Chapter 739: Hypocrisy
Chapter 739: Hypocrisy
In the room, Stella Monroe had been cut off from the outside world for almost a week, and she was melancholic with blank eyes.
Seeing Leah Lowell bring the medicine in, she finally regained some energy and drank the medicine in one gulp.
As Leah was about to take the medicine bowl away, Stella suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"Ma-Madam," Leah asked somewhat guiltily, "Do you have any other instructions?"
Could it be that she’s noticed something?
Stella sighed and asked, "Have you spoken for me, persuading Henry Stanton to let me out?"
Leah breathed a sigh of relief internally, nodded, and said, "I did, but the master said you should calm down for a while first."
"Damn it!" Stella cursed and stood up irritably, pacing back and forth.
Suddenly, she stopped again and said to Leah, "Tell Henry Stanton that it’s been a week already. Pregnant women need to have weekly checkups. I need to go to the hospital for a checkup, he must let me out. Also, tell him I’ve calmed down, I won’t talk about divorce anymore."
"Alright." Leah nodded and turned to leave.
Stella watched Leah’s figure disappear at the door, her face turning ugly.
These days, her feeling of pregnancy sickness unexpectedly vanished, perhaps the medicine had expired, and the fetus-preserving medicine was almost gone. Moreover, she simply couldn’t contact Felix Jennings, so she must get out, find a way to see Felix Jennings, and get more "fetus-preserving medicine."
Just as Stella was waiting anxiously, the door was suddenly pushed open.
It was Henry Stanton.
Stella’s eyes brightened, she quickly approached and said, "Henry, I’ve thought it over and calmed down. We’ve gone through tough times together, we can’t really divorce over such a little thing."
Henry’s eyes relaxed slightly, and he asked, "Have you really thought it through, not planning to divorce?"
Stella reached out to touch her flat stomach, revealing a motherly expression and said, "I already have a child in my belly, why talk about divorce? If we divorced, what would happen to the child without a father? What I said back then was just angry words, I didn’t expect you to take them seriously."
Hearing this, Henry reached out and pulled Stella into his embrace.
Stella endured the discomfort and continued, "It’s just that you need to give me some time to prepare, if we suddenly return to our hometown, I will certainly not be able to adjust. Give me a bit more time, alright?"
"Alright." Henry readily agreed and said, "Today someone happens to contact me, they think it might be worth considering acquiring our company, I’ll meet and talk to him. If we really talk things over, it will take at least a week. In this week, you should be able to mentally prepare yourself."
"What?!" Stella was shocked, Henry’s actions were indeed fast!
But thinking of her situation, Stella forced herself to calm down, gave a stiff smile, and said, "I understand, I should be able to mentally prepare in a week."
As long as she could see Felix Jennings today, everything would still be in time, Felix Jennings definitely had a way!
Stella continued, "Today I have to go to the hospital for a checkup, you go and handle your matters, I can go by myself."
"How can that be? I’ll go with you for the checkup first, then see the other party. My son is much more important than money!"
Stella quickly persuaded, "Once you successfully talk things over, there will be plenty of time to accompany me for prenatal checkups. There’s no rush now."
Henry thought for a while, it made sense, and agreed.
"Alright, I’ll call two bodyguards to protect you closely, right after the prenatal checkup return home immediately, to avoid any trouble with so many people outside."
Stella quickly nodded her head like a pecking chicken.
After sending Henry away, she retrieved her mobile phone.
