Chapter 117
After Weston sent Guinevere back to her apartment, he looked at his watch and guessed that Stella
should already be asleep, but he sent her a message anyway.
All his previous numbers were blacklisted by her, so he got another new number. It wasn’t an issue for
him, and she did not block his number again.
Perhaps she knew that her action was of no use, so she simply gave up.
Thinking of this, the man smiled.
After some time, he still did not receive any reply.
He didn’t expect that she would text back anyway, so he went to the bathroom for a quick shower. But
when he came out, he saw a weak light blinking on top of his phone. The moment he checked his phone,
his eyes darkened.

He picked up the call but did not say anything, waiting for her to speak After a while, he heard an
unfamiliar voice of a man. “Who are you? Why are you texting Stella in the middle of the night?”
At aa drive-in cinema.
Stella didn’t expect that she would be dating another man in just one short year.
She felt that she might not have the courage and energy to love anyone again after her terrible
experience.
It was not that no one tried to pursue her, but she just couldn’t bring herself to do so. Weston’s relentless
pursuit made her realize that there might be only one way to make him
give up-first, she had to get herself a boyfriend. Regardless, she did not want to let other people treat her
as a tool, like how he did before.
So, she explained her situation clearly beforehand. “I have an ex who is still clinging on to me, and I have
no plans to start a new relationship, so…”
They were all adults, so there were things that they understood even when they did not say it. That man
smiled. “It just so happens that I was also forced by my family to go out on a blind date and have no
intention of dating anyone. If you don’t mind, we can become a couple. Then, we can break up anytime
and anywhere when necessary without causing stress to each other.”
As long as both parties made it clear beforehand, Stella could still accept it.
This man was introduced to her by a colleague in the training center. According to her colleague, they
had been neighbors since they were young. So, she knew him well and assured
that he was a good man.
After informing Roger, she went out with this man for a movie,
It was her first time going to a drive-in cinema.
A huge screen was installed at the large parking area with all sorts of cars. They found a spot with a

He opened a can of beer and handed it to Stella. “Want one? If you cannot drink this, I brought some
juice.”
She smiled. “Yes, I can have a beer.”
He was a gentleman. He had had several relationships before, all of which he treated seriously.
It was because of his ex-girlfriends that he had lost interest in dating anymore. But his family kept on
urging him, so he came for the blind date.
Listening to his story, Stella felt that their experiences were very similar. As the two chatted, they did not
realize that it was already very late. Just at this time, Weston sent over a text message.
The moment she looked at the message, she stopped talking. The man sensed something and asked,
“Your ex?” Then, he held out his hand, smiling. “Here, let me help you.”
