Chapter 166
Yvonne thought nothing of Stella’s response, but she did stare at Stella and hesitated whether she should say what was on her mind.
Stella noticed this. Now that she had got her gift, she was sure that Yvonne would have something to say to her. She didn’t want Yvonne to feel awkward, so she took the initiative to bring it up herself.
“If you want to ask me anything,” she started, “then just ask it. I won’t hide anything from
you.”
Seeing that she was so straightforward about it, Yvonne saw no point in beating around the bush.
“So are you and Weston now…” Yvonne studied Stella’s face with seriousness.
Stella said nothing in reply, but merely responded with a smile. It was a joyless smile though and she looked more resigned than happy.
Yvonne immediately understood what Stella was trying to say.
“How dare he!” she snapped.
Stella shook her head repeatedly and grabbed Yvonne’s hand. Her face was turning pale. “Please don’t worry about this, okay?” Stella begged Yvonne. “I don’t want to involve an innocent bystander like you!”
“But how could I not worry?” replied Yvonne. “You’re my friend! How could I just watch him push you around wherever he likes without doing anything?”
