Mr. Ford Is Jealous novel Chapter 1031

Chapter 1031 Weston had Stella seated in the back seat.

He had switched to a Maybach with plenty of room for two people. He reached out, took off his jacket, and threw it at his feet.

Stella finally looked at him and realized that he wasn‘t shaved. With stubbles around his mouth, he looked tired and haggard.

Weston noticed her gaze and looked down at her. “What‘s wrong?”

Stella said, “I didn‘t kill anyone.” She suddenly reached out and grabbed the corner of his shirt. Perhaps it was the way Weston protected her from those attacks; the way he defended her, reminded her of the day he had saved her from the acid attack without hesitation.

‘Did you believe in me?‘ she wondered.

“I really didn‘t,” she repeated again stubbornly.

Weston had an unreadable emotion on his face. He did not say he believed her, but he did not refute her either.

He exhaled and looked at her with a serious face. “Stella, this is a serious matter. You have to tell me the truth. Did you know? The oleanders you have are highly toxic.”

Stella‘s eyelashes fluttered twice. She knew there was no point in lying at a time like this, so she nodded. “I know.”

Weston tightened the force of his hand, clutching her wrist. “If you knew, why did you keep it anyway?”

Stella lowered her eyes and said nothing. How could she

explain?

She had never thought of killing Zachary, but she did want to kill Weston...

Weston seemed to understand something from her silence. He pulled her into his embrace. “It‘s not important anymore. I told you.”

Weston lowered his head and pressed a kiss on her

forehead. “This will be over soon as long as you cooperate with me.”

However, the basis of doing that was so that she‘d admit that she killed Zachary by mistake. Why should she admit to a crime she never comitted?

Why did Weston tell her to do so? Did he think of her as the murderer too?

“Stop being so stubborn.” Weston did not look back at

her. He was afraid that he would say yes to her after seeing her tears. He knew what would happen if he agreed to her.

He couldn‘t afford to be soft–hearted.

If he did, she might have to spend the rest of her life in prison. Even if she hated him, he had to keep her by his side.

He could protect her, as long as she was within his sight.

“Stay here and don‘t go anywhere. Ben will watch over you.”

Then, he closed the door. After the sound of the door closing, the room fell back into darkness.
