Watching them leaving, Maxwell then came over, “Ms. Radomil, are you okay?”
Stella shook her head, “I’m fine.”
She turned around and looked at Elaine, “How do you feel?”
Elaine showed Stella her red wrist and pouted, “It hurts.”
Stella comforted her, “I will apply some medicine on it when we come back and you’ll feel better tomorrow.”
Elaine immediately regained her smile, “Thank you, Stella.”
Sherry walked over in strides, “Stella, what’s going on? If it wasn’t that I saw Maxwell and the other men, I would have called the police as I was so scared.”
Stella replied, “Not a big deal. They were sent by her family and they wanted to take her home”
Sherry heaved a sigh of relief, “Thank god it’s not kidnapping, but they’re so scaring.”
Maxwell explained, “They have been wandering around City N recently. I guess they’ve been anxious.”
Elaina lowered her head without saying anything.
Stella said, “Let’s go back.”
Maxwell said, “I will follow you behind. Ms. Radomil, please call me if you have any problems.”
“Okay.”
After coming back home, Sherry took a bite of the apple while looking at the two men opposite her.
Stella poured some medicinal liquor on her palm, rubbed it against her palm until it turned warm, and then began to rub Elaine’s wrist.
Although they didn’t dare to use too much strength as they were afraid that they would hurt Elaine, since Elaine’s skin was tender and she struggled violently, there were many red marks on her wrist.
Stella rubbed her wrist and said after a long while, “Elaine, have you called your dad?”
Elaine shook her head and then said in a low voice, “I’m afraid that he would criticize me.”
“Your dad will criticize you because he’s worried about you.”
“But I really don’t want to come back. If I come back to Riverside, I will lose my freedom and I will have to stay there for the rest of my life.”
Stella said, “I know what’s in your mind. Even if you want to stay here, you have to make it clear with your dad. Otherwise, this situation will happen again and you will get hurt in the end.”
Elaine realized she was wrong and didn’t speak.
After a long while, Elaine broke the silence, “I see. I will call him later.”
Stella chuckled, “Be calm when talking to him. Don’t quarrel with him.”
Elaine nodded her head obediently.
Stella said, “Then I will prepare the meal. If you’re hungry, eat some fruits. Don’t eat the snacks.”
“Okay.”
Stella stood up, put the medicinal liquor into the medical box and then walked into the kitchen to wash her hands.
Sherry hurriedly followed behind her and said with disbelief, “She’s so willing to listen to your advice.”
Stella replied, “It’s not that she’s willing to accept my advice, it’s that she...”
Stella then looked out of the kitchen and then said in a low voice, “She’s homesick.”
Although Elaine insisted that she wouldn’t come back to Riverside, after all, she was just a little girl who had never left her family, so it was normal for her to get unaccustomed to this strange place when the feeling of freshness gradually faded away.
At this moment, her homesickness would surge.
Although Elaine didn’t show it, Stella could still perceive it after getting alone with her for several days.
It was because of this that Elaine was absent-minded on the way back after the two men left, who came to take her back according to her father’s instruction.
Sherry said, “That makes sense. Although she claims that she hates Riverside, she had lived in that pace for twenty years.”
Stella nodded her head, “Okay.”
Sherry heaved a long sigh, “By the way, I also want to go back home to have a look. But my mom will kill me when she finds out I’m pregnant.”
