Chapter 274
The young woman looked over at rence, who looked aside. Immediately, she said, “Ms. Radomil, I
happen to have something urgent. Could you help me look after the baby for a moment, please? I’ll be
right back.”
Ste nodded in agreement, “Sure.”
The young woman pushed the stroller over, “His things are all there. Thank you so much, Ms.
Radomil.”

Ste smiled, “It’s alright. Please don’t mention it.”
After the young woman left, rence said, “There’s a bench over there.”
Ste followed his gaze, only to find a lounge next to the kid’s corner.
She held the baby and walked over. After sitting down, she looked for a toy for the little fellow while
asking, “Mr. Conrad, when did you go to their house?”
rence answered calmly, “While you were dating Emmett Carter.”
Ste choked up.
Why couldn’t the wretched man speak properly?
He started to talking ironically again.
Ignoring him, Ste started ying with the little fellow while holding a toy.
The baby seemed to gain some weight since she met himst time. His little face was round, looking
more ruby, quite healthy.
Soon, the baby started to grub about in Ste’s arms. He should be hungry now.
Ste found a thermos cup from the stroller. However, since she was still holding the baby, she passed
the thermos cup to rence, “Mr. Conrad, please open the lid for me.”
rence took it over and find the form milk powder from the stroller. He directly made the form
milk.
Watching his skillful and natural movements, Ste was in a daze.
She had to admit that rence probably could be a good father.
rence shook the feeding bottle and met her gaze. He raised his eyebrows, “Do you want to drink it
as well?”
Ste inhaled deeply. She wasn’t in the mood to speak a single word to him. Directly, she took the
feeding bottle from his hand and let the baby hold it while sucking.
Right then, an old woman sat down opposite them with her grandson. Watching the scene, she said
with a smile, “You are truly a loving couple. I see you took your baby out for fun. Nowadays seldom
youngsters would take care of their children just like you.”
Another old woman who was with her goddaughter echoed, “Exactly. Young couples also let their
parents take care of their children now.”
“This baby looks so pretty. Sure enough, the parents’ genes are way too important.”
Ste felt a bit embarrassed under theirpliments. She exined, “This is not my baby. His mother
left for something urgent. I’m helping her take care of the baby.”
The first old woman felt surprised. She said, “Isn’t this your baby? His nose and eyes look like yours. I
thought...”
rence chimed in tly, “All good-looking people look alike.”
The woman chuckled, “It makes sense.”
The other old woman, who was taking care of her granddaughter, said, “Girl, hurry and give a baby to
your own baby. You can’t waste your good genes.”
“He’s not...”
“I’ll try hard,” rence said.
Ste turned around and red at him. The wretched man was talking nonsense again.
rence curled up his lips, his ck eyes full of amusement.
Not far from them, Logan watched the scene. He squinted, lost in thought.
Right then, he felt a tug on his hand and heard a girl’s voice, “Dad, my brother wants to go home now.”
Logan squatted down. Staring over at Ste and rence, he whispered, “I’ll ask the nanny to pick you
guys up. I have something to do now.”
“But...”
Logan turned around and cast her a nce, and the girl dared not to speak again.
After around half an hour, the young woman returned.
She said while panting, “Ms. Radomil, Mr. Conrad, I’m sorry it took me so long. Sorry for keeping you
wait.”
Ste said with a smile, “It’s alright. I’m not busy anyway.”
After chitchatting for a moment, the young woman left with the baby.
Ste stood motionlessly while gazing at their receding figures and couldn’t return to her senses for a
long time.
rence stood next to her. With one hand in the trousers pocket, he cast her a nce and said, “Why
are you so sad? If you want to see him again, I’ll take you over.”
Ste heaved a sigh in silence, “No, thanks.”
“Ehn?”
Ste looked at him, “No matter what, he’s others’ son. It’s alright for me to see him once or twice. Why
would I go to see him often?”
rence said, “You’ve always overthought. That’s why you suffer a lot in your life.”
“Yes, I do overthink. Anyway, you would never know how disgusting a man is if he keeps interrupting
another person’s peaceful life.”
rence was silent.
Ste picked up her purse and left without looking back.
rence strode to follow her. He said calmly, “Ste, I didn’t break the peace of your life. Your life
wasn’t peaceful originally. Without me, it would be worse.”
Ste didn’t speak. What he said was true, so she couldn’t retort at all.
If she hadn’t met him in Twilight Club, probably she had been in hell long ago.
rence pulled her wrist, “The elevator is over there.”
“I want to go shopping. Can’t I?”
rence smiled, but he didn’t release her, “Of course.”
Ste struggled a bit but failed to pull out her hand from his grip.
While she secretly struggled, rence suddenly said, “Ste, this is the second gift for you.”
Ste didn’t return to her senses yet. Subconsciously, she asked, “What the second gift?”
“For our second anniversary.”
Ste’s lips parted. For a moment, she couldn’t find the right words.
rence said slowly, “When I give you the gift of our third anniversary, should you forgive me then?”
Ste was silent.
It was her first time hearing someone said that she “should” forgive him.
Seeing that she was silent, rence said, “You may forgive me before that as well.”
Ste pressed her lips, raised her head, and looked up at him, “Mr. Conrad, are you sure that I’ll forgive
you for sure?”
“Not really. I’m quite nervous. You just can’t tell.”
“Probably it’s because you are too cheeky, Mr. Conrad.”
rence asked, “So, what’s your answer?”
Ste instantly felt that his gaze was burning, which made her unable to look into his eyes.
Subconsciously, she looked away. After a long while, she said, “I... I don’t know...”
rence stared at her and said, stressing each syble, “What don’t you know?”
Ste felt that she would almost blurt out her answer, but her left reason kept stopping her.
She had to admit that deep down in her heart, she had already submitted.
However, it took her a lot of courage toe out of her bad marriage when they divorced.
She had never expected that after going through so many things, they went back to the starting point.
It was because of that, she couldn’t convince herself to restart with rence.
Ste said solemnly, “Mr. Conrad, I don’t know what you want exactly.”
