Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Stella pouted and remained silent.

Clarence adjusted the angle of the bed and gave Stella a pillow as a support for her back. He said stiffly, “What do you want to eat? I’ll get it for you.”

“Anything will do.”

Clarence said, “Stay put. Don’t move around. Ring the bell if you’re not feeling well.”

Stella raised her head and stared at Clarence, “Sure.”

Why was Clarence angry?

Soon, Clarence walked out of the ward.

Stella sighed and tried to look for her phone on the side table, but she couldn’t find it.

Stella was still feeling weak, so she sat on the bed and waited for Clarence to come back.

After a while, Clarence returned.

Stella looked at the amount and portion of food Clarence brought back. She said, “I can’t finish all these.”

Clarence replied in a cold tone, “You didn’t see me as a person, but I need to eat as well.”

Stella was speechless.

Was Clarence crazy?

What did she do to offend him?

Stella wanted to get out of bed, but Clarence stopped her, “Stay put.”

Clarence was too domineering. Stella immediately got back on the bed.

Clarence placed a bowl of porridge and a few plain vegetables in front of Stella. Then, he sat back beside the side table.

Stella was confused.

She looked at the food in front of her, then looked at the food in front of Clarence, “This is what I’m eating?”

Clarence looked calm, “You said ‘anything will do’.”

“I did. I would eat these as well, but didn’t you get some other food as well?”
