Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 324

At night, when Stella was laying on her bed, she wanted to send a message to Channing but did not send it after thinking for a while.

It was the first time Channing had ever liked someone. Boys at this age were sensitive and would feel embarrassed easily, she was worried that she would hurt him if she spoke out the truth.

With this in her mind, Stella put down her phone and lay on her bed.

However, she could not sleep.

She tossed and turned on her bed for a while, and then she suddenly sat up and let out a long breath.

She should be happy that the wretched man was not there and no one was bothering her.

But for some reason, it was as if something was missing.

He had only been sleeping with her for a few days and she had already started relying on him.

After sitting against the head of her bed for a while, Stella picked up her phone again and sent a message to Clarence to ask him if he was still busy.

After waiting for twenty minutes, Clarence still did not reply.

It seemed that he was very busy.

Stella put her phone on the head of her bed, turned off the light and lay on her bed again, she then closed her eyes to force herself to sleep.

Tomorrow, she had to go to the Steward family and she was going to have a tough day there.

After a long time, her breath calmed down and she fell asleep finally.

When Stella was drifting off to sleep, she felt a chill behind her as someone approached her and pulled her into his arms.

Her breath was filled with a familiar smell.

Half-asleep, she asked vaguely, “Didn’t you say you weren’t coming back?”

The man’s voice was low and magnetic, “You miss me.”

So, he came back.

Stella did not retort, nor did she have the energy to do so, she was very sleepy.

When she fell asleep again, Clarence kissed her on the lips.

The first news that spread this evening was that the Steward family had successfully signed a contract with William, and the project was officially handed over to William.

The Steward family would be disintegrated step by step then.

It just depended on when Charles would realize what was going on there.

...

The next morning, when Stella opened her eyes, she saw Clarence lying beside her. She was stunned and thought that she had a dream.

Stella did not wake him up. She woke up and prepared breakfast instead. As she was about to wake him up, Clarence had already walked out of the bedroom.

Sitting in front of the dining table, Clarence asked, “Why do you go to the studio so early in the morning?”

Stella said, “Sherry went back to her hometown, so I have to be the decision-making person, that’s why I will be busy a bit, but…”

After pausing for a while, Stella said, “I am not supposed to go to the studio this afternoon.”

Clarence said, “You want to go to the Steward family instead?”

Stella nodded, “It cannot be delayed anymore.”

Two days before, she relaxed herself, or it could be said that she prepared herself.

It had been after a long time, if she still did not move to the Steward family, the public would reduce their attention towards the issue.

Clarence said, “After having breakfast, I’ll send you there.”

Stella opened her mouth, she wanted to reject at first, but she met Phoebe in the horse ranch yesterday, and if they were not a couple, Phoebe had already held grudges in her.

“Alright.”

Since she had decided to stay in the Steward family and this place was also going to be surrendered, she had to bring the essential necessities and the clothes that needed to be worn recently.

Stella packed them into two suitcases, but in addition to these, there were many winter and summer suits in the closet, which could not be worn at this time and could not be brought there.

She did not know where to put them.

Clarence saw her standing inside the bedroom. With a distressed look, he leant against the door frame and raised his eyebrows, “Do you want to put them in my house?”

Stella was speechless.

She refused without hesitation, “Thank you but no need.”

She could wait until Sherry moved and let the movers bring her stuff with Sherry’s.

After Stella had finished packing up, Clarence took the suitcases in her hand as she walked to the doorway, “Let’s go.”

Along the way, Stella opened the car window to enjoy the breeze.

She had mixed emotion.

Clarence looked at her sideways, “It’s not too late to regret now.”

“No.” Stella’s hair was a little messy because of the wind, she stretched her hand to straighten it, “You’re right, the truth is often cruel, but if I don’t do anything because I’m afraid, that would be truly cruel for those people who were hurt by Charles.”

Her biological father died in that explosion because of Charles’ trick.

Her mother, who had taken her into hiding and married Jeffrey, had died after giving birth to Channing. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

All those things were caused by Charles.

Even if she could not bring the dead back to life, she could not just stand by and watch him stay alive in this world with someone else’s name.

Clarence said, “Stella, please bear in mind that you don’t have to force yourself all the time, if you can’t hold on anymore, I’ll be with you always.”

Stella pursed the corners of her lips, she smiled uncontrollably, “Got it.”

Forty minutes later, the black Rolls Royce stopped in front of the Steward family’s gate.

Clarence helped her to take her suitcase, Stella looked inside, “This is it. I’ll walk the rest of the way myself.”

“The rest of the way will be difficult to walk.”

Stella smiled, “Even if it’s difficult, there will always be a time when it comes to the end.”

Clarence hooked his lips and wrapped his arms around her slender waist, then he landed his thin lips on her brow, “Protect yourself and call me whenever you need help.”

Stella nodded, “Okay.”

“Let’s go. I’ll watch you.”

Stella held the handle of her suitcases in her hand, she took a deep breath and walked towards the Steward family’s front door.

The two carved gates were slowly opened, but no one was around.

Stella looked at the long road, as if she could not see the end at one glance.

She turned her head to look at Clarence. The man was standing by the car. His black eyes were deep and quiet.

It was as if he would be ready to catch on her if she stepped back.

Stella waved her hand at him, “I’m going in, you can go back now.”

The corners of Clarence’s lips curled for a moment and he nodded gently.

Stella pushed the two suitcases and walked forward, one step at a time.

Once this path was taken, there was no turning back.

After walking for approximately ten minutes, Stella saw some buildings.

In between those buildings, there was a large garden in the middle.

In the garden, a few servants were trimming the flowers and the plants. It was as though they had been ordered in advance to ignore Stella.

She pushed her suitcases and walked towards the largest building.

If she guessed correctly, that was the main house.

As expected, just as she reached the doorway, she saw Charles and Phoebe eating breakfast.

Stella shouted softly, “Mr. Steward.”

Charles looked at her, “When did you get here? Why didn’t the maid send you in?”

Stella smiled faintly, knowing that this was his false politeness, and she did not back down, “I didn’t see anyone else all the way in just now, so I thought I had to come in by myself.”
