At eight o’clock in the next morning, Madison showed up at the door as agreed.
With her hands wrapped in front of her chest, Madison looked around, “Why are you living in such an ordinary
house? Did Clarence dump you?”
The moment she finished the words, a tall, slender figure appeared in the room.
Madison immediately became silent and walked to an inconspicuous corner to reduce her sense of presence.
Clarence looked towards Stella, “Do you have any matters?”
Stella was rendered speechless.
He had been waiting at the door for a long time. Was he looking for this opportunity to enter her house?
Stella replied expressionlessly, “Come to the one who asks you here.”
Clarence raised his brows and looked towards the breakfast on the table, “May I?”
“Nope.”
Just as Stella finished the words, Clarence said to Channing, “The driver is waiting for you downstairs. Hurry up.”
Channing was rendered speechless.
He handed the bottle of milk he prepared just now to Stella, “Then I have to go first.”
After his leaving, Clarence sat down at the table, “You’ve prepared much for breakfast and it will be a waste if you
can’t finish it. Since I’m free now, I can do you a favor although I’ve been full.”
Stella sneered. When she prepared to say something, the baby wormed his way into her arms and his face was
crimson red. It seemed like he just pooed.
Stella looked towards Clarence and curled her lips into a smile.
‘Well, you want to eat it, right?’ She thought to herself.
Stella put the baby onto the sofa, changed his diaper, stepped towards the table and then threw the diaper into a
rubbish bin near the table.
Clarence who just picked up the knife and folk was rendered speechless.
Stella looked towards him and curled her lips into an extremely gentle smile, “Why don’t you eat? Don’t you like it?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtClarence suddenly thought that women were so scary, especially a woman who was angry.
Without any expressional change, he stood up, “I suddenly recall that I have to go to company to deal with some
matters. Enjoy your breakfast.”
Stella said slowly, “Didn’t you say it would be a waste if I don’t finish it?”
“You can keep it and eat it at noon.”
After finishing the words, Clarence left the house in strides.
Looking at his back, Stella’s mood was apparently improved, which could be seen from her curved lips.
On the other side…
Madison had changed the diaper for the baby. Seeing that Clarence had left, she approached Stella and asked with
a serious expression, “Did he go bankruptcy?”
Stella’s mood was greatly dampened. She turned around and looked at her expressionlessly.
Madison immediately zipped up her mouth, “Rest assured. I will keep this a secret for you. We have shared future
now. Am I right?”
Stella didn’t want to continue this topic. She told Madison about the baby’s living habits and then added, “I will come
back at about half past six every evening, 7 at latest. If you have any problems during this period, you can give me
a call. And if you want to go out, my men will follow you. They’re protecting you downstairs. You may not be able to
see them, but they’re clear of your tracks.”
Madison murmured, “Why do I feel like it’s a spy game. Will it be dangerous?”
“Didn’t you tell you that as long as you’re alive, the baby will definitely be alive?”
Madison replied, “It’s… It’s just a metaphor.”
Stella said, “Then I will repeat my words. No matter what kind of danger you will encounter, as long as the baby is
safe, you will definitely be safe.”
“Well, I see. What kind of danger will I encounter during the daytime? They wouldn’t stab me or shoot me when I’m
on the street, right?”
Stella took a glance at the baby who was playing with toys on the cushion, walked over, pinched the baby’s cheeks
and said in a soft voice, “Mummy have to go out. Don’t act naughtily at home.”
Stella wasn’t sure whether the baby could understand her words or not. The baby waved the toy at her and babbled
some syllables.
Stella chuckled. She then stood up and said to Madison, “I have to go.”
But her eyes had been fixed on the baby as she was reluctant to shift her gaze.
Madison said meaningfully, “You have to get accustomed it. I had the same feeling as yours when my daughter had
to go to kindergarten. Children grow up quickly and they’re different every day. Sometimes I would have an illusion
that there were some changes with my child when I missed one moment of her.”
Stella pressed her lips together and didn’t say anything.
She had missed many moments of the baby’s growth.
She had only met the baby several times during his growth.
In her memory, he had been a newly-born baby.
Actually, if she had a careful observation of him when she met him in Anqiao Street, she would find out that the
baby was sick at that time.
But she thought it was because he was newly born at that time.
But now, the baby looked totally different from how he looked at that time.
He looked healthy now.
When taking care of the baby in the past few days, Stella had thought over many matters. Actually, she could
understand why Clarence chose to keep it a secret from her and decided not to tell her that the baby was still alive.
She had an extremely unstable mental state at that time. Not to mention seeking revenge, she couldn’t even
protect herself. So what could she do even if she learned that the child was still alive? It would probably become
another chance for them to hurt the child.
Clarence hid the child and kept it a secret from her and the Conrads. Few people knew about it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo some extent, this had provided enough protection for the baby so that he would be able to grow up happily and
healthily in a safe environment.
Nonetheless…
Stella still couldn’t accept the fact that Clarence would tell her nonchalantly with various excused that her
assumption was wrong every time when she was about to learn about the truth.
She asked several times and gave him many chances.
Stella pulled herself together, heaved a long sigh, picked up her bag and walked out of the house.
When she walked to the lift, Sherry walked out of her house and asked, “Stella, are you sure that you will let her
take care of the baby?”
Stella nodded her head, “Rest assured. It’s all right.”
Sherry shook her head, “I’m still worried about it. Anyway, I don’t have many matters to deal with in the studio and
I will keep an eye on her in these days. You can focus on your work and leave these matters to me.”
Stella chuckled, “Okay.”
When Stella entered the lift, Sherry walked into the house.
Madison was trying to coax the baby who pouted sadly because of Stella’s leaving with a toy in the house.
When her eyes met with Sherry’s in the air, Madison immediately put down the toy and coughed, “What are you
doing here?”
Sherry replied, “I think you’re not that reliable.”
Madison snorted. When she prepared to retort, the baby began to choke with sobs again.
Madison hurriedly picked up the toy, trying to coax him. With great effort, she finally shifted his attention.
Seeing this, Sherry raised her brows, “Good job. I didn’t expect that you’re skillful in taking care of the baby.”
Madison said, “I’m afraid that someone would lodge a complaint against me, saying that I can’t even solve such a
trivial problem. I have to remind you to drop your dream of seeming me become a laughing stock. Don’t look down
upon me.”
Hence, in the next hours, Sherry and Madison stayed in the house, gazing at each other speechlessly.
