Nicole obviously would not understand her and would only question her. âWhatever. The past is in the past. You will regret treating Mr. Ford like that!â
âIs that so?â
Stella laughed, not taking her words seriously. âIf thatâs all you came here to say, then please go back.â
Nicole refused to leave. âDo you know that he has wounds all over his hands in order to cook for you?
And yet you call him over to do the laundry. His wounds are soaked white. Donât you have any feelings?
You are really a cold- blooded woman!â
After saying that, she suddenly saw a completely untouched meal on a table inside the tent. She recognized that they were Westonâs cooking at first glance. âHe has done so much for you, and you refuse to even take a bite. How can you be so cruel?â
âI just donât eat his food. Is that considered cruel?â
Stella found her incredibly funny, so she stood up and sauntered to her.
The red wine in the glass swirl with her movement, making her look enchanting.
âI once had a marriage. I have prepared meals waiting for a man to,return for countless days and nights, but he only returned occasionally. He did not return most of the time, to which I would be looking at the table of cold food. I do not know how much disappointment I experienced⦠You are heartbroken for him just because of this once. Is it not a little too exaggerated?â
Nicole paled, knowing what she was implying.
But she still felt pitiful for him. As for what sacrifices Stela had made, they were not within her consideration.
âIf you donât like him this much, go and tell him properly. I really cannot stand watching anymore! He treats you so well, yet you are unmoved!â
âSure. Since you asked for it, Iâll talk to Weston and tell him not to bother me anymore. How does that sound?â
Nicole was at a complete loss for words at Stellaâs quick decision.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard an icy voice from behind her. âI told you. Donât meddle with my business.â
Nicole felt a chill going down her spine immediately. She dared not turn around.
Weston walked up to Stella. His tone softened a lot. âI apologize for the interference. Iâll get rid of her right away.â
Nicoleâs heart went completely cold, and she took a step back when she saw that his first reaction was actually telling Stella not to be angry. âMr. Ford, she is clearly playing with you. Why are youâ¦â
âThis is my business. It has nothing to do with you. âf you donât know what it means to mind your own business, I will show you what those words mean.â
He rarely said so much to her and was ignoring her most of the time.
Nicole only felt a boneâchilling coldness that spread from the soles of her feet to her limbs. Even her veins froze.
With her eyes red, she turned her head and ran out.
Stella looked at her back with boredom, thinking she was too weak to fight, and said to Weston, âWhy donât you follow along and chase after her?â
Weston frowned immediately and looked at her. His tone was a little displeased. âDonât make this kind of joke.â
He could see that Stella did not care much. She did not show any hint of jealousy.
His face turned gloomy, but still, he said to her, âDonât worry. I wonât let her bother you again.â
He did not have the intention to blame her even at this point.
Sadly, however, she could no longer feel jealous because of him.
Weston sadly found that he could no longer stir Stellaâs emotions, save for that of annoyance.
