Stella didn’t say a word.
He knew she must be having severe gastric pains considering how badly she was shaking.” Does this
have anything to do with what you ate?”
She remained mute and turned to the other side, her eyes tightly clenched.
He was on the verge of exploding at this point but swallowed his rage at the sight of her suffering,
mainly because it broke his heart to see her in that way. “Why didn’t you stop eating if you knew you
couldn’t eat it?”
He thought she knew her limits, and he did, in fact, stop her right in time, but never thought that the
little she had was enough to put her in so much pain.
“Do you even care for your health?”
She opened her mouth as if to say something but the pain she was in made her lose all her strength.
Even speaking was extremely difficult.
“Water” was all she managed to say. Weston stood up immediately to get a glass of warm water. He
tried to feed it to her, but she was in so much pain that she barely had the strength to open her mouth.
Instead of entering, the water dripped down the sides of her mouth.
When he saw this, he took a sip of the water, pressed his lips on hers, and slowly let the water into her
mouth as they kissed.
Stella’s entire body trembled as she sat in his arms. Weston could almost feel the excruciating amount
of pain she was in right now.
Nonetheless, after the drink of water, she was a little relieved, but her body was still curled into a ball.
“Stella…” His heart broke, looking at her in such a state.
He dialed the doctor once again, “It’s been 20 minutes and you’re not here. What good are you for?”
Millionaires like him had a personal doctor that was on call 24-7, ready for his command, but since it
was rush hour, there was heavy traffic along the way. By the time the doctors arrived, it was already
late at night.
Weston coldly glared at them and said sarcastically, “You could be a lot slower.”
The head doctor immediately rubbed the sweat on his forehead away and apologized, “So sorry Mr.
Ford. We were caught in heavy traffic. We did our best to hurry here.”
Evidently, it wasn’t one doctor who had come.
On the phone, Weston briefly told them about Stella’s situation.
His private doctors were a team, and they didn’t know the existence of Stella.
Before this, they had only treated him alone, but since there was now a lady, they had brought
a couple more people. They too didn’t know about her identity. A female doctor came forward.
“Mr. Ford, can I check on her?” Weston let go of Stella and signaled the doctor to come.
Stella instantly opened her eyes when she felt the warm body she had been relying on was gone. She
abruptly backed away in fear. She was insecure and scared, especially now, when she had lost all
rationale after being in so much pain. All she wanted to do was just scrunch herself into a ball and not
let anyone bother her.
“Hello miss, I am a doctor. Can I have a look at you?” the doctor asked gently as she sat at the bedside
and placed her hand on Stella’s back and carefully pat her.
She was very experienced and knew how to calm a patient.
However, Stella still wouldn’t calm down. Constantly backing away like a scared animal, whimpers
escaped her mouth as she curled herself even tighter.
Weston couldn’t stand looking at her like this, and he strode towards the bed and carried her in his
arms.
Unsurprisingly, she fought hard to push him away. Seeing this, the doctor said immediately, “Mr. Ford,
don’t force her. You’ll only scare her.” With that, he stopped and gazed at a pale Stella who had
shrunken into a tiny ball. “Should I just watch her in pain?!” he growled with his eyes closed, voice filled
with anxiety and anger.
