Chapter 789


    Ste also didn’t know if she had be thinner recently. However, due to the medicines that she had


    been taking daily, plus other messy stuff, she didn’t have much appetite.


    After a few seconds, she found an excuse, “I’m trying to lose weight. It seems that it did work. Haha...”


    As she spoke, Ste met with rence’s gaze again. He pursed his thin lips and maintained a serious


    face even when she joked.


    He looked kind of scary.


    Ste poked his chest and said in a small voice, “What is it? Don’t you want to eat?”


    After a while, rence only said, “You said that you’re hiding something from me before. Tell me what


    it is.”


    Ste paused for a moment before she withdrew her finger, “But you were also hiding something from


    me...”


    “I’ve already told you. Now it’s your turn.”


    Ste had actually forgotten about this.


    She turned around and took the dinner te, “It’s not something serious, not very shocking or terrifying.


    It’s just... I don’t want to talk about it now.”


    rence gripped her wrist, “Why aren’t you joining the fashion week?”


    Ste heard what he said and kept quiet for a few seconds. Then, she turned around and looked at


    him, “Too many things happened recently. It’s going to be too rushed for me. I don’t want to tire myself,


    so I’m not going...”


    “Do you think I believe that?”


    Ste let out a sigh and replied jokingly, “Believe it or not.”


    rence obviously didn’t intend to joke with her. His expression was cold and solemn, “Speak.”


    Ste hadn’t seen him like this for a long time. If it was because she wouldn''t go to join the fashion


    week, he shouldn’t be that angry.


    After thinking about it, Ste suddenly realized something, “Did you meet Sherry? What did she tell


    you?”


    rence said, “No need to mention her. Talk about yourself.”


    Ste probably had been suffering from the medications and injections during this period. Her appetite


    wasn’t good either. Therefore, she had been suppressing some kind of hidden anxiety and anger.


    And now, seeing his bad attitude and tone towards her, her temper instantly came up. She threw the


    things in her hand, “If you don’t want to eat then forget it. It’s not like I''m begging to serve you.”


    After saying that, she threw rence’s hand away and walked straight back to the bedroom.


    rence looked at her figure with a headache. As he was about to follow her behind, he saw the ice


    crumbs that were cleared out from the trash can and suddenly thought of the box that Ste had


    blocked from his sight not long ago.


    He slightly frowned, turned around, and opened the refrigerator.


    Other than some fresh fruits and vegetables, in the innermost corner was a white foam box.


    …


    After returning to the bedroom, Ste copsed on the bed and closed her eyes.


    She felt a kind of emotion running wild in her chest, undting.


    It felt as if there was a fire in her heart.


    Extremely annoying.


    Ste pulled up the nket and covered her head to sleep.


    After some time, when she was still in a daze in her sleep, she felt someone hugging her from behind.


    Despite the fact that she was still asleep, Ste didn’t forget to be angry. She kicked him away and


    moved her body forward.


    Soon, the person behind her came up to her back again, hugging her a little tighter than just now,


    pressing his long legs against her so that she couldn’t move anymore.


    Ste woke up with anger.


    She said unhappily, “Let go of me.”


    rence whispered to her, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”


    Ste said, “You only realize this now?”


    “I’m sorry for my attitude just now. Babe, don’t be angry, okay?”


    Ste still didn’t want to pay attention to him.


    rence said, “Let’s get up and eat.”


    “I’m not hungry.”


    “But I’m hungry.”


    “It’s none of my business that you’re hungry.”


    rence stopped talking and directly carried her up.


    Ste let out a cry of surprise, turned, and stared at him, “What are you doing!”


    rence directly carried her out of the bedroom. The dining table was full of Ste’s favorite food.


    Although she didn’t have much appetitetely, after seeing these foods, Ste felt a little hungry.


    rence ced her on the chair, “Eat quickly. It’s going to get cold soon.”


    Ste pouted, “Did you ask Nathan to get this?”

    rence sat opposite her and said lightly, “I went to buy it myself.”


    Upon hearing that, Ste’s hand that was holding cutleries paused for a moment.


    He bought them himself?


    Ste looked at the food on the table. It was all oily and spicy food. These foods could only be found in


    smaller restaurants.


    It was hard to imagine a germaphobe and picky person like him would run several ces just to buy


    food for her.


    Furthermore, among them were many of those that rence had forbidden her to eat before.


    It was right that a person should eat something they like when they are unhappy.


    After eating, Ste felt much better. She even let out a burp.


    rence pulled a tissue to wipe her lips, “Is it good?”


    “It’s fine.” Ste took the tissue from his hand and wiped herself. “Seeing that you''re quite sincere about


    your apology, I’ll forgive you.”


    rence smiled, “Really?”


    Ste said, “Barely. After all, I’m not an unreasonable person.”


    rence said, “If that’s so, let’s have a good chat.”


    Ste was speechless.


    Why was he so persistent?


    She turned her head, “I don’t want to chat.”


    rence sat beside her and took her hand. Ste wanted to pull her hand back, but her fingers were


    tightly sped, and couldn’t resist him.


    rence said, “I know what you’re thinking. But you have to listen to what I have to say first.”


    He continued slowly, “Archer had told me about the cord blood.”


    Hearing this, Ste turned her head abruptly, “Why did he...”


    “Regarding this matter, you shouldn’t have hidden it from me.” rence’s eyes stared at her, “How long


    do you think you can hide it from me? A few months, or a lifetime?”


    His tone was slow and gentle, mixed with some anger and helplessness. Ste couldn’t help but choke


    a little, feeling a little wronged. Tears rolled down her cheeks, “That’s not what I mean. I said I don’t


    want to talk about it now. But you kept on asking... What can you do even if you know? There’s no


    other solution now isn’t it...”


    rence pulled her to his arms andforted her in a low voice, “It’s okay. It’s all my fault.”


    Ste choked, “It was your fault in the first ce.”


    rence gently patted her back, “Did you think that I wouldn’t agree to you in doing this? Is that why


    you didn’t want to tell me?”


    Ste didn’t say anything else. She just buried her head in his chest, sobbing in a low voice.


    rence said, “This matter is inherently risky. Moreover, no one will know what is the final result. The


    reason why I didn’t agree is that I didn’t want you to suffer only to hope in vain.”


    “But it would be irresponsible to just give up without even trying.”


    “I’m the irresponsible one, not you. You shouldn’t feel guilty about it.”


    Ste knew what he was referring to. She said in a stifled voice, “Don’t talk about this. I only want the


    little one to get better as soon as possible. You are supposed to handle the rest.”
