Chapter 1037 âOf course. Youâve agreed to compromise on the shares. How can I not agree?â
Xavier held up his hands. âJust tell me. What do you need from me?â
Westonâs eyes deepened. He wanted to light a cigarette, but he stopped when he thought of something . After a long time, he said, âAnyone who might influence the final verdict must be dealt with.â
Xavier stood up sharply. He thought he had misheard him. After a long moment, he raised his voice at the absurdity. âAre you crazy?!â
Was Weston going to make an enemy of everyone?
After that, inside the car.
Daisy saw Xavierâs silence. She wanted to speak to him and ask him a few questions, but she eventually gave up.
The car drove on for half an hour. Xavier looked outside. âWeâre almost at your house. I wonât go in tod ay.â
Daisy nodded. When the car stopped, she unbuckled her seat belt and was ready to go out when she paused and asked, âWhat did you⦠What did you say to Mr. Ford today?â
Xavier did not answer her right away. He put his hand on the steering wheel and tapped his fingers. Th en, he looked at her differently.
âDonât you think youâre overly concerned about Westonâs affairs ?â
Daisyâs eyes changed a little and reverted back to normal. âWhy are you being paranoid again? Such a
big incident has taken place. Itâs only normal that I am curiousâ¦â
âItâs normal,â Xavier cut her off with a cold voice. He sounded a little impatient.
âItâs also normal for a couple to be together and be apart. Daisy , this is my last warning. If I catch you thinking about another man again, thereâs no need for us to continue.â
After that, he directly opened the car door and got out.
Daisy paled instantly.
Night soon fell.
Joan kept calling Weston, but no one answered the call. She was anxious but still worried about Stella.
Weston was not ignoring the call on purpose . He just could not get away from the situation.
Meanwhile, in front of the funeral hall, the Cohen family was wiping their tears. Guinevere and Mrs. Co hen hugged each other and wept.
Chris glanced in Guinevereâs direction occasionally , but he could only join Wendy in calming a completely downtrodd en Mr. Cohen.
When Guinevereâs parents heard about the news , they fainted . When they woke up, it was already Za charyâs funeral.
They were not in the right state of mind to participate in the cremation process, so they showed up at th e wake for a little while and soon went back to rest.
At their age, they were unable to take such heartâwrenching motions.
At the last minute , Weston stood in front of the funeral hall and looked at Zacharyâs tomb. He finally sho âRest in peace.â Weston placed a daisy in front of the tomb with dark and sullen eyes.
Guinevere stood behind him and clasped her hands together. She called his name.
âWestonâ¦â
Weston did not respond and kept his back turned away from her.
Guinevere took a deep breath. She took a step forward and hugged his waist. âI feel horrible⦠Can I hug you?â
Weston frowned and wanted to push her away reflexively.
Guinevere sensed his intention, so she hugged him tighter. She let out a sad whimper. âPlease ⦠At a time like this ⦠Please just hold me⦠Please ⦠Let me hold youâ¦â
She squeezed her sobs out of her throat with a depressed and suppressed cry of grief. Weston lifted his
