Chapter 198
Weston never expected that a film he had casually picked would have Guinevere in it. He was ready to change the show, but Stella stopped him. “Why do you need to change it?” She grabbed his hand. He lowered his head and stared straight into her eyes. “You don’t want to change it?” She shook her head. “I want to learn and see how the best actress acts.”
She sounded sincere, her voice was devoid of mockery or sarcasm.
However, he grasped the greater significance in her words and lifted her chin. “Do you want to use your acting abilities on me, or do you want to pursue a career in the entertainment industry?”
Hearing this, Stella gave the question some thought. After a while, she smiled and said, “I think both are okay.” Did he really think that she would be honest in front of him?
Weston knew what she meant but wasn’t upset. Instead, he chuckled and said, “You’re bold now.” He swiftly approached her ears and spoke gently.
Her lips curved into a cold smile.
The movie started and she said to him, “Let’s watch it.” He didn’t say a word after that and simply hugged her tightly in his arms. The home theater was dimply lit, with the screen the only source of light.
Because of this, Weston didn’t notice how terrible Stella’s face was looking right now.
After dinner, she had felt a throbbing pain in her stomach, but she didn’t make a sound.
She didn’t even show it while talking to Weston. It wasn’t until they had come to watch the movie that the pain became extremely unbearable. She didn’t make a single sound, though, but tried putting pressure on her tummy, which provided some relief. Ever since losing her child a year ago, her ability to endure pain had gotten stronger. No amount of pain could ever compare to the crushing, utter devastation she had to endure after losing her child.
