Chapter 996: Chapter 998

In the room, the family doctor treated Weston‘s wound.

Stella stole a few glances and stepped aside. Just as she was about to turn around, Weston grabbed her wrist.

“Where are you going?”

His expression suddenly became extremely cold as he looked at her in silence. She was taken aback, then quickly explained, “I want to go to the balcony...” He still fixated his eyes on her, not letting go of her hand.

Stella pursed her lips. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked in concern, “What‘s wrong? Does any part feel uncomfortable?”

Weston did not say anything.

“Don‘t wander around,” he said after a while.

She understood what he meant and said helplessly, “I am just looking at the balcony. I don‘t want to disrupt your treatment...”

Obviously, Weston was dissatisfied with her explanation. “Was today not enough to teach you a lesson? “You know, you might be watched.”

Weston felt that there was nothing wrong with that.” What‘s wrong with staying right under my nose?”

The doctor felt awkward listening to their conversation.” Mr. Ford, I am going to dress your wound. It might be a little painful.”

“Carry on with your job. Don‘t worry about the rest.” The doctor nodded immediately. “Understood.”

Then, he focussed on treating Weston‘s wound, pretending not to listen to their conversation. Stella waited beside him patiently.

Her hand was clutched by his so she could only sit beside him and watch as his shirt was removed, revealing a large area of his lean body.

She saw the hideous wound on his waist and abdomen and her eyes flickered.

How was it that severe...

In the end, she didn‘t leave and stayed beside him.

Weston grabbed her wrist with one hand, and his eyes fell on her face, not caring the least for the gaping burns on his waist and abdomen.

Stella, however, looked shocked.

“Doctor, is it very serious?” While carefully treating the wound, the doctor said,” Chemical injuries are usually very serious. But Mr. Ford is lucky, the concentration of the acid was low, and his clothing blocked it, so it didn‘t hurt the dermis.”

She let out a sigh of relief. “That‘s good...” He was injured because of her, after all.

If anything serious were to happen to him, she would indeed be very sorry. The doctor took care of it quickly and reminded him to keep the wound dry. Then, he packed up his bag and got ready to leave.

After he left, Weston grabbed Stella‘s wrist and dragged her to his side “Watch out!” she exclaimed and stared at the side where he had been injured. With the wound now wrapped in gauze, she was careful not to put pressure.

“It was difficult to get it bandaged. Don‘t touch it...”

“It‘s just a small injury. Don‘t be so anxious,” Weston replied indifferently.

His words not only made her feel better, but they were actually what he really had in mind.

He did not even want to continue on this. Instead, he looked at her and said, “From now on, you are not allowed to get out of my sight.”

“Haven‘t I already been under your nose all this time?”

Weston pinched her chin and said with a decisive tone,” You know what I mean, Stella. I won‘t allow this to happen again. Wherever you go in the future, you must be accompanied by me. And if I‘m not available, you can‘t go anywhere except where I think it‘s safe.”

This sounded even harsher than when he locked her up inside Stardust Mansion.
