Chapter 1425
Weston had never bought anything so cheap for Stella.
Hayden, however, continued to irritate him. “If you look around, not many can compare to you in wealth, but so what? Stella has nothing to do with you and doesn’t want your gift to her either. You’ve promised to leave her in peace. Even if a man gifts her a cheaper gift, it’s none of your business.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Weston’s face seemed to turn gloomy at Hayden’s words. He did not show much expression on his face, but it was clear that he was on the verge of anger.
Ben thought Weston would lose it, but it did not happen. Instead, Weston took a deep breath and said indifferently, “You’re right. She should get to know more men.”
Ben was stunned to hear this and turned to Weston in disbelief. He could not believe this was coming from him.
Let Stella get to know more men? Was that something Weston would say? Was he a fool?
Hayden was a little surprised but not as shocked as Ben. He looked Weston up and down and teased, “Mr. Ford. You’re not going to act as a gatekeeper who determines the man Stella could date, are you?”
“Why not?” Weston gave him a look and said softly, “At least I read people better than her. This man is clearly a miser. He can barely afford Stella. Tell him to get lost.”
Hayden said with some amusement, “You should know Stella well. She’s not the kind of woman that wants to be spoiled.”
“There’s no conflict between her not letting others spoil her and the other person’s ability to do so.”
“And what does that have to do with you?” Hayden questioned. It seemed like he would not stop until Weston broke down.
Hayden reminded Weston, “You’re just her ex–husband now. You’ve decided to leave her in peace. She can be with any man she wants, and what does it have to do with you?”
Hayden expected Weston’s denial, but Weston calmly retorted him instead. “Even if I’m letting her go, I’ll at least ensure she’ll have a good life in the future.”
“So that’s why you’re keeping an eye on her?”
Instead of answering, Weston had the car pulled away.
Ben did as ordered without saying a word.
Hayden continued, “You haven’t even investigated this man. Why are you assuming he’s not right for Stella?”
“Such a miser is in no way a match for her. Tell Roger this: if he wants to introduce a man to Stella, he has to come to me to get my approval.”
The usually calm Hayden couldn’t help but silently curse at Weston’s insanity.
Weston was clearly still concerned about Stella but pretended to push her away. Hayden was waiting to see the day Weston would regret in pain!
