Chapter 1131


    Chapter 1131


    Guinevere could not help but wonder if she’d ever rece Ste in Weston’s heart someday.


    But she was dead now anyway, so what would be next if she could never win over her? Guinevere still


    had a long future ahead. She was sure that in the end, Weston’s heart, body, and soul would eventually


    belong to her.


    Hence, she was in no hurry.


    “Don’t worry about it, Mom, Dad. Xavier is still a Ford, after all. If something serious happens to the


    project, I’m sure Weston woulde in and help him.”


    “That would be best, of course. Otherwise…”


    Mr. Cohen nced coldly at Guinevere and said, Otherwise, we’ll have to consider withdrawing our


    cooperation with the Ford family.”


    ((


    It was Weston Ford who had been overseeing their coborative projects with Ford Corporation. Now


    that Weston wasn’t at thepany, there was no guarantee that Xavier Ford would be able to take over


    all of Weston’s roles effectively.


    Warren Ford had personally gone to Stardust Mansion countless times, but each time, he was barred


    from entry


    without exception. The only exnation he ever got was, “Mr. Ford is not epting any visitors. He will


    not see anyone.”


    Warren Ford had just stepped out of the car when he received the same excuse again.


    He was so enraged that he flung his cane to the ground, snapping, “Is he going to forsake the whole


    company just for one woman?! He hasn’t stepped out of this house for the entire week! What on earth is


    he thinking?!”


    “I’m truly sorry, Mr. Warren. We’ve done all we could to persuade him, but it was all futile…”


    Ben was looking utterly exhausted. His bloodshot eyes had thick red veins in them.


    It had already been a week since Ste’s death. No matter what happened, her body had to be buried


    soon.


    Yet Weston would not listen to anyone’s pleas or advice. To this day, he still lived with Ste’s corpse as


    if she was still alive.


    In order to slow down the rate of decay, he hired the most renowned experts to preserve her body in a


    state as close to its original as possible.


    All the projects at thepany had now been handed over to Xavier Ford. Right now, there was only


    one thing on Weston’s mind—to build a new hospital not far away from Stardust Mansion with the sole


    purpose of keeping


    Ste in apletely sterile ce where her body would


    never rot.


    Even Ben thought he had gone raving mad when he heard it.


    Yet Weston simply would not listen to anyone now. He would spend his days doing nothing but talk to


    Ste’s


    corpse.


    Ben was totally at a loss for what to do.


    “If I’d known this would happen,” Warren Ford said, “I would’ve dealt with Ste Sealey a lot sooner so


    Weston wouldn’t turn out to be a brainless zombie like he is now! Everyone’sughing at him!”


    “I don’t think you should say that, Mr. Chairman. To tell you the truth, I don’t think Mrs. Ford had anything


    to do with Zachary Ford’s death…”


    “But the evidence speaks for itself!” barked Warren Ford furiously. “Even now, you’re still making excuses


    for that woman? You’re no different from your boss! You’ve all beenpletely blindsided by that witch!”


    Ben said nothing in reply.


    Although Warren Ford lost his temper, Weston was still unwilling toe out and meet him, leaving him


    with little choice but to go home.


    Not only was Weston’s family unable to see her, but even Ste’s friends couldn’t see her either. Bradley


    Lane,


    Yvonne, and Angelina had been calling Ben so many times that his phone almost exploded.


    Yet Weston still refused to relent, harshly disallowing anyone from even taking a glimpse of Ste.


    Yvonne had the most intense reaction. But, unfortunately, it was her husband Lucas who had to bear the


    brunt of her anger.


    “What kind of a lunatic do you think Weston Ford is?” she asked him. “She’s already dead! Why would he


    keep her body and refuse to bury her? Can’t he just let her friends pay theirst respects to her?”

    As she spoke, she got so agitated that she burst into tears again.


    “I knew nothing good woulde of her being with Weston Ford!” she continued. “Two years ago, she


    lost her only child because of him, and now, this happened! Is Weston Ford cursed, or is he her nemesis


    who wouldn’t stop harming her even though she’s dead?!”


    She had put it so terribly that Lucas massaged his temples, feeling deeply sorry about the whole matter.


    “It’s all happened now,” he reminded her. “You’re not helping anyone by saying all these things. Just give


    him a little more time. I’m sure he’ll eventually pull through this.”
