    Chapter 1416


    If she was right, Weston had tied himself up again.


    Ste stood in the doorway, her hand on the wall, not daring to take that step even after a good bout of


    mental preparation.


    It was unclear how much time had gone by before she knocked on the door.


    “Bang!” Something was smashed inside the room. It hit the door and fell to the ground, and broke.


    “I told you to get lost! Can’t you understand?”


    Ste took a deep breath and said to the person inside, “It’s me.”


    In an instant, the voice inside subsided.


    She did not know how long it took, so long that Ste thought she should knock on the door again when


    Weston’s raspy voice rang from inside.


    “What are you doing here?”


    She let out an unintentional chuckle. “What do you think I’m doing here?”


    There was no answer.


    She heard dragging footstepsing in the direction of the door and the sound of chains scraping on


    the floor.


    Her breathing became a little slower as she waited for him to reach the door.


    The sound of chains nking came to an abrupt end, seemingly stopping at that


    spot.


    She frowned. “What’s wrong?”


    His silence continued, and the nking instantly stopped.


    She suddenly wondered if his movement was restricted, and she thought of thest time she saw him


    inside that dimly lit room, chained up inside a steel cage where he could not move more than a few


    steps.


    She put her hand on the doorknob. “Where is the key?”


    He did not say a word, so she pped hard on the door at once. “I am asking you where the key is.”


    Still, he didn’t answer.


    She took a deep breath. “You don’t want to tell me, do you? Alright, I have another way to get it.”


    She went to Ben and asked, “What the hell is going on with Weston? Why did he lock himself in his room


    again?”


    Seeing hering over, Ben breathed a sigh of relief and said with some concern, Mr. Ford ordered that


    no one can let him out now…”


    “He’s nuts. Now that he’s acting crazy, are you about to go crazy with him?”


    She looked at Ben in disbelief. “Ben, I thought you were a sensible man.”


    Ben was embarrassed.


    Even though he knew it, he could not stop Weston from doing what he wanted!


    He was just an employee.


    “Mr. Ford is in an extreme mental state. If I don’t follow his order, he won’t be able to resist going to


    you…”


    “Then just let hime.”


    She said helplessly, “It’s better than him locking himself up! Look at him now. Does he look like a normal


    person?”


    “But…”


    He did not know what to say.


    Weston was just worried that he would bring trouble to Ste if he went back to her. This was why he tied


    himself up in this ce.


    But now that Ste said so, Ben felt she was not so heartless to Weston.


    Ultimately, he took the liberty of giving the key to Ste. “If Mr. Ford mes me…‘


    “Don’t worry. If he does, tell him to me me instead.”


    “Thank you, Ben,” she interrupted.

    “You don’t have to.”


    Ben hurriedly shook his head and sighed. “I don’t want to see Mr. Ford continue like this. I hope this time


    he can recover.”
