Fortunately, the food ordered by Stella was light. After eating, she went to get the medicine for Clarence and poured a cup of warm water in front of him, âTake the medicine first. If you are still having fever tonight, letâs go to the hospital tomorrow.â
Clarence threw the medicine into his mouth. He picked up the glass of water and tilted his head to drink the water. His Adamâs apple bobbed for a moment.
He said, âItâs okay. I just need to rest for a while.â
Stella knew that he hadnât rested much in London these days, and he had returned by helicopter overnight.
Everyone would feel tired after experiencing such things.
She said, âYou may go rest first. Iâm going to take a shower.â
Clarence held her wrist and raised his eyebrows, âLetâs take a shower together, shall we?â
Stella was speechless.
She slapped his hand away, âYou have caught a cold. Canât you be more decent?â
With that, she took the clothes and went into the bathroom directly.
Clarence had changed into a new set of clothes and it looked like he had taken a shower when he came back.
He was a neat freak and how could he be lying in bed directly after such a long helicopter ride.
After taking a shower, Stella felt that she no longer felt tired.
When she went out, Clarence was standing on the balcony talking on the phone.
Stella didnât disturb him and went back to the bedroom.
Clarence had been on the phone for half an hour.
Seeing him coming in, Stella said, âIs anything wrong?â
âNothing. Itâs just some minor issues. Theyâre not important.â Clarence went to her side and laid down. He turned off the light and pulled her into his arms, whispering, âSleep first.â
After sleeping all afternoon, Stella was not sleepy at the moment.
She closed her eyes. The more she slept, the more awake she became.
After she turned over several times from side to side, Clarence said, âCanât you fall asleep?â
Stella said in a soft voice, âAm I too noisy? Iâll go out first...â
She was just about to get up when Clarence put his arm around her waist and said, âNo, I canât fall asleep either.â
Not waiting for him to say the next words, Stella said, âThen letâs close our eyes and have a good rest. Donât think too much.â
Clarence was speechless.
He laughed in a low voice, saying something in her ear, âWhat am I thinking?â
Stella didnât say anything, ignoring him.
Clarence moved his palm on her waist smoothly. His voice was magnetic and dumb, âTell me. What am I thinking? Yes?â
Stella held down his hand, âAnyway... donât think too much. Just close your eyes for a while and then you will fall asleep.â
After a few seconds, Clarence said in the darkness, âStella.â
âWhat?â
âYou said you thought you canât see me again. Are you afraid that you canât see me again in the future?â
Stella remembered the words he said in the downstairs of Steward Group. Her face blushed uncontrollably. She said in a stuttering voice, âWhy are you suddenly... suddenly talking about this.â
Clarence said, âNothing. I just want to confirm again.â
âDidnât I tell you this afternoon?â
âI want to hear you saying it again.â
Stella was speechless.
She couldnât help but say in a low voice, âWhy are you so dramatic when youâre sick?â
Clarence was puzzled, âDramatic?â
âNothing, nothing. Just...â Stella said seriously, âYou shouldnât go somewhere dangerous in the future. I will be worried about your safety.â
Clarence hugged her and let out an âumâ sound. After laying the groundwork for the following topic, he said, âIâve had a narrow escape. Shouldnât you give me some rewards?â
Stella was stunned.
She wondered what kind of bullshit he was saying.
Clarence continued saying, âFor example, if I upset you or make you angry, you should forgive me on the spot.â
âThat depends on the circumstances.â
âWhat are all the circumstances?â
âIf you quarrel with me unreasonably, I wonât bother with you.â
Clarence was dissatisfied, âWhen was I unreasonable?â
Stella said seriously, âAlways.â
Clarence gritted his teeth. He was silent for a while before saying, âWhat about other circumstances?â
Stella said, âWhat else will you do? Cheating? Are you still afraid of upsetting me or making me angry when you fall in love with someone else?â
âWhy are you thinking such a thing? There is no such thing.â
âThen what are you referring to?â
Clarence closed his eyes, âNothing. Letâs sleep first. I feel sleepy suddenly.â
Stella was speechless.
He had learned very well how perfunctory she treated him.
Stella still couldnât fall asleep and tried to escape from Clarenceâs arms and go outside to draw the design.
But as soon as she moved, Clarence hugged her tightly using his arms on her waist, âDidnât you tell me that we can fall asleep after closing our eyes for a while.â
âItâs just a lie.â
Clarence was speechless.
After a while, Stella said again, âClarence, are you asleep?â
âNo.â
Stella gently pursed her lips, âWilliam went to look for me last night.â
âDid you see him?â
âNo. He was in the car and didnât come down.â Stella said, âAnd the other day when something happened to Steward Group, it was also him who helped me behind the curtain.â
âThatâs what he should have done. You donât need to feel guilty at all.â
Stella sighed, âYes, but...â
Clarence knew what she was thinking. He said in a low voice, âThis is not your choice, but his. In other words, this is also the best solution for now.â
Stella also knew that this could only be the case.
If she wanted to protect Chan, she could only act like she didnât know anything.
Even if he was her real father...
Stella didnât know when she fell asleep. When she woke up, Clarence was no longer beside her.
She rubbed her eyes and walked to the living room. She saw that Clarence was working in front of the computer.
Stella who was still sleepy walked over and touched his forehead instinctively. Then, she breathed a sigh of relief, âItâs okay. Itâs not hot anymore.â
Clarence smiled and held her hand, âI told you that I will be okay.â
Standing there, Stella sobered up a bit, âArenât you going to the company today?â
Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again ï¤Chapter 523: Isnât He the Third Wheel if He Stays Here An Eight-year-old Princess âNo, I can accompany you today.â
Stella was silent for a few seconds, âIâm very busy.â
Nothing was going on at Steward Group these two days, so she could go back to the studio and meet with Sherry.
Clarence said, âI know you are busy. Canât you spare some time at night to accompany me?â
Stella smiled, âI will think about it.â
Clarence said, âAre you going to the studio?â
Stella nodded her head and asked, âWhat about you? Are you staying at home?â
âIâm going to the Conradsâ mansion.â
Hearing his words, Stella was a bit surprised, âWhy are you going to Conradsâ mansion?â
Clarence said faintly, âYou disappeared from Conradsâ mansion. Itâs such a big thing. I need to go to explain about that.â
âBut...â
âDonât worry. Iâm just going there for a while. Iâll pick you up at night.â
Stella knew that the purpose he was going there was not simple. There must be other things as well.
She nodded her head, âOkay.â
With that, she said, âThen, I wash up first. Be more careful... when you go to Conradsâ mansion. Donât quarrel with them face to face.â
Now that Master Conrad was very angry with him, it was not safe for him to go to Conradsâ mansion as well.
