Chapter 1404
The other end of the line had been so quiet that Dr. Hayden Quirk suspected Weston did not hear him just now, so he repeated what he said once more. He was surprised
when he suddenly heard a woman ask him, “What’s wrong with him?”
He hung up the phone immediately, and all Stella could hear was the cold beeping
tone.
The sound of rushing water in the bathroom stopped, and Weston soon returned. He noticed that Stella just stood there next to the nightstand as he wiped his hair dry with a
towel.
“What are you doing just standing there?” he asked.
“Nothing,” replied Stella, trying her best to keep her composure. She then scrutinized the man in front of her with a steady gaze.

Stella’s brows furrowed, but she strangely did not argue with him, nor did she show much reaction to his teasing.
“Did something happen?” Weston asked, his brows knitted as he noticed that she was acting out of sorts.
Stella shook her head and said nothing. She poured herself a cold glass of water and managed to calm down a little after drinking it.
She turned to Weston. She wanted to ask him what had happened to him, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was unable to think of a word to say.
They spent the next few days at the filming set, and Weston behaved like Stella’s secret lover the entire time. They would only meet up covertly, away from everyone’s
prying eyes.
At first, Weston would grumble and complain, but he gradually stopped and accepted how things were.
Stella found that she quite enjoyed how things had been going. She had her children, money, and even a man to sleep with–a man she could just mess around with without
having to take care of him in any way.
As for what she heard Dr. Hayden Quirk say on the phone that day, she felt that as
long as she did not let it bother her and remind herself that it was his problem, not hers, then everything was fine.
That was what she thought then.
After a few days, Stella’s part of the filming was finally done.
Weston needed to go back to his company for some urgent matters, so he had left a few days before Stella did. She was just about to go pick Elias and Emma up from school
when she got a call from Roger.
“Warren Ford has been to the school these past few days,” he told her. “He’s been trying to see Elias and Emma, but I didn’t let him do it so far.”
“When did this happen?” Stella asked, looking visibly angered as soon as she heard what Roger said.
“Just the past few days,” he replied. “I knew you’ve been busy with work, so I didn’t tell you about it.”
“How could you keep such an important thing from me?!” she asked. “You should’ve told me earlier!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“But Warren Ford hadn’t been doing anything at all. He just came here to see the kids. I didn’t think it was necessary to tell you right away. I thought it’d be best to just let you
know once the filming ended…”
But Stella could not possibly stay calm when it came to a matter that concerned her children. She rushed back to Ahn City the same day. Only when she saw Elias and Emma
safe and sound with her own eyes could she finally calm down and stop worrying.
Stella hugged them tightly when she finally saw them at the kindergarten. Just as they were all about to get in the car, Stella noticed a familiar black luxury car approaching
from a distance.
She knew at a glance that the car belonged to the Ford family.
Without hesitation, she picked Elias and Emma up in her arms. She got them into the car before getting in herself and preparing to leave.
But then she heard an old man calling her name behind her.
“Stella! Can we talk just for a minute?”
Warren Ford had just gotten out of his car with the help of his butler by his side. At present, he was so old and frail that he could barely walk on his own.
