Donald, who was on the other end of the phone call, fell silent for a few seconds before asking, “Wait, something’s not right. Aren’t you supposed to be with…”

- “I am her boyfriend, do you have something to say about that?”

- “Why not, didn’t I coax his wife today?”

Donald was feeling like a complete dumbass for what he had done that night.

He tried to defend himself and said, “Vincent James is the one at fault here, he was the one who gave me this number!”

As soon as he finished saying that, he hung up the call, and made another call to Vincent to berate him.

On the other side, Stella heard the noise coming from her phone. She shook her hands and kept the phone near her bosom.

The driver quickly opened the car’s door when he saw that both of them were approaching the car.

As Clarence escorted Stella into the car, he said to the driver, “Go to the Starry Lake Mansion.”

Stella objected to his decision, “No!”

Clarence turned around and looked at her with a dark expression, “Where do you want to go, then?”

Stella replied, “Anywhere but there.”

Clarence put on a slight pout, and gave another address to the driver.

During the journey, Stella was feeling even more nauseous and wanted to vomit.

She leaned outside the window and tried to vomit, but nothing came out of her mouth.

Clarence patted her on the back, smirked and said, “Experiencing the consequences now, aren’t you?”

Stella ignored him and enjoyed the cold wind coming from the window. After a while, she replied, “Back when I was pregnant, I’ve experienced worse than this.”

“...So, are you drunk or not?”

“Don’t you know that drunken people still have some semblance of rational thinking?”

After that, she did not say anything else, and let the wind blow her hair into a mess.

It did not take long for Clarence to pull her back into the car and close the window.

A short while later, the black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of a condominium in the city centre.

Clarence asked, “Are you gonna walk or do you want me to carry you?”

“I’ll walk myself.”
