Chapter 1420
Stella froze for a moment, seeming to ponder his words.
It was true that she had not thought that she was still treating Weston as a savior.
But she could not deny that her tenderness toward Weston was mostly out of pity.
Other than that, whether it was a few other feelings, she was not sure and did not want to figure it out.
“If you don’t really like, or are willing to be with him, I suggest you stop seeing him for a while. Weston may want to be tied to you, but his heart feels that you will have a better life without him. That’s why he’s so conflicted.”
She nodded and closed the car door.
After she left, Hayden glanced in the direction she had left and went to see Weston at the nursing home.
He was really in a much more unstable state than he had been earlier, especially after Stella had seen him. It was almost impossible for him to stop himself from wanting her.
Hayden was a bit upset to see him in such a state.
Three years ago, he had some feelings for Stella, but it all dissipated with her fake death.
It had been three years, and that feeling had naturally faded quite a bit.
He looked at the man in front of him and said, “In fact, according to her current feelings for you, as long as you are willing to let her come to your side, she will not go.”
Weston sat in the iron cage with one hand on the knee. His eyes were dull, and he said coldly, “In your heart, you know better than anyone that even if she is willing to stay by my side, it’ll be only because she
pities me.”
“What’s wrong with letting her pity you? Didn’t you say it before that you could do anything as long as she was willing to stay by your side?”
“Yes, I am willing to do anything. I am willing to pay any price, but…”
Weston closed his eyes, and his voice sounded extremely sad. “I don’t want to trouble her.”
“Is that so?”
Hayden suddenly walked up to him and looked at his expression, thinking for a moment.
In the car, Stella’s phone suddenly rang. It was Hayden calling her. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
She frowned and answered it. “Dr. Quirk, what else can I do for you?”
Hayden said to her on the other end, “Hold on.”
Then, he took his phone, walked up to Weston, and said, “You just said that you don’t want to force her. So think about it. If you don’t want her by your side because of pity, she might leave you and, perhaps, go out with someone else when she finds someone suitable. Do you not even care about this?”
Stella froze for a while. She understood his intention and remained silent, waiting on the other end of the phone to listen to Weston’s answer.
She heard the sound of chains rattling.
Weston seemed to stand up in the cage.
He gritted his teeth and wheezed. “As long as she’s happy…”
“You mean you’re willing to let go of her as long as she’s happy? Even if she is with another man, you can still bless her?”
When Hayden said that, Stella thought that he was provoking Weston.
What was he trying to do?
Did he want to see Weston go crazy?
Hayden calmly asked him, “You should know in your heart that it’ll be impossible that she remains faithful to only you. She is still so young and has a successful career. She is wealthy, beautiful, and has a high standing in society. Even though she has children, she is still highly sought–after. Though Stella has experienced so much, she still retains her beauty. Let’s not go far; how many people around her are drooling over her? There might be one or two men among them that Stella will be interested in. Maybe she’s not in a hurry to date anyone yet, but one day she’ll meet someone she likes who’s more suitable than you…”
Bang!
