Chapter 108
“All right.” Stella nodded. “Do you know where Victor’s grandmother’s funeral is?”
“It’s at the fontere…” Carol thought for a while. “But Stella, I don’t think you should go. Right now you need to rest well, wait until tomorrow when you’re healthy, then you can go. Besides, tomorrow would be his grandmother’s funeral, you really should want to go.”
“All right! “Stella replied.
Originally, she wanted to call Victor to tell him about it and ask about his condition, but thinking about how busy he would be to accompany his grandmother, she didn’t want to bother him either, so she decided not to.
She hung up the phone, her grandmother came in, behind her was a maid, who brought her some dishes.
“Grandma.”
“I’ve just heard from Liam that you’ve woken up. You must be hungry after not eating anything for a day, right? I asked them to cook some pasta for you. Anna smiled and nodded.
Although she had no appetite, she knew she needed to eat a little.
While she was eating, Anna sat down next to her.
“Stella, what happened between you and Nathan? Are you fighting?”
Yesterday she sensed that something was wrong, just as she was about to start, even though Nathan kept asking about her whereabouts. She didn’t say, but he also found it strange that she didn’t want to call Stella. At that time she sensed something
wrong.
“It’s okay, Grandma.” Stella was surprised for a moment.
“Even though I’m old, I’m not blind. Besides, my heart is still sensitive, and you clearly have problems. Is it because he’s been looking for that woman for the last two days that it makes you angry?”
Stella shook her head.
“I’m not angry.”
Anna noticed her reluctance to say more, so she didn’t force her either.
“Stella, I just hope you’ll be all right. After all, you’re about to have your second child, and although Nathan married you first because he was forced to by me, but in this short period of time, I’ve seen him change. Last night, looking at how bad the weather was and his phone was dead, he didn’t say anything, he just went out and looked for you. “She sighed.
“Grandma, I’m going to…”
Stella’s mood wasn’t very good, during dinner she only ate a little, then went to bed early.
Apparently Nathan hadn’t eaten again, and until she went to sleep, he hadn’t returned.
Just as she was drifting off to sleep, she heard a sound inside the room, opened her eyes with difficulty and then saw the coldness in Nathan’s eyes.
He was standing next to the bed and bent his waist to see her.

Chapter 108.
They were very close, his breath fell on her face, possibly he hadn’t expected her to wake up suddenly, so at that moment his face looked a little artificial.
“You’re back.” Stella turned her body, because she wasn’t used to the way he looked at her, so she stood with her back to him. “Oh, right, last night, thanks for coming to find me…”
“Thank you…” Nathan’s voice was a little teasing. “That word is so polite…”
“If I hadn’t come to you, wouldn’t you have been fine too? How could Victor let you get into trouble?”
Stella listened as he engaged Victor again, she frowned and didn’t plan on caring about him. She remembered her call to Carol this afternoon that he was fighting with Victor on the mounta
Her ignorant attitude made Nathan’s anger inside his heart grow deeper, he grabbed her shoulder and turned her body to face him. Stella struggled with his hand, but she noticed the bruise in the corner of his eyes, she was frightened for a while.
“Did you get into a physical fight with Victor last night?”
She knew about the tension between them, but in the past the two had only fought verbally or had a disagreement about something, but how could they get into a physical fight?
“Did you start the fight because I came to you?” Stella asked. “Victor’s grandmother passed away, I just went to help look for him. His grandmother is gone, I feel very sad too. She was always very good to me too, I just want to go and comfort him, accompany him Nathan, why are you always misunderstood? And do you have to cause trouble for no reason?”
Stella didn’t know why she explained so much to him.
She didn’t really need to care about his thoughts, because according to their agreement, each of them couldn’t meddle in the other’s private business.
“Why, are you heartbroken over Victor? Are you afraid I’ll hurt him?” Nathan narrowed his eyes and smiled coldly. “Right, in your heart, Victor is really important. When he has problems, how can you not worry? So you didn’t say anything and just looked for him. But when you ran out, did you think about your son inside your womb? Last night you had a high fever, if it wasn’t going down, then what would happen to the child? And Liam?”
Stella massaged her temple.
“I don’t want to fight with you. I didn’t look after myself when I was ill, that was my mistake. I’m also grateful that you were worried and came to me. But Nathan, you don’t have to meddle in my affairs. Whatever I want to do, I don’t need you to care…”
She didn’t finish the sentence, Nathan interrupted her.
“That you don’t have to care, that you don’t have to interfere. Stella, you really are capable enough. You always tell me that you and Victor are in a pure relationship, why couldn’t I see that?”
“Then it’s because you’re so narrow–minded! You think everyone is like you.”
“In your heart, Victor is such an ideal man, a kind and polite man? And me, just narrow–minded?” Nathan’s hand gripped his chin. “If Victor is as you think, then tell me, why did he kiss you?”
Stella was startled, her mind full of his words…
Victor kissed her?
When had he kissed her? Why didn’t she have any memory of it?
