Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 216

When Stella woke up, she felt too fragile to move. Opening her eyes, she struggled to sit up. In an instant, she felt the whole world spinning.

She shook her head with strength. Suppressing the urge to vomit, she rushed to the bathroom.

After a long while, Stella rubbed her tummy and walked out of the bedroom. She looked quite weak, feeling quite uncomfortable.

Hearing the sounds outside, Sherry stuck her head out of the kitchen. “Stella, you are awake. I’m cooking the hangover soup for you. It’ll be ready soon. Just wait for a bit.”

Stella pulled a chair from the dining table and sat down. She lay prone on the table weakly and answered, “Okay...”

A few minutes later, Sherry came out with a bowl of hot hangover soup in her hands. “Stella, drink it.”

As soon as Stella took over the bowl, she felt her stomach turning again. She retched several times, but her tummy was empty so she couldn’t throw up anything.

It took her a long while to drink the hangover soup in difficulty.

Stella felt that she wasn’t so uncomfortable even when she had the morning sickness for the pregnancy before.

After finishing the soup, she lay prone on the table again as if she was about to sleep.

Sherry was sitting opposite her with both her arms on the table. She asked tentatively, seemingly she was gossiping, “Stella, do you still remember how you got drunk last night?”

Stella opened her eyes gradually, trying her best to recall. “The wretched man asked me to attend a card game with him. He also asked me to play cards on his behalf...”

Sherry continued to ask, “Then?”

“Then...”

What happened the previous night started flashing through Stella’s mind. She remembered that she had been to the ladies and encountered Madison there. When she went back to the box, everyone else had been gone except for Clarence.

She wanted to leave as well, but he said that she must have the right attitude when begging someone. Hence, he asked her to drink.

Stella didn’t know how much she had drunk. Anyway, she couldn’t remember anything afterward.

Recalling about it, suddenly, she supported her head with her hand and asked, “By the way, how did I come home last night?”

Sherry coughed and answered according to Clarence’s answer. “I went to pick you up.”

Stella was confused. “Did I call you?”

“Nah. A waiter called me. He said you blacked out in a box after getting hammered and asked me to go pick you up.”

Stella supported her chin with a hand in a daze, looking forward aimlessly.

After a long while, she said, “I see.”

To complete the show perfectly, Sherry patted the table angrily. “That wretched man is a jerk! You have been hammered already, but he left you alone there. What an asshole!”

Stella shook her head, exhaling. “That’s good, then.”

It seemed that Clarence had lost interest in her now.

Sherry whispered, “Stella, that wretched man treated you this way. Aren’t you feeling sad?”

Upon hearing it, Stella faintly smiled. “It’s just cutting the loss in time.”

Honestly, what they had done last night was nothing compared with those things that happened in the past.

If they kept pestering like this, Stella didn’t know what would be happened in the future.

Hence, she was quite happy with the current ending.

Stella held the table and stood up. “Sherry, please wait for me for a moment. I’ll get changed and we can go to the studio together.”

Sherry said, “You’d better take a rest at home today. Please leave everything in the studio to me. I don’t think you can work in such a status.”

As soon as she stood up, Stella felt her brain buzzing. She didn’t insist stubbornly but nodded in agreement. “Okay. I’ll go back to sleep then.”
