Chapter 1068: Chapter 1071

Chapter 1071 The door behind him opened with a creak, and Bryce‘s tiny head popped out. He looked at him and asked, “Did you just argue with Mommy again, Daddy?”

Justin sighed helplessly and pushed his son‘s head back out.

“This is an adult problem,” he scolded his son. “You‘re just a kid. Stay out of it.”

The family ended up deciding not to go to the movies after all.

Under Bryce‘s begrudging gaze, Justin told him to go back to his room and do his homework.

Tina was still angry at Justin, so as soon as she finished her dinner, she quickly went back to work without saying a word to him.

“Wait!” he suddenly stopped her. “Have you ever thought about us getting back together?”.

“What?!” Tina froze. She could hardly believe her own ears.

Justin sighed and took a step towards her. He looked straight into her eyes and earnestly asked her, “Have you ever thought about us getting back together?” “You‘re…” Tina was still in shock. “You‘re joking, right?” “I would never joke about this,” he replied, his eyes still fixed on hers.

The truth was, he could already guess what she was thinking from her reaction. He still would not give up, though.

“Weren‘t you the one who suggested that getting back together would be good for our son?”

At the time when Tina suggested they get back together, Justin was thinking about getting together with Stella, so he refused her offer. Back then, he thought it would be pointless to repeat the same mistake.

But lately, he had been thinking about a lot of things. He realized that there was no longer any need to pursue love and romance at their age. “Bryce said he‘d like us to get back again,” he explained. “He‘s in the middle of his high–school entrance exam right now, so I thought, for his sake perhaps...” “I‘m sorry,”

Tina interrupted him. She looked him in the eyes and took a deep breath. “I don‘t think I can agree...”

Justin fell silent for a long time before he responded,” Why not?”

In fact, he could hazard a guess about what she would say from how she acted, but for some reason, he still would not give up. “Didn‘t you say that if we got back together, it would do our son a lot of good?”

“That is true, but I...” Tina paused, not knowing how to continue.

After hesitating for a while, she looked into his eyes and admitted the truth.

“I have a boyfriend now.”

The appearance of the new eyewitness was a dark foreboding. Even Ben, far from an expert, knew that Stella would more than likely be convicted as the murderer now.

“What should we do now, Mr. Ford? The eyewitness from the mansion is adamant that Mrs. Ford is the perpetrator In fact, after sleuthing around, he even found out that the other side had acquired a lot of evidence to support the eyewitness‘s testimony.

Weston perused the documents sent by the lawyers from the other side and fell silent for a good while.

“How is Guinevere Cohen behaving right now?” he finally asked.

“Her side is not willing to budge at all...”

Weston raised his brows.

“Set up a time for me to meet her,” he instructed.

“Yes, Mr. Ford.”

As he had not set foot in the company these last few days, all the documents had basically been sent to him here. Once he looked through them, he would give them some basic feedback, and that was it. Most of the decision making authority had now been handed over to Xavier Ford Once Ben had left, Stella suddenly walked in and wrapped her arms around Weston‘s waist from behind.

“Did something bad happen?” she asked. “I saw Ben looking really grim just now...”

Weston naturally had no intention of letting her know all the worrisome stuff that had been happening lately. He took her hands, turned around, and pulled her into his arms.

“Don‘t worry about it,” he assured her.
