Chapter 398
After speaking, the doctor left smedication and departed.
Steven's expression had turned cold as he looked at Scarlett.
"Is this how you take care of yourself?" He was irritated that she'd been ignoring her symptoms all
day.
"My cycle is usually irregular. | didn't expect it today, | thought it would be a few days later..."
Scarlett said defensively.
"So you knew it might caround this tand didn't bring any pain medication with you?"
Steven felt his frustration rising at her carelessness.
"I didn't..." Scarlett was pale, brows furrowed with cramps.
But he wouldn't let it go, making her increasingly annoyed. "It's not my fault!"
That comment just triggered Steven further. "You're not taking care of yourself, and you still think
you're right!"
Seeing the pain she was trying to hide made his heart ache.

irritation.
Seeing Steven's darkened expression, she instantly felt remorse.
Without a word, Steven turned and left.
Scarlett felt terrible. Why had she said that?
It was too late to take it back now. And why were the cramps so much worse than usual?
And now he'd left too. The thought made Scarlett feel even more miserable.
But while she was wallowing, Steven hadn't actually left.
He stood outside her door, remembering that heating pads were good for cramps. He decided to drive to the
pharmacy.
This was his first tshopping for these items. Standing in front of shelves of feminine care products, he had no

Seeing his confusion, a store clerk approached him.
"Sir, can | help you find something?"
Steven looked at her, then back at the shelves, and said distantly, "Heating pad."
"Which brand would you prefer?" the clerk asked.

Scarlett looked at the array of things spread out before her, feeling embarrassed. "Maybe this one?"
She pointed randomly at one of the packages. Like Steven, she couldn't really tell the difference
between them all.
Steven took the medication to the kitchen to get swater. Scarlett limped over to lean against
the doorframe, watching him.
He was a chef, but he'd never dealt with this kind of situation before. He carefully read the dosage
instructions while filling a glass of water.
Standing in the doorway, watching him being so careful, she felt... strange.
Why had she been so upset earlier? Why had she felt regret?
After all, none of this was really Steven's responsibility.
