Chapter 14 

After a while, Stella heard him chuckle.

A strong scent of cedar wafted over and she heard him say, "It is a little effective."

Stella didn’t think he would react this way.She stared up at him dazedly, unable to regain her senses.

The tip of her nose was still red and her eyes were bloodshot.Her delicate and fair skin seemed so translucent in contrast.

If it had been a few days earlier, Weston would have held her chin and kissed her.

He never held back whenever he needed physical relief with Stella, but now, he was no longer in that position to do that.

Weston leaned in closer and his dark gaze stared at the tear that was threatening to roll down.

"I’ll go soft on you this time.Don’t give me any trouble, okay?"

Stella nodded and answered hoarsely, "Okay."

Weston’s lips curled up but his smile had no warmth.He straightened up.

The top two buttons of his white shirt were undone and his suit jacket was casually draped on his arm.He said lazily, "This method does work, but I prefer your obedient side."

"So, be good."

There was nothing wrong with her health but because she had donated blood to Guinevere in the early stage of her pregnancy, she was weakened as a result.She had recovered considerably by now.

Zeta met her at Roger’s ward when she was patrolling the rooms and greeted her.

"You look great.I presume you’ve decided to keep the baby?"

Roger had been lying on the bed obediently.

But when he heard this, he abruptly turned to Stella and asked, "What baby?"

Stella’s lips were pursed tight and she didn’t answer.The atmosphere became tense for a moment there.

Zeta glanced at Roger, then at Stella, before scratching her nose awkwardly.
