Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

The baby woke up at the midnight. Stella nursed him, changed his diaper and then consoled him to sleep again.

It was still raining heavily outside and it showed no signal of stopping.

Wrapping her arms around her knees, Stella sat on the bed and stared blankly at the raindrops that gathered on

the windows, seeming to be pondering something.

After a long while, Stella stood up and gently walked out of the bedroom.

When she walked to the door, Channing walked out of the other bedroom, “Where are you going?”

Stella paused and then replied, “I will go downstairs to buy something. You can go to the bed.”

Channing replied with a nasal sound. He took a glance at the heavy rain outside and chose not to reveal her lie.

Stella changed her shoes and said, “Help me take care of the baby. He will only wake up once during the night and

he will probably not wake up again. But… Anyway, I will come back soon.”

“I see. You can leave. Remember to bring an umbrella.”

Stella pressed her lips together. She didn’t say anything else and just opened the door and left.

After getting downstairs, Stella walked for a long distance before finally hailing a taxi at the cross street.

After arriving at the hospital, Stella directly came to the nurse station. When she prepared to ask the nurse about

Clarence’s condition, Nathan’s voice sounded from behind, “Ms. Radomil.”

They entered a lift and Stella asked, “How’s his condition?”

“Mr. Conrad was just sent out of the operation room and the anaesthetic is still effective. But Ms. Radomil, please

rest assured. His life is not in danger.”

Stella replied nonchalantly with a nasal sound and fixed her eyes on the ascending number of the lift.

Nathan hesitated and then made up his mind to try the last time, “Ms. Radomil, the reason why Mr. Conrad didn’t

tell you about this was that he didn’t want you to worry about…”

Stella turned her head to look at Nathan without any change in her expression, “Do you know what your current

behavior is like?”

Nathan was bewildered.

“You’re like a clay idol fording a river. You can hardly save yourself, so I suggest you don’t worry about other

people’s affairs.”

Nathan was rendered speechless.

He shouldn’t have brought about this topic.

When they arrived at the door of the ward, Stella was not in a hurry to enter the ward. She looked into the ward

through the glass on the door.

The words that Clarence said to her when she was hospitalized popped out of her mind.

She also thought of his birthday wish.

Stella chuckled. Clarence knew that he could no longer keep it a secret from her, so he played those tricks and

wanted her to forgive him later.

Seeing this, Nathan chose not to stay here or bother her and silently walked away.

Stella leaned her body against the door and entered the ward after a while.

It was the first time for her to see Clarence lying on the hospital bed like this over the years.

He was totally different from his usual self.

Stella quietly landed her gaze on his right arm which was wrapped by the gauze.

After a long while, Stella turned around and left the ward.

When she walked to the lift, a person called her name from behind, “Stella.”

Stella turned around, “Ms. Anderson.”

Dolores said, “It’s still raining outside. Let Nathan give you a ride.

Nathan immediately walked over the moment Dolores finished her words.

Stella nodded her head as an agreement after a while of silence.

On the way back, Stella leaned her head against the car window and looked out of the window silently.

Being taught a lesson just now, Nathan didn’t dare to talk to Stella again. He remained silent all the way.

Stella prepared to get out of the car when they arrived downstairs and Nathan hurriedly said, “Ms. Radomil, please

rest assured. I will not tell Mr. Conrad about your current domicile.”

Stella looked towards him expressionlessly, “Then I should thank you.”

“It’s what I should do. You’re welcome.”

“I have to go home. You can go back.”

Actually, Stella was very clear that it was easy for Clarence to investigate her tracks. Even though she required

them not to probe into her whereabouts, they wouldn’t obey it.

When Stella went back home, it was already five o’clock in the morning.

Stella pushed open the door of the bedroom and found Channing was sitting beside the bed and looking at the baby

on the bed.

Stella asked, “Why don’t you sleep.”

Channing replied, “I can’t fall asleep.”

“Well, the day is breaking and you have to go to school later. Hurry up to have a rest.”

Channing stood up and walked to Stella, “I’ve asked for a leave.”

They walked out of the bedroom and Stella closed the door, “Why did you ask for a leave?”

“It’s inconvenient for you to take care of the baby alone. I will help you to find a house.”

Although he didn’t ask anything, he was clear that Stella would not live with Clarence shortly.

Stella was stunned when she heard the words. After a long while, she gently nodded her head, “Okay.”

They would only stay here tonight and they had to find a new house later.

Stella asked several seconds later, “How come you came with Emmett today?”

Stella called Channing before coming to Conrad’s Mansion, telling him to call the police if she didn’t go out of the

mansion an hour later.

Channing replied, “I called Daniel after receiving your call, yet he couldn’t come as he had to deal with some

important matter. Therefore, he asked Emmett to come with me.”

“I see. You can go to the bed now. I will come back.”

After coming back to the bedroom, Stella closed the door, sat on the carpet and fixed her eyes on the baby, not

willing to shift her gaze.

She associated all the memories and details of the past several months. It seemed like she was so close to the truth

several times and every time she could almost find out the truth.

But she missed the truth again and again.

From now on, no matter what happened, she would not let go of the baby.

No one could snatch the baby from her again.

It rained for the whole night.

And Stella sat by the bedside for the whole night.

The baby woke up at eight o’clock and began to babble and wave his small hands excitedly.

Stella held him into her arms and walked to the kitchen to boil some water and make milk for the baby.

Several minutes later, there came a knocking sound from the door.

When Stella just opened the door, Sherry rushed into the house and asked anxiously, “Stella, are you okay? I heard

from Daniel that you came to the Conrad’s Mansion yesterday. Did they do anything to you? Where’s Clarence?

Why do you live here alone? Whose house is it?”

Stella was amused by her question and didn’t know how to answer them. She just said, “Rest assured. I’m alright.

Look, I’m good.”

Sherry heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the answer and then found the baby in Stella’s arms.

The baby was looking at her curiously with his round, big eyes widened.

Sherry was shocked, “This…”

Sherry chuckled, “My son.”

Sherry came to her own sense and said dully, “He grows so quickly. Is he the baby that you…”

Stella nodded her head, “Yes.”

“Oh my gosh!”

Sherry eagerly reached out, “Can I hug him?”

The baby didn’t have too much weight, so Stella directly put him into Sherry’s arms.

After holding the baby, Sherry stiffened and not dared to move.

Stella chuckled, “Don’t be so nervous. Relax.”

“He’s so small. I’m afraid that I would accidentally hurt him.”

Daniel walked over and put one hand on Sherry’s shoulder, “Let’s enter the house first.”

Stella said, “I prepared to go out to buy breakfast. What would you like to eat?”

Right at this moment, Channing walked out of the bedroom, “Let me buy it. It’s still raining outside.”
