Chapter 134


    After dinner, Ste was about to go back to her room. Justin said, “Ste, would you please have a


    walk with me in the garden?”


    Ste paused and nodded in agreement, “Sure.”


    Right then, it wasn’tpletely dark. The whole sky was gray. All dark clouds were gathering. It was


    quite humid. There should be a thunderstorm at night.


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


    you?”


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


    Justin continued, “My father is quite stubborn. I need more time to convince him. Ste, I’m sorry but


    you have to bear such a life in the following days.”


    After a moment of silence, Ste 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. rence wouldn’t leave you alone and ignore you.”


    “Yes, he would ignore me.”

    rence 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, “rence 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, Ste.”


    Ste 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 ident, how outstanding he would have be.


    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, Ste said, “Mr. Conrad, it’s going to rain. Let’s go back.”


    Justin nodded in agreement, “Okay. Let’s go.”


    ...


    Lying on her bed, staring at the strange room, Ste couldn’t fall asleep at all.


    The thunderstorm came as expected. The raindrops smashed onto the window like beating a drum,


    making noises in her quiet room.


    The worse was, Ste found that she was starved.


    It almost killed her.


    She lifted the quilt and sat up, looking out of the darkness outside the window, lost in thought.


    No matter what she did, it couldn’t stop the baby’s objection in her belly.


    When she was wondering if she should sneak downstairs to find something to eat, Ste saw a light


    sh outside the window. In an instant, she couldn’t open her eyes.


    She couldn’t help but wonder who hade in such ate stormy night.


    Ste also decided to give up the idea to sneak downstairs for food. She could just bear it.


    Tomorrow, she would ask the cook in the kitchen if she could have some snacks and fruits prepared.


    Ste pulled over the quilt and covered her head. She rubbed her belly, aiming to calm down the little


    fellow.


    Shortly after, she heard footsteps in the corridor. However, they stopped right in front of the door of her


    room.


    Ste was taken aback. For some reason, she suddenly had a hunch, wondering if the personing


    over was...


    She immediately got up, put her feed into the slippers, rushed to the door, and opened it quickly.


    However, when she saw the person at the door, the hope and light in her heart were gone gradually.


    Phoebe looked at her and slightly smiled, “Good evening, Ms. Radomil.”


    Ste was silent for a moment. She asked, “Good evening, Miss Steward. Why are you here?”


    Phoebe lifted an instion pail in her hands, “You are pregnant, so I’m sure you’ll get hungry easily. It


    might not be quite convenient here for you, so I brought you some food.”


    Ste pressed her lips and she didn’t take it over.


    Phoebe exined, “I’m always with Reba Jason during her pregnancy, so I know such things more


    or less.”


    “Miss Steward, thank you for your kindness. But, it’s not necessary.”


    As if she had read Ste’s mind, Phoebe said, “Ms. Radomil, what I said earlier today wasn’t to snatch


    your baby from you. In that circumstance, I’ll make Uncle Dempsey rest assured by saying that. After


    you’ve given birth to the baby, no matter you or rence will raise the child, I won’t intervene in your


    decision.”


    Ste said, “Miss Steward, you’ve misunderstood.”


    Phoebe was a bit surprised, “? Did I?”


    “No matter what, I’m rence Conrad’s ex-wife. For you, I’m the ringleader who has taken your


    beloved man from you. You don’t need to be so kind to me, Miss Steward.”


    Upon hearing it, Phoebe smiled, “Ms. Radomil, I’ve said that I only believe what I’ve seen on you.


    Besides, we are friends now. We should help each other, shouldn’t we?”


    Ste pressed her lips and didn’t speak.


    In this world, she feared that she would owe Phoebe any favor the most.


    Phoebe pulled her hand and pressed the instion pail into them, “Please take it. Don’t make mee


    here in vain.”


    She continued, “Ms. Radomil, if you feel quite bored here, you can call me over to apany you. Or,


    if you need anything, please let me know. I’ll bring them to you. I’ve been here a couple of times before.


    I don’t think Uncle Dempsey and Aunt Joanna would be against it.”


    “Miss Steward...”


    “Please don’t say thanks to me. I’m willing to do it for you.” As she spoke, Phoebe smiled at Ste and


    left.


    Ste held the instion pail, exhaling. Then she turned around and walked into her room.


    Sitting on the couch, she thought for a while before opening the instion pail. When she saw the food


    inside, she was a bit taken aback.


    ...


    After sitting in the car, Phoebe looked at the man next to her, “I’ve met Ms. Radomil. She should be


    fine.”


    rence’s face was cold and gloomy, “No matter if she’s fine or not, does it have anything to do with


    me?”


    Phoebe said, “rence you care about Ms. Radomil, don’t you? Otherwise, why would you be afraid


    that she’s hungry at night and deliberately send her...”


    Phoebe felt fortunate that she went to his house. Otherwise, it would be rence who sent the


    instion pail to Ste.


    rence interrupted her with an indifferent tone, “Someone asked me to send it to her.”


    Phoebe didn’t insist on asking who the person was. However, she could guess that the answer might


    not be quite pleasant to know.


    Half an hourter, the ck Rolls-Royce stopped at the gate of the residence of the Steward family.


    Phoebe reached out to push the door. After a few seconds, she looked back, “rence, would you like


    to go in and meet my father?”


    rence answered expressionlessly, “It’s quitete. Your father must have gone to bed.”


    Phoebe understood that he refused her. With a smile, she said, “It’s alright. After all, we’re getting


    married soon. You’ll have a lot of chances to meet him in the future.”


    As soon as Phoebe got off, the servant came over to pick her up with an umbre.


    rence said to the driver, “Drive.”
