"No!" Stella pulled Clarence into a muck for the second time in a short period of time. She chose not to let him suffer the repercussions on her account because she felt so bad. After realizing all of that, she approached Mr. Greg without pausing for thought. “It's not Mr. Clarence's fault, Mr. Greg. The person to blame is me." "I beg your pardon?" Mr. Greg gave her a squint. His tone was so menacing that she recoiled a little. "What do you have to do with this?" "It was me..." Clarence cut the other person off. "I prevented her from talking to Flynn." We were not going to work with the Andrew’s . We'll see what the board of directors decides if you have any questions." Clarence sounded more distant than before. Standing there in shock, she cast a doubtful glance back at Clarence . She was curious as to his thoughts. Why would he prevent her from being honest with Mr. Greg? He would cover for her, but why? "Mr. Clarence?" Notwithstanding the fact that Mr. Greg was still th
Stella left Clarence’s office and returned to her desk. Her fingers were shaking as she sat in her chair and the cursor was jumping erratically over the screen. What had gone wrong with her? Isn't it expected of her that he would say things like that? Though she was aware of his awful impression of her, she couldn't help but feel that there might be more. Why did he continually assist her if he despised her so much? She recalled each time he had come to her aid one by one. Clarence always said something hurtful, which made her suffer far more than she would have, so every time it ended up making her feel worse. similar to what had just occurred... She chuckled at herself and hung her head. She was truly absurd. He wouldn't try to make her feel uncomfortable in front of so many people if he truly intended to help her. Everything was nicely clarified by his words. After all, he chose not to work with the Andrew Group on his own. And the Conrad family's reputation was the only reason
Joseph wanted to stand up, seeing as Stella’s attractive face was going to touch the front seat, but Clarence moved much more quickly than he did. With a gentle yet firm grip on her tiny shoulders, Clarence extended his arms and pulled her toward him. Clarence pulled her small frame into his arms. Joseph , seated at the front, witnessed the events but refrained from speaking. "Go to the hospital.” the man in the rear seat gave a clear, emotionless command. "Yes, sir." Stella wasn't acting; she'd gone dark for a bit after bearing the agony for too long. She believed she had struck the front seat. But then she was grabbed by two powerful hands and thrust into a cold hug. She gazed up, seeing Adam's apple and Clarence’s strong chin. Despite his frigid aura, she felt warm and secure around him. Once more! Once more, he assisted her. After assisting her once more, was he going to say something hurtful? She saw the trend and refused to allow it to continue. Clarence was sh
“ As a husband, do you feel any sense of obligation? When your spouse is expecting, you should take the greatest care." Clarence’s face went blank at the barrage of questions. He gripped the chair's armrest firmly. Just before Clarence lost his cool, Joseph noticed that Clarence’s sadness was deepening. "We are sorry for that, physician. Mr. Conrad’s legs ached. As soon as we saw she was in agony, we brought her in. How is she doing now?" With his anger released, the doctor felt considerably better and directed his ugly gaze at Clarence. "She is not in danger at this time. However, she must remain for a few days to be observed." "Are you saying that her baby is safe as well?" Joseph cautiously enquired. The doctor furiously asked, "How could you ask such a question that way? You don't want the baby?" "We certainly do! The fact that the infant is secure is fantastic." Joseph expressed his deep regret. He had trouble using words. The physician raised his fists and walked aw
Stella’s expression seemed a little lost, and Nanny Tara realized that comforting her might not do any good. Still, she went on. “Be not demoralized. You need to build a strong rapport with the young master because you are a fresh addition to the Conrad family. Love requires time to blossom correctly. I discover that Mr. Conrad feels a unique affection for you." Stella lifted her head and gave her a soft glance. "Thank you, Nanny Tara.” Since Stella was the sole patient in the ward, Nanny Tara was permitted to rest in the room's empty bed after supper. After texting Riley briefly about what had transpired, Stella quickly went to sleep. ***** Riley paid her a visit the following day. She gave Nanny Tara a warm embrace and lavished her with compliments. "Nanny Tara , I appreciate you taking care of Stella all night. She will be looked after by me today. You are free to return and relax." Nanny Tara laughed and departed after hearing that. Riley hurried to shut the door behin
Every moment Clarence had entered, Stella had been anxious. She bit her lower lip because she had just mentioned his infertility. She was unsure if he heard it or not when he abruptly showed up at the ward's door. What would she do if he did? Did he hear more, or what? Stella’s face flushed at the thought, and she clutched the bed sheet tightly. Clarence entered, scanned the room, and finally focused on Stella’s body. "Why was the door locked?" Stella’s little face became pale as she tightened up at the sound of this. Clarence’s eyes grew narrow. This woman was really foolish and had no ability to conceal her feelings. A simple question could unnerve her. After hearing it, Riley answered the door and told Stella, " Stellalocked the door so she could change into new clothing. Is something wrong?" Clarence continued to stare at Stella with icy eyes, as though determining whether or not it was real. Stella could only avert her gaze rather than face his. She was just too simple-
Stella was not hospitalized for very long. She made sure everything was okay when the doctor checked her out and then suggested that she should be let go. The physician sighed. "My suggestion is to stay in the hospital for two more days for observation, after all, your physical quality is very poor." "Doctor, l'm really fine, can I be discharged today?" Stella persisted, and the doctor knew she was fine; so, before approving her release request, he advised her to abstain from alcohol going forward. Stella took out a loan from Riley to cover the costs associated with the discharge procedures. Riley stated she didn't have to repay as she understood her predicament. She would not accept Riley’s money without a fight. She was aware of the amount she had borrowed and planned to reimburse herself upon receiving her paycheck. Following her release from the hospital, Stella went back to her house to freshen up a little. She then used the remaining funds from the hospital bill to pur
Riley extended her hand and felt like pushing the door. Startled, Stella hurried over to grab her. Riley sulked and said, "I'll take a peek." Stella dragged her back to her spot without giving her a chance, saying, "Riley, stop it or he'll lose his temper." "Well, I'll hold off till after he leaves work. Was he enraged with you all the time?" After giving it some thought, Stella tilted her head slightly and responded, "No, but that I married into the Conrad family is a nuisance to him, and he has problem on his legs, so I can understand his bad temper." "Really?" After giving it some thinking, Riley said, "I actually believe that he is good and not infertile because he allowed you to stay with the Conrad family." He may not be the same as what is being said." Riley was driven to the office by Stella after Clarence’s workday ended. "Just a look, you cannot stay too long or touch anything, or you will be found." Riley sent Stella home after taking a peek around the office. "S
