Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

“Okay, we’ll look for him too. By the way, Stella, you haven’t had breakfast yet, right? We’ve made some congee, I think that Mr. Milton should be able to eat it too,” Skye said with a smile.

“It is a little late for me to be making breakfast now. Thank you.”

“It’s my duty,” Skye said.

Stella went to the kitchen to make two poached eggs, then scooped two bowls of congee.

She had made some grilled salmon for Jasper the night before, and he had taken it well. Hence, she thought she could cook some eel for him for lunch.

She called Skye again and requested, “Hey, could you ask the person who went grocery shopping to get some eel, quail, and beef or something?”

“Yes, those were also on the list.”

Stella was really grateful to these doctors. They were really one step ahead of her.

“Thank you,” Stella said gratefully.

After hanging up the phone, she went back to her room with their breakfast. When she walked in, Jasper was taking a shower alone in the bathroom.

He was going to take some time to be done. She was afraid that their breakfast would go cold, which could upset his stomach, so she went back to the kitchen and poured the congee back into the pot.

Then, she went to check on Sandro.

Sandro and the doctors were having a good time, grabbing and tossing a ball around.

The doctor threw the ball at him, then Sandro would crawl over agilely, pick up the ball, and hand it back to the doctor. When he saw Stella, he stopped playing immediately and held out his arms for her to pick him up.

Seeing this, Stella’s heart turned soft. She picked up Sandro and comforted him, “Be good, Sandro. Mommy will take you out to play later.”

“Stella, are you bringing Mr. Milton out with you later?” a doctor asked.

“Yes, I wanted to bring him out for a walk. We won’t go too far, just on the grassland. Oh, I spotted a forest over there, maybe there’ll be some chickens there or something. Let’s try our luck,” Stella said with a smile.

“Sure, we’ll go out with you guys later. That way, we could take care of Sandro for you, then maybe we’ll set up a few tents in the forest,” the doctor suggested.

“Won’t we expose our location like that? Tents are pretty obvious,” Stella was worried.

“It’s fine. We kept this location a secret last time because we were afraid that Samuel Chuck would discover Mr. Milton. Samuel did ask the President to assassinate Mr. Milton before, but since he’s gone now, there’s no one to threaten Mr. Milton’s safety. It won’t even matter if we built houses in the forest now,” the doctor advised.

“That’s a good idea. That way, we could get some air, maybe plant some vegetables and fruits outside. We could even rear some chickens and ducks. It’ll be good for us to pass time and we’ll have healthier options for food too,” Stella rejoiced.

“That’s right.”

“That’s great. Sandro, you could play with your uncles and aunts for a while, I’ll let your father know. After we’ve cleaned up, we can go out to play,” Stella said as she faced Sandro.

The little baby didn’t understand Stella’s words, he just wanted to stick to Stella. Little Sandro kept clinging on to her as he mumbled a few sounds.

The medical staff around them tried to entice him with some toys that could make sounds.

The baby was full of curiosity about the world. When he heard strange sounds and saw intriguing things, his eyes would widen with curiosity, showing his hunger for knowledge.

Stella took advantage of the situation and put Sandro down.

Sandro crawled to take the small trumpet from the doctor’s hand.

With a loving smile on her face, Stella turned back slowly and headed for the kitchen. She scooped two new bowls of congee for them and carried them back into their room.

Jasper had finally come out of the bathroom. He had washed his hair and changed into a clean pair of clothes. He looked very tidy and handsome.

“Come over and have breakfast, the doctors have prepared it for us. I have something to tell you later,” Stella put down the bowl of congee and smiled as she went to help Jasper.

“Mm.”

“Above us, there’s a small grassland with a large area of woods around it. They said that they can build a small house for us there, then we can spend some time outside. It won’t affect your health, and we’ll still sleep here.”

Seeing how happy she looked, Jasper didn’t object.

After he sat down, he gestured with his hand.

Stella looked at it carefully and guessed, “You need four hours for your physio?”

“Mmm.”

“Sure, I’ll talk to the doctor and ask them to come up with a more reasonable plan. We’ll total up the time you need to eat, rest and do your physio. I will accommodate with whatever you need.”

Jasper’s eyes showed his appreciation. Not saying anything else, he just nodded.

After breakfast…

Because there were four doctors going with them, they had prepared a lot of things. When they got out of the base, the fresh air that brushed across their faces made them feel a little cold.

However, this cold was nothing compared to their warm hearts. They felt refreshed and happy.

Seeing that he was outside, Sandro was overjoyed. He waved his fists in the air while muttering “Da-da, da-da” over and over again.

Jasper looked at Sandro. There was a warm smile in his eyes.

Someone had already set up a simple tent and added a cotton blanket, a quilt, and some toys inside.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Stella placed Sandro inside the tent. He quickly propped himself up and started plucking the grass around him.

There was also a bigger tent pitched beside it that had a room and a common space.

Beneath the common space was the lawn. The main function of the tent was to shield them from any rain.

There was a round table surrounded by six chairs inside the common area.

There were ingredients laid out for a barbecue on the small folded table. There were also two barbecue grills beside it.

The room’s floor was also covered with thick cotton wool bedding. If any of them wanted to rest, they could go in and sleep directly.

It was already lunchtime by the time they set all the tents up. Sandro suckled on his milk bottle noisily while he played with the grass inside the tent. After playing for a while, he curiously stuffed a handful into his mouth.

A doctor quickly stopped him, giving him a pacifier. He watched him closely, afraid to even blink in case he tried to eat the grass again.

Stella and the rest had prepared the ingredients. Once that was done, someone started grilling them.

Since Stella had her breakfast pretty late, she didn’t feel very hungry, so she went out to look for Jasper.

He was under the tree, focusing on something. From afar, he looked like a medieval prince, very suave and cool at the same time.

As she walked over, she could hear him whispering under his breath. When he saw Stella, he smiled and asked, “Tired?”

Stella smiled and said, “If you learn one word a day, then you’ll be able to speak just after two months.”

Jasper nodded in agreement.

“They’re doing barbecue for lunch later. Since your stomach still can’t adapt to strong foods, I’ll make some soup for you. Is that okay?”

“Yes.”

Stella pushed him back to the tent.

The doctors gathered around, one of them with Sandro in his arms.

When Sandro saw Stella, he reached out to ask for a hug again.

Stella took Sandro from the doctor’s arms.

“Stella, tell us about you and Mr. Milton,” a doctor pleaded.

Both Stella and Jasper were lowkey and introverted people. They didn’t talk much, much less in front of a crowd. Stella couldn’t help feeling embarrassed, but she knew that it would just dim their happiness if she didn’t speak.

Hence, she spoke concisely. “After meeting him, he lost his memory for a while. I didn’t know that he liked me, so I went to America and studied psychology. Later, I had to work in the army, so we got close. After that, he regained his memory and we’ve been together ever since.”

After Stella finished telling their story, the doctors didn’t speak for a moment.

Finally, a male doctor said, “It all sounds very normal.”

Stella also started smiling.

Jasper held her hand, and the two of them looked at each other. All of that felt like a century ago.

After many twists and turns, heartaches, sacrifices, and emotional turmoil, only the both of them knew how to cherish each other more after having gone through so much together.
