Chapter 20 

She tried her best to open her eyes a little, hoping to see her surroundings.

But then, she heard a very familiar voice.

"You don’t need me to teach you what to do after this, right?"

"I understand! We’ve already contacted Mr.Ford to come with the ransom money.Then, we’ll have him choose between you two, and the remaining one will be taken away as our hostage!"

Was that… Guinevere’s voice? Stella’s body went cold.She thought she had heard wrong.

"Mr.Ford will surely choose you.As for this woman… We’ll take her to a secluded place as per our original agreement, and remove the child inside her…"

Then, the man suddenly paused before asking carefully, "Ms.Cohen, what if Mr.Ford doesn’t choose you…"

"Do you think that’s possible?"

A chuckle interrupted the man, and Guinevere slowly made her way over.

"I have at least that much confidence, but… I changed my mind."

She went over to Stella and looked at her unconscious face.

Suddenly, she gripped Stella’s chin with her sharp nails and said viciously, "I hadn’t wanted to go to such extremes at first, but how dare she get pregnant with Weston’s child?!"

Jealousy appeared in Guinevere’s eyes as her grip tightened.

She had had enough of Weston’s recent indifference toward her.

Just the thought of Stella being married to Weston before made her want to shred this woman to bits! Even if she and Weston had already broken up at the time… She had always assumed that Weston would try to get back with her! She hadn’t expected him to suddenly marry a random woman.

Guinevere hadn’t planned to give Stella trouble.

A woman like Stella didn’t seem like a threat to her, but to think Stella was pregnant with Weston’s child! If she hadn’t been wary when she suddenly saw Stella gag that day, Stella might have actually deceived her! "Did you think you could regain your status by being pregnant with his child?"

Stella’s face turned pale and she willed herself not to tremble.
