When Stella woke up, the room was dark with heavy curtains.

She just thought of getting up. One hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her back.

In the next second, she fell into the warm chest of the man.

Clarence's low-pitched voice sounded, “Why don’t you keep on sleeping?”

“I am getting a headache because of sleeping.”

“The doctor said that you are overly tired. Just sleep for a while. What do you want to eat? I will ask Nathan to bring it over.”

Stella said, “I have no appetite.”

Clarence said, “You have to eat whether you have an appetite or not. You don’t want to pass out again, right?”

Stella was silent and did not say anything.

After a short while, she felt the people behind her move slightly. The wall lamp was turned on, and the faint orange light spread out without a trace.

When Clarence got up, Stella also sat up. And she asked, “What time is it?”

Clarence lowered his head and glanced at his watch. “1:30 in the afternoon.”

Stella rubbed her head, “I have slept for so long?”

“Nah, not long enough. Just get more rest, and I will wake you up for the meal.”

After the conversation, Clarence walked out of the room.

Stella really couldn't fell asleep. She lifted the quilt and got out of bed, only to find that she was wearing a men's shirt.

Stella got speechless.

In the living room, Clarence is calling Nathan.

Stella passed by him, walked to the table and poured a glass of water.

Clarence turned around, staring at her, with his eyebrows raising unconsciously.

When she brought her back from the hospital, Stella smelled of disinfectant, so he put his clothes on for her directly.
