Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Stella was wet from the rain, when she got home, she took a hot shower and then laid down on the bed, soon falling asleep.

Not long after, the doorbell rang.

Clarence opened the door, looking at the person standing outside he asked, "What is it?"

Sherry asked in a small voice, "How is Stella?"

"She’s asleep."

"Is she okay?"

"Yeah."

Sherry nodded, then mumbled, "That’s good."

As she said that, she turned and was about to leave.

"Wait." Clarence called for her, "Do you know how to make ginger soup?"

Sherry was surprised, "What?"

Clarence said, "She was caught in the rain. Ginger soup can prevent her from getting sick."

Sherry finally reacted, and nodded, "Sure, let me do it."

She couldn’t cook as well as Stella did, and she didn’t like to make food herself, but the easy things she could still do.

Compared to Clarence who didn’t know cooking at all, she was not so bad.

Sherry just entered the kitchen when Clarence said, "I need to go out. Keep an eye on her."

"Okay."

Hearing the clicking of the lock, Sherry took a deep breath, nd started looking for ginger in the kitchen.

Not long after, the hot ginger soup was done.

Sherry took the bowl and went to the bedroom. She put it on the night stand and went ahead to wake Stella.
