Clarence added, “I meant can you please not move to another place in the future?”

Stella slowly turned her head to look at him.

Only now did she vaguely realize that Clarence was not in a good mood when talking with her today.

In the past, he used to talk to her in an imperative, overbearing and unreasonable tone.

Stella wasn’t sure whether it was her illusion or not that there was a touch of begging in Clarence’s voice.

Clarence met with her gaze and felt bewildered.

Stella suddenly reached out and touched his forehead, “Are you sick?”

Clarence was rendered speechless.

He pulled down her hand and grabbed it in his palm, “Nope.”

“Then why did you say those strange words?”

Clarence frowned “I asked you not to move out of the mansion. Is it strange?”

Stella nodded her head seriously, “Isn’t it strange? In the past, you would use words like ‘can’t’ ‘not allow’, but not ‘can you please’.”

“Is there any difference?”

“Of course. The words ‘can you please’ sound not as overbearing as the above-mentioned words.”

Clarence was amused, “Don’t chew on the words.”

Stella pouted, “Did you do something behind my back and therefore feel sorry for me? Or did you have the other woman outside?”

“Go back early. You have an illusion as you’ve overstrained your nerves.”

Stella was lost for words.

This wretched man still had a sharp tone!
