Chapter 1315


    Chapter 1315


    Ste had indeed told him that if he gave her the entirety of Ford Corporation, she would get back


    together with him…


    Realizing this, her countenance drastically changed.


    She did not mean what she said. Besides, it should have been obvious that she was only joking and that


    she was only giving him a hard time to make him give up on her.


    Who would have thought that Weston would take her so seriously?


    Why did none of Ford Corporation’s execs stop him when he called Tina Hampton over to discuss the


    transferral of property ownership to Ste?


    How could he be so impulsive?!


    Seeing Ste’s shocked face, Tina knew that Weston must’ve not had herplete agreement before he


    did this. She heaved a sigh before telling her, “Mr. Ford had given the order to transfer everything to you,


    so why don’t we just move on with the process…?”


    After all, this matter would greatly benefit Ste anyway,


    so regardless of the grievances between Weston and Ste, Tina was sure that Ste could have no


    reason to reject the deal.


    But Ste ended up shaking her head in refusal without even thinking about it.


    “No, I never agreed to this. Just because he wants to give it to me doesn’t mean that I have to ept it.


    No, I don’t want any of this.”


    “But Mr Ford has given me the orders, and he said that this is your own request…”


    “It was my request, but I didn’t think that he would to it. I was only trying to make him give up on me.”


    agree


    “Even so,” Tina frowned, “epting it won’t do you any harm, will it? In fact, it would only bring you


    incredible benefits. You must realize how many people would do anything to get Weston Ford’s


    shares…”


    “I really have to hand it to you,” Henry suddenly interrupted her before she could finish her sentence,


    striding into the room suddenly and standing over Ste, peering down at her as he added, “Do you


    know how hard Xavier Ford and all those other directors fought to get the shares Weston owns? Yet


    each and every one of them failed. Meanwhile, all you had to do was say a few words and he instantly


    gave it all up to you…”


    He spoke as if she had done something utterly unforgivable.


    “Then go and tell him that I never wanted Ford Corporation, and that I never meant what I said,” Ste


    interrupted.


    “Do you think he’ll stop just because you say you didn’t mean it? Weston has always been a serious


    man, you know. Since you’ve already made the request, he would stop at nothing to deliver you your


    desire.”


    “Is there something seriously wrong with him?” Ste asked, clenching her fists tightly. “You’ve been his


    best friend all his life. Can’t you persuade him?”


    “If I could persuade him,” he replied, “I would’ve persuaded him to be with another woman in the past


    three years. I wouldn’t have just sat idly, watching his life turn into hell because of you. Did you know that


    you almost killed him?”


    “What are you talking about?”


    Henry rubbed his forehead in exasperation, then turned to Tina and told her, “I think you’d better go back


    for now. She probably wouldn’t sign the documents today.”


    “Sure,” replied Tina with impatience written all over her face, but she still managed to suppress her


    emotions and maintain a professional attitude. “In that case, I’ll go back and report Mr Ford about what


    happened and then we’ll see what we should do next.”


    After that, she turned and left.


    Henry closed the door and asked Ste, “Do you have any idea what Weston’s life was like in those


    three years when you were dead?”


    “I don’t know,” Ste gripped at her nket, looking visibly irritable and exasperated, “and I don’t want to


    know…”


    The more annoyed she looked, the more Henry wanted to tell her, so he continued, “In those three years,


    at first he simply couldn’t face the fact that you were dead, and he even wanted to die with you. I once


    found him locked inside the house with all the gas hobs turned on… I rushed him to the hospital and they


    managed to save his life, but after that I noticed that he bought bottles of sleeping pills, so we had to


    have his stomach flushed, but thenter we found him cutting his wrist in the bathroom


    As he spoke, his eyes began to redden. He continued, “Do you know what eventually stopped him in the


    end? It was when a priest told him thatmitting suicide is a terrible sin. If he killed himself, he would


    never be able to see you again even in the afterlife. That scared him straight.”


    “He’s never been religious,” Henry added. “But he was terrified that he might never see you again after


    his death … From then on, he started chain smoking and drinking heavily while upying himself with


    work around the clock, all in the hope that he might destroy his health and see you sooner.”N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.
