Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

The baby woke up at the midnight. Stella nursed him, changed his diaper and then consoled him to sleep again.

It was still raining heavily outside and it showed no signal of stopping.

Wrapping her arms around her knees, Stella sat on the bed and stared blankly at the raindrops that gathered on the windows, seeming to be pondering something.

After a long while, Stella stood up and gently walked out of the bedroom.

When she walked to the door, Channing walked out of the other bedroom, “Where are you going?”

Stella paused and then replied, “I will go downstairs to buy something. You can go to the bed.”

Channing replied with a nasal sound. He took a glance at the heavy rain outside and chose not to reveal her lie.

Stella changed her shoes and said, “Help me take care of the baby. He will only wake up once during the night and he will probably not wake up again. But… Anyway, I will come back soon.”

“I see. You can leave. Remember to bring an umbrella.”

Stella pressed her lips together. She didn’t say anything else and just opened the door and left.

After getting downstairs, Stella walked for a long distance before finally hailing a taxi at the cross street.

After arriving at the hospital, Stella directly came to the nurse station. When she prepared to ask the nurse about Clarence’s condition, Nathan’s voice sounded from behind, “Ms. Radomil.”

They entered a lift and Stella asked, “How’s his condition?”

“Mr. Conrad was just sent out of the operation room and the anaesthetic is still effective. But Ms. Radomil, please rest assured. His life is not in danger.”

Stella replied nonchalantly with a nasal sound and fixed her eyes on the ascending number of the lift.

Nathan hesitated and then made up his mind to try the last time, “Ms. Radomil, the reason why Mr. Conrad didn’t tell you about this was that he didn’t want you to worry about…”

Stella turned her head to look at Nathan without any change in her expression, “Do you know what your current behavior is like?”

Nathan was bewildered.

“You’re like a clay idol fording a river. You can hardly save yourself, so I suggest you don’t worry about other people’s affairs.”

Nathan was rendered speechless.

He shouldn’t have brought about this topic.

When they arrived at the door of the ward, Stella was not in a hurry to enter the ward. She looked into the ward through the glass on the door.
