Chapter 800 When Stella finally recognized the face that had appeared in front of her, she smiled.
“Oh!” she exclaimed. “It‘s you!”
“What are you doing here, Miss Steele?”
Ben was initially surprised, but he became slightly embarrassed when he noticed the expressions on Stella‘s face.
“Did you think that I was Mr. Ford?” he asked. “He‘s still in a meeting right now. I came down to get some documents for him. How about waiting for him in his office instead, Miss Steele?”
The receptionist sprang to her feet when she saw Ben politely addressing the woman and held her breath in terror. She had assumed that the woman was suspicious when even Daisy didn‘t know her, but judging from how Ben treated her; she must be someone really special to Mr. Ford.
Did she just make a terrible mistake not letting her in?
But Stella had no intention to cause the receptionist any trouble.
“Don‘t tell Weston that I‘ll be waiting for him in his office, okay? I want to give him a surprise!”
“Okay,” replied Ben without any hesitation,
He was sure that Weston would be fine with it, in fact, as things stood, even if Stella wanted Weston to get her the stars in the sky, Ben was sure that Weston would do anything in his power to get them for her or dle trying
Today was the first time Stella came to Weston‘s office on her own accord. Ben had shown her into the office and left. Now all alone, she sat down in his chair and slowly closed her eyes.
For some reason , Weston‘s office chair felt, unlike any other chair she had ever sat on. It made her feel as if she was on top of the world. She immensely enjoyed the
feeling.
With her eyes closed, she swiveled the chair back and forth and swung her legs without a care in the world until the chair suddenly stopped moving.
“No!” she pleaded. “Don‘t do this…”
Weston took hold of her wrists and raised her arms above her head. His wristwatch felt stone cold as it pressed against her skin.
“Say my name,” he repeated.
The coldness of his watch contrasted with the heat
coming from the palm of his hand, and it made Stella shrink away from him.
Weston chuckled under his breath before pulling her back towards him. “Didn‘t you say you wanted to give me a surprise ?” He teased her. “Why are you shying away from me now?”
Stella became clear–headed for a moment, and she grumbled, “I told Ben to keep it a secret! Why did he tell you about it?”
“Did you forget that he works for me?”
