Guinevere was stunned. That was not what she wanted. Guinevere just wanted to ruinStella's image and let people think of her as a mean stepmother.She did not really want to spend time with Zachary.
"Grandpaâ
"It's settled then." Warren waved his hand and interrupted, âYou seem eerily nervous about Zack.Indeed, you two haven't been together for a long time.I never thought about of your feelings for him.You now have the opportunity to get along with him.Today, I shall leave Zack in your care.I won't allow anyone to disturb your quality time with your child.â .
Guinevereâs eyes flickered, and she glanced at Weston.She wanted to take care of Zachary with Weston, not alone, not to mention she didn't want Zachary to get along with Stella.
In fact, she had little patience for the child.However, since Warren had said so, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.
âThanks, Grandpa." Guinevere squatted down and said to Zachary with a big smile, âCome to Mommy!â
Zachary immediately hid behind Stella and shook his head repeatedly.
A cold glint flashed in Guinevereâs eyes.She intensified her voice.
âIâm Mommy.Come to me! Why aren't you listening?"https://novelebook.com/home1 Stella had to pull Zachary out and rub his little face.
âGo on.I'll take you with me next time." Stella and Zachary had just come from the garden in the backyard.
Zachary was still thinking about the macarons.He had only tried a little when Guinevere took it away from him.
Zachary looked unhappy and disappointed.
Stella watched as Guinevere took him away.She waved at him.
"Bye.â
Guinevere glanced back at her with a cool look, but she could not make it too obvious in public.
As Zachary's biological mother, her repulsion to Stella was unsurprising .
However, being too hostile would be uncharacteristic of her.
Hence, Guinevere steadied herself, took Zachary's hand, and walked away.
The farce was finally over.
Stella breathed out a sigh of relief.
When she turned around, she met Westonâs deep eyes.
Weston did not say anything.
Instead, he fixed his gaze on her and tucked her hair behind her ear.
"I thought you said you didn't like children? You both seem to be getting along.â Stella tugged the corners of her mouth.
âHow can you call that getting along well? His real mother took him away with such vengeance.â
âSheâs just overreacting and making a fuss out of it.â Weston comforted her,âMom usually gives him some snacks too, so don't worry about it."
Stella shook her head.
"Guinevere doesn't want to see Zachary on good terms with me.No matter what I do, she'll find an excuse to pick on me.â Weston knew that all too well.
