Mr. Ford Is Jealous novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76

The cigarette went out with a sharp sizzle.

Its light was extinguished in an instant.

Stella thought she must have heard wrongly. The noise bustled around her with no signs of abating

It was almost as if the chaos on the other side of the private room could not touch the space that Weston and she were in.

There were only the two of them there.

The silence was deafening.

Weston waited for a long while but did not receive any response from Stella.

He turned to look at her. “Come with me. State your price.”

Stella shut her eyes.

She lowered her head, no longer able to hold back her laughter. A cryptic smile appeared on her face, and she laughed so hard that her shoulders shook. Weston furrowed his brows as he saw her laughing uncontrollably. He reached out and lifted her chin. “I asked you to state your price.”

Stella collected herself and looked at him expressionlessly. “I want my child back. Can you give that to me?’

At that moment, she felt a sharp, piercing pain at her chin. Weston tightened his pinch on her chin as his eyes turned chilly. “Stella Sealey, you were the one who chose to jump down that day.”

He said through gritted teeth.

As much as he had been trying to tolerate everything recently, and his performance had been impeccable, he lost all reason when Stella said what she said.

“I told you to trust me and that I won’t let you die. Why didn’t you trust me?” Stella looked at him calmly. “I also told you that they were Guinevere’s people. Why didn’t you trust me?”

Both of them had daggers drawn, their grudges and displeasure towards each other rearing their nasty heads.

Rage emerged in the depths of Weston’s eyes, clearly angered by Stella’s accusations. “And that’s why you jumped down right in front of me? Stella Sealey, did you do so to take revenge on me, thinking that I would regret my decision that way?”
