Chapter 215

They made love passionately, losing track of time until until the wee hours of the morning.

When Stella opened her eyes again, the sun was already high in the sky. Stretching, she let out a yawn.

Still half-asleep, it took her a moment to clear her head. She glanced at the empty side of the bed, remembering that Jasper had classes in the morning.

She checked the time it was already past ten.

Stella got up, almost tripping over her own feet, but then she noticed four condoms hanging on the coat hooks. The sight of them made her blood boil, "What does he think this is, the 60s or 70s? Does he think they're reusable?" In a huff, she tossed all the condoms into the trash can.

After freshening up, she noticed Rosie was out, probably at classes with Jasper. She picked up her lunch from Arcadia, specially opting for chicken soup.

Just as she was about to eat, the siblings came home.

After several nutritious meals, Rosie was looking much better, "Stella, I'm back."

"Good, now wash your hands and let's eat."

"Rosie." Jasper corrected his sister, "From now on, she'll be your sister-in-law."

Rosie seemed confused, not quite understanding the difference.

"Because I love Stella and we're together now. She's my wife, so you have to call her sister-in-law."

"Together?" Rosie was puzzled. "But you've always been together."

Despite her confusion, Rosie managed a sweet smile, "Okay! Stella is my sister-in-law."
