Mr. Ford Is Jealous novel Chapter 498

Chapter 498 Weston remained silent. 

He stared at her for a long while before gathering her in his arms. He planted a kiss on her forehead and said, “I know that you’re thinking about our one-year timeline. Stella, please play your part as best you can. Don’t let me catch you trying to leave me.” Stella’s eyelashes trembled as she shut her eyes. She leaned in his embrace and heard his heartbeat through his chest. 

After a long while, she said, “All right.” 

Weston lifted her chin and looked into her eyes, “Be more professional in your acting. Do you know what a woman who wants to stay with me looks like?” 

“How does she look like?” 

“She will want to spend my money.” Weston fished out a card and placed it in her hand. Stella refused to take it, but Weston pushed it into her palm and closed her fingers over it. “Just use this if you want to buy anything.” Stella stared at the black card in her palm, but she declined to nod in acknowledgment. 

Weston said empathically, “I don’t want you splitting things so clearly between us.” A storm raged in Stella’s heart. She did not want money to be involved in her relationship with Weston. 

Their marriage in the past arose precisely because she needed his help to settle Roger’s medical fees. That was the reason she always felt inferior before him and in a position that demanded her to look up to him. 

Although they were husband and wife, she could only hide her admiration for him in her heart, quietly expressing her love for him over the years each day, never proclaiming it out loud, and neither seeking reciprocity. Having gotten used to giving and not receiving, she was uncustomed to feeling indebted to him. 

Stella held the black card in her hand. 

After a long while, she finally nodded.
