Chapter 1097: Chapter 1100

“Let them wait.”

Ben nodded. “Okay.”

Just as he finished, Stella came out of the washroom.

Stella saw Ben leave in a hurry and walked to Weston. She asked, “Did something happen at work? Ben looks like he‘s in a hurry.”

Weston caressed her head. “It‘s nothing. It‘s just some work matter. I‘ll deal with it when I have the time.”

He paused slightly and said in her ears, “Also, you should meet with Tina later. She‘ll tell you what to do at the trial.”

Stella‘s eyes darkened. She lowered her head and did not say anything After a short moment, she answered in an inaudible voice, “Okay.”

Weston parted her bangs, revealing the beautiful face underneath. He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. “Everything will be over after this.”

“Stella, listen to me. Don‘t be capricious.”

Stella nodded again and watched him walk away. After he left, she let out a breath.

Stella looked a little dazed and exhausted.

‘I‘m too tired. I‘m really too tired,‘ she thought. As she closed her eyes, the shadows of many people began to appear.

Her unborn child and Roger were no longer alive. There was nothing she could hold on to in this world.

When she first learned about Roger‘s death, she wanted to let Weston feel the same pain she had suffered, but things had changed. ‘I‘m just too tired now. I‘m tired,‘ she thought.

A black car was parked outside the estate. When Stella got in, she saw several cars coming over from the other road.

Ben sat in the driver‘s seat and said to Stella, “Mrs. Ford, come on up. I‘ll take you to a quiet area.”

Stella was startled to see Ben here. “Aren‘t you with Weston?”

Ben said, “Mr. Ford gave his orders. Someone he trusts must accompany Mrs. Ford in his absence.”

Weston had to deal with the matters over there, so he left Ben with Stella.

Stella nodded and said nothing as she got in the car. As the car drove away, she looked at the dozens of black cars outside and asked Ben, “Who are these people?”

Ben paused a little and gave it a thought, wondering if he should tell her the truth.

After a slight hesitation, he answered, “These are the people Warren sent... and the Cohen family.”

Stella understood immediately. She propped her cheek and looked out the window. “Are they still looking for me?”

Ben nodded, “Mrs. Ford, rest assured, they won‘t get what they want with Mr. Ford around.”

Stella did not say anything.

Ben looked at Stella in the rearview mirror and was a little lost for words. When they arrived at the destination, Ben accompanied Stella out of the car.
