Chapter 926: It Might Not Go So Well
Stella came out of the shower and saw Clarence standing by the window, wondering what he was thinking.
She walked over and said softly, “What's wrong?”
He turned his head to look at her, “Nothing, it's okay.”
As he was speaking, his eyes fell on her head, “Your hair is wet.”
She raised her hand and touched it, “It should have been accidentally soaked in water while taking a bath, and it will
be fine in a while.”
Then Clarence said, “Go and dry your hair, and I'll warm up some milk for you.”
She said “okay” and went into the bathroom again.
Although he didn't say anything, she could see that he was not in a good mood.
She could guess why.
It was getting closer and closer to the day of the cruise party held by Conrad Group when they could deal with Justin
and have closure there.
She probably knew his thoughts. If he didn't deal with Justin ruthlessly but give him a chance, he would feel sorry for
her and their child, but... he always felt guilty to Justin at the bottom of his heart all these years, because of himself
and the James family.
Then she dried her hair, put down the hairdryer, and exhaled slowly.
Hearing the movement from the bedroom, she turned around, opened the bathroom door, and walked towards
him.
She took the milk from him and kissed him on the lips as usual, “Go take a shower and good night.”
He smiled, rubbed her head, and kissed her between her eyebrows.
After he went into the bathroom, Stella went downstairs with the cup, opened the refrigerator, and made some
simple supper with the ingredients inside.
He had a meeting tonight, which means he must have not eaten anything.
After she finished cooking, she went upstairs with a plate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Clarence came out, he saw that she was putting the plate on the coffee table, and walked over and said,
“Didn't you just say you are going to sleep?”
She pulled him to the sofa and handed him the chopsticks, “Hurry up, eat and sleep, I'm too sleepy to keep my eyes
open.”
He said, “What about yours?”
“I ate a lot tonight, and I'm not hungry yet.”
After she finished speaking, she sat beside him and watched him eat.
He was halfway through his meal and turned his head to meet her eyes.
Then he said, “I'll give some to you if you want to eat.”
Stella looked sideways, “No, just go ahead.”
While speaking, she yawned hard, she was really sleepy.
After a while, she leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep.
He put down the tableware and reached out to take her into his arms.
Then she leaned against his chest, breathing evenly, and her lips were pink.
Clarence lowered his head and bit her lip.
She made an uncomfortable noise and was about to wake up, but fortunately, he released her quickly and gently
placed her on the bedHe was about to get up when she wrapped his arms around his neck while she was still
closing her eyes. She murmured,
“Where are you going?”
He whispered, “I'm not going anywhere, just sleep.”
He turned off the light and lay down beside her.
Stella habitually got into his arms and found a comfortable place to rub her face.
Outside the window, the snow fell.
Three days later.
After she put on the tie, she stared at him and said softly, “Be careful, no matter how it ends, I just want to see you
come back safely.”
Clarence hugged her and said, “It will be fine.”
She smiled, “Clarence, you need to know that we are married, I am your wife and the mother of your children.
Whatever you choose, I will support you. My wish is simple. I just want us to live together as a family, and that's
enough. What happened in the past will get better as time passes by.”
He stared at her with dark eyes.
After a long while, he replied in a low voice, “Okay.”
After he left, Stella went to the studio.
Seeing that Sherry came in with a big picture frame, she asked, “What's this?”
Sherry said, “It's all Daniel's fault. He told my parents about our wedding photo and my mother insisted that I
develop one and send it over. And they are asking for a big one. I thought she was going to make an exhibition
downstairs.”
Stella smiled and went to the pantry to get a glass of water, “She waited for a long time for you to take a wedding
photo. It's time to enjoy.”
Then she added, “How are you going to deal with this?”
Sherry dusted off her hands and panted, “I made an appointment for a courier, and someone will come and pick it
up in a while.”
Stella nodded, “Ok then, I am going to draw the design draft.”
“All-righty.”
Sherry has been busy in the studio all morning. After finally sending the photo away, a girl at the front desk
suddenly brought an envelope and said, “Sherry, this is just received.”
Sherry said, “What is this?”
She opened it as she spoke.
Inside the envelope was an invitation card from the Conrad family.
Then she took this and knocked on the door of Stella's office.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the office, Stella held her cheeks and looked out the window. She was a little absent-minded.
“Stella? Stella!”
Sherry called her several times before she snapped back to her senses, “What's wrong?”
Sherry sat next to her, “What were you thinking? Being so focused.”
Stella shook her head, sighed, and said, “Nothing, it's just... I always feel a little worried about Clarence.”
It might not go so well.
Sherry put the envelope on the table, “By the way, someone sent an invitation to the studio.”
Stella glanced at it, picked up the envelope, and opened it.
She knew that Justin did not intend to let her go.
He would find a way to draw her into his trap.
The big gilded characters with the logo of “Conrad Group” suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. They were like
vines with
their teeth and claws, and they frantically dragged her into.
Stella stuffed the invitation into it again. Just when she was about to throw it into the trash can, something fell out of
the envelop.
Sherry bent over to pick it up, and when she saw the things above, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
Seeing this, Stella asked, “What is it?”
Before she finished speaking, Sherry put the things in her hands behind her, and looked away unnaturally,
“Nothing...”
Stella frowned slightly and pursed her lips.
It must be something that would threaten her.
But what it was that made Sherry instantly change her face?
Stella remained calm and said, “Sherry, show me.”
“Stella, you'd better not look at it...”
‘It's ok. Just give it to me. I've survived storms and nothing can hurt me anymore."
Sherry hesitated for a while, and then in Stella's firm eyes, she handed it over.
