. “Without you, I’d never be able to escape

Weston Ford.”

This matter still filled Joan with guilt and regret.

“I just couldn’t stand aside without doing anything back then,” she told Stella. “I was afraid that you might end up

totally consumed by depression, and even more terrified that you might commit suicide, so I decided to betray Mr.

Ford in the end…”

Although Stella was grateful to her, the truth was Joan had always felt guilty for what she did to Weston Ford. After

all, he was the one who paid her salary. That was why she was too ashamed to remain working for him and had to

rush back to her hometown. No matter how much

money he offered to pay her, she just could not stay in Stardust Mansion anymore because she felt that she had

wronged him.

The plan to whisk Stella away from Weston Ford had

certainly been cooked up by the Garcia family, but

without Joan’s help as an insider, Weston would never let his guard down enough to make it possible for Stella to

slip through his fingers right from under his nose.

Joan had hesitated for a long time before she made that

decision.

She had always believed that they would never meet each other again, but to her surprise, Stella actually returned

to Ahn City three years later.

“Madam,” she asked her cautiously, “did you come back

to set things straight with Mr. Frod?”

Considering Weston Ford’s powerful status, it was impossible that he didn’t hear about Stella’s return.

Stella nodded.

“He already knows…”

She noticed that Joan looked like she was still unaware of what had happened recently, so she briefly told her the

whole story.

Joan’s whole body was in shock after hearing what Stella

told her.

“Are you saying that Mr. Ford’s life might be in danger?”

“Yes,” replied Stella with an expressionless face, resting her arms on the table. “So you don’t have to worry that

he’ll cause you trouble now.”

Joan needed a long time to digest all the new information

she had just received. Then she finally let out a heavy sigh and asked, “So you can’t see now, Madam?”

She had noticed the first moment she got here that there was something wrong with Stella’s eyes. They looked as if

they were glazed over and unable to focus.
