Chapter 210

Aurora held an empty pill box in her hand, and it was the same one that Stella had thrown into the trash after taking her birth control pill the day before.

Stella wondered how it ended up back in her room, considering Maya had cleaned it yesterday.

Stella’s face went pale. This time, she did not fake it. She was startled.

Cordelia, who was still in the dark about the situation, asked in confusion, “What’s going on? What is that?”

Cordelia was taken aback. “Contraception?” she asked, looking at the box and then at Stella before turning to Keegan. “Keegan, did you make her take these pills?”
