Stella looked at Weston, who was standing in front of her. When she recalled the scene she had just seen, she suddenly felt a little discouraged.
She was thinking of tormenting him for a long time but suddenly found it to be pointless.
She told him, âNicole is not the first person to trouble me, and she will not be the last. Whether it is the past or the future, I have no way to be optimistic about the consequences of you staying by my side. Weston, have you noticed thatâ¦â
Her tone suddenly became calm, unlike her previous attitude of deliberately finding fault with him, but more like telling him very seriously and earnestly. âNothing good happens to me as long as you stay by my side. Your presence has brought me nothing but trouble, nonâstop trouble, and the malice of others.
Iâve had a good time without you for the past three years.â
The way she had treated him so severely earlier, deliberately trying to torment him, didnât cause Weston even a moment of heartache.
He thought that as long as she was still willing to make things difficult for him, that was his chance.
But now that Stella was telling him calmly that his existence would only bring trouble to her and that he was the source of her unhappiness-
This made him unsettled, and he started to question the meaning of his existence.
Seeing the sudden change in his face, Stella continued without any qualms. âHave you ever thought that all your selfârighteous attempts to redeem yourself are a new pain to me?â
âMy feelings for you have worn out long ago. It is you who destroyed it with your own hands, and you want to restore it now. How could such a good thing exist? You have already got so many things in this world, but still want what you canât get. How can there be such a good thing in this worldâ¦â
As she spoke each word, the manâs face turned grey bit by bit until it finally went completely lifeless.
Nicole did not know what they had talked about. She only knew that when Weston came out, he seemed to be drained of energy, like a walking dead.
She knew it. It must be Stella telling him something excessive to him again!
She really could not understand why such a good man had to be let down.
That woman was just doing whatever she wanted on the basis of his fondness!
She simply couldnât stand it anymore. âMr. Fordâ¦â
âGo away.â
She had just gathered the courage to take a step forward when she heard Westonâs cold words.
He was always like this with others, unthinking and cold and somewhat heartless.
After that night, everyone in the crew sensed something was not right.
Weston seemed to have stopped appearing around Stella.
The people he got into the crew also quit. Stella also learned about Westonâs departure from the other member.
She did not react much when Bradley told her about it and simply responded, âMmm.â
So he had left. It had nothing to do with her.
Bradley speculated from her expression. âHe left just like that. Do you really not feel anything in your heart?â
âI do.â
Stella looked at him and smiled. âI felt much of a relief.â
Hearing her say so, Nicole, who had been quiet, commented nonchalantly. âI didnât expect Miss Sealey to be so heartless. Mr. Ford still thought about you when he left. He ordered the kitchen to cook your favorite dishes and bolster your tenâs security, but all his doings only get you to say such a thing! If he heard it, I do not know how disappointedâ¦â
âYou can just tell him.â
