Chapter 1161Chapter 1161
Everyone began to take their seat at the table.
Daisy wanted to sit by Weston’s side, of course, but Nicole obviously wanted to grab that seat. The two
women glared at each other, both seething with hostility for the other in each other’s eyes.
Weston had no intention of choosing either, so he walked across to the opposite side of the table and
took a seat across from the two women.
Seeing this, Daisy and Nicole finally let go of the chair and gloomily sat themselves down.
Xavier couldn’t help himself from sniggering when he saw how Daisy was walking on eggshells around
Weston.
He and Daisy broke up not long after Stella died, and shortly before that, he had warned Daisy that if
she still showed interest in Weston, he would immediately end things.
Once Stella died, Daisy instantly became restless and antsy. She couldn‘t stop asking about Weston,
not to mention that she didn‘t bother hiding it from Xavier anymore.
Xavier had no lingering feelings for a woman like that, of course. He had wanted to dump her, but to his
surprise, Daisy was the one to strike first, dumping him before he had the chance to do it.
In all his life, no woman had ever treated him that way before. Except, of course, for that silly girl named
Zeta.
As he thought of Zeta, he became inexplicably irritable again, so for the rest of the meal, he spoke very
little. He basically spent all his time eating in silence.
Daisy and Nicole had prepared a lot of food, all neatly filling the table to the brim. Henry had initially come just to see all the commotion, but he was interested in seeing how Weston was
doing too. It had been three years, after all, and he was curious if Weston had forgotten Stella Sealey.
Unfortunately, Weston was not very welcoming to him at all. The relationship between the two former
best friends had been strained for a long time now, all because of Guinevere Cohen.
The main reason Henry was here was actually Angelina Thompson
Angelina had been pestering him day in and day out, asking him to come so he could keep an eye on
Daisy and Nicole to see if they had any ulterior motives.
Although Stella had died a few years ago, all her friends still missed her very much.
As soon as they got wind of Weston‘s slightest movements, Angelina would never fail to come to Henry
to find out all about it, as if she was being jealous and resentful on Stella‘s behalf.
“What right does he have to surround himself with beautiful women after Stella lost her life?! You have to
go there and keep an eye on him...”
Henry had no idea why he had to do what Angelina said. She clearly wasn‘t the woman in his memories
anyway.
Everyone at the table was lost in their own thoughts.
The two sisters kept giving each other meaningful looks.
Full of competitiveness and jealousy, they wouldn’t stop squabbling, and neither would give way to the
other.
Neither of them would let the other win. Nicole clearly hadn’t learned anything from Belle’s stark warning in the past.
She knew Weston was only tricking them into exonerating Stella Sealey, though all of his plans came to
naught when Stella ended up dying in prison.
Yet it was then that Nicole felt herself falling into a deep rabbit hole where she became hopelessly
obsessed with Weston.
She couldn’t help but wonder how much he must have loved that woman to make such intricate plans to
save her life. If a man who would do such a thing for her did exist, Nicole would never throw her life
away so carelessly the way Stella Sealey did.
Sometimes she couldn’t help but feel disdain for that woman. She just couldn‘t understand why Stella
wouldn‘t cherish and treasure what she had. If it had been Nicole, she would‘ve never been willing to
leave a great man who was so in love with her for anything in the world!
On the other side of the restaurant, Stella, carrying her two kids, had finally settled down at a table when
she was interrupted by a waitress rushing over.
“We apologize for the long wait, Madam, but someone has reserved the whole space downstairs, so we
have no choice but to move you upstairs. We‘ve arranged a table for you by the window. Is that okay with
you?”
