“Get out of my way,” Stella sternly told Nicole.
But Nicole wouldn’t budge. Blocking her way, her eyes glinted red with anger as she hissed, “I really can’t
believe how vicious a woman you actually are! He went in to save you, yet you cruelly left him there all
alone on that mountain to die! He’s critical right now, and he’ll likely never wake up again! How can you
be so heartless?”
Stella merely frowned slightly as Nicole hurled a barrage of accusations. Apart from that, she seemed
practically unflustered.
“If you feel so sorry for him, why don’t you go to him and nurse him to health?” she asked Nicole.
“You-”
Nicole was so enraged she was rendered speechless. She raised her hand, ready to slap Stella, but
Daisy suddenly rushed from behind and shoved her aside.
“Stop it!” she yelled. “Don’t cause any trouble!”
Her eyes were bloodshot. She looked exhausted, as though she hadn’t slept a wink in the past week.
When she first noticed Stella, a look of hatred flashed in her eyes, but she maintained a
secretary’s professionalism and told Stella, “Please excuse us. We’re only here to visit Mr. Ford. My
cousin’s emotions are a little out of control right now.”
She spoke in an icy tone. While she maintained a polite and formal demeanor, the undercurrent of cold
contempt in her voice was undeniable. With regard to the accident that befell Weston, Daisy and Nicole were united in their opinions that what
Stella did was completely beyond the pale.
It had been Stella’s exceedingly good fortune to have the honor of catching the eye of someone like
Weston Ford. He even went so far as to risk his own life to save her, only for her to be completely
unmoved. Not only that, but she even unhesitatingly left him for dead when his life was in peril. And now
she was not even willing to visit him!
“I regret having once regarded you as my rival,” said Daisy. “A cold–blooded woman like you could never
be worthy of Mr. Ford.”
“I’ve never regarded you as my rival,” Stella retorted, completely unperturbed by Daisy’s words. Then,
without any expressions on her face, she added, “I wish you success in your endeavor.”
Her calm and unbothered tone of voice further enraged
the two women. Nicole wished for nothing more than to kill her right now, but Daisy still managed to keep
her composure as she told Stella, “Hopefully, you’ll remember what you said today. When Mr Ford wakes
up, please don’t ever come to him and bother him anymore…”
She paused, then with a change in her voice that made her sound weak and helpless, she added, “In his
current state, he won’t be able to withstand any more harm.”
Later, when Daisy entered the private ward, she saw Wendy staying by Weston’s side.
She had bumped into Chris Ford outside, but he just kept pacing back and forth at the door, reluctant to
come in. After nodding at her briefly, he just watched as Daisy came into the room.
“So you’re here, Madam?” Wendy nodded her head. Knowing that Daisy was Weston’s secretary, she asked her, “How’s everything
going at the company? Is everything in order?”
“Everything’s in order, Madam. With Mr Xavier Ford’s help, all the important projects in progress can still
run smoothly without any problems.”
Wendy nodded. Like Daisy, she also looked a little haggard. Everything that had transpired in the last two
years had taken a heavy toll on her. She managed to walk away from it all a few years ago and started
her life anew, working in the entertainment industry just as she used to do all those years ago and finally
managing to carve out her own independent life.
She just wanted to leave all the bad things that had happened behind her. Right now, what she wished to
do was to make it up to Weston for neglecting him all these years, for failing to fulfill her responsibilities
as his mother.
But it seemed that it was all too late for that.
In some matters, once you were too late, then there really was not much to do about it. No matter how
much you tried to make it up to someone, trying your best to right your past wrongs, nothing would come
of it and you just could not improve the situation at all.
In fact, you might even end up not being needed anymore.
It was precisely because of this reason that she was still unable to forgive Chris Ford for what he had
done.
Ever since his scandalous secret was exposed, it seemed Chris had finally realized his past mistakes.
He started to go to Wendy and beg for her forgiveness, asking her to get back together with him.
