After a long while, she gained her sights and breathed the fresh air again.

Clarence gently patted her face, his brows furrowed tightly, “Stella, wake up.”

But Stella who was lying on the ground didn’t response.

Clarence leaned forward to check her breathes and pressed her chest again. Stella coughed out a

mouthful of water. When Clarence was about to press her belly to let her spit out the rest water,

Horace, who got the news not long ago and rushed to here, suddenly grabbed his hand.

Clarence said in a cold voice, “Fuck off.”

Many people walked over to watch this when they heard the commotion. Horace pressed his lips

tightly. He didn’t explain it and simply said, “The doctor will be here soon.”

Clarence shoved off his hand, “I have to repeat my words. Fuck off.”

Right at this moment, Stella weakly grabbed Clarence’s hand, “I… Cough… I’m fine…”

Clarence looked down at her and found that Stella had waked up and her face was bloodless. She

slightly knitted her brows, seeming to be uncomfortable at the moment.

After two second, Clarence withdrew his gaze and took back his hand. He shot an emotionless glace at

Horace and then stood up and left. After Clarence’s departure, Horace walked over and supported

Stella in his arms, “Stella, let me send you to the hospital.”

When Horace just held Stella in his arms, Rebecca emerged from the crowd and stopped him hastily,

“Horace, what are you doing?”

“I have to send her to the hospital.”

“To hospital? Do you know what today’s banquet is for?” Rebecca took a glance at the woman in his

arms, “She’s Clarence’s woman, but he doesn’t want to intervene in this. Why do you get yourself

involved? It’s none of your business. Don’t forget what promise you made to father and mom before. If

you screw up today’s banquet, the Jason Group will be all up.”

Rebecca continued, “She has waked up and I guess that her situation is not that serious. She just

needs to have a check-up in the hospital. Leave her to me and rest assured, I will take good care of

her.”

When speaking, Rebecca’s security guards took Stella from Horace’s arms.

When they were about to bring away Stella, Horace’s voice suddenly sounded, “Sister, you’re also a

mother and you must have resonance for her feelings.”

Rebecca froze when she heard the words, “Horace, what did you mean?”

“Nothing. I can give her to you, but if the child in her belly is aborted without her knowing, I will not

agree to this commercial marriage even if I have to offend the Conrad family openly.”

“She really… Horace, you…”

Horace continued, “It’s not my child. It’s just that I don’t want anything bad to happen on her.”

The ambulance arrived soon.

Horace watched Stella being carried onto the car and then slowly withdrew his gaze.

In the car…

Sitting beside Stella, Rebecca subconsciously bit her lower lip.

Twenty minutes ago…

Annie had been looking for Stella among the crowd for a long period of time, yet still couldn’t find her.

When seeing the fuming Annie, Rebecca walked over and asked her what was going wrong.

Annie told her that Stella managed to marry into the Conrad family by fake pregnancy and she flirted

with Horace after divorcing Clarence. Now she wanted to use the trick she used before and was

planning to use the child in her belly as a bargaining chip to make a fuss in their engagement banquet,

so that she could stop her from marrying into the Jason family.

Rebecca was older than Annie after all and she was not as impetuous as Annie. She asked Annie not

to be worried and comforted her that the engagement celebration would be held as scheduled tonight.

She asked Annie to leave the other things to her.

After consoling Annie, Rebecca asked a security guard to come over and asked him whether he knew

about Horace’s whereabouts or not. The security guard said that he saw Horace walking towards the

swimming pool together with a woman.

Rebecca immediately had a plan in her heart. Originally, she planned to save Stella at an appropriate

moment because she just wanted to kill the child in her belly and didn’t want to kill Stella.

This plan was made on the spur of the moment and she didn’t have time to plan it in detailed. She

hadn’t expected that the maid would happen to see Stella falling into the water. Moreover, she hadn’t

expected that Clarence would come to the pool so soon.

Luckily, it seemed like Clarence really didn’t like his ex-wife and he left soon after pulling her out of the

water.

Before Horace said those words, Rebecca even planned to secretly abort the child in her belly after

sending her to the hospital. She would tell a lie that it was miscarried by drowning and it was quite

reasonable.

But she hadn’t expected that Horace would see through her little game.

…

After coming back to his room, Clarence pulled off the necktie, took off the wet shirt and walked into the

bathroom.

When he walked out of the bathroom, he saw Justin waiting for him on the corridor.

Clarence asked in a clam voice, “What’s the matter?”

Justin looked at him, “Clarence, I learned from others that Stella fell into the water just now. How’s

she?”

“She has waked up. She won’t die.”

Feeling a bit helpless, Justin chuckled, “You don’t want to come to see her?”

Clarence replied in an indifferent voice, “I’m not a doctor. Will my visit help?”

“That’s different.” Justin sighed, “Clarence, don’t act on impulse and do something that you will regret in

the future.”

“Regret? The most regretful thing in my life is to get to know Stella.” It seemed like Clarence didn’t want

to discuss on this topic. He said in a flat tone, “I gotta go.”

He just needed to show up for a while in this banquet and it would be hypocritical if he stayed here for

longer because it would only disgust the both of them.

“Clarence.” Justin’s voice sounded from behind, “Rest assured. Even though Annie engages with

Horace, it can’t affect your position in the Conrad Group.”

Clarence curled his lips into a disdainful smile, “Undoubtedly.”

He never gave a shit to the Jason family. No matter what Dempsey wanted to achieve by making use

of the Jason Group, he would not care about it.

…

The black Rolls-Royce slowly drove out of the manor. Nathan secretly took several glances at Clarence

from the rear-view mirror. He wished to say something but stopped on a second thought because he

didn’t dare to ask Clarence.

Clarence, who was having a rest with his eyes closed, rubbed the bridge of his nose and said

impatiently, “Spill the beans.”

Nathan immediately straightened his back. He hesitated for a while and then asked, “I… I heard that

Mr. Conrad you walked out of the swimming pool with wet clothes just now. It has been chilling recently

and it’s apt to catch cold in such weather. Mr. Conrad, shall we go to the hospital to have a check-up?”

Clarence replied in a cold voice, “No need.”

“Okay.”

Nathan didn’t dare to say anything else and remained silent all the way.

When they were about to arrive at the Starry Lake Mansion, Clarence slowly opened his eyes and

pressed his temples, “Turn around.”

Nathan didn’t hear it clearly and asked, “What?”

“My head is aching. Go to the hospital.”

“Roger.”

As expected, Mr. Conrad was really double-minded.

Rebecca left after sending Stella to the hospital.

When Clarence arrived at the hospital, the doctor happened to send Stella back to her ward and was

telling the nurse about the matters needing attention.

Clarence just stood at the door of the ward. He didn’t walk into the ward and simply looked into the

room with an expressionless face.

Stella, who was lying on the bed, was breathing evenly in her sleep. It looked like she had lost much

weight recently.

She said that she had gained some weight recently, but Clarence doubted that.
