Stella put the baby into the cot, and then nonchalantly asked Clarence to go out, âMr. Conrad, can you leave? I want to sleep.â
Clarence looked up at her and spoke slowly, âIt is only called sleeping when two people sleep together. Otherwise, it is called resting. Are you saying this because you want me to sleep with you?â
Clarence was speechless.
What kind of nonsense he was saying!
Stella was just about to tell him to get lost immediately when the phone in her bag rang.
She was afraid of waking up the baby and went to answer the call hurriedly.
After seeing the caller ID, Stella glanced at the man sitting on the sofa. Then, she walked into the bathroom.
Before the bathroom door was closed, Clarence heard her pick up the phone and the word âEmmettâ came out of her mouth softly.
Clarence put down the book in his hand and pursed his thin lips together.
In the bathroom, Stella pushed the window open again after closing the door. Then, she said, âIs anything wrong?â
Emmett said, âI heard from Sherry that you went to Aqock. Did you have fun there?â
Stella smiled faintly, âIâm fine here. The pace of life here is a bit slower than at City N. It is comfortable staying here.â
âHearing you saying like that makes me want to go and have a look too.â Emmett paused and spoke slowly, stating her intention, âStella, how long will it be before you... probably return?â
âIt should be two or three days.â
Emmett continued, âTheyâre organizing a class reunion during the weekend. Are you going?â
Stella said, âIâll see whether Iâm free at that time. But... didnât we just have a class reunion not long ago? Why are we suddenly having another reunion again?â
âLast time there were only a few of us. This time all our classmates are coming. If you are not going, Iâm not going either.â
Hearing his words, Stella was quite stressed. She thought about it for a while before saying, âThen Iâll ask Sherry first and see what she says.â
Stella wasnât a woman who liked to mess with many people. Moreover, most of her classmates were unfamiliar with one another and they didnât contact one another after graduation.
It should be the first time in the past few years that a large-scale party like this was held.
She wanted to ask Sherry first, to see if there was any reason why she had to go. If not, she would probably not go if it was just a simple party.
âOkay.â Emmett added, âStella, when are you coming back. Iâll pick you up from the airport.â
âNo need, I...â
Halfway through her sentence, there was a knock on the door from outside.
Before she had time to react, she could hear the wretched manâs voice coming from outside. He was saying calmly, âHave you finished showering?
Iâve been waiting for you for half an hour.â
Stella was speechless and she thought that the wretched man must be doing it on purpose!
On the other end of the phone, Emmett was silent for a while before saying, âStella, I wonât disturb you anymore since you are busy. Let me know when youâve thought about it.â
After hanging up the phone, Stella pulled open the door and stared fiercely at Clarence. When she almost spat out some words to curse him, she suddenly remembered that there was a baby inside the room.
She gritted her teeth and could only suppress her anger.
Clarence leaned neatly against the door frame, putting his arms in front of his chest, âYouâve been dawdling inside for so long. Iâm waiting to use the bathroom.â
Stella said while gritting her teeth, âMr. Conrad, donât you have your own room?â
âThe water heater in my room had spoilt.â Clarence said, dragging Stella out of the bathroom, âGo get me a change of clothes. Itâs okay if you donât want to take them. I donât mind...â
Not waiting for him to finish his words, Stella directly pushed him inside and closed the door tightly again.
She took several deep breaths before allowing herself to calm down gradually.
It was only because she had tugged on his sleeve at twilight three years ago that things had come to this point.
In the end, she was the one to blame for causing this to happen.
As the saying goes, what you sow is what you reap.
Stella went to Clarenceâs room. She searched around but didnât see any suitcase, so she eventually opened the wardrobe.
The wretched man had a lot of clothes in the wardrobe. It seemed that he would occasionally stay here for a long time.
Thinking about this, Stella couldnât help but frown. Could it be that the wretched man had come back to stay here after he left with her last time?
However, Stella thought about it. Dolores was Clarenceâs mother. She stayed here and it made sense for Clarence to come back here from time to time.
She simply took a set of casual clothes from the wardrobe and was about to leave when she turned around with an expressionless face and looked into the wardrobe. She felt very annoyed at the moment.
When she got back to her room, she put the clothes in the chair outside the bathroom and knocked on the door. She said as if she was annoyed, âMr.
Conrad, your clothes are here.â
The sound of water in the bathroom paused for a moment before Clarence asked calmly, âDo you take a set of clothes for me?â
Stella was speechless. She clenched her teeth and said, âYes!â
If it wasnât for the fear of Clarence doing something to her, Stella really didnât want to help him to take the clothes.
The wretched man was so annoying.
Stella did not want to bother him anymore and went straight to the bed. She took off her down jacket and wrapped herself tightly with the quilt.
In a short while, the bathroom door was opened and quickly closed then.
Stella could hear the rustling of clothes inside the bathroom even through the thick blanket.
After two minutes, the bathroom door was opened again.
Clarence came out while drying his hair. When he saw the quilt on the bed, he smiled.
Stella said as she was under the quilt to remind him, âSince Mr. Conrad has finished bathing, then please go back to your room. I want to sleep... and rest!â
Clarence said, âDonât you want to take bath? Go and bathe, Iâll help you to take care of him.â
â... I donât want to bathe!â
âDonât you think that you are dirty after hanging around outside all day?â
âI know Iâm dirty but you still take advantage of me.â
Clarence said, âIf you donât want to bathe now, I can take advantage of you now.â
Stella sat up violently from the bed, wishing that she could kill him.
Clarence sat on the sofa and said indifferently, âIâll leave when you come out.â
âReally? I donât believe it.â
Clarence looked at her and laughed lightly, âIf I really want to do something to you, I do not need to wait until now.â
âMr. Conrad, donât you feel ashamed of yourself when you say that?â
The wretched man said like he was an innocent man.
Clarence crossed his long and slender legs, âI donât care if you believe me.â
The wretched man just sat there and did not have the intention to leave the room.
Stella looked at the sleeping baby next to her and finally decided to be determined. She decided not to take a shower before he left the room. Then, she fell back onto the bed again, staying in the quilt.
Clarence was speechless.
Just as he was about to say anything, Clarence said, âMr. Conrad, no matter what you do, you must know my limit.â
Although she had been tolerating him today, it didnât mean that the wretched man could go over her limit.
Clarence raised his hand and pinched his nose bone, âAm I so untrustworthy?â
âItâs not a matter of trusting you or not!â
âThen what is it?â
