Chapter 652
Roger was still unaware of things between Stella and Weston. As such, his first response upon seeing Weston and
Guinevere was to avoid having Stella see them, lest the sight of them would ruin her day. However, since Stella had
spotted the two, he saw no need to continue the charade. He looked at his sister with concern. “Stella, it’s fine. It’s
just an unabashed couple. You’ll easily find a better man in the future.”
Stella’s face remained expressionless as she retracted her gaze. She shook her head and said, “This isn’t
something you should be bothered by.”
Roger remained silent as he surveyed Stella nervously. Stella looked up and smiled at him. “Are you worried about
me because you think that I still have feelings for Weston?”
“I didn’t mean that,” Roger immediately denied her claim. He furrowed his brows and went on, “How could a man
like him be worthy of my sister?”

What Roger really wanted to do was to give Weston a good beating, but he knew that it would only serve to create
trouble for Stella. Thus, he chose to remain silent
instead.
At the reception counter.
Guinevere hooked her arm around Weston’s. “I thought you’d be very busy during this period. To think that you
actually have the time to treat me to a meal…”
When she received Ben’s call, she became exceedingly flattered and overwhelmed.
After all, ever since that incident with Stella, she had been the one taking the initiative rather than Weston.
This was, in fact, the first time he invited her out.
Was it because she took the initiative to seek reconciliation at his office the last time?
Her parents were right-all men were the same. They might fancy ty, but they would be even more
appreciative of a generous woman.
If she were to micro-manage, it would only serve to annoy him further. But if she were to give him the freedom he
wanted, it would make him like her even more.

What she needed right now was to be even more understanding to him than Ella.
Given her status, Guinevere had to disguise herself
whenever she went out so she would not be recognized. It was a natural choice to reserve a private room, which
happened to be opposite the cubicle Stella and Roger were dining in.
After seeing both of them leave , Roger heaved a sigh of relief. “They’re finally gone.” Stella, who was initially
nonchalant about their appearance , suddenly burst out laughing at the look of hatred on Roger’s face. “What are
you laughing about? How could you laugh about this!” Roger looked at her, confused.

“I’m raging! I can’t believe I used to think Weston was a decent man who could care for you.”
He must have been blind back then to even call Weston his brother-in-law when he ended up not caring about Stella
a single bit.
“If I weren’t sick back then, I would have beaten him senseless!”
The waiter began serving them their dishes.
Stella poured him a cup of water. “Didn’t you punch him once already?”
Roger took over the cup from her and took a huge gulp. “I was sick back then and didn’t exert full strength…”
The fire burning in his heart showed no signs of subsiding.
“You’re the one who officially got married to him, yet rumors are spreading everywhere about how Guinevere is
Weston’s first love. How could that woman be so shameless?”
Whatever it was, his sister was the one who registered her marriage with Weston. Why did she have to be the one
to retreat the moment Guinevere appeared?
What did they take his sister for?
“All right, that’s enough. Let’s stop thinking about these people,” Stella patted his head affectionately. “Let’s just
enjoy our meal. After you go overseas, we’ll have very few chances to share a meal.”
