Chapter 92\u00a0<\/p>\n
After a long while, Stella stirred on the bed. Her eyelashes fluttered, and a faint murmur escaped her lips as she woke up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The high fever had already gone down, but she could still faintly taste the bitter medicine she had taken.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She turned her head and saw Genevieve sleeping on the edge of the bed with her head resting on her arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stella\u2019s gaze settled on Genevieve\u2019s slightly messy hair. The woman was fierce and annoying, yet when Stella had been feeling unwell, she had stayed and taken care of Stella.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Something seemed to clog Stella\u2019s chest, leaving chest tight and achy. She reached out but hesitated for a moment before touching Genevieve\u2019s hair carefully. It was soft. It was nothing like her personality at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, Genevieve\u2019s eyelashes twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes. As she sat up, she felt a coat sliding off her shoulders, so she caught it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stella watched Genevieve quietly. The hostility that usually filled her eyes was gone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re awake. Do you still feel unwell?\u201d Genevieve asked, reaching out to touch Stella\u2019s forehead.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Instinctively, Stella flinched, but she didn\u2019t pull away. Sensing that the temperature was normal, Genevieve withdrew her hand and was about to get up and pour some water for Stella.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Resting in the little girl\u2019s open palm was a neatly wrapped piece of dark chocolate. It was the same kind Genevieve had used to coax Stella the night before.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stella\u2019s cheeks were flushed, and her eyes darted everywhere except Genevieve\u2019s eyes. She said, \u201cIt\u2019s for you as a thank\u2013you gift.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As if Stella had just completed some incredibly difficult mission, she quickly shoved the chocolate into Genevieve\u2019s hand. Then, she yanked up the covers and covered half her face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve looked down at the chocolate in her palm, stunned. She raised a brow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Was Stella acknowledging her now?\u00a0<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t refuse. Instead, she peeled back the wrapper and popped the chocolate into her mouth. The rich, slightly bitter cocoa melted in her mouth. She commented calmly, \u201cIt isn\u2019t bad.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
At that moment, the door was pushed open, and Tristan walked in. He had already changed into a casual outfit and was holding a glass of warm water. Setting it on the nightstand, he said, \u201cIt looks like the little troublemaker finally knows how to tell good people apart.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stella poked her head out from under the covers. Her face burned red as she shot Tristan a fierce glare. Puffing out her cheeks, she protested, \u201cGenevieve isn\u2019t a bad person, but you\u2019re still annoying!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
So what if he was her brother? All he ever did was stare at her with that icy gaze and threaten her. How was that anything compared to Genevieve\u2019s warmth?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Upon hearing that, Tristan didn\u2019t get angry. Instead, his smile deepened. Genevieve couldn\u2019t be bothered to engage him. She handed the coat to him and said, \u201cIt\u2019s yours.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tristan hummed in response, accepting it naturally and draping it over his arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At that moment, the tight string inside Stella seemed to finally loosen. The fever seemed to have burned away all her sharp edges.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stella stopped causing trouble. Later, when Genevieve spread out her drawing paper and began rushing a draft at home, she simply hugged her knees and sat quietly on the carpet nearby, watching.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Genevieve needed to mix a special pigment. She lined up various bottles and jars on the floor. Then she crouched down and searched for something.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you looking for this?\u201d Stella asked. Her small hand extended a glass bottle with a label toward Genevieve. The label read, \u201cPearly gold powder.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was exactly what Genevieve needed. She looked up and met Stella\u2019s cautious gaze.\u00a0<\/p>\n
