Chapter 76
The cigarette went out with a sharp sizzle.
Its light was extinguished in an instant.
Stella thought she must have heard wrongly. The noise bustled around her with no signs of abating
It was almost as if the chaos on the other side of the private room could not touch the space that Weston
and she were in.
There were only the two of them there.
The silence was deafening.
Weston waited for a long while but did not receive any response from Stella.
He turned to look at her. “Come with me. State your price.”
Stella shut her eyes.
She lowered her head, no longer able to hold back her laughter. A cryptic smile appeared on her face,
and she laughed so hard that her shoulders shook. Weston furrowed his brows as he saw her laughing
uncontrollably. He reached out and lifted her chin. “I asked you to state your price.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella collected herself and looked at him expressionlessly. “I want my child back. Can you give that to
me?’
At that moment, she felt a sharp, piercing pain at her chin. Weston tightened his pinch on her chin as his
eyes turned chilly. “Stella Sealey, you were the one who chose to jump down that day.”
He said through gritted teeth.
As much as he had been trying to tolerate everything recently, and his performance had been
impeccable, he lost all reason when Stella said what she said.
“I told you to trust me and that I won’t let you die. Why didn’t you trust me?” Stella looked at him calmly. “I
also told you that they were Guinevere’s people. Why didn’t you trust me?”
Both of them had daggers drawn, their grudges and displeasure towards each other rearing their nasty
heads.
Rage emerged in the depths of Weston’s eyes, clearly angered by Stella’s accusations. “And that’s why
you jumped down right in front of me? Stella Sealey, did you do so to take revenge on me, thinking that I
would regret my decision that way?”
Stella looked right into his eyes with a scornful smile on her face. “You, regret your decision?”
She shook her head, “No, I never thought that you’d regret your decision. Weston Ford, I was the one
who regretted it.”
His pupils widened as his eyes narrowed dangerously, “What do you regret?”
“I regret falling in love with you.”
The words drifted gently from her mouth but landed like a hammer on his heart.
At that moment, a fine crack appeared in the impenetrable fortress that Weston had erected around his
heart. Biting cold wind blew in and filled his heart.
The pain was so intense, it was something he had never felt before.
It felt so foreign that Weston did not know how to respond.
His face turned dark with fury, yet there was nothing he could do to vent his frustration on her.
“Stella Sealey, you…”
He viciously pinched her chin, and his breath blew hot and heavy on her cheeks. He was so angry that
he felt like he could almost eat her up, flesh and bones. “You really have a way, don’t you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe could always succeed in making him lose control of his senses. When it boiled down to it, all his
reason and sanity was like a joke.
She loved him.
Turns out that she loved him. “You love me, is that so?”
He pinched her chin so hard that it stung, making Stella’s eyes well with red, hot tears. Upon his
question, she laughed hysterically and mockingly, “If I didn’t, would I have landed myself in such a
plight?”
She was thankful that Weston paid off Roger’s hospital bills. As such, she never dared to use her own
affections towards him as ransom for his reciprocity. When Guinevere appeared, she chose to let go very
quickly without any complaints. But what she experienced thereafter was definitely not something she
deserved! She lost a child, the only child she could possibly have in her entire life!
She was forced to leave her home, change her name, and start a new life.
Yet, if she had not gotten herself involved with Weston, even if she had to be burdened by the massive
hospital debt, she wouldn’t be in as much pain and sorrow as she was right now. As much as Roger’s
condition could not be resolved overnight, Stella was willing to slog it out and work her days away to pay
off the medical and operation fees.
