After dinner, Stella was about to go back to her room. Justin said, “Stella, would you please have a walk with me in the garden?”

Stella paused and nodded in agreement, “Sure.”

Right then, it wasn’t completely dark. The whole sky was gray. All dark clouds were gathering. It was quite humid. There should be a thunderstorm at night.

When Stella was looking at the distance in a daze, Justin said, “You are not used to staying here, are you?”

Stella withdrew her gaze. Pressing her lips, she didn’t deny.

Justin continued, “My father is quite stubborn. I need more time to convince him. Stella, I’m sorry but you have to bear such a life in the following days.”

After a moment of silence, Stella said, “Thank you, Mr. Conrad.”

“Not at all. I fully understand how you feel when being trapped without a chance to go out.” Justin looked up at the dark sky, “But, please don’t worry. Clarence wouldn’t leave you alone and ignore you.”

“Yes, he would ignore me.”

Clarence had said that once the Conrad family found out about her pregnancy, she must take the consequences all by herself.

He wasn’t wrong. She insisted on giving birth to the baby. No matter what happened, it had nothing to do with him.

Justine faintly smiled, shaking his head. He said steadily, “Clarence is always easy to lose temper and calm down. In the current situation, he needs some time to deal with other things. Please give him more time, Stella.”

Stella looked over at Justin. Suddenly, she felt quite sorry for him.

In terms of temper, character, and manners, Justin was way too excellent. He was a perfect man.

If he hadn’t had the car accident, how outstanding he would have become.

Even if Justin could only be trapped by the wheelchair all his life, he still attracted a lot of women. However, it seemed that he had trapped himself.

After a while, Stella said, “Mr. Conrad, it’s going to rain. Let’s go back.”
