Annie said, âJustin, Clarence doesnât care about her. Why do you care? She deserves everything that happened today!â
âAnnie, stop it,â Justin said, âFrom now on, Stella will stay here for a while. Stop making trouble.â
Annie snorted, turned around to glare at Stella, and went back to her room.
Right then, the servant came over to report, âMr. Justin, the room is ready.â
Justine nodded. He said to Stella, âStella, letâs go. Iâll show you the way.â
In front of the guestroom door, Justin said, âStella, please donât take what Clarence said seriously. He said it... for your good.â
Stella slightly smiled, âProbably.â
âYou know, Clarence wasnât close to us. The scene today was indeed...â
Stella said gently, âWeâve divorced long ago. He doesnât have any reason to care about me, and nor does he need to care about my opinions. I got to know Miss Steward before. They are truly a perfect match.â
Justin sighed, âYouâd better take a good rest. Iâll talk to my father about your staying here. Please donât worry.â
âThank you, Mr. Conrad.â
Except for thanking him, Stella didnât know what else she could say.
Only Justin treated her as a human being in such a big Conrad family.
Seeing that Stella walked into the guestroom, Justin operated his wheelchair and left.
Stella closed the door and looked at the completely unknown environment, a trace of helplessness surging from the bottom of her heart, her mind going blank. She felt quite exhausted, extremely weak.
...
In the black Rolls -Royce.
Phoebe asked, âClarence, what youâve done today was for Ms. Radomil, right?â
Clarence clenched his fingers and pressed them against his temple. His expression remained unchanged, âYouâve overthought.â
âThen, why did you suddenly agree to marry me?â
âBecause I want to. If you are against it, we can cancel it as well.â
Phoebe laughed, staring ahead. After a moment, she said, âArenât you afraid that Ms. Radomil would misunderstand us and think that thereâs something between us?â
Clarence was annoyed by her questions. He said impatiently, âWeâre getting married. If thereâs nothing between us, itâs weird.â
âI meant whether you are afraid that she would be heartbroken.â
Clarence didnât answer. He snorted. That woman didnât have a heart. How could she be heartbroken?
Seeing that he didnât answer, Phoebe continued, âNo matter why you agreed to marry me, Iâm quite delighted now. After getting married, Iâll take the responsibility as a good wife and take good care of your child born by Ms. Radomil.â
Clarence said indifferently, âJust donât beat around the bush. I know exactly whatâs in your mind.â
Phoebe smiled. She didnât deny it. Instead, she said, âClarence, what makes me curious is that you know this baby would become the biggest chip in your fatherâs hands, but why did you take the risk to keep him?â
Clarence curled his thin lips into an ironic smile, âYou also think Iâm heartless and ruthless, donât you? You think that I can sacrifice anything for the power, right?â
Phoebe was a bit taken aback. She realized that she had said something wrong, âI didnât mean it...â
Clarence seemed to have no intention to listen to her explanation. Instead, he looked out of the window with a cold face, lost in thought.
Phoebe bit her lower lip in secret. If she didnât mistake, Clarence kept this baby wasnât because of the kinship at all.
It was all because of Stella.
Clarence was born cold-hearted and ruthless. Although he wasnât so cruel that he could kill his child, he wouldnât like the child at all. Probably he was still unwilling to admit, but he treasured Stella more than his own life.
Phoebe believed that otherwise, he wouldnât have agreed to marry her.
She exhaled. Fortunately, someone was more eager to get rid of Stella than she was.
...
Stella lay in her room for the whole afternoon, but she didnât even close her eyes for a second.
In the past, when she was in Starry Lake Mansion, she still had certain freedom. Although Clarence sent someone to follow her everywhere, he wouldnât restrain where she would go.
Right now, she couldnât even go out of the door of the Conradsâ Mansion. However, sheâd rather no to go out of the door of her room.
She had just begun her escaping plan. She needed to carefully plan for her escape from Clarenceâs villa, but here, it would be even impossible for her to do it.
This place was a hazardous spot indeed.
There were also dogs.
She covered her head with the quilt, wishing that she could sleep and never wake up.
After a long while, she heard the knocks on the door.
Stella got up and opened the door, only to find the servant, who got her room prepared, stand at the door.
The servant said, âMs. Radomil, this is the necessities that Mr. Justin asked me to prepare for you, including the wash supplies and your clothes.
Stella took them over, âThank you.â
âYou are welcome, Ms. Radomil. If you need anything, please feel free to let me know.â
Before leaving, the servant added, âMs. Radomil, we always have dinner at half-past six. If you want to eat something particular, please tell me one day ahead.â
Stella nodded, âOkay. I got it. Thanks.â
Back to her room, Stella checked the time - it was five to six. That meant in another half an hour, she would need to go to the cold place where she found it hard to breathe.
It was just the first day and she suffered so much.
Stella believed that she would probably go insane before giving birth to her baby.

Dempsey and Joanna didnât speak at all. Occasionally, Justin talked, so that the meal didnât seem lifeless.
However, Stella didnât have any appetite. She forced herself to take a few bites and then sat over there in silence.
Justin noticed that she didnât each much. He asked gently, âStella, donât you like the dishes?â
Stella looked up and shook her head, âI like them. I just donât have any appetite...â
Dempsey chimed in aggressively and coldly, âYou are pregnant now. Even if you donât have any appetite, you must eat.â
Justin, however, smiled at her and said, âItâs alright. Donât force yourself. If you are hungry at night, you can ask the cook to prepare the night snacks for you.â
Stella pressed her lips. She picked up her tableware again and continued to eat.
Justin was the only one in the Conrad family who treated her very well. She didnât want to let him annoy his father.
Dempsey said unhappily, âNow you can eat it, canât you?â
Joanna wiped her mouth with the napkin. She said indifferently, âIf a person has grown up in a different environment and accepted different education, no matter how he or she pretends, the vulgarity and misdeeds in the bone cannot be changed.â
Justin frowned and said in a deep tone, âMom, please!â
Joanna cast him a glance, âWhatâs wrong? I didnât mean her. Iâm just stating a fact.â
Stella kept silent. She knew that Joanna wasnât referring to her. Instead, Joanna was implying Clarence.
