Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 154

Sherry knew Stella wanted to make her leave on purpose, and she left the ward reluctantly. After she left, Phoebe sat on the couch beside her and said, “I heard that you’ve lost your child, I feel sorry about that.” Stella did not have any change in expression and she replied blandly, “There’s nothing to feel sorry of, it’s not mine, even if I did keep it, it won’t end up good.”

“Miss Radomil…”

“If you have anything you want to say, don’t mind me.”

Phoebe smiled. “It’s actually nothing, I just want to give some consolations, as for the others…” She paused and continued, “Maybe you’re not aware of this, but my father has sent men to fetch you the day you left the Conrad’s house. He wanted to take you to a safer place, but he didn’t expect that such an accident would happen along the way. Please don’t misunderstand my father, he did not have anything in mind, it’s just that I’m getting married with Clarence soon, and he might think that…”

She did not finish her words and was evasive, but Stella got what she meant. Phoebe was going to marry Clarence, and she as his ex-wife would only affect their relationship. Seeing her not saying anything, Phoebe said, “Of course, I certainly believe in you, it’s just that my father has his concern after all. My marriage with Clarence this time also connects the Conrad and the Steward family, he’s thinking for the overall situation.”

Stella only spoke after a few seconds, “I know what you’re trying to say.” Phoebe maintained the smile on her face and did not reply. Stella continued, “Don’t worry, the child’s gone, and I’ll have nothing more to do with Clarence anymore.”

“Then are you going to continue staying in City N?” Having heard that, Stella smiled too, yet her smile was too bland that no one could discern what she was thinking. She spoke, “Why not?” Phoebe probably did not see that coming and there was a slight change of expression on her face. Yet she quickly concealed it and said, “I thought after suffering all these, you’ll hate this place.”

“What I hate are just those people.” The reason why she fought so hard to leave was just to keep the little fellow in her womb. Now that the child was gone, she had nothing left, and she had nothing to be afraid of. “You’re right, Miss Radomil, I’ve been casual in my plans. If that’s the case, do tell me if you need any help in the future.”

“Thank you, Miss Steward, I appreciate that,” Stella said. “But I no longer want to have anything to do with the Conrad’s, so I’m sorry, Miss Steward, I don’t want to see you again too.” Phoebe could not help but let out a smile. “I thought we’re friends…” Stella was expressionless. “Do you really want to be friend with your fiancé’s ex-wife?” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Phoebe did not argue with her anymore this time and she slightly kept a straight face. She stood up and said, “You do have your own pride, Miss Radomil. I feel sorry for what you’ve been through.”

“I’ll wish you a Happy Wedding Day in advance.”

…

Stella went to Adolph’s ward when her health had improved, yet he was already nowhere to be found. The nurse said, “I suppose that man has committed something? The police looked for him a few days ago and he jumped out of the window the moment the police arrived.” Stella pursed her lips and did not reply. She thanked the nurse and returned to her room.

Stella was discharged after half a month. Before she went back to the little apartment she rented, she let Sherry took her to another place. She was taken away by the Conrad’s near the office of the SG Jewelry Magazine back then, and her things were still at the Starry Lake Mansion.

Alisa welcomed her when she saw her came back. “Miss Radomil, you’ve finally come back. I suppose you’ve not had lunch? I’ll make something for you…” Stella smiled at her. “Thank you, Alisa. I’ll leave as soon as I take my things.”

Alisa asked with care, “Do you have a fight with sir again?” She then sighed. “Mr. Conrad has gone for a business trip some time ago and has not come back until now. Why don’t you wait for him first?”

“No, thanks.” Stella was composed. “We didn’t have a fight, it’s just that he’s getting married soon, and I…” She paused and continued, “…no longer have a reason to stay here.” Alisa was not aware of that and she was full of surprise. After nodding at her, she went upstairs to pack her things.

Her things were not many in the first place and she managed to pack them within few minutes. As she took her luggage and went downstairs, she saw Alisa still standing there and was intending to say something. Stella said, “Thank you for your previous care, Alisa. I’ll leave now.” Alisa did not know what to say when she faced such a situation and she could only offer to accompany her to the entrance.

She could not help but say when they reached the entrance, “Miss Radomil, I don’t know what’s happened between you and sir, but sir has always been soft-hearted though he’s harsh in his words. He never meant what he said, you…”

She had been watching this couple being with each other for three years. Although they would sometimes have arguments, anyone could tell they were very fond of each other. Who would have expected such an ending? Stella stopped and she still wore her smile. “Thank you, Alisa, you can stop here now, I’ll visit you whenever I have the chance.”

“Oh, okay, Miss Radomil. Please take care of yourself too.”

Sherry whispered when she entered the car, “So Clarence let you go just like that?” Not knowing what Stella was thinking, she only spoke after being in a daze for a while, “He’s gotten what he wants, and he no longer has the reason to let me stay, plus…” She smiled blandly when she remembered Alisa’s words just now. “Clarence’s not here, he’s gone for a business trip.”

“Damn!” Sherry widened her eyes in disbelief. “What a bastard he is, how could he actually go for a trip when you’re in the hospital like that!” Stella did not mind that at all as she had already expected that. That child was totally a trouble to him. It would be a fortune that he did not celebrate it openly but just go for a business trip.

Channing had been waiting there when they returned to the apartment. Stella lied to him that she had gone travelling when they talked on the phone back then. Channing noticed that she had lost weight and her face was cadaverous. He glanced at her tummy and pursed his lips. He did not ask anything further and only took over her luggage, going upstairs without uttering a word.

Sherry said, “Since it’s rare that Chan comes, why don’t we have hotpot today? The weather’s turning cold recently, hotpot is the best.” Stella smiled. “Sure.”
