Chapter 780 The other man did not expect he would really do it and fell limp in fear.
“I-I’ll tell you!”
He said warily, “We know her. She gave us money to take that woman away.”
“You’re lying!” Guinevere rushed to him and shouted emotionally,“ You’re slandering me!” After saying that, she
looked at Weston again. “Weston, don’t believe them. I really didn’t do it. They’re slandering me!”
Weston looked at her indifferently. There was no warmth in his eyes at all. “If you don’t know them, why would they
slander you?”
Guinevere pressed her lips and was at a loss for words.“ You suspect me and think I’m targeting Ella?”
Weston pulled his collar. It was his habitual action when he was irritated. “It’s not a suspicion.”
He stared at her. “It’s a certainty.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGuinevere widened her eyes and laughed bitterly. “Since you have already declared me guilty, what else can I say?”
She suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the man’s wrist. With a choking voice, she said, “You’ve changed…
Weston, you wouldn’t have done this before. There is no evidence of anything, so why are you so eager to return a
verdict? Do you care about that woman that much?”
Weston shook off her hand. “Stay here until it is over.”
After saying that, he turned around and was ready to leave.
Guinevere called out to him. “Are you trying to place me under house arrest?”
All she got in response was the man’s leaving back view.
When Stella woke up, she found herself in an unfamiliar room.
She sat up with a jolt. Thinking that she was still in that dark basement, she subconsciously pulled the blanket off
herself and wanted to leave.
The next second, she fell into a warm embrace.
A low crisp voice came from above her head. “I’m here. Where are you going?” Stella was instantly relieved. Her
stiff body relaxed, and
she leaned on his arms. “I thought I…”
She did not finish what she had wanted to say and shut her mouth. When she surveyed her surroundings and found
that she was in a ward, her mind cleared up a bit.
Remembering what had happened earlier , Stella’s eyes darkened. She looked at Weston. “Thank you for saving
me.”
Weston turned on the lights, and the room was brightly lit.
He looked at her. “If you really want to thank me, then don’t say it.” She lay in the bed and closed her eyes with a
pained expression on her face. He frowned and sat beside her. He helped her up and asked, “What’s wrong? Are
you feeling unwell somewhere?” She shook her head and said, “I am just a bit dizzy.”
He massaged the back of her head. “You got hit with a stick here. There is some bruising, but luckily, there will not

She nodded.
Weston checked on her wound again. After making sure that the bandages were secure, he took her into his arms
again.
He rested his chin on her head and sighed. “Stella, do you know how long you’ve slept?” She did not wake up from
last night until the next afternoon.
He lifted her chin and made her look into his eyes. “Don’t run away from home again.”
“I wasn’t running away,” Stella frowned and said automatically.
She had really wanted to leave him, but she didn’t dare to say it.
After all, he had just saved her.

Weston knew what she wanted to say but he did not reply. He put his thumbs against her cheek and rubbed them
slowly. “How can I rest assured if you cannot even take care of yourself? Don’t ever act rashly again.”
