Chapter 247 A Risky Treatment
“Besides Yvonne, two other groups are targeting Stella. We need to prepare in advance.”
Elias was only focused on Stella’s safety.
Stella patted his arm gently. “Don’t worry. I’ll be careful.
Elias held her hand tightly, his gaze steady and reassuring.
Jasper looked concerned. “Stella, what do you think we should do?”

“I’m wondering if Sean’s illness can be treated. I could help him. If he recovers, he can handle those people himself.”
“The Corbins are a legendary medical family. If even they can’t cure him, he must be beyond help.”
“Dad, let’s wait and see. If he’s truly dying and they still come after me, I’ll take the initiative and deal with them.”
“Alright. Daddy will have your back.”
Jasper felt guilty.
The Moore family had never brought her good fortune–only trouble after trouble.
“Stella, I’ll always be by your side too.”
Stella looped one arm through Jasper’s and the other through Elias‘, smiling softly. “Okay.”
“Me too. Whatever you need, I’m here,” Leo said seriously.
Mark smiled. “If you ever need your uncle, just say the word.”
Stella nodded quickly.
The cold, powerful genius was now glowing with happiness.
The next day, Stella met the two Corbin brothers.
“You want to treat me?” Sean looked stunned.
Stella nodded.

Shane smiled bitterly. “Stella, everyone says my brother’s illness is incurable.”
“Everyone‘ doesn’t include me.” She looked at them calmly. “Yes or no? One word.”
“Absolutely yes,” Shane answered at once.
“Give me your hand.”
Sean did as she said, a faint spark of hope rising in his chest.
After examining him, Stella frowned.
“Stella, how is he?”
“Staying alive won’t be easy.”
Finished
The brothers looked disappointed, but they quickly composed themselves–it was what they’d expected.
“But it’ll cost extra.”
“What?” Shane thought he’d misheard.
Sean was also shocked, and hope flickered again.
“Stella… you mean you can treat him?”
“I never said I couldn’t. The chance is slim, but it’s not zero.”
“If you cure my brother, I’ll give you everything I own.”
Stella blinked. “How much is everything?”
“About 40 to 50 billion dollars.”
She paused for a second.
From what she knew, the Corbins were ruthless. Yet these two had a surprisingly close bond.
“If you doubt me, we can sign a contract right now.”
“No need.” Stella waved a hand. “I didn’t bring enough medicine. I’ll come back next time.”
“This is for you… and I’m sorry.”
She took the documents Sean handed over. They contained profiles of the two candidates

Nadia Corbin and Rhett Corbin.

Nadia is only a side–branch member. Why does she look so much like my grandmother? And a little like my father?
“Sister Stella, are you confused? Ask me anything. I’ll tell you everything I know.” Shane was eager to help when he saw her deep in thought.
Stella laughed helplessly. “Don’t call me sister.”
Shane blinked, then smiled awkwardly. “Our dads are cousins. You’re older than me. What else should I call you?”
He scratched his head and looked at Sean confusedly. “Sean… should I say cousin?”
Stella fell silent.
Sean was also at a loss for words.
The kid’s so clueless he doesn’t even get the hint.
“You’re only two years older. Did I make you feel old? I’ll call you little sister then.”
“Stop.” Stella was slightly annoyed.
“Don’t be mad. I won’t do it where anyone can see.”
He really knew how to act cute, with that handsome, puppyish face.
She refused to believe the youngest Corbin heir was actually this naive.
Sister Stella, I heard the Shaw Foundation is your charity. I want to support you. I’ll donate one

“I have a question. Nadia’s from a side branch. Why does she look so much like my grandmother when she was young?”
Sean and Shane both froze for a second.
“Grandpa said the same thing. She resembles your grandma. But we share Corbin blood, so it’s
normal.”

“Is it?” Stella’s eyes narrowed slightly.
For a side–branch relative, the resemblance was far too strong.
