Chapter 960 Time slowed to a crawl. To Stella, it seemed as if the change of seasons had beenstalled. Spring had come and gone, and the early days of summer were being ushered in.

That said, it rained so heavily last night that it felt more like a cold spring night.

She was walking on the carpet in cotton slippers when she heard someone coming in through the door.

“Dr.

Quirk,” she greeted, more out of a habit than anything.

“Good afternoon!” “How are you feeling today?" “Not bad." She put down the watering can in her hand and played with the leaves of her plants withkeen and focused eyes.

Dr.

Quirk walked up to her and was about to speak when he was distracted by a delicate chain on her feet.

“What is that?” he asked.

= "Hmm?" Stella followed his gaze, smiled, and casually explained, “Oh, these? They’re ankle cuffs.” Stella lifted her left foot, and the dainty chain jingled with a crisp andclear noise.

"I was trying to bask in the sun with my cactus yesterday,” Stella explained further.

“Weston probably thought I was trying to run away again, so he had someone make these ankletsand had them on me.” She spoke in an eerily calm and composed tone, like describing a distant event that had nothing to do with her at all.
