Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Stella suddenly remembered something, “The new toxin Justin said before, the box...the box is still with me...”

She came out of Clarence’s arms and wanted to go get it, but Clarence grabbed her wrist.

He whispered, “Calm down please. It has nothing to do with the toxin, nor the box.”

“Then… What’s wrong with it?”

At this time, Archer’s voice came, “His condition is more serious than before.”

These words, like a muffled thunder, stroke Stella’s heart hard.

Her face turned pale in an instant. She murmured, “Isn’t it saying that he’s getting better? We have been treating it

for so long in Riverside City...”

Clarence noticed the trembling of her body and held her hand tightly. “It’s not as serious as you imagine, don’t

worry. Huh?”

The little guy was crying like this… How could Stella not be worried.

She only felt that her whole body had lost strength now. She might have fallen down at any time, if she hadn’t

leaned on Clarence.

At this time, the medicine probably went effected. And the little guy gradually stopped crying. He was now sobbing

his eyes closed.

Dolores stepped forward and said to Archer, “Give me the child. I’ll take him in to sleep.”

After Dolores took the little guy into the bedroom, Stella looked at Archer, “What on earth is going on?”

Archer scratched his head, “Well, it’s complicated. You know, no one can guarantee the effect of the treatment or

something like that. There could be a chance of recurrence. Judging from the current symptoms, it is indeed more

serious than before. But if you think about it from another perspective, it’s also good news, right? We can at least

know where the defect of previous treatment is, so that we can improve it, and provide a better treatment plan.”

Stella closed her eyes, unable to say a word.

She knew that what Archer said was right, but she couldn’t convince herself. They had just witnessed that the little

guy was just getting better, and it had to continue the treatment endlessly.

With that treatment conducted day after day, it is difficult to accept even for an adult, let alone a child who didn’t

know anything.

Clarence frowned slightly and glanced at Archer, who immediately understood. Archer then said, “This... this

treatment won’t take a long time now… We can just make certain improvements on the basis of the previous one.

Not to mention that you will deliver the baby within a few months. If the surgery goes on successfully, then there is

no need to do any treatment after that. All you have to do now is to take good care of your body and give birth to a

healthy child. “

After a long time, Stella asked in a low voice, “Then do you need to go back to Riverside City?”

“Nah.”

It was Clarence who answered her.

He said slowly, “The equipment is all ready here, and you can receive treatment here.”

Archer also said, “That’s right. You still got me here. You can rest assured.”

Stella lowered her head and said nothing.

Clarence took her by the shoulder. “Okay, just go back to sleep.”

Stella looked up at him, “You go to sleep first, I want to be with him tonight.”

Regarding the situation tonight, Clarence did not refuse, but whispered, “Have a good rest.”

She nodded lightly, “I know.”

After Clarence and Archer left, Stella opened the bedroom door and said in a low voice, “Mom, go to sleep. I’ll

accompany him.”

The little guy had just fallen asleep on the bed. He still had tears on his face.

Dolores got up and walked up to her, “Stella, it will be fine.”

Stella forced a smile, “Mom, I’m fine, I just want to accompany him.”

Dolores sighed silently, patted her on the shoulder and left.

Stella sat on the edge of the bed, took the baby sheet next to her, and gently wiped the tears from the little guy’s

face.

The little guy seemed to sense something, stretched out his little hand, grabbed her fingers, and leaned into her

arms.

Stella held him in her arms. He was such a tiny one that seemed to disappear with a touch.

It seemed that he has been sick all the time since he was born.

When he was born, he’s weak because of premature birth. He then seemed much healthier later, but...

Stella took a deep breath, wiping the tears from her face.

Archer was right. The only thing she could do now was to take good care of her body and provide adequate

nutrition for the child in her belly, so that the effect of umbilical cord blood can be maximized during surgery.

For a period of time after that, Stella ate a lot every day and never complained that she seemed to gain weight.

Sometimes, she often ate until she felt nausea, but she still forced herself to eat it all.

By the time she was six months pregnant, she had gained 20 pounds compared to pre-pregnancy.

She could tell that she has gained some weight. But her shape was not exaggeratedly fat. Her belly was much more

obvious than the first time when she was pregnant with a child before.

At that time, basically no one could tell she was pregnant if she wore a loose sweater. But now even wearing a

down jacket, it’s obvious to tell that she’s pregnant.

She also suffered from frequent waist soreness.

Every night, Clarence would gently massage her waist.

Clarence said, “The doctor said that the baby in your belly is already well nourished during the prenatal check-up

today. You should eat less during this time, otherwise we will have to go through the caesarean in seven months.”

Hearing this, Stella let out an “oh” and couldn’t help laughing, “I’ve always heard that you told me to eat more. This

is the first time I’ve heard from you to tell me eat less.”

Clarence raised his eyebrows slightly, “If you can eat this much every day after giving birth, I am cool with that.”

Stella was silent, “Do you think I eat too much?”

Clarence immediately replied, “No, you are doing a good job in taking in nutrition.”

Seeing that he was so eager to please her, a bright smile couldn’t help but appear on Stella’s face. She put her

hand on her stomach gently. T \he little guy in her belly would come out in a month.

During this period, Archer said that under this treatment, the little guy has stabilized and was getting better.

But under such repeated “healing and treating” cycles, she can only rest assured when the surgery has been

conducted and the little guy is fully cured.

Just when Stella was in a trance, Clarence’s voice came, “Winnie Truman is back.”

Stella froze, “When?”

“She had just got off the plane this afternoon.”

Stella’s lips pursed. Since Winnie left, she has almost cut off contact with them. Though she was saying that she was

in an enclosed filming, obviously, she tried to forget what had happened by isolating herself.

She said after a while, “Does she have any other work arrangements later?”

Clarence said while massaging her waist, “She’s not in the Conrad Group anymore. If you want to know anything, I’ll

ask Nathan to check it out tomorrow.”

“No, I’m just asking.”

Clarence said, “Does it still hurt?”

Stella murmured, “Much better.”

Clarence pulled the quilt over her and put her in his arms, “Go to sleep.”
