Chapter 1500 - 1490: You Are the Woman I Love Most

Ever since entering the red wine estate, Constantine Stewart’s face has been shrouded in a dark color, his lazy phoenix eyes drooping, his brows and eyes revealing a bit of chaos and impatience.

Chloe Winston saw his displeased expression, ready to leave at any moment, she couldn’t continue chatting with the Countess and grabbed his wrist, saying softly, "Since we’re here, let’s have dinner."

With that, her big black eyes looked at him somewhat pitifully.

Constantine Stewart saw her rare obedience and cuteness, like a fluffy little lion waiting for him to pet, he restrained the impulse to touch her head and pulled her aside to seek benefits.

"You called me here just to have dinner with her?" Constantine Stewart asked gloomily, his brow furrowed.

Chloe Winston bit her lip, unsure how to persuade him, frantically thinking of solutions while tightly holding his wrist, stammering, "Madam actually invited me for dinner, but I thought you eating alone at home would be lonely, so I called you along."

Seeing her nervous little appearance, Constantine Stewart’s gaze deepened involuntarily, leaning closer to her, he said in a low voice, "Chloe, are you concerned about me? Afraid I’d be lonely eating alone?"

Chloe Winston’s lips twitched slightly, unable to refute, she was just trying to find an excuse.

"Will you stay for dinner then?" Chloe Winston tugged at his sleeve, choosing not to answer.

"My mother is the woman I hate most in this lifetime, and you are the woman I love most." The man’s unexpected admission was like a dormant ancient beast, hungry, yet maintaining elegant posture, he said hoarsely, "You know, I can’t refuse any request you make, just having dinner with her, unless."

"Unless what?" Chloe Winston’s cheeks flushed, pretending not to hear his first sentence. What most loved woman, sometimes men are terrifying even with honeyed words.

Constantine Stewart was silent for a moment, then glanced at his biological mother waiting in the distance and the owner of the wine estate, leaning close to her ear, he said hoarsely, "Unless you try to accept me, I’ll also try to accept my biological mother."

This was a fair trade.

His mother hurt him, he hurt Chloe, if Chloe could accept him again, he wouldn’t mind maintaining superficial harmony with his biological mother, it just depended on how deep Chloe Winston’s mediation could go.

Chloe Winston was suddenly at a loss for words, saying, "Why don’t you start by trying to have dinner?"

Constantine Stewart lowered his eyes steadily looking at her fair flushed little face, saying, "Okay."

Once the trade started, he wouldn’t allow her to renege.

The atmosphere at the dinner party was awkward, although the attendees were all socially adept, adept at navigating complex situations, faced with Constantine Stewart’s cold, indifferent poker face, it felt like internal injury after a meal.

After dinner, Constantine Stewart chatted with the estate’s owner, Chloe Winston was also pulled into the garden by the Countess.

"Thank you, Chloe." The Countess stood under the garden wall lamp, her eyes a bit red, although Constantine Stewart hadn’t spoken to her all night, the Countess was still very satisfied, it was probably the only meal she’d had with her son in over twenty years.

"You’re welcome." Chloe Winston smiled slightly.

"In a few days, I have to return to Paris, staying in the Imperial City too long worries my husband." The Countess said with a smile.

"Returning to Paris?"

The Countess nodded, being a smart woman, she understood the principle of moderation, her stay in the Imperial City had been too long, it was time to return, the improvement of the mother-son relationship must be gradual, not rushed.

"Before leaving, I’d like to invite you to shop and buy some Imperial City souvenirs, it won’t take much of your time, shopping at four or five in the afternoon, then have dinner together?" The Countess smiled at her, growing increasingly fond of her, this girl was truly kind-hearted and hardworking, most importantly, her son had been unmanageable for years, if it hadn’t been for Chloe Winston, how could she have had the chance to dine together. Before leaving, she wanted to buy the girl more things.

"Sure, tomorrow afternoon, I’ll speak with the director." Chloe Winston nodded and smiled, "There are plenty of Imperial City specialties, I’ll take you to shop then."

"Okay." The Countess nodded with a smile.

Before they said much, Constantine Stewart was already bidding farewell to the owner.

Chloe Winston also said goodbye, and the two left the estate one after the other, getting into the car.

Zheng Gu recently became the driver, ever since Chloe Winston was kidnapped, the Countess injured, Mr. Stewart’s face had been gloomy, Zheng Gu acted cautiously every day.

"Mr. Stewart, a message just came from the prison saying that the wealthy businessman who previously supported Luo Yiren is spending money to pull strings, possibly to get her out early." Zheng Gu reported without daring to breathe loudly.

Hearing this, Constantine Stewart remained expressionless, looked at Chloe Winston, and said, "Even with connections, she still needs to serve a year. Besides, being in that man’s hands is no better than prison."

Seeing this, Zheng Gu said no more, driving back to Fulham Road.

During this period, both had been living in the private residence on Fulham Road.

"Why did you say that earlier?" Chloe Winston endured all the way and asked upon arriving at Fulham Road.

"Luo Yiren’s previous benefactor has some peculiar hobbies. Besides, his wife almost disfigured Luo Yiren before, plus Luo Yiren’s previous actions weren’t honorable, falling into the hands of this couple is no different from imprisonment." Constantine Stewart raised his eyes lightly and said, "Chloe, is your heart softening?"

Chloe Winston shook her head, said nothing.

"This woman won’t appear in your life anymore." Constantine Stewart reached out to touch her head, his long, strong fingers gently stroking her delicate earlobe, his gaze darkening. It was him who informed her financier, whether she served two years in prison, or not in the Imperial City, he wanted this woman completely out of Chloe’s life.

All bad, dark things shouldn’t remain in Chloe’s world.

Chloe Winston had some feelings about Luo Yiren’s matter, returning to the bedroom in the evening, somewhat listless, she talked about Luo Yiren’s situation in the WeChat group.

The group had only a few people, Wendy Starling, Desmond Wood, Finnian, and Charles Taylor, bonded by a friendship from a variety show, preserved as a revolutionary camaraderie, with Finnian being pulled in by Desmond Wood’s persistence.

Charles Taylor had been silent for a while since ending the contract lover relationship with Chloe Winston but still cared for her as a friend.

"That woman brought it upon herself, what are you sighing for? If it weren’t for your good luck, you might have died." Wendy Starling, who’d always been at odds with Luo Yiren, seeing her do many things that defied belief and then kidnapping and injuring people, immediately loathed that woman intensely.
