The CEO’s Ex Wife Returns With A Baby 61
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

Stella believed she had misheard. How was he going to say welcome? However, he truly said it, and he told Riley. For a minute, she felt disappointed, yet delighted that Riley was welcomed. "Joseph ,go to the study." Joseph replied, "Then you guys play, I still have some work to finish with Mr. Conrad." "Ok." Riley waved at Clarence and Joseph with a charming smile. "Actually, I think Clarence is not as scary and cold as I thought," Riley said, glancing behind Clarence . "What do you think?" Stella froze, glancing likewise at that lofty back. "Maybe." "Stella, you're so lucky!" "Lucky?" "Yes, you are lucky to marry such a quality man as him." Fortunate? Stella’s smile was slightly sour as she withdrew the corner of her mouth. She was unsure if her marriage to Clarence was a benefit or a drawback. "But sooner or later you guys will have to divorce, it is useless." ~~~~~ Everyone was seated at the same table when it was time for dinner. Although Greg’s face was b

After supper, Stella sent Riley out, but upon noticing that she was not under a favorable mood, Stella inquired, "What's wrong?" Riley didn't hear her comments because she was preoccupied with thoughts. "Riley ?"Stella’s halted her stride. Riley just realized this at that point, and her clumsy smile only appeared when she met Stella’s worried look. “I apologize for not hearing you, Stella. I was simply thinking about something. Have you spoken to me at all?" "What's wrong with you?" Stella worriedly asked. Riley forced a smile at her "I'm fine" “Are you near to Clarence, by the way?" Stella wrinkled her eyebrows, finding this question a little odd. With haste, Riley clarified, "I just asked casually." Stella paused her speech and gave her a silent glance. Riley became a little anxious at the calm stare and said, "Stella, I just care about you." I had to leave right now.” "Okay, drive carefully." Having sent Riley away, Stella returned to the room. The notion of Ril

"Afraid?" Clarence quietly laughed observing the terror in her eyes, "You have no guts, but you dare to marry into the Conrad family instead of your sister?" His smile was nasty. She felt his breath on her lips as she swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She slowly turned her back to face him, staring at him. "No." He asked with narrowed brows, "No?" "No!" Strongly, she remarked, "Riley will never conspire against you. I brought her only as a guest, and I won't let you think anything of her." He appeared to be moved by the last words, as his pupils briefly paused. "Not allowed?" “Indeed! I forbid it!" "Woman, are you jealous?" He started giggling. Not only was he attractive, but he also had a lovely voice and great kissing skills. Hold on, what was she contemplating? "I'm not envious. I simply won't allow you to cause harm to Riley." When he heard that, his eyes grew icy. Abruptly, he shoved her away. She collapsed on the floor. She gave him a furious look. "You think

Clarence froze in place, and Stella was in shock. as neither of them anticipated such a thing would occur. She looked at him, who was nearby, and shivered her lips before saying, "I'm sorry." Clarence gritted his teeth and looked at her, his face blue. "Sorry?" Squeezing out of the teeth were the words, "Take your hand away." Stella:..... She felt the space she touched become larger as his words left her. With a flushed face, she shrieked and pulled back her hand, gazing at him. "Pervert!" Her face flushed as she chastised. Clarence: Oh my god! Did she really have the audacity to accuse him of being a rogue after having touched it herself? He asked her with narrowed eyes, "Who are you calling a pervert, say it again?" His body had a harsh and frightening atmosphere, like to a ferocious beast that would attack and tear you to pieces if you darted away! Even though she chastised him occasionally, she never ventured to test his boundaries or provoke his rage. He questioned he

185 By the time Stella opened her eyes, she felt so weak that she was unable to stand up. Glancing up, she saw everyone looking at her and it then it dawned on her what took place before. “It’s alright Stella, the police has taken Kelvin and his accomplice away.” Clarence said as Stella froze in fear. “Clarence I..” Stella wanted to talk but she wept instead. She had been so scared thinking Kelvin succeeded in taking advantage of her before dozing off, but now that Clarence had told her that Kelvin got caught, she heaved a sign of relived. Clarence then held her arms and said, “in the past I used to believe that you had only become a substitute bride and got married to me because of my money, and I hated you for that. But now I know the reason why you got married to me in the first place. I also accused you of seducing men, and did other things to test you and see if you’ll truly pass my test and you did,” “So But today, I want to reveal the secret that I had kept a long t

184 "You can't get away." Kelvin put his hand on hers and held her slender wrist. It was vulgar because he dropped his with deliberateness. "Everyone is at the banquet, and there will be more fantastic events following the swimming competition. Nobody is going to come save you, not even if you flee. Accepting me will ensure that I treat you gently." "Let me go!" Stella gave him a firm handshake and took a few backward steps. What had gone wrong with her? Why did her hands and legs lack strength? Her beautiful cheeks were growing redder and redder as she stared at her shaking fingers. She felt as though a constant stream of hot air was emerging from her stomach. It was recognizable. Just like the time Flynn took her away and locked her in the room! Was she drugged once more? The instant this thought crossed her mind, she became desperate. “I tried to convince you to be with me, Stella, but you refused, so I had to do this, you know. I really enjoy you. I promise that no

With a blush on his face, Zach candidly explained to Stella. “Zach Filler is my name, and I am FIL Group's only son. Playing baseball and racing are my pastimes. I'd like to become friends with you." Stella, "........ John, "..." Riley pouted and uttered a sardonic, "FIL Group? Who believe you to be? Do you want to become our friends? Examine your deservingness." Everyone's face changed at the words. Zach looked at Riley , his face going pale and him frozen in place. Even though Stella didn't want to listen to him, she glanced at Riley in shock because she found Riley’s remarks to be too harsh and unbelievable. Riley believed she had a lot of respect since she came into the Red family. She was always haughty and in charge. People dared not touch her because she was true to herself. She always pretended to be a refined lady in front of Stella, but when she saw Zach, she forgot. Riley gave a gentle grin as she considered this. "Lala, I apologize for what I said. I simply p

The game started shortly after the minutes passed. Many girls applied for the girl competition after learning that the winner would receive surprise awards. Nara and Lily both applied for it. They returned and noticed Stella sitting there, so they had to come over and say a few snarky things. “This guy is new to our department, right? Why remain in a daze here?" “Yes, how about entering the competition? People such as yourself shouldn't be the most forceful, right?” With a fixed gaze, John asked, "What do you want?" "Nothing, just to see her." "Are you sure you won't apply for it?" Staring at Stella, Lily questioned. Stella gave her a quick glance. "Is there a rule that I must attend?" "You!" Lily felt enraged. At first, she believed there was a chance to hurt her, but she decided not to take part. “How much does it concern you if she chooses not to participate? You are welcome to participate. With all the others, why even bother?" John furiously stared at the two w

With this thought in mind, Stella closed her eyes and gazed silently at the glistening water. "Sorry, I didn't think that much..." Riley gave a mortifying little smile. With a snort and a mumble about having a lousy idea, John turned to face Stella and behaving like an antipath. "Charge up your phone so we can take pictures later when they are in competition." Riley asked as she had an epiphany, "Will everyone be present when the competition is on?" "Yes, everyone will come, and there will be judges," John said with a nod. "Are only men allowed to compete?" John turned to face Riley and asked, "What do you mean?" "I mean, men can compete, so can we girls." With a brilliant light in her eyes, Joh said, "Yes, but... They didn't make such arrangements and girls couldn't attend." "Isn't that easy?" Riley grinned, reached across to take Stella’s arm, and waved to him nearby, "Mr. Jude!" Riley’s cry caught other people's attention, and Jude turned to face her. His eyes were

Clarence gave her a feral look as he stared. She bit her lip and squinted, saying, "No!" "Do you want to walk around dressed like that?" Her neck was long and fair; she straightened her waist and lifted her chin slightly. "This is how everyone dresses. Why isn't one able to? Since you consider me to be a wantonly woman and you dislike whatever I wear. So why should it matter to me what you think?" Clarence scowled. After saying these things, she turned around and walked away, carefully lowering the shawl to reveal her lovely shoulders. Joseph says, "....." She had a tiger on her back! Clarence’s hands were clinched into fists, and his breath turned chilly. He cast a sardonic glance at that mysterious figure. "Mr. Conrad..... Shall we... bring Mrs. Conrad back?" stammered Joseph , standing behind him. "Who gave you permission to call her that?" "Did I make a mistake?" Joseph asked, swallowing a mouthful of spittle anxiously. When he addressed her as Mrs. Conrad in fron

"Zach Filler, enough. Do you think she is an ordinary woman? She stands together with Miss Red," Zavi remarked. “We can't afford to provoke her, even though she might be a group member's kid." They were a bunch of mostly womanizing individuals. They only played with ladies who lacked wealth and influence since those things could always be resolved with money. They followed regulations. They did not play with wealthy ladies, in contrast to Flynn Andrew, who, as you may recall, "got destroyed by playing with rich women." Although the Andrew Group held significant power in B City, it was eventually eliminated. “ How come we haven't seen her previously if she was a group member's daughter? It was an unknown group, even though she is." "Simple, investigate her." Stella located a seat and wrapped the shawl snugly around her. Riley could not resist making fun of her. What makes you so timid? The purpose of the clothing was to be worn and displayed to others. What is the cover art fo

That final comment seemed almost like a question. Stella had never seen Riley so dominant that she wasn't sure if her feelings were justified. After some while, Stella gave her a look. "Ri, what's wrong with you?" After hearing that, Riley abruptly regained consciousness and realized she was overexcited. She scoffed, dropped her eyes, and shook her head. "What's the matter with me? I have revealed the truth to you. Why? I'm hoping you can leave this situation as quickly as possible. But even though he was directly in front of you, you were too afraid to acknowledge or even speak about it. I wonder if you like Clarence, but I'm not sure what's on your mind." "Actually... I don't know." Stella’s cast her gaze down, gloomy. "I don't think I should like him, but..." Riley worried when she saw her entangled. Was her admiration for Clarence genuine? "However, what? Do you not see that? He's not at all fond of you." Riley realized she had said something unguarded and regretted

Holding a box, Stella stood at the company's door, waiting for Riley. Riley unlocked Clarence’s car and shoved him down as it came to a halt. With a smile, she asked, "Lala, what is your hand?" Stella experienced a vision similar to a sharp knife striking her body as she spoke. Clarence’s sight was as horrifying as a deadly serpent, causing her to shrink backward and clutch the box firmly in her breast. Clarence saw this as a subliminal action, yet she still treated the box as a prize. She had nothing when she got in the car, but when she got out, she had a box. What was meant by that? What a considerate woman, oh. "Nothing." Riley smiled, moved closer to Stella, and shoved Clarence forward as Stella clutched the bag tightly and said. Stella could feel Clarence’s icy breath all over her. She retreated a step, attempting to pull herself from the embrace of his icy breath. “Is that a gift from Jude, Stella? You entered the automobile without bringing this box?" Stella’s fac
