“Guinevere seems to have recognized you...”
It was just a mask. The mask would not change the familiar feeling.
Guinevere had been with Weston for years. How could she not suspect anything ? However, Weston
seemed unbothered. He did not panic and did not even care if Guinevere found out.
He held Stella
in his arms and moved slowly. “Don‘t think about anyone irrelevant. Let‘s finish our dance.”
He did not plan to be this impulsive. However, when he saw Stella was
going to give Bradley her hand, he finally realized his possessiveness toward her.
He could not
stand seeing Stella dance with another man. All of her belonged to him. He wanted to be the only one i
n her eyes and heart.
She must focus her eyes on him only. She must not look at anyone
else. He would not allow her to look at anything but him, regardless of gender, human, or object.
He wanted her world to be all about him. He did not know when he had become so sick. By the time
he realized, there was no way to save himself.
He kept tightening his force on Stella‘s waist until it hurt her. “ Let me go...”
Their dance steps were disrupted.
Weston relaxed his grip a little. “Sorry,” he said.
After a short dance, he took her in his arms and slowly led her to a quiet corner with no one else
around. He rubbed her ears and asked affectionately, “Did you miss me?”
Stella said, “I‘ve just separated from you for a short while...”
“Is that so?” He raised his hand and tucked her hair behind her ear. “I thought you had been gone for a
long time. Before you left, I told you to tell me your troubles. I thought we were
apart for too long that you obviously forgot about that...”
Stella moved her mouth a little and wanted to say something. In the end, she remained silent and only l
ooked around. The people around them were looking at her.
Everyone
was just watching when Yates came over to invite Stella. However, their gaze changed when Bradley
came over to ask her to dance.
Yates and Bradley had a good reputation in the circle, especially Yates.
For years, Yates had been known as the good guy in the business. Everyone that cooperated with
him was amazed. Besides, he was never involved in any negative scandals or exposure.
When a good man like him went over to Stella, people assumed that he was
helping her. However, when people like Bradley reached out to Stella, they started looking at Stella
in a different light.
Bradley was a recognized genius in the circle. Even an actress of Guinevere’s status would not
necessarily gain his respect. He
had high emotional intelligence and would never choose to please the strong and bully the weak. A
man like him was willing to help Stella. This meant there must be something special about her.
In addition, Bradley was the one who brought Stella over. Many began to ask about Stella from the
actors in the same cast.
For example, the man who invited Angelina for a dance lowered his head and
said, “You‘re quite familiar to Ella in the crew. What‘s her relationship with Bradley...”
Angelina
let go of him at once. “What do you mean? Do you doubt their relationship?” Her tone was clearly
unhappy.
Although she was not very close to Stella, she considered Stella a friend.
Angelina was a righteous person.
