Chapter 1120Chapter 1120
Ben wasn’t too surprised that Weston actually came.
He was clearly concerned about his wife, so why did he have to put himself in such a dilemma?
He would only push his woman further and further away.
“Mrs. Ford is in good shape today. If there is no accident, the trial should go well.”
Weston wasn’t worried about the trial. He had made so much preparation that diminished confidence
was out of the question.
However, even though a desirable outcome was almost a sure thing, he still wanted to see Stella walk
out of the courtroom with her name cleared.
Ben stayed by his side and waited quietly with him.
As a light drizzle came upon the area, the low rumble of a car got louder as it approached from the
distance.
A white Lexus stopped in front of them, and a man in casual clothes stepped out
“Mr. Ford, so you are here. I went to the office just now, but the receptionist told me you were not in the
office.”
Michael smiled, pulling his collar. His red eyes told of how little sleep he must’ve slept.
He always looked neat and clean, though he looked a bit messy at the moment.
His tie was nowhere to be seen, and the top of his shirt was left unbuttoned casually. He was unshaven ,
and his eyes were bloodshot. He looked disheveled and miserable.
“I guessed you would be here. It‘s Stella‘s trial today. You will certainly accompany her.”
He let out an ambiguous smile that looked fake.
His appearance alerted Ben. “What brings you here, Mr. Sealey?”
Michael‘s face turned gloomy instantly, and he charged toward Weston. His tone had lost its initial
calmness, and the anger he was holding back was finally cut open. He glared at Weston.
“I‘d like to ask Mr. Ford about his wife, Stella, who also happens to be my niece... about what she said to
Diana!”
When he uttered the last word, he was almost gnashing his teeth.
How could he have ever imagined that? Thinking that everything was flawless, he would still end up with
Diana knowing that he had cheated on her.
He could never forget Diana‘s heartbroken look last night.
She was standing at Riley’s room door, looking at him with a pale face and streaking tears.
His heart ached as he watched.
For a moment, he really wanted to go back in time and strangle himself.
Why was he such an a*****e at that time? Doing those things that made her sad…
He knew she would be sad, but he did it anyway.
He could find countless excuses for himself in front of Stella, but when facing Diana, the woman who
carried his child, he became speechless, unable to utter a single word. He had prepared a thousand excuses to explain himself, but he could say nothing to her face.
Diana was still standing there with red eyes and tears streaming down her face waiting for him to speak.
In the end, he only said three words. “I am sorry.”
Then, he saw the light on Diana’s face fade instantly. Her face was so pale that it was almost
transparent, and her body shook uncontrollably.
He hurriedly moved forward to hold her. “It’s all my
fault. You can scold me or hit me, but don’t hold it in your heart. You are pregnant…”
At the mention of this, her face changed immediately,
and she pushed him away violently. “Get out of the way!”
He tried to stop her and even knelt in front of her.” Diana, don’t go…”
He tried to beg her not to be so impulsive for the sake of the baby.
They argued and fought for a long time that day.
Later, Riley figured out what had happened and was a little shocked.
She did not know that Stella and Michael were related.
What’s more, she did not know that the uncle she had always thought was Mr. Nice Guy was actually
unfaithful to her aunt behind her back.
Riley originally wanted to side with Diana and scold Michael, but Diana was still pregnant, and she
shouldn’t get too emotional.
