In front of Stella, he was always seen as someone who couldn’t control himself because his mood could easily be provoked by her, even if he wanted to push that kind of mood, it was still exceptionally difficult to do.
Stella hung up the phone, she didn’t want to hear his call. So now he could only drive home, but when he got back, Stella wasn’t at
home.
Anna knew there was something wrong between them. They had gone out together this morning, but now he came back alone.
“Where’s Stella?” She frowned and asked.
“She still had some things to do,” Nathan replied, not saying much either. He took the car key and left. Then he remembered something and turned his body around. “If Stella comes back, Grandma, call me.”
“What trouble are you causing now?” Anna asked in her stern voice.
Nathan didn’t answer, he turned and left the house, and Anna looked at his figure, sighing helplessly.
“I don’t know when that boy would fully understand his own feelings”
“Don’t worry, Madame. You will understand sooner or later,” said the butler respectfully and cautiously.
“I hope so,” said Anna, then sighed again. “Although it’s a young man’s business, so we, as elders, couldn’t meddle, still, look at Nathan, I’m really worried.”
Stella took the subway to hide from Nathan, she simply got on any train without knowing clearly where he was going.
However, after sitting down for a journey, her mood gradually calmed down. Then she looked at the map, once again choosing which
metro she should take.
As she was about to buy a ticket once again, she remembered the time she had rushed out of the car and hadn’t brought her wallet. Before, when she got on the subway, she only took a few dollars that were in her pocket. Now she really didn’t have the money to buy another ticket.
Luckily, her phone was in her pocket. So she took it out and called. When she called, she could see many missed calls from Nathan.
Stella didn’t mind and dialed Carol’s number, and since Carol lived near the subway station, Stella also wanted to see her.
Carol rarely rested, but today she had asked for time off. The moment she answered Stella’s phone, she was still in bed.
“Wait just a moment, I’ll go there now,” said Carol, immediately sitting down on the bed.
Carol is the kind of woman who should dress up or wear make–up when she goes out, but now that Stella was waiting for her, she naturally couldn’t waste time putting on make–up or dressing up. So she just grabbed a coat and fixed her hair. She didn’t even brush her teeth or wash her face, just changed her shoes and grabbed her car key.
She used her fastest speed to run there, and then she noticed Stella, who buried her little face in the shawl, lowered he looked at the ground.

“Stella,” Carol gasped for breath. “Come on.”
Carol then grabbed Stella’s arm.
“How can you have free time today? Is it because you know I’m free today, so today you’re coming to see me?” She said this and

immediately sensed that something was wrong with her, turning to look at her. “What happened to you?”
Stella’s eyes were red. Something really was wrong.
“Didn’t you go for prenatal care today?” She lowered her head and looked at her belly, then asked hurriedly. “Is the baby all right?”
Stella let out a deep sigh and shook her head.
“It’s okay, she’s fine.”
“Then why did you…” Carol frowned. “Did you fight with Nathan?”
“We fought in the hospital for a while,” Stella answered, ‘hooking her arm in Carol’s, then they walked slowly away.
Carol didn’t believe her, so she took off her mask and looked at her.
“Are you sure it’s just a fight for a while?”
As she had been crying for a long time before, her voice was a little hoarse.
“So you think how could we be? Use our fists to fight?”
Carol remained silent.
“Don’t worry about him, let’s go back to my place for tea. When you’re in a better mood, you can go home. If not, you can stay the

The Collins family is a rich and powerful family, naturally they would have a lot of family rules, and Stella couldn’t do whatever she wanted, she just came from an ordinary family. She thought that when everything was done, it would be better for her.
Returning to Carol’s house, Stella noticed how messy her room was. She laughed helplessly. Carol is always like that, she always dresses fashionably and beautifully, but with her own house, she’s always careless.
“Lately my laziness is increasing, so this room just…” She said and then grabbed her coat from the sofa and threw it on the floor to make room to sit down. “Come on, sit down.”
Stella didn’t go and sit down, looking at her condition, she just knew
“You haven’t eaten?”
“Stella, you really understand me. By the time you called, I was just sleeping lazily in my bed.”
“So you go and wash your face and brush your teeth. Then go out for breakfast,” said Stella, shaking her head.
Originally she had come here to talk to her, but now it seemed there was no time for that,
“Stella, you’re the best!” Carol ran over and kissed Stella’s cheek once, then hurried into the bedroom. “Inside the fridge should be eggs and some vegetables, you just make some plain noodles for me.”
Stella went into the kitchen and opened the fridge. The food inside was no longer fresh.
She knew there was a small supermarket nearby, so she took the opportunity that Carol was still in the bathroom, to go there and buy things to make some pasta. When she’d finished her meal, Carol hadn’t come out either.
