Chapter 1296
Stella was taken aback a little, not knowing what to say for a moment.
After a while, the man picked her up again and headed outside.
[What else do you want to do? Want to go out for a stroll in the park?]
She shook her head. “No. I want to listen to a podcast and go to bed later.”
He knew she was unwilling to be with him.
So he nodded. (Okay. I will stay here. Call me if you need me.]
“Aren’t you studying at university now? Don’t you have anything else to do?” She frowned.
[Nothing is more important than you.]
She was speechless.

She was relieved to hear that Stella had had her meal. “
It’s a relief that I did not starve you, Mrs. Ford.”
Stella wanted to correct the way she addressed her, but
the man stood up and said, [Did you get all the ingredients?]
“Yes.”
Joan said, “They are all Mrs. Ford’s favorite. I traveled miles to the suburb to get this fresh sea bass.”
The man nodded and took the live fish to the kitchen to clean them.
Stella always had a strange feeling when listening to the conversation between the two.
Were this mother and son always so polite when they talked to each other?
Before she could think deeply about the matter, Joan went off to do her own work.
For the next few days, the two got along quite well.
The man did not cross the line much, but he was always going back and forth the line, tempting her.
Stella asked, “Have you had a lot of girlfriends? Why are you so comfortable with flirting?”
The man was startled and then said, [I had one before.]
“One?”
She pondered. “You are only twenty now. One is normal, not too many and not too few.”
She asked again, “Then why did you break up with her?”
[I did not cherish her properly.]
She laughed at his answer. “You are rather conscious of yourself.”
She had seen too many men blaming their exes once they broke up. The sweet love no longer existed, with only
ugly faces left when they blamed each other.
He was rather honest.
[It was indeed my fault.]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe man continued, [She was very nice and loved me very much. I did not realize my own feelings at that time, so I
thought that she was not important. By the time she left, only then I realized that I simply could not live without
her.]
“Why don’t you go and get her back then?”
[Because I don’t want to trouble her again, so I just watch her from afar.]
She nodded and asked him indifferently, “Since that’s the case, why did you come and mess with me?”
He sounded to be obsessed with his ex–girlfriend, yet he still said he wanted to pursue her and fell in love with her
at first sight.
This would suggest that his deep love could also be an
act, just a means to attract the next woman.
As expected, the man did not speak anymore.
Stella was too lazy to point that out and lost interest. So she stood up and said, “I want to go to the hospital.”
[I will come with you.]
“Suit yourself.”
After seeing through his mind, Stella’s attitude towards
him became a lot more indifferent.
