Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 969

The following day, after Clarence had completed the discharge formalities for Stella, the people from the post-pregnancy center arrived.

Only the twins and Dolores were in the ward.

Clarence's eyebrows twitched unnoticed, and he went next door.

Stella was sitting at the bedside, playing with a toy with Noah. They were so joyful.

Clarence leaned at the door and watched before walking in, taking the toy from Noah's hand, "It's bedtime."

Noah pouted and withdrew his hand, ignoring him.

Stella snatched the toy back, "It's not even noon yet. Why sleep?"

"What do children do if they don't sleep?"

The doctor had indeed explained that Noah should rest more.

He had already been playing all morning.

"Baby, you should rest for a while. Mommy will call you when it's time to eat."

Noah obediently answered and closed his eyes.

Stella pulled up the blanket for him and patted him gently.

After a while, Clarence said nicely, "Are you going to sit here until he is discharged?"

Stella didn't want to talk with him.

Clarence sat down next to her and put his arm around her shoulder, "It's okay if you don't want to go today, but you always have to go tomorrow, the day after..."

"I've said I don't want to..."

Clarence eased his tone, "I know you're worried about Noah, but don't forget, those two lying next door are our children."

Stella opened her mouth but could not say anything to refute.

Clarence continued, "If you go to recuperate, they can be taken better care of. They are so young. Can you bear to keep them in the hospital?"

"The operation has been successful. Your duty has been done. Leave the rest to the doctor."

Stella nodded in compromise after a long while.

However, she still waited until she had fed Noah his lunch and lulled him before going to the post- pregnancy center.

Dolores accompanied her the whole time, and Clarence stood there until she was about to get into the car. Then he wrapped her in his arms, "Don't worry, I'm here."

As the weather had not yet turned hot, the wind was tinged with a hint of coolness. Stella wore thickly a densely knitted hat and a scarf, revealing only two watery eyes.

She nodded, "Don't be too tired."

Clarence smiled and let go of her, watching the vehicle leave.

Dolores said as she sorted out the things when they arrived, "Now that you are here don't be paranoid. Your only mission now is to nurture your body."

Stella looked at the two children sleeping next to her and nodded with a smile, "Mom, I know."

Dolores knew her well and added, "You need rest, or you will get depression. You had been before… In a word, take it easy. Clarence, Archer, and so many doctors are around Noah. When you recover, Noah will also be fine."

However, how could Stella be relaxed?

She exhaled slightly, "I will adjust myself."

"That's right. You have suffered so long. Now the light comes soon."

Stella had completely adjusted to the situation by the end of the day.

After feeding the twins, she said, "Mum, there's a nurse here with us, so you can go back and rest."

Dolores had been with her recently, taking meticulous care of her almost every day.

Dolores put the baby back into the cot, "I'm fine. I'll just sleep on the sofa later."

The nurse aside said, "Don't worry. We are all professionals, would keep our eyes on her. Your daughter-in-law is filial."

Stella added, "Right, mum. Go back and bring me some clothes, by the way. I want to drink your fish soup."

Hearing her pampering, Dolores smiled, "Okay, you go to bed early at night. Don't overthink."

Stella agreed, "I know."

After Dolores left, Stella looked at the twins sleeping together in the cot and thought about what Clarence had said this afternoon.

She had never observed them so carefully since they were born.

Clarence was right, they were also her children, but she had given more attention to Noah.

Thinking about this, Stella couldn't resist letting out a long breath.

She indeed had an oversight.

The two little girls' skin had gone from wrinkled when they were first born to being increasingly pink and smooth.

They were like soft, sticky little dumplings.

Sometimes when Stella held them, she felt they had no bones and was afraid of hurting them.

After a few days, Winnie and Sherry came to see her, bringing gifts for the children.

Sherry looked around the room and sighed, "It's so big here. It's the first time I've seen such a big room in a post-pregnancy center."

Winnie teased the twins while saying, "Clarence is always prodigal." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Stella smiled as she sipped her soup and said to Sherry, "If you can get married and have a baby this year, I'll pay for this room."

Sherry was surprised.

Her voice instantly got much smaller, and she wasn't envious, "No, no, thank you."

And then she spoke out of the blue, "Look at you. You've given birth to two at once. How about giving me one?"

"Go and have your own."

"Didn't you and Daniel go home together for New Year's Eve and haven't decided on a wedding yet?" Winnie said.

Sherry bristled, "They've all been arranged. I just need to be there on the day of the wedding."

Immediately after, she continued, "When are you going to have the wedding?"

Stella paused, then laughed out, "How can I? I can't even wear my wedding dress."

Sherry was a bit regretful, "I thought we could have it together."

Her parents felt that since they were getting married, the sooner the wedding was arranged, the better.

Daniel held the same opinion.

"Then tell me in advance when your wedding time is set, and I'll put off work," Winnie said.

"According to my parents and Daniel, it should be in May and June. By the way, your father... "

Halfway through the sentence, Sherry instantly realized Winnie was still here and stopped abruptly.
