Chapter 1405

Stella gave Warren Ford a brief glance before telling him, “We’ve said all there is to say the last time we met. I don’t think there’s any more need for us to talk.”

Warren’s eyes trembled. He looked as if he had something to say, yet he somehow couldn’t.

Meanwhile, Elias and Emma could not help but poke their heads out of the car with curiosity when the old man who had been coming to see them these past few days called out their mother’s name. They had anticipated seeing their mother being happy now that she had finally come back, but for some reason, Elias sensed that something was wrong and felt the urge to get out of the car to be with his mother.

But before he could get out, Roger quickly stopped him.

“The adults are talking right now,” he told Elias. “You’re just a kid. You’ve got no business interrupting them.”

Elias said nothing in reply, but he was perceptive enough to know that his mother was in a bad mood, which made him anxious to get out of the car.

Emma sensed this too, and she kept looking out, watching her mother talking to the old man.

Warren had met them before and spoken briefly with them. Elias and Emma were his great–grandchildren, so he was kind and amiable with them, which meant that the children had a pretty good impression of him.

But at the same time, they could see that the old man did not get along well with their mother. They could keenly sense the tense interaction between Stella and Warren Ford.
