The next morning, when Stella woke up, she found it dim and rainy outside.
The entire sky was shrouded in dense mist and it was bone-chillingly cold.
Such coldness prevented people from getting up.
She turned over and mumbled, "It's so cold today. How about lying in for a while?"
Clarence wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her forehead. "Okay."
Finding a comfortable position in his arms and rubbing against him, Stella put her leg on his body and continued to sleep with contentment.
Clarence was speechless.
He slowly opened his eyes. His temples throbbing, he could feel the desire surging inside his body.
However, the perpetrator was still able to sleep peacefully.
It had only been a few days since he knew that she was pregnant.
But it seemed as long as a century.
Clarence's lips tightened. His palm gently grasped her calf and he slowly moved it away from him.
However, Stella was used to sleeping while clinging to him. As soon as he moved her leg away, she moved closer to him. Her soft body was close to his, and she slept particularly soundly.
Clarence's brows twitched imperceptibly. He suspected that she had done it on purpose.
Stella was half-asleep when she felt a pain in the tip of her tongue and a little difficulty in breathing.
It was not the first time that Clarence kissed her while she was asleep. She habitually wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him in return.
However, after the man paused for a moment, he quickly let go of her and got out of bed to leave.
But probably because of still feeling a little angry, he turned back and bit her lower lip.
Because of sleeping in a daze, Stella felt a little pain and itch, but she didn't care but continued to sleep with the quilt in her arms.
When she woke up again, Clarence was not in the bedroom.
She yawned, lifted the blanket and got out of bed. Not until she brushed her teeth did, she find bite marks on her mouth.
It didn't hurt much, but remained a mark in the middle of her lower lip which was very obvious.
It was also very suggestive...
"Wretched man. I thought it was a dream in the morning."
After washing up, Stella originally wanted to cover it with something, but when she thought that she was pregnant and it was not good for her to use cosmetics now. Moreover, this bitemark was on a really embarrassing position that she couldn't cover it up at all.
She dawdled in her room for a long time before taking a deep breath and going downstairs.
In the living room, Archer and Elaine were having breakfast.
Elaine saw her and waved her hand happily.
"Good morning, Stella."
"Good morning. “Stella looked around. "Is Sherry still sleeping?"
Elaine knew about it well. She answered while chewing the sandwich, "Sherry went out with that man last night. It seems that she didn't come back all night."
"Daniel?"
Elaine nodded. "Yep!"
Stella sat down opposite Elaine. Daniel should have gone to the hospital yesterday. If with him, Sherry would probably be in the hospital as well.
She wondered what was going on with Chassell.
While Stella was losing in thought, she looked up and found that Elaine and Archer were both looking at her.
Stella was confused
Elaine pointed to her mouth and asked, "Stella, is there a mosquito in your room?"
"Puff—"
Archer couldn't help spitting out the milk in his mouth.
She turned around and met Daniel's gaze.
Daniel looked around and grabbed her by the shoulder before pulling her out of the ward. "Did you get scared?"
Sherry finally recollected himself and shook her head. "No... it's OK."
As she spoke, she handed the jacket over. "Your clothes."
Daniel took and put it on. At the same time, he said, "He should be fine here. I'll send you back first."
Sherry said. "Then... do you need to come back here later?"
Daniel nodded. "Yes, I have to wait for him to wake up."
Sherry glanced inside and exhaled.
She didn't know how long he would have to wait.
"Sherry."
Stella's voice came from a distance.
Sherry turned around and asked, "Stella, why are you here?"
Stella said, "I come to have a look and bring you breakfast."
After Stella finished speaking, Elaine immediately handed over the thermos in her hand and said, "Sherry, eat quickly. It's still hot."
Sherry accepted it and said with a smile, "Thank you."
Just as she was about to ask Daniel to eat with her, the doctor came out of the ward and said, "Congratulations. The patient has gotten through the crisis. From now on, he can be transferred to the general ward."
Stella and the others looked at each other.
Good news.
Stella asked, "When will he wake up?"
The doctor said, "I'm not sure. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. But sometimes, it could be ten days or two weeks later."
