Chapter 1306: Chapter 1309

Ben stopped talking. Instead, he went to Weston and whispered something to him.

Stella looked at Weston without saying a word the whole time. After Ben went out, Stella asked him, “Ben said you’re hurt. Is it true?”

Weston looked at her expressionless. “Don’t listen to him. He likes to exaggerate.‘ ”

“I’m just asking. Are you hurt?”

“Yes.”

“Did you get hurt in the snow mountains?”

Weston hesitated a little before nodding in reply.

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“There was no need, “Weston told her. “I’m here alive and well now…”

“Do you think I’m concerned about you?” Stella was suddenly agitated and interrupted him.

Stella had just woken up and finally regained her vision, but he had to put her through such intense emotions.

Weston tried to calm her. “Don’t be angry. It’s my fault…”

“I’m not asking you to admit you’re wrong. I just-”

Stella was suddenly lost for words. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Weston noticed her strange behavior and rushed to ring the nurse’s bell at the bedside.

Soon, the doctor came in and examined Stella again. The doctor said to Weston, “Don’t worry. She’s fine. She probably got a little emotional because she can finally see again.”

Weston was relieved to hear that.

After that, the two were alone in the ward again. Weston did not say anything for a long time, accompanying her in silence.

Stella gradually calmed down and kept staring elsewhere instead. After a long silence, she rubbed her temple, feeling a little troubled. “Can I see your wound?”

Weston did not move and remained silent, so Stella pursed her lips and reached out to grab his shirt without saying a word.

Weston grabbed her wrist swiftly. “What are you doing?”

“I want to see your wound,” Stella said. “After all, you were trying to save me.”

“I don’t need your guilt or sympathy.”

“What about you? Did you consider my feelings while pestering me? Why should I consider yours?!”

With that, Stella tried to rip the buttons straight off his shirt but lacked the strength. She tugged twice, but nothing happened.

Weston let out a sigh. He had no choice but to take her hands away and unbutton his shirt himself.

Soon, Weston’s bandaged chest came into Stella’s sight.

He showed her the blood–stained area and asked her, Satisfied?”

“Why are you hurt so bad?!”

Stella’s eyes darkened for a moment. She wondered why she hadn’t noticed it at all.

Weston had a massive gash that had almost pierced his heart. This would explain the rumor going on in the outside world. Everyone said Weston was in a coma.

Stella thought Weston was probably fine because he woke up. She did not expect this.

“How did you manage the pain?”

Weston panicked a little at her slightly red eyes. He hurriedly hugged her. “It doesn’t hurt. Really. It doesn’t hurt at all.”

He took her hand and made her hug his waist. “If you kiss it, it won’t hurt anymore.”
