Chapter 15 Let your cousin stay fat a while longer

The next morning, Ryan left the country for a medical summit.

When Tessa called Stellao later that day, Stella casually said, “Tell your cousin to stay fat a little longer, Ryan left the country, said he’d be gone for about a month.”

Tessa was surprised. “How do you know? Ryan called you?”

Stella replied. “Yeah, at one in the morning.”

“One in the morning? What, is he crazy?”

Just because he had a messed up sleep schedule didn’t mean he had to drag everyone else into it?

Stella chuckled. “He called about Lillian Reed.”

Tessa asked, “What about her?”

“She was admitted to the hospital last night. Turns out she has multiple illnesses.”

“Multiple? How many? What’s wrong with her?”

She had seen Lillian at the obstetrics and gynaecology department with Ethan yesterday and had assumed she was pregnant.

Turns out, she was actually sick?
