Chapter 797
Stella stood in front of the mirror by the sink, brushing her teeth and washing her face. She couldn‘t help but notice the dark circles under her eyes. She sighed, stretched, and yawned.
That was when she noticed something strange — there was a ring on her finger! Stella put her toothbrush down and stared agape at the diamond ring. When did it get there?
She stood there unmoving for a long while, thoughts racing in her mind before she finally came to a realization that it was probably Weston who put it on her finger last night, even though she had no recollection of it happening at all.
Weston had been... Savage with her last night. She didn‘t even remember when she fell asleep.
The discovery of the ring gave her mixed feelings. She took it off and left it on the bathroom counter before going about her day, no longer wanting to think about it. Then she received a text message from Weston telling her that he‘d already prepared her breakfast and kept it in the fridge. Stella then replied with a sweet message to him, but even if the message itself was affectionate , the real expression on her face at the time was stony and stolid.
She tossed her phone aside and ate her breakfast. Then she went back to the bathroom and put the ring back on her finger before taking a picture of it and sending it to Weston.
“Strange,” wrote the message that accompanied the photo. “I woke up and suddenly found a ring on my finger!”
Weston‘s phone vibrated in the middle of a meeting. His eyes darted towards it, and after glancing at the screen, a smile crept across his face.
The person giving him a report was startled . He didn‘t even dare to breathe. Why did Mr. Ford smile all of a sudden? What did it mean? Was he being sarcastic about it?
Meanwhile, Ben had noticed it too, but he instantly understood what was happening. No one else in the world could make Weston smile like that. He gestured to the person presenting his report to keep going and don‘t be distracted.
When the meeting was over, Weston‘s private life usually became the hot topic of discussion, especially among those in the secretary‘s office.
“Did you notice that the boss seems to be in a really good mood lately?”
“Yeah,” another replied, “perhaps we‘ll be hearing some good news soon!”
