Chapter 343 Sky High Price.
“Mmm, so bitter… It really was bitter.
Abraham popped a fruit candy into her mouth. “Better now?”
Stella said. “You’re so busy, you should get going.
He’d said he’d only stay two or three days before heading back to Falvaria. He needed to finish things quickly.
And then there was Tessa. She had suddenly gone to Falvaria. From what Stella had heard on the phone, she was a little uneasy.
“Then try to get some rest. You didn’t sleep well on the plane.” He had practically carried her off by force….
Stella replied. “Okay.”
She wasn’t sure if it was from her injuries or something else, but she felt unusually sleepy. Abraham tucked the blanket around her before quietly leaving the room.
At the Reed family’s home. After checking on Lillian. Rianne said flatly. “Her condition’s deteriorated too far. There’s nothing more I can do.
Susan froze. Lillian did too. They looked at each other, eyes full of grief. In Lillian’s case, there. was also a growing fear of death.
“Mom…” Her voice trembled with anguish as she spoke.
Susan’s heart clenched. “Dr. Rianne, is there really nothing else you can do?” Despite knowing that Lillian had once framed Stella the same way she had framed Rebecca, Susan had still gone all out to save her. When Rianne didn’t respond, Susan continued, “You’re supposed to be a prodigy in the medical field. Everyone says you can bring people back from death. There has to be another way, right?”
Lillian chimed in desperately, “Yes, Dr. Rianne, there has to be something. Please, I don’t want to die.”
It had taken her so long to see a doctor again since being discharged, and now all her hopes
rested on Rianne.
At that moment, she had forgotten that Rianne was Stella’s best friend. She forgot everything she had done to Stella. And Stella… was now the consequence she couldn’t escape.
Rianne said, “There’s one option, but it comes with a steep price.
“What kind of price?”

“For advanced–stage multiple cancers, there’s an experimental drug that can kill cancer cells. quickly. But it’s incredibly expensive, which is why it’s not on the open.
market.”
Susan went silent. Before she could say anything. Lillian jumped in. “How expensive? Whatever it costs, I’ll pay!” She wanted to live. Desperately. She didn’t even think about how expensive it could be just that no matter what, the Reed family would find a way.
Rianne glanced at Lillian, seeing her survival instinct, and the greed she couldn’t hide.
Then she looked at Susan.
Susan said, “What is the drug? No matter the cost, we’ll buy it.”
Right… Rianne thought to herself, this is a foster daughter? No, this is clearly a biological one. Considering how broke the Reed family is now, talking big like that… Really?
Alright then, Rianne said seriously. It costs $700,000 per pill. She needs to take one pill a day for the first week, and then one pill per month for the next two years.”
Susan blinked. “$700,000 a pill?” She stared at her in shock.
Seven pills for the first week, then one each month? That was no small expense.
Rianne nodded. “Yes, $700,000 per pill.”
Susan and Lillian were both stunned.
Even after living a life of privilege, Susan and Lillian were shock at that number. Seven pills in one week. That’s $4.9 million? And then another $700,000 every month af
that?
Even for the Reed family, this was an astronomical price. Susan struggled to breathe as she looked at Rianne. “Is the drug really that expensive?” What kind of mechanism justified that price?
Rianne nodded. “That’s why it’s not publicly available. But most major hospitals can get it, if necessary. But supply is limited, and $700,000 is just the base price. If it goes through intermediaries, it could cost even more.”
Susan fell silent. $700,000 is already outrageous–more than that?
She looked at Lillian, whose eyes were burning with desperation. Unable to bear it, Susan turned away and asked, breathlessly, “Is there no other option?”
It was obvious–getting over $4 million together at once was overwhelming for her.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan)
Ch 489 Doesn’t this prove that Dan doesn’t actually have amnesia? Why would he go to the island with a strange woman and why would he steal from Derrick? He doesn’t know them....
Ch 488 I feel like this is going to be what Stella stole in his study in Pagenda or wherever his estate was....
Ch 485 I thought it was going to be the Reed family mine that she robbed, thus taking the Keenes product and leaving them in that situation....
Ch 483 o then, how did the Reeds fine her? How did they not know where she was from?...
Ch 477 Definitely hidden pedo in here, referring to tiny women as little girls in every way possible....
Ch 468 How could Stella inherit her adopted father’s weak stomach constitution?...
Ch 468 Abraham and Marie’s mother has been called Evelyn, Diane and Loretta.. which is it? Evelyn has been the most used....
Ch 465 She still doesn’t know the mistress is Lillian’s aunt?...
Ch 464 Why didn’t she kick her out herself be for she went to attack the mistress…...
Ch 463 This is stupid now. I understand being scared in his presence enough to not think straight, but she’s a lone more often than not and has plenty of time to think things through, especially if she has time to get gossip from Rivermount and report to Stella....
