Chapter 670
She had not had any food in a long time and was famished. Catelyn took out the porridge that she had prepared earlier and fed her one scoop by another.
Stella looked at Catelyn with her teary eyes. Her eyeballs were rolling from side to side as though she was looking for someone.
"Don't look anymore. Quinn was nowhere to be found when you were having the surgery last night." Catelyn saw through her.
Stella's tears looked even more glittery now.
When she was sent to the hospital, she could still briefly feel the movements around her even though she had passed out. she just could not say anything. Quinn knew that she had to go through the surgery. Could she not have waited and stayed with her longer?
Stella was disappointed.
Catelyn found the way Stella treated Quinn was really strange," Mom, now that Quinn is not here, be honest with me. What is your relationship with Quinn? Did you get injured because of her?"
Stella's head was shaved. Her head was still wrapped in bandages, she wanted to shake her head, but it was so painful that it felt as though her head was splitting into two.
"I fell accidentally."
"Do you think I will buy that?" Catelyn looked at her intensely.
Stella felt guilty and did not dare look into her eyes. Her gaze was shifting left and right. Just at this very moment, she was surprised to see Quinn appearing in the doorway. She called her name out, " Quinn..."
Quinn overheard Catelyn interrogating Stella at the door, and her heart almost leaped out.
"Auntie..." She changed her expression into one that looked pleasantly surprised and came in enthusiastically, she held Stella's hands. "You passed out and got admitted into the hospital. I was so concerned! I heard that the chapel nearby was famous for making wishes come true, and I went to pray for you. 1 have even gotten you a lucky charm."
Quinn took out a piece of pendant from her purse.
Stella smiled, she received the pendant and held it to her chest.
Quinn then fawned at Stella. "Auntie, I am so glad that you are fine. I am sure you will be healthy and live long."
Stella touched her head lovingly, she was so happy that she had lost her words.
Catelyn would not make it difficult for Quinn either in front of Stella. She smiled lightly. "It is so nice of you. I'm sure it's not easy to get all these done overnight?"
"Nothing big at all. It did not take much of an effort..."
Stella just woke up, and her body was still weak, plus her emotions were sent on a roller coaster. Both Catelyn and Quinn did not stay for long.
Once Stella fell asleep again, Catelyn pulled Quinn to the corridor outside of the ward.
"What are you doing? You are hurting me!" Quinn hissed under her breath.
Once they reached the corner of the corridor, Catelyn flung her arm away, she said coldly, "I had prepared a suite near Mason Group for you. You need to move out this afternoon."
"Are you... Are you kicking me out?" Quinn found it unbelievable.
Catelyn took out a stack of green bills from her purse. "It's either you take this money and move out or get out of Mason Group altogether. Either one out of the two options. You make the call."
Quinn bit her lower lip and stayed silent for a while. She grabbed the money that Catelyn gave her and said defiantly, "I will move out!"
