Chapter 195 The Treatment
The Luke family, what kind of family was that?
If Stella could even cozy up to the Luke family, then her relationship to Sterling Global didn’t seem surprising at all.
Just as Ethan turned around, his phone buzzed again, and this time it was a message from Judson: “Try to fight for the chance for the alliance with the Luke family again.”
He didn’t even bother to call.
That just showed how frustrated Judson was.
After all, in Rivermount, it was rare for something to be so difficult that even his direct involvement couldn’t make it right.
But this time, it was tricky.
When Ethan looked at the message, he was feeling just as irritated. Then he replied in simple words: “Got it.”
Judson then texted: “The losses this time are enormous. If we can’t replace it in time…”
Judson didn’t finish the sentence, maybe because he didn’t know how to describe how severe the consequences would be
But Ethan understood well as he sent a short reply: “Understood.”
Understanding it was one thing, but dealing with it was a real headache.
At the hospital
When Lillian saw Ethan replying with a single yes, it felt like all the vigor had drained out of her.
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn’t have believed that Ethan would reply to her like this.
Lillian thought, Isn’t this what was promised before? What is this?Why? Why is this happening?
She took several deep breaths and called Ethan, but the call was cut off after just one ring.
Lillian couldn’t describe how torturous it was from his attitude.
She thought. And for Stella… Had she known something from the beginning? That damn Stella!
The more Lillian thought about it, the more she was enraged.
At the medical room in Pluchville Hill.
“It hurts! Be gentle, would you?” Stella screamed in panic.
At this moment, Abraham was right beside her.
Seeing her so tertied, Eddie’s lips curled into a faint smule as he said, “I haven’t even inserted the needle yet”
Stella was shocked as she thought, Not yet? Mirit a second, what was Eddie doing? That needle had already touched my knee!
She peeked out and looked at Faddie. Sure enough, he hadn’t even inserted it yet, and the needle was still in his hand.
Eddie was left speechless.
He then said, “I haven’t even started. What exactly is hurting? You’d better explain it clearly to your brother in not taking the blame for this

Stella was speechless too. “If you weren’t going to insert it in me, why were you pointing the needle tip at my knee?”
Eddie replied, “I had to find the right spot to insert it to see which spot would give a better effect.”
Stella: “Then look for it! Don’t point the needle at mel
Finished
She was already scared of needles, let alone seeing somebody waving a needle in front of her knee. How could she not freak
out
Eddie then said, “Found it, found it. Don’t scream. It won’t hurt.”
Stella screamed aloud.
Eddie was left speechless as he thought, Is it really that painful? Is it reallythat scary?
Abraham said, “Alright, stop the screaming. It’s done already.”
Stella was puzzled as she thought, Done? Ihadn’t even felt the pain yet.
She looked at Eddie, and he was already holding the second needle. This was exactly why she never wanted a treatment.
one shot. It made two only if the blood draw was counted.
A drip, at least, was just
But this? Countless needles were being inserted into the body.
Although Stella didn’t feel anything from the needle that had just been inserted into her earlier, she couldn’t help but feel terrified.
Abraham comforted her and said, “Don’t be scared. Close your eyes, as his warm, steady palm covered her eyes. He then tilted her head gently and pressed it into his chest.
Stella’s muffled voice came from inside Abraham’s arms. She asked, “Abraham, isn’t there a second option? Pills, I can take pilis instead
She didn’t want the needles. She was seriously scared.
Abraham: “We’re almost done. Eddie has already put in a bunch.
He meant it to comfort her, but hearing his words, she was so scared that she trembled.
Eddie warned. ‘Don’t move“”

He thought. The usually bold Stellawasn’t even afraid to have a fight with men. But notor
Just then, Abel walked in and said, “Mr. Abraham”
“Did they sign“” Abraham asked.
Abel replied, “Yes, everything’s signed”
Louis turned out to be a pretty straightforward partner. If something was wrong, he fixed it right away
Stella looked at Abraham and asked, “What did Ethan say when you met earlier?”
She hadn’t gone to watch the drama unfold, but she was eager to know just how spectacularly Ethan had messed up
