Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 155

Yet Channing kept a straight face and said, “She can’t eat spicy food after recovery.” He exposed their lies at once. Both Stella and Sherry became speechless. Sherry turned around and whispered, “I think your brother must have worked for CIA before, nothing would escape from his eyes.” Stella nodded. “I think so too.”

Channing ignored them and walked straight out when the lift door opened. He was not angry that they had kept the truth from him though, he knew Stella was worried that he would look for Clarence when he knew that, and he indeed could not do anything to him with his current capability. Yet it turned out he was not informed of such a huge matter at all. He did not even have the courage to ask Stella how the child in her womb had become now.

Sherry had been ordering food online when she lived there and there were not many vegetables and fruits at home. After glancing at the fridge, Channing turned around and went out. Sherry only heaved a sigh of relief after the door was closed. She felt she was revived once again. “Chan has an exact same temper as you, how scary.” Stella was baffled as she thought she was gentle. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Sherry could not help but ask after a while, “Could it be he’s going to deal with Clarence with that aggressive look?” Stella replied, “He won’t.” She knew Channing, he was not an impetuous person that acted without thinking of the consequence. Sherry patted her chest. “Good to hear that.”

Not long after that, Channing carried two big bags of fresh fruits and vegetables and returned. He then headed straight into the kitchen. Sherry peeled an orange and handed half of the orange to Stella. She sighed. “It feels so good to have a younger brother. If I have such a handsome and caring brother, I won’t get myself a boyfriend until I die. Hey, do you think Chan’s interested in elder or younger female? I wonder whether I have the…hey!”

Stella shoved the orange into her mouth and let out an aggrieved smile. “Come on, you’ve watched him grow up since he’s little, how could you actually have thoughts on him?” Sherry engulfed the orange

and smacked her lips. “It doesn’t hurt to dream though.” Stella was speechless.

Sherry then continued after a while, “Hey, didn’t I sell my house, I don’t want to buy another house now, and I plan to start my own business and open a workshop. Let’s do it together, how does that sound?” Stella was startled. “Me?”

“Yeah, let’s open a workshop. You do the jewelry’s design and I’ll do the photography and advertising part. If we encounter any rich client, we could even give her a set of personalized pictures for free.” Stella thought for a while and said, “Let me think about it.”

“Sure, take your time.” Sherry knew what she was concerned of. After all, it was the SG Jewelry Magazine which provided her platform and chance when she returned to the career.

The afternoon time soon passed by. Channing was making soup and the smell spread to the living room with the wind. Sherry held a package of potato chips and came. She stood at the entrance of the kitchen and smacked her lips. “Chan, if you ever have a girlfriend in the future, please don’t forget me and your sister, and come home to visit us.”

“…”

During mealtime, since Stella could not drink alcohol, and it was also mainly because of Channing forbidding her to do so, Sherry drank hers. Before they finished their meal, Sherry had placed one of her legs on the chair and started to curse Clarence. Stella rubbed her temples and smiled blandly. She said to Channing, “You can go home first, I’ll take care of the rest.” Channing looked at Sherry who was singing with chopsticks and asked, “Could you really handle it?”

“It’s fine, it’s not the first time she goes drunk already,” Stella said. “If you don’t leave now, the hostel is gonna close.” Channing looked down at his wristwatch. There was indeed not much time left. He then said, “I’ll come visit you during weekend, do have a rest.”

“Okay. Do be careful on your way back.”

After Channing left, Stella held Sherry to her bed and covered her with a blanket. She then turned around to clear the table. After finishing clearing up everything, she opened her luggage and took her things out one at a time. Her eyes glazed over at length when she saw the baby clothes. She only regained her mind when she heard Sherry vomiting behind her. She walked towards the toilet and patted her shoulder. “I told you not to drink so much.”

Sherry clung to the toilet bowl, puffed and turned around. “I was happy about it.” She then opened her eyes with difficulty and shook her fingers. “Stella, let’s start all over again. We should start afresh. I’ll forget that son of a bitch, and you’ll forget that bastard! From now onwards, we’ll date playboys, and flirt with tons of men. We’ll see who’s bad then!”

“…” Stella did not expect that Sherry could be that talkative when she was drunk. “Alright, back to bed.” Sherry hugged her and not knowing why, she began to cry. “I mean it, Stella. Please date someone properly. Clarence Conrad is not worth it. Do you know how perfect it was when you’re with Horace? I’m even you two’s biggest fan. I can’t believe both of you end up like that…”

Stella did not know whether to cry or to smile, she only patted her back. “Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you. I’ll date someone tomorrow.”

“That’s a promise then, don’t you regret,” Sherry said with teary eyes. “The fastest way to forget a relationship is to quickly start a new one. I have to get myself together too!”

Stella finally got Sherry back to her bed once again after wasting much effort. Sitting at the edge of the bed, Stella was melancholic and she thought it was true, people always needed to start over. It was pointless to keep on dwelling on the past anyway. What she faced now was actually within her expectation, it was just that she had been dreaming of the surprise that did not belong to her.

Stella exhaled and patted her face to let her looked a bit healthier. Since she managed to survive after going through such a disaster, she should at least look like she was living.

Meanwhile, in Aqock City…

Nathan came over with a phone after the meeting ended. “Mr. Conrad, Miss Steward called.” After finished, he then added with a soft voice, “It’s been the twenty third time today.” Clarence pinched the bridge of his nose and took it over with an expressionless face. The moment the call was picked up, Phoebe’s voice was heard. “Where are you, Clarence?”

“Do I have to inform you my whereabouts?”

Phoebe was speechless and she only said after being silent for a while, “I just want to tell you, our wedding is gonna be one week later, your family can’t contact you, and they keep on asking me…” Clarence was expressionless and he replied, “Cancel the wedding then.”

“Why?”
