Chapter 883

Roger seemed to be agitated by her. He suddenly covered his chest and took a few steps back. His face
paled as beads of sweat fell from his face.

Stella quickly pushed Weston away and rushed to Roger.” What‘s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Is
there something wrong with your heart again?”

Roger gritted his teeth and pushed her away. “That‘s none of your business!”

“Stop it!” Stella raised her voice and anxiously covered his chest. She turned to Weston and said,
“Weston, take him to the hospital!”

Weston looked at her in silence. He breathed an inaudible sigh at her anxiousness.

“Get in the car.”

After that, at the hospital. The medics wheeled Roger into the emergency room on a stretcher. Roger
was unconscious and furrowed his brow hard with his eyes closed. His mind was a blur.

Stella watched the two doors close and slid down helplessly as she leaned against the wall.

Weston looked down at her and reached out to pick her up.” Don‘t worry. He‘ll be okay.”

He said, “The surgery before was a success. This was just an unexpected situation. He‘ll recover soon.”

Stella was still anxious . After all, Roger had undergone heart surgery. He still had to take care of his
health after a successful surgery.

She kept telling Roger to take care of his health and not be complacent after the successful surgery. She
held back from telling him the plan because of his health. She feared it would stimulate him too much.



Stella had originally planned not to tell Roger these at all. If her plan with Warren succeeded, she would
be able to leave Weston‘s control. There was no need to let Roger know. That way, she would not have
shocked him so much that he was hospitalized.

Stella rested her head on Weston‘s waist and rasped, “I want to be alone...”

Weston stroked her hair and stopped talking.

From Roger‘s outfit, Weston could tell he had had a rough time. No one could find Roger because he
had not been in Compassvale for a long while. However, there was no record of his departure.

Roger had suddenly reappeared in the country. It meant someone must have taken him back without
anyone‘s knowledge. It was a difficult thing to do.

Weston‘s eyes slowly darkened.

From Roger‘s disheveled look earlier, it was obvious that he had gone through a lot of things.

His clothes were all wrinkled, and he had not groomed his beard for days. He was in bad shape.

Maybe he had returned to the country by smuggling, which was why they could not find his departure
record.

Time passed slowly. For Stella, the wait became infinitely longer.

Weston stood beside her and waited. Ben tried to speak several times but held back and closed his
mouth.

When Weston‘s phone rang, the ringtone was abruptly loud in the empty hallway. He rejected the call
without hesitation, but his phone kept ringing again and again.



Weston furrowed his brows. He wanted to turn off his phone, but he heard Stella say, “If you have any
emergency, go and take care of it.”

She looked up at him. “I want to be alone.”

Weston looked down at her with waves of emotions surging deep in his eyes. “I‘ll stay with you.”

Stella managed a smile and put her hand on the back of his. “I understand your concern... But I just want
to be alone right now.”
