Before leaving, Horace stared at Clarence for a long time, wondering if Clarence had known that Stella

was pregnant.

“Mr. Jason,” Clarence called him and said in a flat tone, “I don’t hope such a matter would happen

again in the future.”

Horace paused his pace. After thinking for a while, he asked, “Mr. Conrad, since you said so, are you

worried about Annie Conrad?”

Clarence didn’t answer, but instead, he asked, “After all, she’s my cousin. Shouldn’t I?”

“I’m indeed surprised. Mr. Conrad, although you are a disqualified husband, at least you are a good

cousin.”

Clarence’s expression changed gradually, gazing at him coldly.

Horace nodded at him slightly and turned away.

Clarence looked back, only to find Annie was standing not far away. Dempsey and Joanna were sitting

on the sofa, both looking annoyed.

It was originally Horace’s fault. However, after making a fuss, Annie couldn’t give them the evidence.

Instead, it looked like that the Conrad family was making trouble out of nothing.

Dempsey snapped, “Annie Conrad, tell me the matter from the beginning to the end in details. Is it

Horace didn’t want to admit or you made trouble out of nothing?”

“I...”

In Clarence’s presence, Annie didn’t have the guts to make any trouble. Fortunately, Justin saved her.

He said, “Annie is too young and she cares about her love. It’s normal she would misunderstand

something. Since the matter was explained clearly, the Jason family didn’t complain either.”

As he spoke, Justin said to Annie, “Annie, you can’t do this again next time. Both Mr. Jason and you

are adults. If you want to be with him together longer, you should resolve the conflicts with him in

private. You can’t bother the elders from both families again.”

Annie lowered her head, feeling wronged, “I see.”

Since Justin said so, Dempsey didn’t have the heart to blow up. He was so angry but couldn’t vent his

anger. After a sneer, he walked upstairs with his walking stick.

After he was gone, Joanna also stood up. Casting Annie a glance and glanced at Clarence, she also

left, lost in thought.

Justin said, “Annie, please send me back to my room.”

As if she was rescued, Annie immediately answered, pushing Justin’s wheelchair into the elevator.

However, after she had just relaxed, she encountered Clarence on the way back to her room.

“Hi...Clarence...”

With a hand in his pocket, Clarence said with a cold look, “Follow me.”

She followed Clarence to the garden. Biting her lower lip, Annie couldn’t help but ask, “Clarence, I

didn’t insult her. I also didn’t tell Uncle and Aunt who she is. I truly...”

Clarence interrupted her in a cold tone, “When did you know she got pregnant?”

Annie probably hadn’t expected that he would ask such a question. She became tenser. She couldn’t

tell Clarence that she got to know it at Joanna’s birthday banquet. Stella happened to be drowned that

night. She was afraid that Clarence would suspect her.

She answered hurriedly, “A few days ago, Horace said...”

Clarence’s expression didn’t change, “Did Horace Jason tell you in person?”

Annie bit the tip of her tongue, nodding seriously, “He said Stella is pregnant with his baby. Even if we

are engaged, he wouldn’t leave her.”

Clarence was standing there, and Annie couldn’t tell anything from his expressionless face. She

wondered if he had believed her words or not.

“Clarence...” Annie asked tentatively, “She’s pregnant with Horace’s baby. Will you let her give birth to

it?”

Clarence cast her a smile and answered in a cold tone, “No matter if she gives birth or not, does it have

anything to do with me?”

“No... Nothing. Clarence, I can tell you treat her nicely recently. I thought you are going to remarry.”

Clarence snorted. He didn’t speak and strode away.

After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped. Without looking back, he warned, “I don’t hope anyone

else in the Conrad family would know she’s pregnant.”

Annie was startled, feeling the chill rise from her soles, “I... I won’t tell anyone else.”

After Clarence was gone far, Annie finally felt that she returned to alive. When she turned around and

was about to walk back to her bedroom, she saw Joanna appear from aside.

Annie’s heart jumped into her throat, “Aunt... Have you heard our conversation?”

Joanna crossed her arms on her chest. She looked indifferent, “If I didn’t, you wouldn’t tell me, would

you?”

“No. Clarence didn’t want me to tell...”

Joanna smiled disdainfully. She didn’t take Clarence seriously at all, “Since you are so afraid of him,

why did you have the balls to push Stella down from the stairs?”

Annie was afraid that Clarence was still nearby. Her voice became harsher, “Aunt!”

“No worries. I’ve dealt with all the things for you. He wouldn’t be able to find it.”

Annie bit her lips tightly in fear, her face turning pale. At that time, when Stella was lying on the floor,

she bled a lot. Although Annie always said that Stella was pretending to be pregnant, there was so

much blood, so it was possible that...

If Clarence knew it, Annie believed that he would kill her definitely.

Before Annie could answer, Joanna added, “Annie, you should know Stella’s baby can’t be alive this

time, right?”

...

“Atishoo-” Stella sneezed, rubbing her nose.

It was rainy in the past few days. The temperature dropped a lot. She only brought short sleeves for

summer and she hadn’t got time to shop yet.

Dolores lent Stella a few of her clothes, “I used to wear them before. If you don’t mind, please wear

them.”

Although Stella could tell the age of the clothes from their style, they were not out-of-fashion at all.

They were all vintage.

Each of them was neat and clean, quite well-saved.

“Thank you, Ms. Anderson.”

Stella was pretty. After putting on Dolores’ dress and knitted coat, she looked like a girl from the local

town - beautiful but not enchanting.

Wearing the dress, she circled in front of Dolores, “Ms. Anderson, how do I look? Do you like it?”

Dolores looked rarely satisfied. She nodded, “Not bad.”

“Okay. I’m going shopping. Ms. Anderson, do you want anything? I can buy them for you.”

Dolores said, “Please get some knitting wool for me.”

Stella nodded, “Okay. What colors?”

“Just up to you.”

Before Stella left, the male tenant next door happened to go out. Seeing Stella, he greeted her warmly,

“Hi, Ms. Radomil. Where are you going?”

“I’ll just wander around and buy something.”

“It’s quite far away from here to downtown. How about I give you a ride?”

Stella smiled, “No, thanks. I can walk there.”

The male tenant didn’t insist. He left reluctantly.

The weather was quite pleasant after the rain. The sun was hanging in the sky behind a thin layer of

cloud. Golden fallen leaves covered all the streets. Stella enjoyed the smell of life.

She went to get the knitting wool for Dolores. Then she went to a hospital for the prenatal

examination.
