Chapter 857

Stella called Roger the first thing in the morning, but still, there was no response.

Weston told her to stop thinking about all this nonsense and focus on their wedding instead. Because of
what happened at the engagement party, Weston had decided to move the wedding date up.

Warren disagreed with it, but he did not say anything.

Before going to the office, Weston pinched Stella’s face. “I‘ve hired a team of designers to be in charge
of our wedding. You can tell them what kind of wedding you want.”

Stella smiled at him with a nod, but she still looked worried.

“If you‘re still worried, I can send someone over to take a look,” Weston attempted to reassure her.

However, Stella shook her head in response. “No need for that.

“You‘re right. He is an adult. He‘s probably busy with something.”

Weston noticed something in her reaction. “Stella, you don‘t trust me?”

“No. If I didn‘t, why would I remarry you?”

Stella told him, “But Roger already has a prejudice against you. If you send someone over there, I‘m
afraid he‘ll reject you even more.”

Weston eased his look and patted her head. “I know. You shouldn‘t worry too much.”

Stella breathed a sigh of relief.



After Weston left, Stella checked the local news in Compassvale and the school‘s official website and
was relieved to see no reports about international students encountering any accidents in Compassvale.

Meanwhile, at the Ford Corporation building.

The farce at the engagement party had a detrimental impact on the company–news about Weston‘s
scandals and his past with Guinevere caused the company‘s market capitalization to dip slightly.
However, it was still manageable.

When the project in the western suburbs was announced to the public, people quickly realized there was
more to the project than they thought. However, the potential earnings were so great it made them forget
about Weston’s scandal.

Weston could reap hundreds of millions of dollars in profits for Ford Corporation and its partners, making
his scandals seem trivial in comparison to the obscene profits he could get.

Ben had always admired Weston at work. Sometimes, he even thought that a man like Weston did not
need a woman. What was the point of all that trouble?

It left Ben wondering what could be different if Weston had focused all his energy on work. Under his
stellar leadership, Ford Corporation might just reach heights that nobody would‘ve ever imagined they
could achieve.

Suddenly, someone from the secretary‘s office came in to report something

“Mr. Ford...”

It turned out to be Daisy.

Ben stopped her at the door. “What‘s the matter?”

Daisy looked at him with a troubled look. “Mr. Sullivan, I have something urgent to report to Mr. Ford...”



To which Ben reproached with a frown. “Mr. Ford doesn‘t like to be interrupted in the middle of work. Next
time, call in advance.”

Daisy looked stressed. “I know, but it‘s a phone call from the Cohen family...”

Ben paused for a moment and looked at Weston.

Weston rubbed his temple. “What is it?”

“They said Ms. Cohen‘s condition has worsened. They want you to go over and visit her...”

Daisy looked at Weston from his side with a complicated feeling. She had heard about the engagement
party incident and thought Ella was merely his new love. Little did she expect that she was actually his
ex–wife.

Why would a man like him be attracted to only a woman like her?

Daisy always thought Weston would keep changing partners. First, it was Guinevere. Then came Ella.
After that, perhaps he would‘ve dated a better woman.

What was so good about Ella? No, what was so great about Stella?

Daisy simply couldn‘t figure it out. If she compared herself to Guinevere, she would lose because of her
family background. However, she had already conceded with the knowledge that it wasn‘t a part of her
that she could change.

‘But Ella...’

Daisy thought there wasn‘t too much of a difference between them. She believed she had the upper
hand as Weston‘s secretary
