Chapter 459
Would he feel guilty?
She suddenly thought with self-deprecation. She thought she was the only one who was filled with guilt
for that child.

In the hospital, after the registration, she saw a familiar figure when she was just about to go to the
clinic.
She slowed down her pace subconsciously, wanting to avoid her, but Zeta saw her anyway.
“Are you sick, Ella? Why are you here in the hospital?”
Stella forced a smile and looked at her. “It’s nothing. Just a common cold.”
After saying that, she walked past her. “It’s my turn now. I shall go and see the doctor first.”
Looking at Stella trying to avoid her, Zeta was suddenly reminded of something and grabbed her arms.
“Wait.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella frowned, and her voice sounded a little impatient. “What is it?”
Zeta pursed her lips and looked at her fixedly. “I know I should not meddle in other people's affairs, but
if you came for that, I think I can help you.”
She was a doctor and knew that it was difficult for Stella to get that drug. She was also worried that
Stella would try to get it through illegitimate means if she could not get it from the hospital.
If this had to be the case, it would be better to help her out.
Stella did not expect Zeta to say that, and her eyes flickered. “I am sorry for my bad attitude toward you
just now.”
“It’s fine. I can understand. Come to my office.”
“Okay.”
Stella canceled her queue ticket and went to Zeta’s office.
Zeta took out a small white bottle from the drawer and handed it to her. “The side effects of this drug
are relatively smaller compared to the other drugs.
Nevertheless, it can still be dangerous. You should take it according to your tolerance to it.”
“I understand.”
Stella’s eyes flashed, and she asked, “Will it work?”
“It should be effective. But I cannot be completely sure of it because it still depends on your body.”
“I understand.” Stella held the white bottle in her hand. “Thankyou.”
“By the way, you can only take one tablet at a time. If you overdose, you will likely...”
Zeta did not say it, but she thought Stella would know.
This drug was originally meant for arousing sexual desire. She should be very clear about the reactions
if she overdosed.
The common treatment used to alleviate this problem now was basically to stimulate the production of
specific hormones in the brain. It would achieved the therapeutic effect by boosting sexual interest and
drive, so it would numb the senses of a person to a certain extent.
“By the way, you might experience hallucinations or neurasthenia. No matter what, the side effects of
this drug are harmful, so I hope you can think carefully before using it.”
“Okay. I will.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZeta looked at her leaving back and sighed.
Stella was unsure if it was because of the conversation on the phone during the day, but Weston came
back very late today.
She did not call him. After taking a shower, she took out the bottle of vitamins she bought from the
pharmacy and emptied it, then refilled it with the pills Zeta gave her.
She sat on the sofa in her bathrobe and poured herself a glass of milk.
When she heard the sound of the car downstairs, she poured out a white pill.
After some consideration, she poured out another one and swallowed them.
When Weston came in through the door, he saw the frail woman sitting on the sofa.
He suddenly did not want to get closer to her for a moment.
He had never been afraid of anything all these years.
But with Stella, he seemed to experience how it felt like to be afraid of disturbing her when he wanted
to get close.
“I am home.”
The man’s voice was a bit hoarse.
“Mmm-hmm.”
Stella responded. Her body stiffened, and she didn’t turn around.
