Chapter 622
Stella slept soundly that night, perhaps from the effects of the medicine. Recently, however, she seemed plagued by more and more fatigue each time she woke up.
Perhaps she’d been taking too much medicine lately, or perhaps it was Weston’s insatiable appetite.
The next morning, Stella heard a baby cry before she woke up. It startled her, and she thought she was still in a dream.
After a while, the baby’s crying became extremely clear, as if it was coming from the living room.
Quickly, she lifted the covers and ran out of the bedroom without her slippers. She rushed to the living room and shouted, “Baby!”
Then, she saw Weston standing there with a baby in his arms. When he heard her running, he looked at her.
“You’re awake?”
Stella thought she was still dreaming. She froze at the door, unable to stop staring at the baby in his arms.
Weston paused a little and introduced the child. “This is Zachary. Come and meet him.”
Stella jerked her head up and put her hand on the door frame, looking at him in disbelief.
“What do you mean?”
Weston frowned. “Don’t you like kids?”
Stella fell silent and almost dug her nails into the cracks of the door. “Are you mocking me?” she asked, her nails screeching noisily on the door,
She liked children, but only her own child, the child who was gone before she could meet him.
