Chapter 761
After breakfast, when rence was getting dressed, Ste opened the fridge, took out an herbal soup
pack, and put it into her purse.
Then she suppressed the disgust and difort as she took an injection.
When rence came out, Ste was putting on her shoes at the porch.
Gazing at her, rence frowned a bit.
Ste met his eyes. “What’s wrong?”
rence said, “Why do you look a bit paler than just now?”
She stroked her cheek subconsciously. “Really?”

As she spoke, she looked at rence in confusion. “Do you want to flirt with me again?”
rence knocked on her forehead. “Am I that bored?”
“Of course.” Ste changed her shoes. “I’m done. Let’s go.”
When she reached the door, rence pulled her to stop. “If you don’t feel well, I’ll take you to the
hospital."
Ste was taken aback. Then she said, “I’m fine. Probably the light on the porch is too bright, so my
face looks pale.”
As she spoke, she checked the time. Dragging rence out, she urged, “We’ll bete. Hurry.”
Sherry would inspect the decoration at the film set, so she left home earlier than usual.
rence drove Ste to the studio.
Before she got down, rence could tell she looked much better than earlier, so he didn’t insist. He
said, “If you felt exhausted, just go home. My money is all yours. You don’t need to work so hard.”
Ste smiled. “I know.”
She pulled the door open. Thinking for a few seconds, she looked back, approached rence, and
pecked on his cheek. With a bright smile, she said, “Award for you.”
rence raised his eyebrows, feeling a bit surprised about the kiss.
Ste got down and waved at him. “Bye. I’m going inside.”
rence answered, “Okay.”
Watching the ck car go away, Ste withdrew her gaze and went into the studio.
Sitting in the office, she heated up the herbal soup. Looking at it, she couldn’t drink at all. She felt
sickened again.
She texted Archer asking him if her status was normal.
Soon, Archer called her back.
He asked, “Besides feeling sickened, do you have any other symptoms?”
“After the injection, I always feel dizzy, but I’ll recover in a few minutes.”
“It’s normal. The injection could increase your pregnancy possibility, but it has some side effects. As I
said, you will suffer in the procedure. Besides... it’s just the beginning. In the future, you’ll suffer more.
It’s just like your reaction to the herbal soup. Once you felt disgusted, you would find it more and more
repulsive.”
Ste was silent for a moment. “I see. I’ll try my best to ovee the sickss.”
Archer said, “How about this? I’ll adjust the amount next time.”
Ste refused affirmatively, “No, thanks. Don’t change anything. I can ept it.”
Archer knew why she was so determined, so he didn’t insist on convincing her. “Probably, you’ll get
used to it when time goes by. Don’t give you too much pressure or obsessed with when you’ll be
pregnant. Take it easy. Rx. Then the treatment would be easier, and you would have higher chance
of pregnancy.”
Ste smiled, “I got it. Thank you.”
After hanging up the phone, she looked at the herbal soup. Supressing her sickness, she exhaled,
raised her head, and gulped it down.
Soon, Sherry came back.
She had been busy for a whole morning, soaked in sweat. As soon as she came back, shey on the
sofa motionlessly.
Ste poured a ss of water for her. “How did it go?”
Sherry took a swig. Heaving a sigh, she said, “Almost done. It should be no problem for the shooting
tomorrow.”
Ste checked the time. “It’s not noon yet. Would you like to take a rest here?”
Sherry didn’t have other emergencies to deal with except inspecting the film set, so she nestled on the
sofa and said, “Okay. I’ll take a nap for half an hour. Please wake me upter.”
“No problem. Go ahead.”
Sitting at the desk, Ste continued working on the design drafts on herputer.
A few minutester, Sherry suddenly asked, “Ste, did you smell something weird in this room?”
Ste paused, looked back, and asked, “What smell?”
Sherry opened her eyes, sniffed hard, and thought carefully. “It seemed to be some kind of herbal
soup.”
Then she looked over at Ste. “Are you taking herbal soup?”
Ste smiled. She didn’t want to hide it from Sherry to raise the suspicion, so she honestly said, “Yeah.
I’m nursing my health now, so I’m taking herbal soup daily.”
Sherry thought it was just for nursing her health, so she asked, “Does it work? I also felt a bit unwell
recently. If it works, I’ll also go to see the doctor.”
Ste knew her difort must be from her miscarriage.
Thinking for a while, Ste answered, “It works well. I’ll talk to my doctor. Tell me your symptoms, and
I''ll consult him. He will get the herbal soup for you ording to your conditions.”
“Great. I’ll give it to you now. I feel tired and sore all over recently. After the endorsement stuff is done,
I’ll take the herbal soup and back to be kicking again.”
Shortly after, Ste received Sherry''s message. She forwarded it to Archer.
“A friend of mine felt not well recently. Can you get her some herbal soup, please?”
Archer didn’t reply. Ste guessed that he must be busy.
Sherry said, “Ste, where did you find the doctor? If it works for me, I want to get my mother some
herbal soup as well. Her ankle was twisted before the Chinese New Year. Now, it hurts when never it
rains.”
Ste put down her phone. “Well... he’s my son’s doctor.”
Sherry asked tentatively, “Does he charge a lot?”
Ste smiled. “He’s Darnell James’s...”
She paused a bit.
She hadn’t sorted out theplicated rtions in the James family yet.
Ste continued, “He should be ine’s cousin.”
Earlier, when the team was in theb, it was probably Darnell who had funded them.
Now, rence had moved them into the manor, so all the expense were paid by him.
However, Ste felt embarrassed for keeping bothering Archer.
She thought for a moment and added, “ine told me that her cousin likes Winnie a lot.”
