The next morning, when Stella woke up, the little one was already sitting on the bed playing with his
toys.
She got up and looked around. Clarence was truly sleeping in the sofa to calm himself down.
She carried the child downstairs on tiptoes without waking Clarence up.
In the kitchen, Dolores was already cooking breakfast.
In the dining hall, Archer also sat down on time to doze off.
She put the child on his dining chair and asked Archer to keep an eye on him. Then she went into the
kitchen to help.
Dolores asked, “You were not scared yesterday, were you?”
Stella shook her head gently. “It was a bit dangerous. But fortunately, they were not seriously injured.”
Dolores sighed silently. “Whether it is in City N or Riverside City, accidents happened all the time. It
must be hard for you.”
“I am fine with it.” While speaking, Stella took the egg custard in Dolores’ hand and paused for a
second before saying softly, “Let me help you… Mom.”
Dolores said quickly, “It’s a little hot, so you should be careful.”
Stella nodded, “Okay.”
Dolores turned around and went to get a spoon, and only then did she realize what she just heard. She
looked back at Stella and asked with disbelief, “What did you just call me?”
Stella smiled and said again, “Mom.”
Pausing for a few seconds, Dolores' lips curled up. “When did you get the certificate?”
“Just two days before coming to Riverside City.”
“When is the wedding?”
Stella replied, “I don’t know. We still need some time. If possible, probably the end of the year.”
Dolores smiled. “Good. It’s also what I have always been wishing for. If Clarence dares be bad to you,
just tell me.”
“Thank you, Ms…. Well, Mom,” Stella replied.
Dolores patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry. You will get used to it.”
…
After the breakfast, when Archer was about to go upstairs, Stella followed.
He asked, “What is wrong?”
She looked back. Not far away, Clarence was playing with the child.
She lowered her voice and said, “If Clarence asks you about my condition, don’t tell him the truth. And
don’t tell him about the cord blood either.”
He was confused. “Why?”
“If he knows, he won’t agree.”
He leaned on the rail and pondered for a while before speaking, “I got it. I won’t say anything.”
Although it sounded easy, in fact, improving her physical condition to have another child was difficult.
During the whole process, Stella would suffer a lot. Even if she was lucky enough to get pregnant, she
might have some adverse reactions due to her medication and injections. So it would definitely be
much harder for her than when she gave birth to the first child.
She said, “We'll talk again after you have dispensed the medicine.”
“Okay,” he replied.
She turned around and was about to leave when he called out to her.
“Is there anything else?”
He said, “Although I did not tell you the details, you should have felt that things won’t be so easy. So I
want to remind you again that you’d better think carefully about it…”
She smiled, “There is nothing to think about. I've made up my mind.”
Though the process might be hard, it would not be as painful as the time when she thought her child
was gone.
“Okay, I got it. Wait for me.”
“Thank you,” she said.
A week later, Winnie’s show was officially broadcast.
Although many people belittled the show, it still became a frequenter in the "What's Trending" list via
different tags.
One of the tags was anticipated, #FloraAlvin&WinnieTruman.
Under this trend, Flora’s team spent a lot of money on marketing. Most of the comments were saying
that Flora looked more beautiful than Winnie and there were many comparisons between the two.
As for Winnie’s side, although she did not have a team now, she had high popularity among people.
And her fans were loyal to her. Though Flora spent money on marketing, most of the people thought
Winnie obviously looked better than her when they stood together.
In addition to this trend, several tags of other stars in the show also appear on the trending list.
However, at this time, a trend suddenly rose up to number one.
It was #WinnieChanning.
Posted under this tag was a video clip with the most views, in which Winnie and Channing were
working together to find clues in a room.
The lighting and backdrop were just right. People who watched this felt it looked more like an romantic
drama than a variety show.
Many fans and netizens clicked into this trend because of Winnie, but most of the comments were
about Channing.
“Help! Who is this boy? Is he a new star? He is so handsome!”
“Why do I feel that he looks familiar? Did he participate in some shows before?”
“I also find him familiar. I don’t think he's ever appeared in any show. If so, he must've been on the
trends already.”
“No more guesses guys! I'll tell y'all the truth. Hes my husband, so y'all can leave now.”
“lollll wait. i remembered. is he Ms. Radomil’s younger brother? when Ms. Radomil was wrongly
accused by Phoebe Steward, i saw him. but there were so few of his photos so I was not so sure”
“Sisters, it’s him! Channing Radomil! There was news that he'd signed with JH Film Company. I didn't
expect he would really appear on screen!”
“I remember he was a top student in school. Straight-A student in the entertainment industry? That's
rare”
“Don't roast me fangirls. Winnie and he look like a perfect match. She is a beautiful actress and he is a
handsome young man with high IQ. I'm a Channie shipper now…”
“Yes, I feel the same way. Channing is good-looking and truly smart. And he is a real gentleman, much
better than that scum Chassell. If Winnie can be with him, I'll wake up in the middle of the night
laughing out loud.”
The trend #WinnieChanning stayed on top of the trending list for a long time.
Gradually, nobody discussed about Flora and Winnie.
The show’s ratings were also rising and it reviews were getting better.
Those people who were badmouthing the show disappeared quickly as if they had never appeared.
As for Channing’s side, the account that his company registered for him got more and more followers.
From several thousands to more than a million followers, it took less than a night.
His agent called him and asked him to post something on his Twitter to interact with his fans, or post a
selfie.
He flipped through his phone album and could not find a proper photo.
When he was about to give up, he saw a photo suddenly.
It was the first day when he recorded the show. Stella and Sherry went to visit him. Sherry secretly took
a picture and sent it to him.
In the photo, two vague figures stood in the noisy recording studio with their backs facing the camera.
He couldn't even remember what he was talking to Winnie at that time.
