Chapter 441


    Ste said, “Could you stop asking me such inexplicable and ambiguous questions?”


    “Ehn?”


    Taking a deep breath, Ste looked at him again, “You made me feel that I’m the birth mother of that


    baby.”


    This was the first time that Ste made it so clear to him.


    Before today, she had tried several times.


    However, after getting his answer, she denied her guesses.


    She wondered what was in rence’s mind as he extremely loved to ask her such questions.


    rence gazed at her with his ck eyes. After a few seconds, he chuckled, “What are you thinking


    about? Since you like that little bastard so much, I could be his godfather, so in the future, you


    can always meet him.


    After a moment of silence, Ste said, “Not necessarily, but thank you.”


    rence said, “You don’t have to answer me so hurriedly. You can consider it and reply to me after


    you’ve made up your mind.”


    When he finished speaking, his phone started ringing. He walked out of the kitchen to answer the


    phone.


    Ste put the pot on the stove and turned on the gas, staring at the red and blue fire in a daze.


    After a while, she suddenly felt a pain in her eyes.


    She guessed probably she had been overused her eyes for real.


    She rubbed her eyes, looked away, and started cutting the vegetables.


    rence couldn’t always mention the baby to her for no reason. She could guess two reasons.


    One was the same as she had guessed.


    If so, since a long time ago, rence had been deceiving her and always pretended to be calm.


    The second possibility was that he knew how much she liked that baby, so he wanted to use the baby


    to make it up for her.


    As she thought, she became absent-minded again. However, she forgot to put down the kitchen knife


    in her hand. Her finger was cut.


    When she felt the sharp pain, Ste came back to her senses immediately. However, the knife was way


    too sharp, which had cut her flesh. Red blood started to flow out.


    Immediately, she turned on the tap and washed the wound with cold water.


    After answering the phone call, rence walked in. Seeing the blood on the kitchen knife and the


    cutting board, he frowned and strode over, “Did you cut your hand?”


    Ste hummed, “Please get me a band-aid. It’s not a big wound. I...”


    Before she finished her words, rence had turned off the tap, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her to the


    sofa.


    “Sit down.”


    He turned around, took out the first-aid kit under the tea table, and found the Iodophor and cotton


    swabs, starting to sterilize her wound.


    “Hiss...” Ste felt the pain, “Be gentle.”


    The man pressed his thin lips slightly. He acted softly and continued, “I’ll take you to the hospital to see


    a doctor tomorrow.”


    “It’s just a small cut. Not necessary.”


    “For checking up your eyes.”


    Ste was rendered speechless.


    Inwardly, she cursed him to go to hell.


    He could never speak appropriately.


    After dealing with her wound, rence pasted a band-aid on it.


    Ste stood up and was about to walk to the kitchen. rence said, “Leave it to me. You just stay


    here.”


    “I’d better not...”


    Ste felt quite sorry for the pot, bowls, and tableware in the kitchen.


    rence cast her a cold nce as if he was asking whether she was doubting him.


    Ste said, “All right. All right. You can just turn off the gas. I’ll order some takeouts. I suddenly want to


    eat the barbecue.”


    Upon hearing it, rence didn’t insist. He walked to the kitchen and turned off the gas.


    Ste noticed his movements in the kitchen. Before she could ask him to leave everything there, she


    heard a cracking sound.


    She kept silent, couldn’t help wondering how could he smash things whenever he entered the kitchen.


    Anyway, the smashed things couldn’t be saved, so Ste didn’t want to nag about him. She pulled out


    her cell phone to order some takeouts. Thinking that rence didn’t eat spicy food, nor did he like


    barbecue or hotpot dishes, and he had a stomach problem, she ordered some light dishes.


    It was quitete when they got home. When the takeouts were delivered, it would be half-past twelve at


    midnight.


    While waiting for the takeout, Ste took her pajamas to take a shower.

    When she arrived at the door of the bathroom, rence walked out of the kitchen, standing in front of


    her.


    Ste was confused.


    He asked indifferently, “Aren’t you injured? Do you need my help?”


    Ste didn’t answer.


    She directly shut him off outside the bathroom.


    rence licked his lips, walking back to the living room.


    Sitting on the sofa, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number.


    Soon, Maxwell’s voice was heard on the phone, “Mr. Conrad, it seems that Amanda Byron was seen by


    Ms. Radomil.”


    rence hummed indifferently, “Problem resolved,” he said.


    “Is Ms. Radomil always staying here recently? Shall I move them to another ce?”


    rence raised his hand to pinch the nose bridge, “Don’t rush. Let me think about it.”


    Maxwell answered, “Okay.”


    “Has Amanda Byron always met her boyfriend recently?”


    “She went to meet him tonight. Then she was seen by Ms. Radomil. She didn’t meet him in the past


    few days.”


    Last week, Ste was also staying here, but Amanda and Dolores didn’t go out. Amanda went to see


    her boyfriend after several days, which shouldn’t be a problem.


    “I see. Keep an eye on her,” rence said, “I don’t have time to go visit them recently. Take good care


    of them.”


    Maxwell answered, “Yes, Mr. Conrad.”


    After hanging up the phone, rence bent down his head and looked at his shirt, which was half-wet.


    He went back to the bedroom and took his pajamas, breaking into the bathroom directly.


    When he was walking in, Ste was washing her hair. With the bubbles on her eyes, she couldn’t open


    them. Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, she hurriedly asked, “What are you doing?”


    rence stood next to her, unbuttoning the buttons on his shirt, “Take a shower.”


    Ste was speechless.


    Obviously, he didn’t only want to take a shower.


    After Ste washed away the bubbles on her head, she didn’t want to put on the shower gel at all. She


    grabbed the towel and was about to go out. However, after taking a few steps, she was held back.


    rence whispered in her ears, “You haven’t finished showering yet.”


    “I...”


    “I’ll help you. You are wee.”


    ...


    In the end, everything that happened in the bathroom was ended by the doorbell.


    Ste was too exhausted to move. She kicked rence, “Get the takeout.”


    rence raised his eyebrows slightly. Putting on his pajamas, he walked out of the bathroom to get the


    takeout.


    Ste showered again. Then she slowly put on her pajamas.


    She had been hungry earlier. Now her physical strength was spent, so she became more starved.


    Soon, she finished eating the barbecued food. Moreover, she started drooling at the food in front of


    rence.


    rence said slowly, “You can tell me if you want to eat anything. I will let you have some.”


    Ste didn’t try to be polite to him. She pulled the dishes to her directly, “I bought them. What’s wrong if


    I want to have some?”


    She was afraid that rence couldn’t have enough, so she had ordered plenty of dishes, which were


    enough for them both to have.


    rence looked at her, curling up his lips. Suddenly he asked, “Don’t you feel it’s more convenient to


    stay with me than staying in any other ce?”


    “Not really.”
