Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 910

At noon, when Stella went out of the office and was about to have some water, Sherry stopped her and glanced at Elaine. "What's wrong with her? She was absent-minded all morning?"

In front of the cashier, Elaine hung her head and typed the keyboard mechanically. She was not as enthusiastic as she used to be.

Instead, she sighed now and then.

Stella shook her head. "I don't know. She has been like this since last night."

Sherry touched the chin and analyzed, "A typical acting of losing love..."

With this, she suddenly widened her eyes. "Could it be that she knows about Chan and Winnie?"

Stella said, "I don't think so. She has never met Chan when she came to City N this time. Besides, it could not be called "love" either. Just a favorable impression of a boy, like which was between boys and girls in their teenage when they met."

Sherry thought what she said made sense. "That's right. Who doesn't like handsome guys?"

But she soon remembered another question.

Sherry said again, "But if it weren't for Chan, who would it be? After she came to City N, she worked with us every day. I haven't seen her contact with other boys."

After a pause, Sherry was shocked again. "Does she love Clarence again?"

Stella, "..."

She walked to the tea room, put down her cup, turned to Sherry who followed her in, and said, "Impossible. She would rather keep a long distance from Clarence. Once she sees him, she run away

as fast as a rabbit."

Sherry was puzzled. "That's strange."

Stella turned around to take the water. "You'll know when you ask later."

As expected, while eating, Elaine sat between them, feeling more and more guilty under their gaze.

She said tentatively, "Stella, Sherry, you..."

Sherry took the lead and asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?" Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Elaine was surprised. "No."

"Then why are you unhappy all morning?"

Elaine said, "Well..."

She looked a little sad. "Archer said that he would go back to Riverside City in a few days and asked me to go back with him. But I want to go back and see... my father and great-grandfather. However, I am afraid that they won't let me come here anymore."

Stella was stunned. "Archer is going back to Riverside City? Did something happen there?"

"I don't think so. He said he would come back in a few days. Maybe he just wants to go back to visit his family."

Stella curled her lips slightly and did not speak for a moment.

"Archer hasn't been here for long before he suddenly left. Does he just want to see his family?"

"Or, does Noah..."

Sherry continued to say to Elaine, "Then go back and come with him. Your father and great-grandfather dote on you so much. It will definitely work if you beg them sincerely."

Hearing this, Elaine blinked her eyes. She was quite eager to have a try.

Then, Sherry came closer and whispered, "Tell me secretly, do you have a boyfriend?"

Being asked in such a mysterious and ambiguous manner, Elaine blushed. "No... no, I really don't."

Sherry observed her expression and faintly got an answer. "So there's someone you like?"

Elaine blushed more and lowered her head.

Sherry clicked the tongue. A girl fell in love for the first time, so shy.

She asked further, "Who is it? Do we know him?"

"He... he..."Elaine organized her words. "You don't know, nor have you seen him, but, but he..."

Seeing that she wanted to say something but stopped on second thought, Stella stopped thinking and said hesitantly, "Could it be Darnell James?"

Sherry was a bit confused.

There was a strange silence in the room.

After a while, Elaine nodded with embarrassment.

What a strange story with twists and turns!

Sherry also found it incredible. "Is... is he..."

She had originally wanted to ask whether he was that rumored terrible evil, but when she was about to speak, she felt that it was inappropriate. She thought about it carefully and said, "Is he that Darnell James who looks very similar to Clarence, and the one you... you should call him uncle?"

Elaine corrected her strictly, "I should call him uncle according to etiquette and seniority. But in fact, we are not related by blood."

"You are right, that's right. Didn't your father and great-grandfather ask you to marry him? I remember that you were very opposed to it, and you even escaped marriage to City N."

She lowered her head, clasped her fingers, and began to criticize herself. "At that time, I was too willful, and... I was also unreasonable. He should hate me very much."

Stella asked, "Then how did you... suddenly love him?"

Stella still remembered that when she was in Riverside City, Elaine still had a lot of prejudice against Darnell, and she liked her second uncle more.

It seemed that it had not been a few months.

Moreover, they should cancel the engagement after that.

Sherry also began to gossip. "Yes, yes, yes, how did things develop? Tell me."

On the few days after the engagement was canceled, Elaine was really happy from the bottom of her heart. She felt that she no longer needed to be bound by these old family rules. She no longer had the marriage arranged by others. She could bravely and freely find her true love.

She and Darnell James would probably never meet again in the future.

But not long after, she went to the restaurant with her friend and happened to meet him there.

Darnell had never shown up in public, so his friends didn't know who he was. They just pulled Elaine and screamed excitedly that he was so handsome and charming, and tried to ask for his phone number.

Elaine had been working hard to fight against this arranged marriage, so she neglected this. She didn't know whether she was infected by her friend's excitement, or she suddenly felt that his appearance was really in line with her taste.

When her friend went to ask for the phone number, she was stopped by Darnell James's men as expected.

When he heard the voice, he looked at her for two seconds, and then looked at her friend. He whispered to his subordinate next to him, then got up and left.

Then, when they went to pay the bill, someone had already paid it for them.

Her friend screamed again, "Did you see that? He just looked at me. He must be interested in me, or he wouldn't have paid for us!"

Hearing this, Elaine felt a little unhappy.

She couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

When she went back that night, she lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep. The scene he looked at her in the restaurant came to her mind all over the night.

He looked calm, gentle, but somewhat distant.
