Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 69

When the doctor and the nurse left the ward, they saw Clarence. The doctor asked, “Are you her family. The patient…”

Clarence withdrew his lines of sights and replied coldly, “I’m not.”

“Then you…”

“I just walked pass here.”

The doctor was rendered speechless.

“How could you stand at the door and look into the ward for a long while if you just walked pass here?” The doctor thought in his heart.

When the doctor was about to leave, Clarence suddenly spoke, “She always has problems with her stomach. Please have a check on it.”

The doctor was stunned, “Stomach upset? What are the specific symptoms?”

“Nausea and keck.”

The doctor smiled gently, “Although it was the symptoms for stomach upset, I have to say that nausea and keck are the normal reactions of pregnancy since the patient has been pregnant for four months. Don’t be so nervous.”

Clarence, who was originally fixing his eyes on Stella, narrowed his eyes when he heard the words. His eyes became cold, “What did you say?”

“Nau… Nausea and keck are the normal reactions of pregnancy. Don’t… don’t be so nervous.”

“Others?”

The doctor replied tentatively, “The patient has been pregnant for four months?”

Clarence was suddenly lost in thoughts and the words that Stella said to him before popped into his mind.

‘Don’t you always want to know what I am thinking? Clarence, I am pregnant, and I need to plan for the future of my baby. I want half of your inheritance, and also the stock of the Conrad Group…’

‘Maybe it’s because I’ve never been on a catwalk before so I’m a little nervous. Whenever I’m nervous, I’ll get sick to my stomach and want to vomit. I’ll be fine after it’s over.’

‘I just found out that my…antacid is missing, I don’t know if I’ve left it in your office…’

‘It’s not mine. It’s Sherry’s… She is getting married soon with her boyfriend and they are preparing to have a baby.’

‘Isn’t Sherry preparing for pregnancy? As the child’s future godmother, it’s normal for me to buy these… things.’

Her lies were full of holes, yet he believed her words.

After the doctor’s departure, Clarence closed the door and walked into the ward.

Standing in front of Stella’s bed, he said with an indifferent and contemptuous expression, “Stella, you really regard me as a fool. I know your personality and quality, yet every time I was still fooled by you.”

Stella, who was lying on the bed, didn’t have any reaction.

Clarence looked down and found that although she was unconscious now, she was still protecting her belly with her hands covering it.

Four months.

She was really good at acting and he didn’t know about her pregnancy at all.

Stella wasn’t clear how long she had been sleeping. When she finally woke up, she felt muddle-headed and very uncomfortable. After several seconds, she finally became conscious. She recalled the scene when she fell into the swimming pool and immediately touched her belly.

Sending that the child was still safe and sound in her belly, she heaved a sigh of relief. She turned around as she wanted to know where she was for the time being, but her gaze met with a pair of black cold eyes in the air.

Stella suddenly bounced up from the bed and sat on the bed with the quilt in her arms. She looked quite nervous, “Mr… Mr. Conrad, why are you here?”

Clarence replied in a flat tone, “Who knows. Maybe I just walked pass here.”

Stella conjured up that it was Clarence who helped her out of the swimming pool before and uncontrollably tightened her grip on the quilt. She asked gingerly, “Mr. Conrad, was you who sent me to the hospital?”

Clarence simply fixed his black eyes on her. He didn’t reply.

Feeling uneasy, Stella shifted her gaze away. Why was Clarence starting her like this? She felt really uneasy under his gaze.
