“Why won‘t you go in? Gwen has been making a fuss. She‘s been asking to see you since last night.
Can‘t you just go in and see her for once? Please?”
Weston did not say anything. His face was so cold with no trace of warmth.
Chris saw his coldness and sighed. “Anyway, she was also a victim…
“Please. I‘m begging you. You‘re about to get married to Ella anyway. I know the past can‘t hold you back
anymore, so just do me a favor and see her once, okay? She almost died yesterday...”
Weston suddenly gave him a somber look. It was as if he had read through all his thoughts.
Chris felt uncomfortable with Weston‘s gaze. He croaked,” Anyway, we have been friends with their
family for years... This time, she almost died.”
Weston remained silent. Chris saw his silence and said in pain,” I know you‘re upset with me, but are you
completely innocent?
“If you hadn‘t been so cruel to Gwen back then, this may not have happened!”
“This is the last time,” Weston cut him off. He did not want to hear Chris continuing his nonsense
anymore.
“From now on, I won‘t care about anything that has to do with them. If you‘re concerned with them, that‘s
your business.” After that, he walked past him and went into the mansion.
At the same time, in Roger‘s ward.
The medical officers had pushed Roger into the ward, but he was still unconscious. Stella stayed by his
side and kept an eye on him.
Fortunately, he was not in a terrible condition. He was just too angry and had lost control of his
emotions.
The doctor told her not to worry as he would wake up soon.
Stella saw his sleeping face and let out a sigh of relief.
“Sis...”
When Roger finally woke up, he opened his eyes slowly and looked at her.
Stella immediately sat up straight. “You‘re awake. Are you still feeling unwell?”
Roger frowned and felt a little headache. “Where am I..”
“You’re in the hospital. You almost had a seizure just now.”
Roger shook his head at her words. Then, he suddenly remembered something and sat up sharply.
“Where‘s Weston ?”
Stella pressed his shoulder. “He had something to do, so he went to deal with it.”
“Sis... I was serious earlier! I don‘t want you to marry him!”
Roger held her hand tightly. “Can you leave with me? Come with me!”
Stella breathed a sigh. “Let‘s not talk about this first. Tell me: How did you come back? Why can’t we find
your departure record?”
Roger stayed silent for a moment. After that, he said, “I saw our uncle.”
Stella paused for a moment and asked, “Michael?”
Her face sank. “What did he say to you?”
Roger fixed his gaze at her. All of sudden, waves of complicated emotions rushed to his heart.
He trembled a little. “Sis, I know everything...”
“What do you know?” Stella looked at him with doubt.
“I know that we‘re not blood–related...” Roger enunciated.
There was a long silence. It was so quiet that they could hear a pin drop.
After a long silence, Stella stood up suddenly with a grim look.” What are you talking about?!”
Roger took her hand and looked at her somberly. “Uncle Michael told me that I‘m not Mom and Dad‘s
biological child... Is that true?”
“Don‘t listen to his nonsense!”
Stella‘s first reaction was to refute him. However, she was shaken by his words. “Michael has nothing to
do with us anymore. Don’t believe him!”
Even so, Stella and Roger had been siblings for years. Roger immediately understood what Stella‘s
reaction meant. “What he said is true... isn‘t it?”
Stella was speechless and unable to say a word.
