Chapter 441
The girl was dressed in a young-looking manner and had her hair in a ponytail. She looked in her early
20s at most.
Keegan asked, "What did the doctor say?”
"The doctor said they'll rerun the test after she has a meal and see what her blood sugar levels are like
tomorrow morning when she has an empty stomach."
The girl paused before she continued, "She doesn't seem like she has any energy right now."
Keegan initially wanted to send her away. However, when he thought of the surgery that was in two
days, he frowned and got up.
"Let's go. Take me to see her," he said.
As soon as Keegan left, Coco pouted and said, "That bitch is capping again. Every time she shows up,
it's either her head or her brain hurts.”
Aldor chuckled, "Where'd you learn those words?"
Coco snorted, "I use social media too, okay? I don't even know what her fans like about her; she's so
fake."

"That's because Uncle Keegan is a silly, rich man and gave her money. Otherwise, she wouldn't save
me."
'Everyone thinks I'm a child who doesn't know a thing, so they didn't avoid me when talking about
certain things. For example, whenever Uncle
Keegan asks her to come to the hospital and give blood, she'll discreetly ask him for something.
Sometimes it would be a script; other times, it would be an endorsement, car, bag, etc. Anyway, she's
never once left empty-handed. Besides that, she's only attentive to me in front of Uncle Keegan; she
practically ignores me behind his back,' she thought.
Coco was a child, so perhaps she did not know what "insatiable" meant. However, she had a feeling
Bella's behavior was incredibly displeasing.
Aldor smiled and did not continue the conversation.
'Children are probably really sensitive in perceiving adults; Coco could tell at a glance whether Bella's
kindness was genuine or not. I just hope everything will go smoothly this time,' he thought.
Stella went to the place to make payments. The moment she checked the account, she realized
Rainee's account had outstanding charges. Besides that, a portion of overdue bills from last month had
not been paid for.
She frowned, "Nobody paid the bill this month?"
The staff member shook their head. They told her that the payments for the recent few months had
been delayed, and the hospital staff had to call and remind them before they had someone come over
and pay. However, this was the longest; it had been almost two weeks.
Then, the staff member printed the recent few months' hospital bills. The bills clearly showed the time
the last payment was made and the expenses for the previous month. Since the payment was delayed,
the account owed the hospital over a million dollars.
Rainee was a long-term in-patient at the hospital, staying there for nearly seven years. That was why
the hospital did not say anything when they delayed paying the bills once or twice. Besides, in most
cases, they paid the bills as soon as they were reminded.
However, the delay was a little long this time. The payee's contact they had saved had not been
answering the phone recently. They had no choice but to let the doctor inform Stella.
Stella darkened her expression slightly. She pursed her lips and took out a card. Then, she handed it to

Right after Stella paid, her phone rang. Surprisingly, it was a call from Albert.
Stella pursed her lips and pressed the answer button. Then, she got straight to the point, "When do you
plan to pay for my mother's medical bills?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was a woman's.
"They're already divorced. So my husband is no longer responsible for paying his ex-wife's medical
bills, right?"
Stella's gaze darkened, "Your husband?"
Hylda chuckled, "I forgot to tell you that your father and I got married.
Based on etiquette, you're supposed to call me mom."
Stella gritted her teeth, "Who are you to call yourself my mother?'
"The law recognizes me as your mother. Since you already know everything, Stella Jewell, I'll cut to the
chase."
Hylda continued icily, "No matter the grudges your parents had in the past, your father has been
shouldering your mother's medical expenses all these years. So he's already fulfilled his obligations to
her. You're the one who disregarded your relationship with him, so don't blame us for being heartless.
From now on, we won't pay a single penny for Rainee's medical expenses. Since you're so capable,
care for your mother yourself."
