Mr. Ford Is Jealous by Boat of Peaches Chapter 1016
Chapter 1016 When she finished talking, she saw that his face had tensed, and he was exuding
the air of a man who had been disparaged andbelittled.
"It must be really nerve - racking when you're trying to keep a secret from someone ...
unless you do something about it yourself, right?" Stella replied with a smile.
"You must be worried sick every time I contacted Aunt Diana, fearing I'd bring up your past sins
toher.
It must be hard to bear, huh, knowing that your secret may be exposed any time, that you'll
never be at peace for the rest of your life..."
The longershe spoke, the darker Michael's face turned...
and that was when he suddenly grabbed her wrist and yelled, "We need to talk!" When Ben saw
this, he immediately headed toward themwith his brows frowning deeply.
"Just wait for me here," Stella told Ben.
"I'm going to talk to him for a while." "I can't do that," Ben refused.
"I must make sure you're safe, Mrs.Ford!"
"You can't be serious!" Michael snorted.

enemies, have you? No, that's not
possible ! With your gentle nature, who else apart from your love rival would ever want to harm you?" "That's none
of your business," she interrupted him." Let's find a quiet place to talk." "You can watch over me from afar," she
told Ben.
"If you see any sign of things going wrong, step in right away.
I won't be hindering you from doing your job, will I?"
Ben considered it for a few seconds before he finally nodded.
"Please call for me as soon as you're in trouble, Mrs.
Ford!" "Okay." They were both at the end of a hallway.
Michael glanced at the time and commented, "You're doing real well now, aren't you? Weston Ford practically treats
youlike his most precious prized possession.
He even has a bodyguard follow you everywhere!" He peered at Ben, standing not so far away, and shrugged ,
adding, “I remember him well.
He’s Weston Ford's highly capable personal assistant.
He's far more valuable than your average employee.
Perhaps Weston Ford is the only man who would assign an assistant of such caliber as his wife’s bodyguard.
Isn't he worried that he'll waste his assistant's talents with you?" "That's also none of your business," Stella frowned.
"It has nothing at all to do with you." Michael looked away casually.
"I just think that since you've gotten yourself such a powerful man to rely on, twisting your arm wouldn't be such an
easy taskanymore, right?" He kept that phony smile plastered on his face, concealing his sinister intentions under a
thin veil, though the only thing Stella was really focused on was the laboratory test results in his hand.
"Why did you come to the hospital?" she asked.
"Any health problems? Or is Aunt Diana..." "She's pregnant," he announced while waving the test results around.
Right after he spoke, he noticed Stella's expressions change for a millisecond, and he took small delight in it.
"Surely you must be happy for her, mustn't you?" Stella said nothing, but her face betrayed her mixed feelings.
"I know," Michael sighed.
"You want to tell her the truth ...
But whatever happened in the past should be left in the past.
We all have to move forward, Stella.
Look at you and Weston.
You've gone through many hurdles.
Even your engagement party turned into such a scandal.
But despite all that, you still had a wedding and got married in the
end, didn'tyou? "Everyone made stupid mistakes when they were young," he confessed
earnestly.

I cut all contact with those women a long time ago.
If you tell her what I did back then, all that would achieve would be to bring her pain and
suffering..."
Stella was still in a daze,thinking about the news that Diana was pregnant.
"How far along is she?" she asked frankly.
Michael was taken aback by the question for a while but soon regained composure , and his
expression softenedsignificantly.
"Only two months," he replied in a gentle voice.
"She was bewildered herself.
She thought there was something wrong with her because her period had been erratic..." When
the topic turned to his unborn baby, the man’s eyes shone with genuinetenderness, which was
rare.
Even his smile looked sincere , unlike the doctored ones he would usually display.
"That's enough," Stella stopped him, feeling confused herself.
"I will tell her the truth no matter what..." She had been meaning to tell Dianaabout it but,
having been hit with crisis after crisis lately, simply couldn't find the right time to do so.
