Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 2072

Stella ventured a few steps into the room before noticing Beck hadn't followed. Turning around, she found him rooted to the spot, as if he had seen through the façade she was desperately trying to maintain.

This woman was clearly pushing herself too hard. Not only was she infuriatingly stubborn in conversation, but it also seemed like she was harboring a storm of emotions inside.

Beck frowned slightly before striding towards her, quickly catching up.

Stella couldn't fathom why he seemed so irritated all of a sudden, but honestly, she was too drained to ponder over it.

Walking into the living room, her lips were trembling, a clear sign of her fear, though she tried her best to hide it from Beck.

Feeling a chill, she lingered in place for a moment before asking, "Beck, where am I sleeping tonight?"

There wasn't a room ready for her, so it was up to Beck to make arrangements.

Moved by Beck's gesture to prepare a guest room for her, Stella quickly averted her gaze, not wanting him to see the tears welling up in her eyes.

After composing herself, she followed the housekeeper to the guest room.

No sooner had she shut the door behind her, Stella rushed into the bathroom and began to vomit uncontrollably.

The housekeeper outside must have heard her, as there was a gentle knock on the door.

"Ms. Sanders, if you need anything, just let us know. There's a first-aid kit in the room. Are you feeling alright? Do you have a stomachache?"

Stella wiped her mouth and, looking into the mirror, saw her pale reflection and disheveled appearance.

Lately, she'd been so preoccupied with dealing with Bonnie and Morgan that she hadn't noticed she'd lost quite a bit of weight.

Hearing the housekeeper's concern, she quickly rinsed her mouth and opened the door, insisting, "I'm fine."
