Chapter 1294Chapter 1294
She did not know why, but though she clearly couldn’t see this man and didn’t know what he looked like,
she felt unusually relaxed when interacting with him.
“This is not a secret anyway. The entire city knows about it.”
Weston held a press conference three years ago in order to clear her name and make these details
known to the public.
[I heard rumors that he had a very painful time in the past three years.] The man paused for a moment
and looked at her.
Stella laughed. “You do know a lot about him.”
After pausing for a moment, the man said, [Not really. It’s just that basically all the people in Ahn City
know about him.]
“Indeed. His every action is watched and exaggerated.”
She no longer had any particular emotion when she talked about this matter.
It was just that…
She suddenly stared at the man beside her. “Why do you care about him so much?”
[Do I?]
“Of course. Don’t you think you care too much about my ex–husband? Those who don’t know you will
think you’re interested in him.”
[I’m not interested in him. I just want to know the details of my rival and the key to winning this battle.] His carefree remark caught her.
The apple in her hand dropped into the plate, making a soft sound.
She thought she heard it wrongly and asked in embarrassment, “What did you say just now?”
The man seemed to enjoy looking at her surprised face.
Even though the machine could not voice any emotion, she could still feel his eyes smiling. “I said that I
wanted to know more about my rival. Is there anything wrong with it?”
Seeing her hands remain motionless and a bit stiff, he took the plate in her hands, prodded a piece of
apple, and
sent it to her mouth.
She did not open her mouth, so he gently pried open her mouth and shoved the apple in. “Eat it.”
She chewed it, and the sweetness of the apple filled her mouth.
She was a bit overwhelmed. “Is that what I think it means?”
[It means what you think it means.]
The man said, [My ability to express myself should be considered clear, right?]
“You…”
Stella was a bit perplexed, never to have predicted such a scene.
[I know you will not believe it. But there is one thing I must tell you clearly. I want to pursue you. I want to
be with you.] She was as if hearing a funny joke. “You don’t even dare to talk to me in your real voice.”
[I told you, it’s because I’m sick.]
“What kind of sickness is it? If you can talk, why don’t
you talk to me?”
[I will tell you when the time comes.]
He said, “I shall leave you in suspense for now.”
She sneered. “You’ve only met me for just a few days, and you already fallen in love with me. I didn’t
expect you to be so frivolous. You don’t look like Joan’s son at all.”
