Chapter 13

 Weston’s words were still ringing in Stella’s mind even after he had left.He was right.

With her current circumstances, she couldn’t afford to raise a child on top of caring for herself and Roger.

It was probably her instincts that made her want to keep the child.

After learning that there was another life inside her, Stella naturally built up some sort of connection with it.

She looked down at her flat stomach, feeling disappointed.

"I’m sorry that we’re not fated to be together," she said softly.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

She looked up and said, "Come in."

In came a young female doctor wearing black-framed glasses.She was tall and slender, and her thin face made her look dispassionate, but she had on a friendly expression.

"Are you feeling better?" Stella nodded.

This was probably the doctor Weston had mentioned.

"Are you here to perform a checkup?"

"Yeah."

The doctor went over to the balcony and pulled the curtains open.

As the sunlight shone in, Stella closed her eyes out of reflex.

The brightly lit room further accentuated how pale she looked.The doctor sat down beside her.

"My name is Zeta Taylor.You can just address me by my given name." Stella nodded.
