Chapter 277 A Hint

Stella’s mouth twitched. She looked at Eddie. Atthismoment, she had absolutely no idea what to say anymore..

Oh my, someone please save me.

“You’re a doctor, but you’re also a man. Even if you wanted to give us this, shouldn’t you have given it to Abraham?!”

Handing it to me directly? What the hell was Eddie thinking?

Stella could tell that he was just single because of his own problem. No wonder back in Falvaria, none of the girls wanted todatehim.

He was good–looking, skilled in medicine. But his mouth and his emotional intelligence were the real problems!

Eddie said, “Give it to Abraham? Do you want him to skin me alive? Stella,don’t be ungrateful. I’m doing this for your sake.”

Uh… Stella mumbled awkwardly.

Eddie pressed, “What do you mean ‘uh? Are you really going to be blind to good intentions?”

Stella muttered. “Thank you. I mean, really, thank you.”

“No worries. We’ve known each other for years, and I watched you grow up. I’m just looking out for you,” Eddie replied

casually

Stella was speechless.

“Wait, did you take the morning–after pill?” he suddenly asked.

Stella was already struggling to process what he had just handed her. Now that Eddie mentioned the words “morning–after pill, her brain completely shut down.

Her gaze turned blank as she stared at him.

Eddie asked again. “You didn’t take it?”

“L… No, I didn’t!” Stella blurted.

After she got injured, she’d come straight back from Pluehville Hill and hadn’t even left the house since.

My luck can’t be that bad, right?

Eddie slapped hisforehead. “Crap. This is really bad”

Stella scoffed, “Who gets pregnant from just one time?”

“Plenty. Aslongas she’s fertile, one time is enough,” Eddie said.

Eddie’swordsseriously gave her a headache. She honestly had no idea what to do with him.

“Getwhat?” Abraham’s voice suddenlycamefromthe staircase, low and tinged with displeasure.

Stella jumped and instinctively hid her handsbehindher back. Eddie sawAbrahamstanding at the top of the stairs.

His mouth twitched. “I… I didn’t say anything!”

He dropped the words and ran off immediately.

Stella watched him flee, her mind going completelyblank.

Abraham camedownthestairsslowly and walked right up to her, holding out his hand. “Giveit to me.”

“What? What do you want?” Stella asked nervously.

Abrahamsaidcalmly, “The thing you’re hiding behind your back”

At this moment, Stella felt like dying. Oh my, just strike me with lightning and turn me to ask already.

Abraham raised an eyebrow. “Star?”

Stellaletout two dry chuckles. Her cheeks flushed red, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

She didn’t know if Abraham was going to skin Eddie alive later, but she really wanted to do it herself.

When Stella didn’t move, Abraham pulled her intohisarms with one quick tug. His arms were long,and he easily reached behind herandgrabbed what she was holding

Stella tried to resist and held on tightly. “No, don’t look at it!“.

Stella

Her face scrunched up completely.

Abraham chuckled softly and easily snatched it from her hands.

Stella buried her face straight into his chest.

Above her head came his low laugh. “Star, are you trying to give me a hint?”

I’m not… I wasn’t,” Stella muttered, clutching his waist tightly, too embarrassed to lift her head.

She cursed Eddie silently. May he never get a girlfriend for the rest of his life!

Abraham asked, “You weren’t?Thenwhy did you buythis? Who brought it to you? Tessa?”

So he didn’t see the whole scene from the stairs?

Stella quickly shook her head. “No, no, definitely not. Eddie gave it to me.”

If Eddie wanted to be reckless, then don’t blame her for sellinghimout!

It wasn’t herfault. In front of Abraham, she really couldn’t hold the line.

If she dared admit she was trying to hint at something, he would definitely carry her straight to the bedroom.

She was still recovering! Better to let Abraham take it out on Eddieinstead.

The two of them were nowstandingvery close. Stella could already feel certain changes in him.

As expected, whenAbrahamheard that Eddie was the one who gave it to her, his tone turned cold. “Eddie?”

“Yeah, it washim, Stella saidquickly.

As for what else Eddie had said, Stella decided to leave that part out.

Byen if shesoldhim out, she didn’t want to go that far.
