Chapter 85

The moment Stella spoke, the woman's face turned ghostly pale with fear, not daring to utter another word. Afraid that Stella hadn't vented her anger fully, she quickly turned and left.

The others, terrified and sweating, kept silent, not daring to say a word. They, too, were perplexed, wondering why they had meddled in others' business. Afraid of being targeted by the ruthless Stella, they also hastily left. Cooper, having freed himself from his leash, rushed towards Stella, scratching her anxiously and whining, as if to say, "What's the matter, Stella?"

Stella stroked his head, comforting him. "It's okay."

Rosie ran to Stella, her face full of concern. "Sister, are you okay?"

The concern from the two was evident, making Stella feel a warmth in her heart. Even in this chaotic apocalyptic world, there were still people who cared for her.

The Moore family's father and son were also scared and relieved. "Glad you're okay."

The brick hit Jasper pretty hard and Stella was worried he might have fractured a bone. "Are you sure you're okay?"

Jasper moved his shoulder and a flash of pain showed in his eyes. "Should be... fine."

Seeing his less-than-nimble movements, Stella knew that even if his bones hadn't been damaged, his soft tissues were definitely bruised.

Joey suggested, "We should go home, and if it gets worse, we will go to the hospital."

The doctors, heeding the government's call, were still treating patients, but one had to fend for themselves when it came to medications. They needed an experienced orthopedic doctor to give them peace of mind. Jasper switched the load to his other shoulder, and Stella followed behind, pushing the sled, keeping an eye on his movements.

He was hurt. There was no denying it.

Rosie was worried for her brother, she wiped her eyes but didn't cry.
