In the hospital.

As soon as Rebecca came out of the bathroom, she saw her mother holding a flower basket at the

door. She asked casually, “Who has sent it?”

Tabitha pulled a long face and looked a bit annoyed, “It’s from Clarence Conrad.”

Upon hearing it, Rebecca said surprisingly, “Clarence Conrad? Hasn’t the Conrad family sent us a gift?

Why did he...”

“I don’t know what he meant. He sent it over in his name.”

Rebecca was more confused. Clarence never was friendly to her whole family. Although they had

become in-laws because of the engagement of Annie and Horace, it was decided by Dempsey. Hence,

they couldn’t get along with Clarence more.

In such a circumstance, how could Clarence send her a gift deliberately for her childbirth?

Tabitha said, “Isn’t he getting married to Phoebe? Would it be possible that Phoebe asked him to do

so?”

Rebecca shook her head, “How could Phoebe ask Clarence to do anything?”

The more she thought about it, the weirder Rebecca felt. She didn’t want to overthink, but the matter

that Clarence sent her a gift was way too creepy.

While she was trying hard to figure it out, Tabitha suddenly said, “Rebecca, look. There’s a card.”

“Let me take a look.”

Rebecca took it over. When she opened the card and read the line, she suddenly looked pale.

Tabitha noticed it and asked, “Rebecca, what’s wrong? What’s on the card?”

Rebecca returned to her senses. Immediately, she shook her head and pressed the card behind her

back, “Nothing, Mom. It’s just some wishing words.”

Right then, her baby woke up and started weeping. Tabitha rushed to coax the baby.

Rebecca sat on the bed. Although there was a heater in the room, she felt extremely cold as all fours

were frozen.

Clarence wouldn’t have written such words for no reason. She guessed that he must have known she

made Stella drown.

She also knew that according to Clarence’s character, he wouldn’t let it go so easily.

...

On the second day during breakfast, Dempsey was still angry. He pulled a long face without saying a

single word.

Joanna still looked expressionless. Annie lowered her head and held her breath.

Only Justin said, “Clarence, you haven’t stayed home for several years. Since you moved back this

time, please stay here longer.”

Upon hearing it, Dempsey didn’t speak, but he looked quite annoyed obviously.

Clarence curled up his lips. He said calmly, “Yeah. I’m not quite busy with my work recently. Otherwise,

I wouldn’t have this chance.”

Right after the last syllable fell from the tip of his tongue, Dempsey smashed his tableware onto the

table and walked into the study with the walking stick.

Shortly after, Joanna wiped her mouth and left as well.

Seeing that, Annie followed her immediately.

Justin said, “Clarence, it’s good that you’ve moved back. You can accompany Stella. She’s living here

alone. I don’t think she feels quite easy.”

Clarence cast a glance at Stella, who was drinking the porridge in silence, “? I can tell she enjoys living

here a lot.”

Stella was speechless.

Justin smiled. He patted Clarence on his shoulder and operated his wheelchair towards the garden,

“It’s a nice day. I’ll go out for a walk. Suit yourselves.”

Stella didn’t want to talk to Clarence. She wanted to lead a happy life.

After breakfast, she was about to return to her room as usual. However, as soon as she stood up, a

servant brought in two persons, “Mr. Clarence, they said they are employees of SG Jewelry Magazine.”

Stella looked back, only to find Sherry standing next to the servant blinking at her.

Upon hearing the sound outside, Dempsey walked out of the study. With a frown, he said, “Who

allowed them to come in? What are they doing here?”

Clarence stood up and said in a cold tone, “I invited them to come here.”

Dempsey was extremely unhappy that Clarence had moved back without noticing him. Upon hearing

his words, Dempsey looked more annoyed, “What are you doing?”

Clarence answered indifferently, “I accepted to take an interview.”

Dempsey wondered if Clarence was mentally ill. Usually, he didn’t care whatever this disobedient son

was doing. However, today, Clarence asked the magazine employees back to the Conrads’ Mansion

for an interview.

Dempsey was pissed off by Clarence. For a moment, he couldn’t utter any word. He could only pace on

the floor with the walking stick violently. Then he turned around and walked back to his room.

Watching the unexpected scene, Stella was a bit taken aback.

Sherry looked around and found that nobody else was with them. She walked up and tugged Stella’s

sleeve, “What are you thinking about?”

Stella was brought into her senses, “Sherry, why are you...”

Before Sherry answered, Clarence looked over at the editor from the magazine who came over

together with Sherry, “Let’s go.”

The editor immediately followed him.

Sherry whispered to Stella, “Which room do you stay in? Let’s talk in your room privately.”

Stella took Sherry into her room and asked, “Sherry, what’s going on? How come suddenly Clarence

has accepted an interview with SG Jewelry Magazine? And you are...”

Sherry answered, “Since you were taken away by the Conrad family, I’ve been worried about you. So

on the day before yesterday, I went to Conrad Group and have a try...”

Stella contacted Sherry after being taken away and she told Sherry that she had to stay in the Conrads’

Mansion for the time being. Probably she had to quit from SG Jewelry Magazine as well, and she

asked Sherry not to worry.

However, she was pregnant and was taken away. Sherry knew what kind of place the Conrads’

Mansion was, so she was still quite worried about Stella.

That was why she went to meet Clarence.

Much to her surprise, Clarence agreed to come over and meet Stella.

Sherry said, “Honestly, sometimes he’s truly a wretched man, but at the critical moment, he’s quite

reliable. Besides, he used the interview as an excuse. In this case, no one in the Conrad family will

trouble you.”

That made sense, but Stella wondered why Clarence would have done it.

Before she could figure it out, Sherry added, “Stella, what’s your plan now? Are you going to stay here

all the time?”

Stella shook her head. After a thought, she said, “A few days later, it’ll be Clarence’s father’s birthday

banquet. It’s a chance for me.”

“What’s your plan then? What should I do to help you?”

Stella said, “Nothing. Thank you, Sherry.”

After a pause, she added, “Sherry, you can’t let anyone else know about my escaping plan this time.”

“Even not Chan?”

Stella nodded. Once she successfully escaped, Clarence would suspect Chan and Sherry first, so he

would investigate starting from them certainly.

Hence, she absolutely couldn’t ask them for help this time.

Otherwise, she would pull them into the mere.

Stella added, “After it becomes peaceful in City N, I’ll contact you guys, Sherry.”
