Chapter 237
The siblings were both hiding something. They did not notice when it started, but even they could not be
completely honest with each other. A strange feeling hit Stella when she finally realized this. The siblings
did not spend much time together. Later in the afternoon, Roger had to pack up the books for his
afternoon class. He was a computer major and was packed with many classes in his course. He only had
a day like this that was a little free. Stella watched as Roger organized his textbooks. She said with a
look of relief, “In a few years, you will finally grow up.” “I’m already grown up.” “Not yet.” Stella looked at
him and reached out to help him flatten the crease on his clothes. ** You’ll be an adult when you
graduate from the university. Mom and Dad would be relieved in

Roger suddenly stopped. He turned around and looked at Stella Roger rested his forehead on her
shoulder and sighed. “Sis, if you get into any trouble, you have to let me know. I’m an adult now. Don’t
treat me like a child.” Stella felt he might have noticed something, She patted him on the back without
saying a word. After Roger left, she called Weston back His voice on the other end was very low. “I’ll
have the driver pick you up.”
Stella hesitated a little before saying, “Okay.” She had something she wanted to discuss with Weston.
The driver pulled over at a spot far away from the neighborhood. Stella had to take a taxi to get there.
She did not want to risk her chances and let Roger see her with Weston. When she got into the car, she
found Weston in the back seat resting with his eyes closed. He had a stack of papers in his hand. He
looked busy with work Weston had just left Guinevere’s place. She thought he would not show up for a
while, but she did not think he would come to pick her up in person. “Why aren’t you getting in?” Weston
noticed her inaction and glanced at her lightly. Stella got into the car and did not make a sound. Right
after she closed the door, the man immediately pulled her into his arms. Before she could react, Weston
was already holding her tightly. He placed one hand on her back and stroked her gently.
Stella wanted to struggle, but the man lowered his voice and warned in her ears, “Let me hold you for a
little longer.” He sounded exhausted.
Stella blinked and did not move. She allowed him to hold her just like this.
After a long while, Weston finally looked down and placed a kiss on her hair. “Did you sleep well last
night?” he asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella leaned against his shoulder, unable to move Hearing his question, she only answered faintly, “Yes.
How about you? Did you sleep well?”
Weston stiffened a little.
He deliberately came this time to explain Guinevere’s matter to her. He was sure that she must have
heard something on the phone that day
Weston left Ford Mansion and came straight to her. Even he did not understand why he had such a
strong urge to explain to Stella.
He never bothered explaining himself, and he did not care either. However, it was different this time.
Weston stroked Stella’s hair and whispered in her ear, “Do you have any questions for me?” Stella did
not understand him. “What can I ask you?” Weston tipped her chin. “About last night.”
Stella shook her head. “No.”
Weston nibbled on her ear. “No questions? Really?”
