The next day, after finalizing the house Stella wanted to rent, she moved into the house with the little luggage she had.

Sherry and Channing did not let her clean up the house and asked her to just sit and rest.

Stella lay on the sofa. She ordered afternoon tea for them while thinking that she was still quite happy actually.

The child would be taken care of well as he or she had such a good godmother and uncle.

She lowered her head while thinking of the child and put her hand on her belly lightly. She wasn’t sure whether she grew fatter recently, or the child had grown up. Her belly turned slightly bigger.

Sherry had to work that afternoon so she only could ask for a two-hour leave. She bought Stella a bunch of groceries, “Stella, I can’t take care of you anymore, so you must take good care of yourself. Don’t get starved.”

Channing came out of the kitchen, “I will take care of my sister.”

Stella laughed, “Don’t be like that. I am not a child. Don’t worry about me so much.”

“You’re not a child but there is a baby in your belly,” Sherry said. She came closer to her belly, “Baby, be obedient. Don’t torment your mother, or else I will beat your little ass when you are born.”

Not long after Sherry left, Stella said, “You also go back first. I can clean up the rest myself.

“No,” Channing said. “I’ll stay here with you for a few days, and I will leave after you are familiar with the surroundings.”

Stella couldn’t help but smile, “Do you really want to treat me like a child? I am your sister.”

Channing replied to her seriously, “I will only stay here for a few days so that people know that there is a man at your home and will not look at you like a girl living alone and bully you.”

Stella who was smiling froze for a moment, and she did not reject his kindness, “Then I’ll buy a single bed for you. Then later you can come and live here.”
