Chapter 46
The driver wouldn’t stop the car unless the order came from Dillon.
Noticing that he’d stayed quiet, Estelle rolled down her window.
“If you don’t stop the car, I’ll jump.”
His expression turned ice cold as he looked at her like she was already a corpse. It was like he
dared her to do it.
Reading his expression, she fluttered her eyes with determination and moved fast. Both her hands were already on the window frame.
Before she could jump, he said, “Stop the car.”
He tugged at his tie in frustration, his gaze turning cold and sharp.
“If you want to die, don’t do it in my car.”
As he said that, the car came to a halt.
She flung the door open and got out.
Coincidentally, a taxi passed by. She flagged it down and got in without hesitation.
Everything happened so quickly that he didn’t even have time to react. She was gone.
The driver panicked and turned to him.
“Mr. Waverly, are we heading back or going to the company?”
Dillon leaned back and rested his head, rubbing his forehead in exhaustion.
“Let’s go back.”
He couldn’t believe he’d set all his work aside just to accompany her to visit the cemetery. And
in the end, she clearly didn’t need his gesture.
He cursed under his breath. After all those years of being laughed at because of her, it was
foolish to pity her now.
When he got back to the villa, he was about to head up the stairs when he saw Baxter sitting on
the sofa.
Baxter noticed him right away. He stood up and looked toward the door.
When no one else appeared, he frowned in disappointment.
“Didn’t you want me to take a look at Estelle’s allergies? Where is she?”
Dillon’s expression turned cold. It was true that he wanted to figure out what was causing her

allergies. Out of goodwill, he’d even asked Baxter to come take a look.
But now, that goodwill felt pointless.
He gave Baxter a sharp look: “Are you that bored?
Baxter’s eyes widened.
“Dill, you’re the one who asked me to come check on your wife. Why are you coming at me now?”
As he spoke, something seemed to click, and he let out a cryptic laugh.
“Oh, I get it. You pissed her off, and she dumped you?”
Dillon’s face darkened at his noisy friend’s assumption.
Seeing his reaction, Baxter laughed even harder. He dropped to the floor, holding his stomach, laughing like it was the funniest thing he’d heard all year.
When he was finally satisfied, he stood up and faced Dillon.
“You ran into the Sawfords at the cemetery, didn’t you?”
Dillon pursed his lips and refused to reply.
“Let me guess. You sided with Alison again?”
He was caught off guard by the strange question
“If Estelle really hurt Alison, why would I help her instead of Alison?”
Baxter snorted. No wonder Dillon had no one. He let out a long sigh.
“Estelle must have loved you to death back then.
That same frustration from the car came rushing back.
He walked over and sat down, keeping his cold gaze on Baxter.
“What should I do?”
“Why the sudden change of heart? Are you trying to make up with Estelle?” Baxter asked with clear curiosity.
Dillon frowned.
After a pause, he said, “Of course not. The cancer treatment drug will help raise Waverly Group’s stock price.”
Baxter went silent.
“She was gone for five years. The pressure on me is huge now that she’s back.

“Shouldn’t she help carry some of that weight?”
After hearing such a ridiculous statement, Baxter
“Tsk. I think the two of you should just get divor
