Chapter 738
His contempt and agitation had reached a breaking point.
Daisy noticed that something was wrong. “Why are you so angry?”
She furrowed her brows and surveyed him.
Xavier snapped back to attention and rubbed in between his brows. “Nothing, I just don’t fancy being
talked back to like that…”
“When did you get so emotionally affected?” Daisy chuckled as she teased. “It’s not like you at all.”
Xavier’s face darkened. “Daisy, I’m serious about you, but it doesn’t mean you can test my
boundaries.”
Daisy’s face froze. “How am I testing your boundaries?”
“Whatever it is…” Xavier retracted his gaze. “I don’t like paranoid women.”
In the office.
Zeta heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at E.“ Thank you for helping me out just now.”
Ste shook her head. “I wasn’t much help… it’s just that I can tell Xavier probably brought Daisy along
to spite you.”
He was clearly here to kick up a fuss, but what she couldn’t figure out was his objective.
Zeta furrowed her brows. “He wouldn’t do something so meaningless.”
With that, she walked to her desk and shut her eyes, feeling a wave of fatigue wash over her. “I’m
nothing to him, and it’s just a waste of time for him to create trouble for me…”
Ste said, “It doesn’t really look like you’re nothing to him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t havee all the
way here to cause you trouble.”
Zeta shook her head. “Let’s stop talking about him.”
If he really cared for her a tad bit, he wouldn’t have remained unmoved during all those years when she
pursued him relentlessly.
Just when she thought that things were finallying to fruition between them, he broke off their
engagement without rhyme or reason.
He even showed Daisy off to the world, embarrassing her thoroughly and trampling viciously on
whatever was left of her pride.
From whichever angle she looked, it simply felt like he never cared about her.
Ste didn’t find herself in a position toment on their rtionship , so she decided to take her leave
with medicine in hand.
By the time she left, the day wasing to an end.
Wendy texted her for help to buy some desserts from a specific shop back home.
Ste felt put on the spot.
She didn’t want to return to the Ford Mansion. Even if she didn’t return to Stardust Mansion, she could
return to the apartment Weston had brought her to today.

However, Wendy called her the next moment and added more things she needed Ste’s help to buy
back home.
Ste sighed and recalled what Old Mr. Ford reminded her previously and eded to Wendy’s
requests.
The moment she stepped into the Ford Mansion carrying bags filled with things, she spotted Guinevere
in the mansion from afar.
After a whole day of being with Zack, she had be a lot more familiar with him.
Wendy was d to have some time off her hands and a break from carrying the child. She came to the
door to receive Ste.
“You’re back?”
She whispered in her ear, “Don’t mind her. They just called off their engagement yesterday, and she’s
probably still angry inside. She probably won’t be returning home anytime soon.”
Ste understood what she meant and kept her silence.
Wendy sighed as she patted the back of Ste’s hand.“
It’ll be tough on you the next few days.” “Don’t worry,” Ste assured her.
She put down the bags of things she bought and said, “ It’s gettingte. I need to be on my way.”
Guinevere stood up and said, “Going off already? Why don’t youe in and have a seat?”
She spoke with the authority of the mistress of the house.
Wendy furrowed her brows.
Guinevere smiled. “It’s about time for dinner. Why don’t you stay for dinner before leaving?”
Ste forced a smile and nced past her emotionlessly. Shepletely ignored Guinevere and
looked at Wendy instead. “I’ll head off first?”
“Stay safe along the way.”
“I will.”
