Chapter 151
Stella immediately stood up and ran towards Justin without hesitation.
Weston’s eyes darkened, then dulled as he watched her run to him.
He stood up and gently adjusted his watch.
Justin noticed his movement and saw the watch on his wrist.
If he wasn’t mistaken, the watch was worth a villa.
Weston wasn’t in the habit of bragging, but Justin saw it as an insult.
He instantly realized how much of a gap there was between his ability and Weston’s.
He had always thought he was living in decent conditions but quickly realized that he was nothing
compared to Weston.
His feeling of helplessness intertwined with his need to protect Stella, causing a passionate
determination that he had never felt in 40 years to ooze out of him

He held her in his arms and placed one hand on her back in a protective gesture. “Ella and I will pick up
the marriage certificate tomorrow. As for what happened today, your behavior can be regarded as
harassment. I wonder if you have time to go to the police station with us.”
Stella’s eyes were wide with surprise as she gazed at him. She didn’t expect him to be that
straightforward.
Justin lowered his head and fixed his focus on her. “Don’t be concerned. I won’t allow him to hurt you.”
Stella’s heartbeat accelerated as she gazed into his eyes.
He watched Weston’s expression, but he didn’t feel frightened at all. “How are you still so innocent at the
age of forty?” he asked, staring into his eyes with an impression of gazing at an insignificant ant.
Justin frowned and wanted to say something when a familiar figure came rushing to him. “Justin!
Where’s Bryce?”
The lady seemed concerned. She was still in her uniform, suggesting that she had just left the firm.
She was only a few years younger than Justin, so she was a woman of age, but she had kept her skin in
good condition and appeared youthful. With her hair brushed neatly to the back, she gave off the
appearance of an elegant lady. Stella subconsciously turned to look at her. Her instinct told her that the
woman was Justin’s ex-wife, Tina
Tina seemed to have just noticed Stella. Her demeanor softened somewhat, but she remained silent and
stared directly at Justin. “How can you leave him in the restaurant alone? Where has he gone to?” Her
tone could be regarded as inciteful.
Justin frowned and turned to the waiter beside him. “Didn’t I ask you to help me watch my
son?”
The waiter’s face dropped, and he instantly turned to look at Justin before looking at Tina and
apologizing. “We’re so sorry, madam. We didn’t know you’re his mother…” “I told you I’m his mother.
Why did you forcefully take him away?” “Bryce called me earlier, so I came from the company to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcelebrate his birthday, but when I arrived, I noticed that he was all alone,” Tina stated calmly. “We were
speaking when one of the waiters came over and said you need to see Bryce alone, and he led him
away. They refused to let me follow. I thought the entire situation was unusual, so I called you, but you
didn’t answer. And I’m not sure where Bryce went.”
She did feel that something was off at that time because it wasn’t like Justin to leave Bryce alone.
When the waiter and the men came to take Bryce away, they didn’t even listen to her and snatched him
by force.
There were too many of them, and she couldn’t fight them off.
The more she considered it, the stranger the scenario seemed. Worse, she couldn’t reach Justin and
had merely come to locate him, but who would have guessed that she would be witnessing such a
scene.
Hearing this, Justin’s face darkened.
“Did you do this?” He glared coldly at Weston.
