Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Stella was squatting down beside the emergency ward when Clarence arrived at the hospital. She curled up and

was looking down.

Clarence pouted and approached Stella. He knelt as well, “He’s going to be fine.”

Stella raised her head and looked at Clarence when she heard Clarence’s voice. Her eyes were swollen and red.

Clarence stroked Stella’s hair and pulled her into his arm. Then, he continued to stroke her back.

At the same time, the signal light in the emergency ward went off, and the door opened.

Stella quickly stood up and wiped away her tears.

A doctor walked out of the emergency ward and said, “You’ve sent the kid here in time. He is now stabilized.”

Stella finally felt relief. Before you could relax, the doctor continued, “But his condition is complicated. He’s stable

now but…”

Stella froze when she heard what the doctor said. Her nose stung, and she was choking with sobs, “But what?”

Clarence stood aside, and he looked tense.

Noah was lying on the bed, and he was breathing shallowly. His fists clenched, and he had rashes all over his body.

He didn’t feel comfortable in his sleep.

The doctor said, “This is the first time we’ve seen such a condition. We weren’t sure what’s the course of the

symptom. All we can do was to stabilize his condition.”

Stella stared at Noah and muttered, “You’re saying that what happened today could happen again in the future?”

The doctor nodded, “Yes, and if we couldn’t find the source of his condition in time. He might get worse.”

Stella’s knees felt weak. She almost fell to the ground.

Clarence hugged her shoulder and supported her. He looked at the doctor and asked, “What could possibly cause

his condition?”

“We’ll have to discuss with the specialist before giving you an answer. We’ll revert to you latest by tomorrow

morning.”

“Alright.”

“I’ve got to go now. Please, observe him tonight. Call us if there are any changes.”

Clarence helped Stella to sit on the couch by supporting her by her shoulder after the doctor left. Then, he said,

“Stay here. I’ll come back soon.”

Stella held Clarence’s hand and asked bitterly, “It’s not an accident, is it?”

Stella brought Noah for a body check a few days earlier, and the doctor told her that Noah was a healthy child.

Noah was a little weaker and slower in growth compared to the other kids due to premature delivery. He could get

sick easily, but his current condition looked suspicious.

The doctors couldn’t even find the source of Noah’s condition.

Clarence said softly, “Don’t worry. I’m here. It’s going to be alright.”

Stella shut her eyes, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Clarence raised his hand and wiped away Stella’s tears, “Be good. Stay here and wait for me.”

Soon, the door of the ward shut.

Stella stood up and sat beside the bed.

It seemed like Noah felt the itchiness of the rashes in his dream. He kept scratching them.

Stella held Noah’s hand and gently rubbed on the spot he scratched.

Noah went back to sleep after a while.

At the same time, the door was quietly pushed open. Madison whispered, “Can I come in?”

Stella tucked Noah in and wiped away the tears on her face, “Come.”

Madison closed the door and walked to the bed. She looked at Noah, who was covered in rashes and said, “If

scolding me makes you feel better, please do so. I won’t fight back.”

“Why should I scold you?”

“I promised that I’ll take good care of him, and look where he is now? I’m responsible for it.”

Stella shook her head, “It’s not your fault.”

Madison wasn’t capable of doing this.

But Stella couldn’t figure out how Noah became like this.

…

Nathan quickly approached Clarence after he got out of the ward, “Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence looked sulky. He ordered Nathan, “Investigate everyone in Conrads’ Mansion who went to the backyard

earlier.”

Nathan took his order and got to it immediately.

The Conrads’ Mansion had been under their surveillance after Joanna’s death. It’d be easy to find out these people.

Donald walked over when he saw Clarence, “You’re suspecting people in the Conrads’ Mansion?”

Clarence sounded cold, “They won’t have any chance other than that period.”

Donald took a deep breath. He didn’t know what to say.

Joanna was dead, Dempsey was paralyzed, and Justin could only move in his wheelchair. Everyone in the Conrads’

Mansion looked so vulnerable that they might die anytime soon.

If they did that to Noah, the Conrad family members could be extinct in City N.

No one would ever remember their existence anymore.

Clarence continued after a while, “Go and find out if there’s any similar condition in the country. Update me if you

find anything.”

Donald replied, “Sure.”

Clarence wanted to walk into the ward again. The moment his hand landed on the doorknob, he saw Stella leaning

beside the bed and helped Noah to scratch places where he felt itchy.

Clarence pouted his lips and retracted his hand. Then, he walked away from the ward.

Stella didn’t sleep the whole night. She was watching Noah until the next morning.

Clarence came back at dawn. He whispered, “Take a rest. I’ll watch him.”

Stella shook her head. How could she fall asleep?

Clarence pulled Stella’s hand over, “The result will be out in a few hours. You won’t have enough energy if you don’t

sleep now.”

“You didn’t sleep as well.”

“You’re not me,” Clarence said, “Come. Should I take care of him, or should I take care of you if you fell sick too?”

Stella didn’t say anything. She walked to the couch and laid down.

Stella shut her eyes, but she was awake.

Time flew. It was raining outside, and the sun never came out. The gloomy sky spread over the city.

Stella didn’t even know when she fell asleep. She had a few nightmares. It was all about Noah got sent into the

emergency ward, and he was crying his heart out.

However, Stella couldn’t do anything but watch.

The heartache was so intense that it almost suffocated Stella.

“Stella. Stella.”

Someone was calling Stella’s name.

Stella woke up, and she immediately sat up.

Sherry was standing in front of her. She took a breath of relief when she saw Stella woke up, “Finally. Did you have

nightmares? You were crying.”

Stella immediately touched her face. There were tears on her cheeks.

Stella looked at the bed, but she didn’t see Noah.

She quickly got up, “Where’s Noah?”

“The doctors took him out when I came in. Clarence wanted to you rest more, so he didn’t wake you up.”

Stella rubbed her temples. Then, she started to put on her shoes, “How long were they gone?”

Sherry answered, “Around ten minutes.”
