Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

“Yes, it’s all the way inside,” Skye replied.

Stella left the room and walked towards the kitchen.

She grabbed a pot and added a lot of water inside. She then took a few fresh tomatoes and onions from the pantry.

“We have prepared your breakfast,” Skye informed.

“But you didn’t prepare my husband’s,” Stella said firmly.

“Mr. Milton has the IV drip. It has sufficient nutrients for him,” Skye explained.

“His brain is damaged, but his other organs still work. If he doesn’t eat proper food, then the other parts of his body will deteriorate,” Stella said as she chopped up the onions and poured them into the pot.

“Let me remind you that if he eats, he will defecate,” Skye warned.

“I know, and that’s up to me. He’s my husband, and I’ll take care of him. Plus, I was also a doctor before. Don’t worry,” Stella said firmly.

Instead of arguing with her, Skye sneaked out and reported this to Bellamy.

“Let her be. You just need to cooperate with her,” Bellamy replied in a deep voice.

…

At last, Stella was done cooking. Since Jasper hadn’t eaten actual food in a long time, he couldn’t consume the solids for the time being. For now, he could only take liquids.

Apart from that, he couldn’t take liquids in large amounts either as his digestive system was no longer used to it.

She only fed a few spoonfuls of the tomato soup to Jasper.

As he was unconscious and couldn’t swallow, she had to hold his face and transfer the soup down his throat by sticking her lips onto his.

His lips were as cold as ice. Only after she rested her mouth on his that there was a slight warmth.

Stella carried a tub of warm water into the room. She unbuttoned his shirt and wiped his body with a towel soaked in the warm water.

She trimmed his nails after that. It was already 8 a. m. after she was done washing him up.

Then, she proceeded to have her breakfast.

During breakfast, she asked Skye, “May I ask if you have any books here?”

“Yes, there’s a library here especially for us. Mr. Chuck was afraid that we would be bored, so he built it. We could also surf the internet in there,” Skye replied.

“I see. By the way, could my husband wash his hair?” Stella asked.

“Yes,” Skye said with a smile, “Since you’re here, we feel like you’ve taken a huge weight off our shoulders.”

“I hope that all of you could cure my husband,” Stella blurted out of nowhere.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became very tense. Stella’s gaze darkened at the same time.

A bullet had passed through the back of Jasper’s head, it was a miracle that he was even alive. Right now, her request was just asking for a little too much. Her only hope was to find Boris.

Stella went to the library and picked out a fantasy novel after breakfast.

In this novel, human beings could live for hundreds of thousands of years through hibernation.

If there really was that kind of technology, she would wish to hibernate with Jasper. Then, she would wait for technology to advance until they found a cure for Jasper.

She didn’t care how much the times might change, or how many years would pass.

All she cared about was the two of them being together. If things were that way, she would be able to enjoy watching the flowers bloom and wilt as Master Olgic had described.

She washed Jasper’s hair in the afternoon.

She knew nothing about what was happening outside the base as the days passed. There was also no news about Boris.

Jasper could consume a small amount of liquids now. She didn’t want Jasper’s organs or muscles to waste away, so she and the staff would lift Jasper to stroll around for an hour every day.

Stella had even given birth to her son… But Jasper still hadn’t woken up.

She didn’t leave the base either. During the day, she would carry her child and cuddle him. Then, she would talk to Jasper, cook a little, and read to Jasper and her son.

There were many doctors there who helped take care of her son. Stella was fond of cooking, so she would cook for the doctors too.

On this day, the baby kept crying for no reason. He cried so much that it made Stella uneasy. He wouldn’t stop crying no matter how much she coddled him.

“Stella, why don’t you bring the baby outside for a bit? Maybe it’s too stuffy in here,” a doctor suggested.

Stella pondered for a moment.

She could just slip out for a second. Nothing would happen, right?

“Okay, I’ll only be gone for an hour. I’ll just be at the lawn outside. I won’t be far,” Stella said to the doctor.

One of them asked Bellamy for permission.

After getting his word, they arranged for a car to send Stella up to the grassland.

Once they reached the grassland, the little baby was intrigued by the colorful world outside. He stopped crying and peered around curiously.

Stella set him down gently on the ground.

The baby was already seven months old. He could move, crawl, and pluck the grass around him.

Stella was afraid that he would catch a cold, so she picked him back up after letting him play for a few minutes.

The little fellow was so intrigued that he kept dipping his head towards the ground.

Taking off her sweater, she lay it on the ground before placing the baby on top of it.

After being set down, he continued plucking the grass around him. Something so simple could keep him entertained.

Stella looked up at the sky. It was exceptionally blue today, and the wind was a little chilly. Picking up her phone, she was about to call Skye to ask him to bring her jacket over.

However, Skye called her first.

“Mrs. Milton, Mr. Milton is awake,” Skye reported happily.

Stella was stunned for a moment. She was so excited that her voice trembled. “Really?”

“Yes, I’ll send a car to pick you up now,” Skye said and hung up.

Stella smiled happily, and there were no words to describe how she felt. She picked up the baby and said, “Sweetheart, your Daddy’s awake!”

The baby seemed to be infected by Stella’s happiness. He waved his hands up and down and kicked his legs happily.

Lifting him to the sky, Stella exclaimed, “Ah! Your Daddy’s awake! Isn’t that amazing?”

The baby giggled happily in reply.

The car arrived for them not long after. Stella was about to get into the car, but the baby kept making a fuss. He gurgled a lot and pointed outside.

“Be good, my boy. Your Daddy’s awake. We could go out and play together in the future. You’ll have to wait just a while longer,” Stella said happily.

Not knowing whether he understood anything, the baby just pulled at his mouth and stared back at Stella with his large eyes.

Stella flew at the speed of light to Jasper’s ward.

A large group of doctors was doing an examination on Jasper in front of the hospital bed,

Stella walked in with the child in her arms.

Jasper also saw Stella. The corners of his mouth raised into a smile. With much difficulty, he muttered one word,” Stella.”

Feeling emotional, Stella carried the child to Jasper’s side and wept tears of joy. “Jasper, you’ve finally woken up.”

She was overjoyed. It all felt so surreal to her.

Jasper’s gaze slowly landed on the baby.

“He’s our son. You’ve been asleep for a long time. Look at how big he is now. I haven’t given him a name because I was waiting for you to wake up,” Stella explained.

Jasper’s eyes shifted back to Stella as he reached his hand out.

She lowered her body with the baby in her arms.

Jasper caressed her face.

She could finally feel the warmth of his palms.

Taking it all in, she rubbed her face against his hand like a kitten…
