Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 50

Before Jolie finished introducing herself, she and Liam looked uneasy simultaneously.

Liam was very shocked. By rights, it was impossible for Stella to know Jolie. But how did she know that her surname was Young.

When he met Stella’s eyes again, he could feel the warning in her eyes.

He quickly realized what she was thinking and told Jolie, “They’re calling you over. I have to accompany my girlfriend now.”

“Is having a girlfriend a big deal?” Jolie averted her eyes and left there reluctantly.

Liam went to coax Sherry, “Don’t be angry. She’s like that. She likes to joke around, but it’s my fault that I didn’t introduce you two to her clearly.”

Sherry moved away his hand, “I’m not angry. Never mind, you just go and accompany your friends. Don’t mind me.”

“I do not want to accompany them, of course I want to be with you.” Liam whispered something in Sherry’s ears, then he pulled her outside. Sherry walked a few steps and turned around, “Stella, wait for me for a while. I’ll be right back.”

“Okay.”

Soon after they left, Jolie approached Stella again, holding two glasses of wine in her hand, “Oops, I’m really sorry for just now. I will punish myself with a glass of wine.”

Stella said, “I don’t drink.”

Jolie retracted her hand embarrassedly, “I heard from Liam that you are a jewellery designer. You must be quite good. When are you going to design jewellery for me? I will help you to promote it to my friends so that they will come to find you to design for them.”

Stella smiled, “Nice. The price of the customized jewellery will be at least two hundred thousand Yuan. If Miss Young wants to buy, you can pay the deposit now.”

Hearing her words, Jolie’s expression slightly changed, “Two hundred thousand?”

Jolie thought that Stella was not a famous designer and she thought the jewellery would only cost ten or twenty thousand at most, but she didn’t expect that it would be at least two hundred thousand.

Stella added with a friendly tone, “This is just the design fee, not counting the cost of the materials needed to do the jewellery.”

Holding her glass, Jolie’s became a bit unfriendly, and said perfunctorily, “Then I’ll think about it.”

Just as she was about to leave, Stella’s voice came from her back, “Ms. Young, your tactic to drive a wedge between them is really nasty.”

After Stella finished her words, she did not care about her anymore and left straight away.

When she walked to the door, she met Liam and Sherry who came back from outside.

It was obvious that Sherry had been coaxed by Liam, and she asked Stella, “Stella, where are you going?”

“I’m going to the toilet.”

“Then I will accompany you.”

Hearing her words, Liam became very nervous and he hurriedly said, “Sherry, didn’t I say that I would bring you to meet my friends and colleagues? None of them have ever met you…”

Sherry looked at him strangely, “I can meet them when I come back after accompanying Stella to the toilet also right?”

Liam who was very nervous became stunned and didn’t know how to answer her question.

Stella smiled coldly when she looked at Liam’s anxious face, thinking that he was so brave to two-time Sherry and was finally afraid now when he knew that she might reveal his cheating.

Stella ignored him and only looked at Sherry, “Sherry, I’ll go by myself. I will be back in a minute.”

“Okay,” Sherry said. She warned her that the road to the bathroom was a bit slippery and asked her to be careful.

“Okay.”

After Stella left, Liam pulled Sherry to his side and complained to her, “Baby, you care more about her than me.”

Sherry looked unhappy and said, “Why do I need to care about you. You are a man, not to mention that Stella is pregnant now…”

She realized she had said something wrong so she stopped talking.

But Liam who heard her words was curious. He asked her a few questions, “Is she pregnant. But didn’t she get divorced? Then who is her husband? They must have been married for three years, right? Why did I never see him before?”

Sherry pushed him away, “Stop. Don’t ask so many questions. Go do what you need to do.”

Liam looked at Stella’s back and thought about something.

Why did she hide her pregnancy from the public if she was married, unless it was…

Stella came out of the toilet and washed her hands. Just before she was about to leave, she met her acquaintance.

When Annie saw her, she was very furious, “Why are you here!”

“Is this place owned by your family?”

As soon as she finished her words, she regretted saying them.

Because the Conrad family might really own the place.

Luckily, Annie did not sneer at her, but she glared at her with hatred, “Did you follow Horace here? Why are you such a shameless woman! If it wasn’t for you, Horace and I would have been engaged a long time ago.”

Stella looked at her calmly and said indifferently, “What does it have to do with me? Isn’t the marriage in your family always decided by your parents? What do you take me for?”

Annie froze before she realized that Stella was taunting her. She blushed and turned angry. When she was about to slap her, she thought of something and retreated her hand, “Stella, I’m warning you, if you still pester Horace continuously. Next time the one you meet won’t be me again.”

Annie was usually impulsive but she was not a fool. During this time, she could clearly see that she was not the only one who wanted to make the marriage happen.

Her uncle seemed to want her to marry Horace even more than she did.

Stella replied, “Okay.”

She didn’t care at all who Annie would marry, she just … really felt bad for Horace if it was him.

Annie saw her indifference and gritted her teeth. She said, “Stella, just wait and see! Firstly, you married Clarence using unscrupulous measures, and now you’re trying to seduce Horace. You will be punished by God for sure!”

Stella smiled indifferently, “Then will you be punished by God? Annie, you can deny what you’ve done, but I also hope you won’t forget the phrase ‘punished by God’ that you just said.”

Annie got mad after hearing her words, and before she could retort, Stella had already left.

In the corridor, Phoebe swept a glance at Stella’s belly when she passed by her.

Since she was pregnant, Stella had been always wearing loose clothing, and since the baby was only three months old plus she was thin, no one could actually notice that she was pregnant.

But this made people suspect her more.

Phoebe walked over to Annie and asked, “Annie, who were you talking to just now?”

Annie said with hatred, “A shameless woman!”

“Well, there’s no need to get angry over someone you don’t care about. Are you still going to look for Horace?”

Only then Annie realized that she had come here to meet with Horace.

Recently, Horace had been avoiding her, as she couldn’t find him.

Today, thanks to Phoebe telling her that Horace was here to talk to his business partner, she rushed over.

Unexpectedly, she ran into Stella, the shameless woman!
