Chapter 726 Downstairs.
As Stella was walking down the stairs, she heard the housekeeper reporting to Wendy.
“After Mr. Ford left last night, he never returned…”
Wendy sat before the dining table, playing with Zack in her arms. She said without a hitch in her expression, “Did he call this morning?”
“Yes, he did…”
The housekeeper shook her head with a distressed face.” He did call, but he said…”
“What did he say?”
“He said he won’t be coming back to eat or to stay the night during this period…”
Wendy sneered. “Whatever.”
He was willing to stay away from home for Guinevere Cohen,
The housekeeper did not want to make any unnecessary comments about their family matters. She simply stood silently at a side.
Warren was also at the dining table, a rare occurrence for
him, and he was sipping on his tea, “It’s probably because I let Ella stay at the Ford Manion last night, and he feels upset with the both of us.”
Despite her anger, Wendy remained respectful in face of her own father-in-law. “Dad, don’t worry. He’s probably only angry with me.” “It has nothing to do with you.” Warren smiled. “Both of you have always been close. He’s just in a little fit now. Just say something nice to appease him when he’s back.”
Wendy nodded. “I know.”
Warren took another sip of his tea and asked without lifting his head, “What are you doing still standing there? Is the view from the stairs very nice? Come down and have breakfast.”
Wendy looked in Stella’s direction, who caught her gaze and greeted, “Good morning.” She turned to Warren, greeting him as well. “Hello, Mr. Ford.”
Warren smiled kindly in return. “Just call me Grandpa as Weston does.”
Stella walked to the dining table and sat down. “Sure, Grandpa.”
Even Wendy was taken aback. “Grandpa?”
