Weston came into the living room and glanced at the sofa.“Stella?”Stella was nowhere to be found. Joan was out working, so the house was empty. Weston furrowed his brow as a dull feeling of restlessness surged through him.Weston searched the bedroom and did not find Stella. Then, he went to the back garden to look. There was still no one in sight.Weston’s face sank instantly.He couldn’t stand it any longer, but he couldn’t see her when he came home. Then, just as he was about to call her, soft footsteps came from behind him.Weston turned around and saw Stella appear behind him, holding a handful of thorny noses. Her face was covered in dirt, and her hair was disheveled. Her white nightgown had a few cuts and holes.Weston moved his gaze down and stopped at her pale hands. The thorns of the rose had pierced her skin, leaving spots of blood.She just stood there, looking at him but not saying a word.Black hair and red roses… Stella’s face was so pale that she looked like

Stella’s tone seemed a little agitated. Sensing she was losing control, she took a deep breath to calm down.“A lot has happened in the last few days… Weston, I want to know... I want to know that he’s safe and alive, so I can…”“He’s in Compassvale,” Weston interrupted her. Weston’s eyes were dark, more intense than the night. Only her shadow reflected off of his eyes. Turbulent emotions flowed in them, like dark currents under the calm sea.“He’s doing well. You don’t have to worry.”Stella tried to suppress the urge to cry and dropped her head. She knew Weston would not tell her the truth, but her heart pounded heavily and hurt whenever she heard him lie with her own ears.She wanted to grab him by the collar and question him for lying to her. Why?He had clearly forced Roger to death, but he could still lie to her. Was he simply heartless?“Okay, I know.” Stella did her best to suppress the surging emotions in her heart. She tried to sound as calm as possible. “I’m relieve

Hayden rarely felt incredibly frustrated and irritated, unable to get his mind off it no matter how he tried.After flipping through the medical records, he tossed them aside again and closed his eyes. His emotions were still in turmoil.It would be hard for a doctor to heal himself.A psychiatrist was human too. They might have psychological problems as well. However, Hayden was well aware of his psychological state, and he attempted to ease his thoughts. He would not allow himself to fall into the same emotional distress as other mortals.Despite that, it seemed like he had inevitably descended into a downward spiral. The few short days he spent counseling Stella had turned into a nightmare for him.He opened Stella’s medical records, which documented her emotional state.Hayden looked at it over and over again. It was as if Stella was standing in front of him and talking to him.He kept drawing a picture of Stella alive in his mind. Sometimes, they wouldn’t just talk about he

The news had spread throughout Ahn City. Naturally, everyone was expecting Weston’s reaction. Weston, however, seemed like he wasn’t taking the matter seriously. It had been days now since he showed himself, and nobody knew where he had gone.At the same time, Warren released the big news, claiming that they had found a witness that could prove Stella had poisoned Zachary.This was bad news for Stella. The evidence was already pointing at her, the sudden appearance of an eyewitness only made matters worse. With all the evidence at hand, it seemed everyone was simply waiting for her to be convicted.Tina was already very busy, and when she heard the news, she grunted and shoved the stack of documents in front of her.“My head hurts…”Tina had worked hard on the case for so many days and even neglected Bryce because of this.The other lawyers at her firm did not dare to accept the case or even help her. Not wanting to get involved in Warren and Weston’s war, they refused to take an

Justin helped Bryce with his homework patiently. Bryce initially listened to Justin’s explanation, but he slowly got distracted.As a teacher, Justin could easily sense Bryce’s distraction. He tapped his finger on his son’s head to get his attention.“Hey. Why are you getting distracted? Your exams are coming soon. Don’t divide your attention elsewhere.”“I know...”Bryce took the pen and doodled on the paper. He suddenly looked up at Justin and asked, “Dad, will you and Mom remarry?”Justin froze for a moment, dumbfounded, seemingly taken aback by the question.After a short moment, Justin asked Bryce, “Why the sudden question?”Bryce shook his head. “I just miss the old days. We were always a family of three…”Justin stopped talking and looked at him steadily. “I thought you’d gotten used to it after all these years.”Bryce bristled, “Are there any kids that’ll get used to their parents’ divorce?”Justin laughed. “You’re right.”He patted his head and asked, “Are you unhap
