Stella put the baby into the cot, and then nonchalantly asked Clarence to go out, “Mr. Conrad, can you leave? I want to sleep.”

Clarence looked up at her and spoke slowly, “It is only called sleeping when two people sleep together. Otherwise, it is called resting. Are you saying this because you want me to sleep with you?”

Clarence was speechless.

What kind of nonsense he was saying!

Stella was just about to tell him to get lost immediately when the phone in her bag rang.

She was afraid of waking up the baby and went to answer the call hurriedly.

After seeing the caller ID, Stella glanced at the man sitting on the sofa. Then, she walked into the bathroom.

Before the bathroom door was closed, Clarence heard her pick up the phone and the word “Emmett” came out of her mouth softly.

Clarence put down the book in his hand and pursed his thin lips together.

In the bathroom, Stella pushed the window open again after closing the door. Then, she said, “Is anything wrong?”

Emmett said, “I heard from Sherry that you went to Aqock. Did you have fun there?”

Stella smiled faintly, “I’m fine here. The pace of life here is a bit slower than at City N. It is comfortable staying here.”

“Hearing you saying like that makes me want to go and have a look too.” Emmett paused and spoke slowly, stating her intention, “Stella, how long will it be before you… probably return?”

“It should be two or three days.”

Emmett continued, “They’re organizing a class reunion during the weekend. Are you going?”

Stella said, “I’ll see whether I’m free at that time. But… didn’t we just have a class reunion not long ago? Why are we suddenly having another reunion again?”

“Last time there were only a few of us. This time all our classmates are coming. If you are not going, I’m not going either.”

Hearing his words, Stella was quite stressed. She thought about it for a while before saying, “Then I’ll ask Sherry first and see what she says.”

Stella wasn’t a woman who liked to mess with many people. Moreover, most of her classmates were unfamiliar with one another and they didn’t contact one another after graduation.
