Mr. Ford Is Jealous Chapter 839

It was almost impossible not to get lost in those alluring eyes.

“With me by her side,” he asserted, “I will never let anyone harm her.”

Eventually, Michael had managed to persuade Diana to go home, albeit reluctantly.

As soon as they got into the car, Michael immediately asked her, “What did Stella tell you when you
guys were alone together?”

Diana had noticed earlier that Michael had been acting really weird lately. At first, she chalked it up to
him being overwhelmed with joy since finding out that their niece was alive after all. But now, it was
beginning to look like something fishy was going on

“Nothing in particular,” she told him. “We were just catching up.”

She paused before adding with a frown, “What’s up with you, anyway? Why do I have a feeling that
you’re unhappy for some reason?”

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized how improbable her conjecture was. She
might have been very close to Stella, but it was Michael who was related to her by blood, and he had
maintained a good relationship with his niece all along. They had seemed to be at odds with each other
for a while when Stella’s parents died, but it had only been a brief quarrel and nothing more. Diana
simply could not believe that her husband would be upset that his niece had returned.

But why was he acting so bizarrely now?

Seeing that she was beginning to suspect something, Michael turned gloomy. He sighed heavily and
pulled her into his arms.



“Diana,” he murmured, “you know that I love you, right?”

Diana was startled. She fell silent for a moment before bursting into laughter.

“Of course I know that!” she exclaimed, hugging him tightly.” Who else would you love if not your own
wife?”

“If someone comes to you with some lies about me to break us apart, who would you believe-them or
me?”

“You,” she answered without any hesitation. “Because you’re my husband. You’re the one I want to be
with for the rest of my life. Why would I trust anyone else over you?”

Michael smiled contentedly.

“You really are such a silly goose.” He held her close, his face a picture of tenderness. “but I just can’t
help but love you anyway.”

As soon as his face was hidden from his wife, the affectionate expressions on his face vanished
entirely.

He cursed Stella’s name under his breath. He must find a way to silence her forever, so she could
never expose his secrets to his wife.

The two of them met at a cafe. They sat across from each other. Michael was wearing a suit, looking as
if he was here for a business meeting.

Weston was sitting at a different table not too far away. He was willing to give them some space, but he
was still close enough to warn Michael not to get any ideas.



“You’ve found yourself a powerful protector indeed,” he commented with a smile that looked half
friendly and half mocking.

“Yes, I certainly did.” Stella smiled and played along. “You didn’t expect me to be a sitting duck,
helplessly waiting for your attack, did you?”

Though she was smiling, her eyes were piercingly cold. The smile on Michael’s face quickly dissipated.
He continued, “I know you haven’t told her about that… incident. What should I do to make you keep
that secret forever?”

Stella stirred her coffee nonchalantly and replied, “I have no idea what you’re talking about, Uncle
Michael. Which incident are you referring to?”

She was only taunting him, of course. She knew perfectly well that he was referring to the incident
where he cheated on his wife with her roommate.

“I don’t care if you don’t believe me,” Michael sneered with simmering rage, “but I have truly changed. It
happened so long ago, and I’ve now become a completely different man…”

Seeing that Stella was unconvinced , he decided to change his approach

“People screw up all the time when they’re young. Am I right? Besides, I haven’t done a single thing to
make Diana unhappy ever since then…”
