Chapter 1902

“Are you sure? I’ve actually gained a few pounds.” Julian helped Stella with the bag and said jokingly, “But you certainly looked chubbier now. You must be eating well at Keegan’s house.”

Stella suddenly felt like smacking this kid. With a stern face, she said, “Shut up if you don’t have anything nice to say. I’m curvy, unlike a skeleton like you. Your limbs are so thin that they make you look weak. I doubt any girl would be interested in you.”

Julian snorted, “I’m still growing.”

“Cut the nonsense and help me buy things.”

Every New Year, Stella would buy a lot of things to give to the children at the welfare center. The kids loved receiving gifts from her; it reminded them that someone still cared for them.

When Stella was picking the gifts, Julian said, “Stella, you don’t have to pay for my tuition fees next year.”

Without looking at him, Stella put some items into the shopping cart and said, “Did you hit the lottery?”

“Nope.” Julian cleared his throat and said, “I should be able to get a scholarship next year.”

year. How can you be so sure that you’ll get it?”
