Warren showed up at the hospital just as Stella completed a full body checkup.
Although she thought she was fine, Weston was still skittish.
The wounds inflicted on her body were minor, yet Weston had her do all kinds of tests.
âWeston is talking to the doctor, so I came over to check on you first.â
Warren came in with his walking stick, followed by the butler. âAre you feeling better?â
Stella had only just woken up and sat up. âGood day to you, Grandpa.â
âYou donât have to be so proper. Lie down and rest.â
Only after he said, that did she lie back down.
He looked at her and sighed softly, a little heartbroken.â You have suffered, child.â
Stella shook her head.
âLuckily, there is no major harm down.â Warren sighed and said, âOtherwise, Weston would have died of anxiety.â
She pursed her lips and smiled, not saying anything.
He looked at her, and his face changed slightly. âNow that Weston is not here, I shall be frank with you.â
She nodded. âPlease do.â
He tapped his finger on his walking stick and said, âI have no idea what happened, but Weston called the Cohens last night demanding an explanationâ¦â
âThe Cohens said that he took Guinevere away, and now she is still missing. I am having a headache now.â
Her gaze changed, but she did not make a sound.
Warren then said, âYou are very close to Weston. You should know where he took her, right?â
Her lips twitched. âI have been at the hospital since last night and havenât been anywhere else. So how would I know these things?â
Warren was in no hurry. He paused for a moment and then smiled. âI guess so. Youâre a sensible person. You shouldnât ask that of Weston.â
Stellaâs face slowly turned expressionless.
Her already pale face lacked even the slightest glow.
After a while, she said, âHe wouldnât have taken Guinevere for no reason. Those people who kidnapped me yesterday were Guinevereâs doing.â
Warren was a bit stunned. âReally?â
He raised his brows. âAs far as I know, that girl is very arrogant. She wouldnât be bothered to do such a thing.â
He sighed rather regretfully. âIt seems that love keeps making people blind, so it is understandable why Weston must ask them to give you an explanation despite the faces of the two familiesâ¦â
She knitted her brows and looked at him steadily. âCan you just say whatever you want to say directly?â
He laughed. âI just want to ask you if you still want to leave.â
She looked at him in confusion. âWhy are you asking this?â
âYou were still eager to leave Weston earlier. But this time, he saved your life. I think you might change your mind and want to stay by his side.â
She understood it right away. âSo you are worried that I wonât be leaving him anymore?â
He raised his eyebrows. âI canât really risk my grandsonâs future. After all, from how youâre progressing, if you really want to stay with him, you may become part of our family.â
She laughed sarcastically.She and Weston had already had a marriage long ago.But she had never met his family during that marriage.
