Chapter 904
Weston looked at her steadily and asked with an unfluctuating voice, “Really, what did you hear?”
Stella looked into his eyes. “Why did you agree for Guinevere to attend our wedding?” she almost asked, but when their eyes met, and she thought of tomorrow‘s plan, she swallowed all her words back.
Hence, she simply said, “I heard that you wanted to add one more seat. Hasn‘t the guest list been decided? Why do you need another seat? Who else hasn‘t been invited?”
He put her on the bed and lay down beside her. Covered her up with the blanket, and he took her into his arms again. “It‘s no one important.”
“Oh...”
She did not ask anymore.
He brushed away the hair on her forehead and kissed her.
It was a kiss that was almost reverent.
He gazed into her eyes deeply with a look as gentle as the infinite night. “Goodnight, my bride.”
Tomorrow, she would become Mrs. Ford.
She smiled. “Goodnight, my bridegroom.”
She buried her head into his arms.
Inexplicably, a tear rolled out the corner of her eye.
On the wedding day.
Although Stella had said, she wanted the wedding to be simple… Her concept of simplicity was on a whole different level from Weston‘s.
Nearly a hundred limousines had arrived to pick up the bride, causing a heavy traffic jam.
The whole city was broadcasting the spectacle of the limousines adorned with wedding banners–and all the congratulatory messages contained two names:
Bridegroom: Weston.
Bride: Ella.
The ferry that Stella was on was also half an hour away from the shore.
She sat at the dressing table, waiting for the makeup artist to put on her makeup, when there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
Steady footsteps came from behind her. When she looked back, she found that the person in front of her was not the makeup artist from earlier but a sturdy man.
“Ms. Steele, Mr. Ford wants you to come with me.”
He then handed her a cell phone intercom.
“Grandpa,” Stella said as she took it.
Warren‘s voice came on the line.
“We‘ve managed to buy some time on Weston‘s side. We will switch you with a double. There is another ship at the dock that heads to another country. You will board that ship later.” Stella frowned. “Will Weston do anything on the double?”
