Chapter 396 Weston didn‘t know what to say.
Every single word of Stella‘s pierced deep into his heart. He felt like he couldn‘t breathe.
He could only keep her in his embrace, holding her tightly against his chest so she could hear his heartbeat.
He never bothered explaining anything to anyone. But at this moment, he hoped that Stella could understand him. “Things are not what you think they are...” He finally owned up to his own feelings. “I do have feelings for you. Stella, I thought you knew.”
“I don‘t.”
Stella took a deep breath and calmed herself down. “If this is how you treat someone you have feelings for, I don‘t want it.”
She had said the cruelest of words in the calmest of tones. “I won‘t be so stupid as to fall in love with you a second time.”
Weston avoided her gaze. He simply continued hugging her. After a long while, he asked, “...when did you fall in love with me?” “I don‘t remember. I only remember the moment I stopped loving you,” Stella said.
The wild thunderstorm disrupted many plans.
The crew‘s activities were delayed time and time again and could only properly continue a week later.
Guinevere finally joined the crew under pressure from Bradley. Stella was informed ahead of time and reported to the crew for filming on the same day as Guinevere.
After Weston fully recovered, he returned to the office and didn‘t come back for a few days, apparently busy with a very tricky project. Having the extra time, she took the opportunity to visit Fern University, discussing with Roger about furthering their studies overseas.
