Chapter 1079Chapter 1079 Angelina finally learned something about the situation surrounding Stella today. Although it
was all very upsetting, and she still did not know Stella‘s condition in the end, at least she found out
about one thing–that she could never tease any information out of Weston‘s mouth.
Even though she actually met Weston Ford himself, she still ended up getting no information about
Stella. At least he made her finally give up the undertaking entirely, and she would still thank him for that
one helpful deed.
Angelina picked up her bag and looked at the time. It was already very late. She was just about to call a
friend to pick her up when something in the distance of the underground parking lot caught her eye– it
was Weston Ford, and he was with another woman.
She paused.
That woman was not Guinevere Cohen–in fact, she was quite sure she had never seen this woman
before. But that face somewhat reminded her of someone else, especially her eyes and eyebrows — she
seemed to bear a slight resemblance to Stella.
Angelina dashed behind a nearby pillar to hide. Those two could not see her now, enabling her to
eavesdrop on their
conversation.
Belle was a little alarmed when she saw Weston.
“Mr. Ford, what are you doing here?” She then scanned her surroundings and added a little nervously, “I
just came back to Ahn City because I have some business to attend to. I‘m leaving immediately after I‘ve
dealt with everything...” Weston leaned against the car door while smoking a cigarette. Exhaling a faint
cloud of smoke, he glanced at her, asking, “What kind of business?”
Belle pursed her lips when she heard the question before deciding to honestly admit, “An old friend from
Lowe Garden told me she could introduce me to a new job...” Back then, she was forced to leave the city
because of Guinevere Cohen. Although she received hefty compensation from Weston Ford, thanks to
her being accustomed to a lavish lifestyle, it did not take long before she spent her money once she
returned to her hometown. Owing to that, she thought she could find a place where she could return to
her old job again.
She shouldn‘t have come back to Ahn City, though. Guinevere Cohen would never let her reappear in
Weston‘s life ever again. If Guinevere were to ever find out that she was here, she would certainly not let
her off the hook and attempt to eliminate her as she did in the past.
But Belle did not expect to meet Weston here either. She carefully regarded him and asked, “Miss Cohen
isn‘t anywhere nearby, is she, Mr. Ford?”
Noticing her anxious and wary looks, Weston tapped the ashes off his cigarette twice. “You seem very
afraid of
her.”
Belle lowered her eyes and looked aggrieved when she told him, “She‘ll be upset if she sees me. I
wouldn‘t dare to provoke her either. Besides, I‘ve heard you‘re back with her again lately...”
“Sounds like you‘re fully up to speed about things,” Weston sneered, but he looked completely indifferent
with no discernible expression.
Belle was actually quite smitten by this man, but she was also afraid of him because she could never
guess what was exactly on his mind.
Having followed their news after she left Ahn City, she knew everything that had happened to them. The
engagement party and the wedding were so extravagant, not to mention how the oleander poisoningturned out to be such a massive scandal; one would actually have to live under a rock not to be up to
speed.
She heard that Guinevere Cohen and Weston Ford had been getting much closer to each other lately.
Many even speculated if they were going to rekindle their relationship.
Belle had no idea if any of that was true, but she knew one thing for sure–if Guinevere Cohen were to
ever see her, she would be taught a harsh lesson.
She had planned to stay away from Weston Ford forever, but after her short stint of poverty, the sight of a
rich, handsome man suddenly induced her with courage and audacity.
After all, being with Weston Ford once was something she could boast about for the rest of her life.
