Stella booked two fastest flights to Aqock while in the car. Yet it had already been 6am the next day when they got off the plane. Stella’s heart raced like never before when she stood in front of Dolores’s house. She took a deep breath and after making herself calmer, she extended her hand and knocked the door.

Dolores just woke up. Seeing Stella standing outside the house after opening the door, she asked with surprise, “Stella, why…” Stella pursed her lips and said, “Mrs. Anderson, I still want to take another look at the child.” Dolores was startled and she did not speak for a moment.

Stella was not patient enough to wait for her reply and she ran into the house while taking large strides. Sherry immediately followed her. Yet the little fellow seemed to vanish into thin air. Not a single thing was left in the house. As Stella was standing there in a daze, Dolores came over and said softly, “Hasn’t Mrs. Beckham not recovered from her cold yet? Her son and daughter-in-law had come over and took the child away last night.”

Stella opened her mouth yet she was at a loss for words. Tears welled up in her eyes. Dolores sighed and knew what she was thinking. Yet she could not tell her the truth. She could only pat her shoulder. “Stella, you’re still gonna have children in the future.”

Stella bit her lower lip and held back her urge to cry. She murmured, “I thought…I could almost be sure that…” Yet it turned out she had thought too much in the end. Dolores spoke, “Stella, if you want to see the child, I can ask Mrs. Beckham her house address.” Stella shook her head. “It’s okay.”

“Stella…”

“I’m sorry Mrs. Anderson, I have to leave now.” Stella turned and headed out, she looked inexplicably desolate from her back. Sherry let out an awkward smile and after nodding at Dolores, she followed her out.

The sun had just risen and the streetlights along the brook were shining with orange light. The light was faint and the surrounding looked chilly. Stella lowered her head and walked silently. Sherry caught up with her and said after scratching her scalp, “Stella, it’s all my fault. If I haven’t told you that nonsense, you won’t misunderstand and…”

Stella shook her head lightly. “It’s not your fault, it’s mine.copy right hot novel pub
