Chapter 1092 Weston drove home at breakneck speed. The black Maybach raced to its top speed on the highway.
After what Stella said, Weston hung up the phone and headed straight for the mansion. The one sentence she said hit him hard.
Weston rested his wrist on the steering wheel as a hint of selfâdeprecating emotion flashed in his eyes.
Since when could Stella easily affect his emotions?
Ben called on the phone. âMr. Ford, the foreign business attaches are waiting for you in the meeting room.â
âPush it back. Weâll start by showing them a preview of the plan.â
âWhen will you officially meet them?â
Weston glanced at the time. âTomorrow afternoon.â
Benâs heart thumped. It seems Stella will suffer today, he thought.
âOkay, Mr. Ford.â
Ben was about to go out after ending the call when he saw Daisy glancing around in the hallway.
As Ben came out, Daisy hesitated before she went up to him. She asked, âMr. Sullivan, does Mr. Ford have something urgent?â
She had never seen Weston so anxious before, especially in the company. He was always at ease and rarely lost his cool like earlier.
Ben sighed a little and said nothing about Westonâs matter. He only told Daisy about Westonâs orders.
Daisy noted it down. She could not help but ask him, âDid Mr. Ford leave to meet Ms. Cohen... or Ms.
Sealey?â
Ben furrowed his brow a little, thinking Daisyâs question sounded inappropriate. She had overstepped the bounds, so he politely reminded her, âHowâs your relationship with... How are you with Mr. Xavier lately?â
Daisy froze a little. She did not expect Ben to ask that. Ben had always been slow on such matters. He was good at his job and social networking, but he was almost clueless regarding relationships.
âMr. Sullivan, I didnât mean anything. Iâm just...â Daisy paused a little. Then, she smiled apologetically.
âItâs just the rumors I heard in the past two days... I thought it would do some damage to Mr. Fordâs image, so I asked you the question. Maybe I sounded a little unprofessional. Sorry.â Daisyâs apology was sincere, and Ben believed her. He nodded. âIt makes sense that you are worried. Mr. Ford should be able to handle it.â
âThatâs great,â Daisy exhaled and said. âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâll go back to work?â
âGo ahead.â
As soon as Daisy turned around, her expression changed. After that, she returned to her workstation without any expression on her face. Then, her colleague came over and said, âMs. Daisy, a woman was looking for you. She claims to be your younger sister!â
Daisy rubbed her brow and stood up. âI see. Where is she now?â
âThe receptionist told her to wait for you in the lobby.â
Daisy responded with a hum and hurried there. She could see Nicole sitting in the lobby with a childishâ
looking shoulder bag from a distance. Nicole looked nervous and insignificant but straightened her back, not wanting to be looked down upon.
A hint of annoyance flashed in Daisyâs eyes. She strode up to her and lowered her voice as she said in Nicoleâs ear,â This isnât the right place to talk. Come with me.â
Nicole stood. Before she could say anything , Daisy had turned to leave.
When Nicole saw Daisyâs determined back, her eyes darkened a little. She followed her in stride anyway.
Then, the two walked into a storeroom.
Daisy glanced out and closed the door. âSay it. What do you want?â
