Stella pursed her lips for a few moments before answering, "The latter."

Archer tutted, "If your husband knows that his cheating can't even compare with your brother's fight,

how sad would he be."

Hearing Archer say so, Stella inevitably felt a bit guilty and retorted in a low voice, "Isn't... Isn't that

what you said, it's all hypothetical!"

Then she threatened, "Don't tell Clarence! You have to have professional ethics as a doctor!"

Archer raised his hand and made an OK sign perfunctorily. He went to the next question, "Which

makes you angrier: Your brother is expelled from school or your brother is taken into custody after

fighting?"

Stella looked at him and said in a calm tone "I think it is you who make me angrier."

Archer didn't know what to say to that.

Stella almost snapped, "Why do you have to take my brother for example? Has he ever offended you?"

Archer replied, "Isn't this to make your emotions stack up gradually? So I have to find something that

can really stimulate you. I can't just ask you whether the fight between two stray dogs downstairs or the

quarrel between uncle and aunt would make you more pissed, right?"

Stella hesitated. There's a point in what he said.

Stella frowned and thought for a moment, but she couldn't tell which would make her jump.

Archer continued, "If you can't pick one, imagine this. Your brother is expelled from school and taken to

the police station for fighting, and he may even be sentenced to jail."

And he added, "Take your time. How are you feeling now?"

Stella's temple couldn't help throbbing and she said, "Thanks to your question. I already want to beat

someone."

Archer handed her half of the oranges left in his hand, "Take your time. Eat this first."

After Stella swallowed the orange, Archer said slowly, "Next, our emotion test is going to the next level.

Are you ready?"

What the hell? Like this was not enough already!

Archer said, "If I tell you that, among your husband's affair and your brother's fighting, one is true and

the other is false. Which one sounds more acceptable to you?"

"Neither."

"Okay, okay, just hang in there for me. If these two happen at the same time, you are betrayed by your

husband and your best friend. Then your brother gets into prison for beating them, and he won't be out

for the next few years."

Maybe the gradual level-up method did work. Stella now could even think about that scene in complete

calmness. She just felt something stuck in her heart and bugging her.

At this time, Archer quickly said, "Well, I lied to you. Your husband didn't cheat, and your best friend

didn't betray you. The test is over."

This emotion test was really challenging.

But just when Stella breathed out and felt relieved, Archer continued, "But your brother is really in

detention at the police station now."

Stella's smile stiffened, "What do you mean?"

Archer raised his eyebrow, "It means... literally."

Due to the test just now, Stella can maintain a calm state of mind in the face of this, and she said, "Is

the test not over yet?"

But Archer looked serious and didn't mean to joke at all.

"It's over. Didn't I just say that one of the two hypotheses is true and the other is false."

Stella closed her eyes and slowly recalled what had happened in the past two days.

Yesterday afternoon, Daniel suddenly came to the studio to ask her for dinner, and then Sherry called

her. She should want to say something...

The vibe between them was very good at first, but then Sherry had a big fight with Daniel and even

smashed Stella's mobile phone by mistake.

Last night Sherry kept holding her so that she forgot to buy a mobile phone after watching a movie...

She didn't receive any news from the outside.

Clarence didn't come back all night.

Seeing that she was not looking well, Elaine asked, "Stella, are you okay?"

Stella slowly opened her eyes, her eyelashes trembled and she breathed out, "I'm fine."

Although there seemed to be emotions running around in her chest, it was not so violent.

It was within her control.

She looked at Archer again and asked, "So, this emotion test is to pave the way for this?"

Archer said, "Yep. Your husband asked me to let you accept it step by step. He said your brother was

very important to you. If you suddenly knew that something happened to him, you would be too

emotional."

Stella pursed her lips and felt a little dizzy.

She said, "Now, what's going on outside?"

Archer said, "I don't know. I came right after I got off the plane. I didn't even have a meal."

After quite a while, Stella said to Elaine, "Elaine, give me your phone."

Elaine quickly handed it over.

Stella logged in on her Twitter account and saw the first trending news was about Conrad Group.

She flipped down the trending list. There was nothing related to Chan, but she found Winnie's name on

it.

Stella clicked in and the news was about suing Chassell.

Seeing that, the guess in her mind was confirmed again.

Except for Chassell, Chan can't be so impulsive to fight with people.

But wasn't Chassell in prison? How did he...

Stella exited the page and wanted to call Clarence, just when the door to the room was opened.

Sherry poked her head in and felt guilty when looking at Stella's eyes, "Stella, you're awake."

Stella stood up and asked, "Where have you been?"

Sherry handed her the paper bag. "I went out to buy you a phone."

Stella opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but just whispered, "I have known everything."

Sherry paused and turned to Elaine.

The latter nodded at her.

"Stella, Are you... okay?"

Stella said, "It's all right. It's useless to say that now. Do you know any other news?"

Sherry said, "Daniel told me that your father has been back and he might have arrived now. As for

Chan... Clarence has been there, but some media reporters waited at the police station as soon as

they received the news. So he didn't bring Chan out. After the limelight subsides in a few days, it

should be OK."

"Where's Chassell?"

"He's... he's in the ICU and hasn't completely survived the danger. Winnie and Daniel are in the

hospital."

Stella was silent and then said, "I see."

Sherry just wanted to say something, but Stella interrupted her, "Then I'll go back first. I have to get

changed and go to the studio."

"Stella..."

Stella looked at the two people in the living room and turned to Sherry, "They haven't eaten yet. Please

order some food for them."

Sherry nodded. Before Stella left, she quickly handed her the new mobile phone.
