Chapter 50 .
She had been putting up a strong front during this entire period, pretending that nothing was wrong between the two. But she clearly knew that there existed a huge gap between Weston and herself in her heart.
Ella’s appearance today made alarm bells ring out loud and threatened her like never before. Even though Ella did not do anything except make an appearance, it sent Guinevere’s life and her relationship with Weston into complete upheaval.
She hugged him tighter. “Do you still blame me?”
Weston stayed still and let her continue hugging him. He did not respond but did not return the hug either. “Why would I blame you? You did nothing wrong.”
Guinevere slowly tightened her hold around his waist as her heart turned cold. She refused to let go as she gritted her teeth and said, “About Stella Sealey… you still blame me for it, don’t
you?”
For a brief moment, Weston stiffened up, but he quickly spun around and looked down at the woman before him, “You’re a victim yourself in that incident. Why would I blame you?” His voice was low, and it was hard to tell if he meant anything else. Guinevere knew that he had no hidden meaning, but an inexplicable sense of guilt somehow arose in her heart. A chill ran from the bottom of her feet to the top of her head, and she couldn’t care less about anything else, “Do you still find it hard to forget about Stella Sealey? Do you still have feelings for her? She’s dead… does that make you feel guilty?” This was the first time she had spoken so blatantly about that woman after that incident happened.
Guinevere looked anxiously at the man before her, and saw his brows knit together.
His eyes remained unfathomably deep and cold. “Back then, I had to choose one of the two of you. I chose you. Gwen, what else do you want?”
His eyes were cold, absent of any other emotions. His eyes were also piercing, as if trying to see through Guinevere. All of a sudden, Guinevere released her hands and stepped back. “…” She wanted to speak, but her throat felt constricted, and she could not utter a word.
