Chapter 213
“Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Ford is here.”
The woman pulled apart the curtains to the room and yelled. Stella and Weston stood outside, waiting together. Suddenly, a deep voice came from inside. “Let him wait for a bit. I still have some unfinished business.”
The woman put down the curtain and gazed at Weston apologetically. “Mr. Kennedy is still not done yet. You may have to wait for a while.”
She was in charge of welcoming guests there and she knew that they couldn’t make customers like Weston wait for too long. Although Mr. Kennedy was weird, there were some people even he couldn’t afford to offend. Artists like them could have their temper, but at times, in front of money and power, they had to to lower themselves. Weston, on the other hand, was quite easygoing. He shot a glance at Stella and asked, “Do you want to take a walk?”
The woman could tell that Weston had come mainly for Stella and was focussing all his attention on her. “Ms. Steele, you’re interested in my dress, aren’t you? Mr. Kennedy collects different designs of dresses. Do you want to come with me and look?” Instantly, Stella’s interest was piqued, and she nodded. Seeing that she was happy, Weston let her roam around. The woman focused her entire attention on Stella, knowing that if Stella was pleased, Weston wouldn’t bother them. “Are all these instruments made by Mr. Kennedy?”
