Prev Chapter Next Chapter

When Dolores came back to the backyard, Dolores had woken up.

Holding the baby who was in sound sleep in his arms, Channing was staring at Nathan.

Stella walked over, “Ms. Anderson.”

Dolores was stunned when she saw Stella. It seemed like she was not totally conscious. Maybe it was

because she didn’t expect to see Stella here.

“Stella…”

Stella asked, “Do you feel better?”

Dolores nodded her head, “I just feel a bit dizzy. Nothing else. You…”

“Clarence is in the front house. Joanna had committed suicide.”

Dolores was dumbfounded and was suddenly lost for words.

Channing frowned, “She committed suicide? She should have a more serious punishment.”

Stella felt a bit tired. Looking at the rain outside which was getting heavier and heavier, she didn’t want

to stay here any longer. “Ms. Anderson, then I have to leave first. They will send you back,” said Stella.

Dolores stood up, “Stella, where are you going?”

“I will go back… Er, I will find a place to live in temporarily.” Stella looked towards the baby, “Ms.

Anderson, thank you for taking care of the baby during this period.”

Dolores immediately understood what Stella planned to do when she heard the words.

This day finally came.

She and Clarence had kept it a secret from Stella for so long. She didn’t have the qualification to take

care of the child anymore.

When Stella took a step forward, Nathan walked over, “Ms. Radomil, let me give you a ride.”

Stella looked at him expressionlessly and said in a flat tone, “No thanks.”

“Ms. Radomil…”

“I hope you will not investigate where I’m living in or whom I meet up with again. Just show some

respect to each other. Now I don’t want to see any of you.”

Nathan was lost for words.

As a matter of fact, Stella was not talking to him; instead, she wanted him to deliver the words to

Clarence.

Stella took the baby from Channing and held him in her arms.

Emmett had been waiting for them outside. When Stella walked over, he opened the car door.

Channing slightly nodded at Dolores and then left.

Watching the black car disappear into the rain, Nathan asked, “Ms. Anderson, what should we do now.”

Dolores sighed emotionally, “We should give her some time.”

Dolores paused and then added, “By the way, where is Amanda? Is she rescued?”

Nathan replied, “She died.”

Dolores was frozen, “She died?”

Nathan nodded his head, “She tried to escape from the Conrad’s Mansion to report the situation, but

was then caught back.”

Nathan didn’t mention the details, but Dolores was clear about what would happen next.

She closed her eyes, feeling a surge of tiredness and helplessness.

Right at this moment, Maxwell hurried over, “Ms. Anderson, let me send you back.”

“Where is Clare?”

“Mr. Conrad passed out when he left the front house. Mr. James has sent him to the hospital.”

Dolores was taken aback, “He fainted?”

Maxwell replied, “Mr. Conrad got a gunshot on his arm a while ago and he lost a lot of blood.”

“Send me to the hospital.”

This night was destined to be turmoil.

On the other side…

Looking at the baby who was sleeping soundly in her arms and was sucking his fingers, Stella

gradually curled her lips into a smile.

Luckily, there was still time.

The baby almost died in front of her.

She finally performed the responsibility that a mother should take.

Right at this moment, Channing handed her a tissue.

Stella asked in confusion, “What’s the matter.”

“Wipe your face.”

Stella subconsciously touched her face. Only then did she realize that tears were all over her face.

Channing said, “If you’re worrying about Clarence, you can go there to have a look.”

Stella wiped away the tears on her face, yet tears kept streaming down her cheeks.

She said in a flat, calm voice, “I’m not a doctor. Is it useful even if I go there?”

When Clarence hugged her before, she heard his stuffy moan.

She knew he got hurt, but she didn’t know where the wound was.

Channing asked, “Do you hate him?”

Stella didn’t reply. Instead, she said to Emmett who was driving the car, “Find a hotel and let us get out

of the car.

Emmett pressed her lips together and groaned an answer.

No one in the car spoke again.

Half an hour later, the black car slowly drove into the underground parking lot of a high-end apartment.

Emmett took them upstairs and opened the door, “It’s raining outside, so it’s inconvenient to come to a

hotel. This was prepared for William before and it will be safe for you to live here. If you don’t want to

live here, I will find a new place for you tomorrow.”

Stella didn’t complain about it and thanked him, “Thank you.”

Emmett continued, “I’ve asked my men to buy some supplies for babies and deliver them here. They

will be delivered soon.”

Stella nodded her head, “Okay.”

Emmett looked towards Channing, “Then I will leave first. You shall accompany her here.”

“Let me send you downstairs.”

After their leaving, Stella held up the baby, found a bedroom and gently put the baby on the bed.

The baby grabbed a button of her cloth and refused to let go. He began to babble again.

Stella gently patted his back. When the baby had completely fallen into a sound sleep, Stella walked

out of the bedroom.

Channing was sitting on the sofa and the supplies sent by Emmett’s men were piled up in the living

room.

Stella said, “It’s late now. You can go to the bed.”

Channing pressed his lips into a straight line, “I’ve been keeping one thing a secret from you.”

Stella paused when she heard the words as she recalled something. Several seconds later, she asked,

“You learned about this a long time ago, right?”

Channing replied, “I thought he cheated you before and followed him secretly.”

Without any expressional change, Stella sat down opposite to him, “Go on.”

Channing continued, “Actually, he didn’t mean to keep it a secret from you. It’s because the child had

poor health when he was just given birth and the doctors would give them notice of critical condition

several times a week. The baby had illness, serious or light, continuously. He didn’t want you to face

frustration after giving you the hope.”

“Did he tell you about this?”

Channing nodded his head after a while of silence.

“Does the child always get sick recently?”

Channing replied, “It seems like his health has been improved in recent months. It’s just that he would

sometimes catch a cold, but the doctor said it was normal.”

Stella said in a flat tone, “Now that this is the case, why didn’t he tell me?”

Channing moved his lips trying to answer the question, yet was suddenly lost for words.

Stella said, “I know what you meant. You don’t need to make an explanation for him. I’ve asked him

about this numerous times, yet he would lie to me with various excuses every time. I could never get an

honest answer or learn about the truth from him.”

“But…”

“I’ve given him numerous chances.” Stella took a deep breath as if she was trying to control her

emotions, “Do you know if I didn’t go to the Conrad’s Mansion today, or if I didn’t show up in time, the

baby would have been smothered.”

“You said he doesn’t want me to face frustration after giving you the hope, but what’s the current

situation? If the baby died in Conrad’s Mansion today, will he keep it a secret from me for the rest of his

life? Will he take it as if the baby had died in that car accident?”
