At this moment, Weston felt no different from the regular folk that had to grind daily. He felt
like a headless chicken, stumbling around in the glass enclosure without direction.
He was not the only one feeling lost.
Guinevere looked at his figure and felt empty in her heart. The feeling of impending loss tormented her.
She could not sit still anymore. She stumbled towards him and hugged his waist from behind. “Did I do
something wrong? Can you tell me directly? Don’t punish me like this, please…”
This time, Weston did not push her away.
Instead, he turned around and stared at the woman in front of him.
His eyes were dark and deep. After a long silence, he finally said, “I was wrong.”
Stella had-Weston drop her off at the intersection. She did not want anyone to see him drive her to
work. When she arrived at her work building, she went to the parking lot first, and then walked towards
the elevator. Unexpectedly, a figure suddenly appeared at the corner without warning. She was so
shocked that she took a few steps back until a familiar voice came. “Sis, it’s me.” Stella let out a sigh of
relief. She looked at Roger in front of her and became worried again. “Why are you here?” Roger
looked at her with flickering eyes. “I’m worried about you.” Justin had called him last night to explain the
situation. Even so, he was still worried. He did not want to sneak out in the middle of the night and
make Stella worry, so he waited for her here early in the morning. Justin promised that Stella would go
to work on time the next day, which was why he took his chance to meet her here. After hearing him
out, Stella’s face sank. “Are you stupid? Can’t you just call?”
She was furious. “Look at the time now. Don’t you have class? Why did you come to look for me? Are
you going to school or not?”
Roger said nothing, but his eyes suddenly grew red. He kept his head down and said, “I’m glad you’re
fine. I’m going to school now.”
After that, he turned to leave.
Stella watched him walk away and moved her lips. She took out her phone and finally realized it had
been turned off automatically last night when the battery died.
Startled, she hurriedly chased him.
“Roger!”
She pulled his wrist and called his name, but her words remained stuck in her breath.
Roger stopped and glanced at her. “I’ll go to school now…”
“I’m sorry,” Stella interrupted him and apologized softly. “I didn’t notice that my phone was turned off.”
Roger gave her a reassuring smile. “It’s okay. I’m glad you’re fine.”
Stella’s nose tingled as she looked at him carefully. Roger looked very haggard with his terrible dark
circles and pale face. There were obvious creases on his clothes. Perhaps, he did not sleep well last
night and came here wearing yesterday’s clothes.
“Don’t do this again. I’m your sister. I’ll definitely take care of myself.”
Roger nodded, “You can go to work first. I’ll see you after class.”
Stella checked the time. “If you take a taxi, you can make it to your first class in time. Remember to eat
breakfast.”
“Okay.”
