Chapter 858

Ever since Guinevere had been diagnosed with mental illness; she had used it as an excuse to get
Weston to visit her.

It used to work, but Weston decided to stop granting her that courtesy

“From now on, you don‘t have to answer these calls.”

Daisy froze for a moment. “Mr. Ford, what do you mean?”

“Mr. Ford means that he shouldn‘t be bothered with the Cohen family‘s matters anymore,” Ben chimed
in.

Daisy‘s eyes flickered for a moment.

“I understand,” she said after a moment and turned to leave.

It seemed Weston was serious this time. He was breaking ties with the Cohen family for real.

As soon as he turned down the Cohen family, Chris called.

“I’m looking for Weston.”

Weston knew this was coming.

He gave Ben a look. Ben got the message and left the office at once.

As soon as the call connected, Chris barked into the phone irritatedly. “What the hell are you trying to
do?”

Weston frowned. “State your business.”



Chris took a deep breath. He tried to calm down, but he could not conceal the anger in his tone. “You
think you‘re so tough now, huh? How can you ignore our agreement?!”

A smile formed on Weston‘s lips. “I wanted to keep our agreement, but the Cohen family went
overboard...”

“I don‘t care about that! Weston, what did you promise me?”

Chris got worked up. “You said you‘d be with Guinevere . How could you hurt her like this? What if, one
day, she remembers everything?”

“Well, she doesn‘t remember it now, does she?”

“Are we going to leave a ticking time bomb in the open? Doesn‘t it disturb you when you think of it?”

“You should be worried.”

“Weston! You‘re my son!” Chris roared in a fury.

“We‘re all in this together! If I go down, you‘re coming down with me! How do you think you‘ll fare if this
thing blows up?!”

“It’ll be bad.” Weston paused. “But no worse than before,” he added.

Chris‘ tone suddenly changed, and he sounded exhausted. “Is she so important to you? It‘s not that I
don‘t want you to be together, but can‘t you just maintain the balance like before ?”

He simply couldn‘t understand why this was so difficult for Weston. Guinevere had clearly made
concessions–she‘d taken a step back and was even willing to accept Ella‘s presence.



Weston could‘ve made Guinevere his wife while simultaneously keeping Ella as his lover. There would
be no conflict of interest, and none would be the wiser.

“Even if Ella is Stella, you‘re already divorced. Why are you still so obsessed over her?”

Chris didn‘t realize how little he knew about his son until the incident at the engagement party. He had
always thought his son didn‘t care for women.

All these years, he had no other woman around him except for Guinevere.

Chris never imagined that Weston would give their family such a big surprise.

“Now that things have come to this...” Weston began coldly.” There‘s no point in talking to me about all
these. Why don‘t you think about your problem? Do you want to keep hiding this, or do you want to tell
Mom the...”

“You mustn‘t tell her!” Chris cut him off at once. His voice trembled a little in fear. “With how she is, she
absolutely won‘t let me go once she gets to know...”

Weston fell into a short silence after hearing that.

“Why are you so afraid of telling her the truth?” he asked after a while. “Are you afraid of her sadness or
her revenge?”

Chris and Wendy had, after all, been known to be a loving couple for many years.
