Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 125

Right after George finished speaking, he was about to leave, but the door of the VIP lounge was opened.

Clarence stood at the door. He said expressionlessly, “Since such an incident happened, as the organizer, Jason Group should take its responsibility. Mr. Jason, are you sure you won’t take care of it and leave this way?”

Seeing him, George looked more annoyed, “Mr. Conrad, since you said so, are you going to take care of it?”

“Mr. Jason, you misunderstood. I just passed here by.”

Among all people at the scene, only Stanford knew that he wasn’t just passing here by.

Stanford coughed. He walked up and said, “Mr. Jason, I can guarantee that before the jewelry was sent here there were no problems at all. Our employees were watching them on the way and didn’t leave them. Mr. Jason, could you please request the hotel to give us the surveillance?”

George said impatiently, “Do you want me to leave so many of my guests in the hall just for such a woman with a bad reputation?”

This time, before Stanford spoke, Clarence said expressionlessly, “Mr. Jason, you must not know yet - your son, Horace Jason, almost ruined his engagement to the Conrad family because of this woman with a bad reputation.”

George’s expression was stiffened. He wasn’t in the mood to beat around the bush with Clarence, “What did you say?”

In the corner, Modesty’s faint smile was also stiffened. She looked up in disbelief.

How come Stella knew the son from the Jason family?

Right then, there were a few knocks on the door.

George tidied himself up and inhaled deeply, “Enter.”

Stella and Phoebe showed up one after another.

Although Phoebe and Rebecca were friends, the Jason and the Steward families did not cooperate in business. Besides, Phoebe attended the banquet with Clarence, which ruined all the Jason and Conrad families’ plans.

Seeing that she followed Clarence in as if she wanted to make trouble on purpose, George wasn’t quite polite to her. He asked rudely, “What are you doing here?”

Phoebe sensed the unhappiness in his tone and didn’t care. She said in a gentle voice, “Uncle Jason, please allow me to introduce her. This is Ms. Radomil, the designer from SG Jewelry Magazine.”

Due to the rumors outside, George didn’t have a good impression of Stella. Plus, Clarence said something just now, which reminded him that Annie made a fuss before.

He thought that Annie had made trouble out of nothing and beat the air that time. Much to his surprise, Horace did admit the existence of that woman. Just now, Clarence confirmed and let him know who she was.

When George looked over at Stella, his eyes were filled with disgust.

Stella said politely, “Good evening, Mr. Jason. I’m here for the auction...”

“Not necessarily. I’ve made up my mind on this matter. No matter what explanation you would have it’s your own business. It has nothing to do with me and this charity banquet.”

After finishing his words, he didn’t pause any longer, striding away.

Stella exhaled in silence. When she looked up, she found a pair of black deep eyes were gazing at her coldly.

She was choked up.

Why was he here as well?

She indeed promised that she wouldn’t come here, but such an incident happened unexpectedly.

Seeing that, Phoebe walked up and took Clarence’s arm. With a smile, she said, “By the way, Ms. Radomil. I forgot to make the introduction. This is my fiance, the CEO of Conrad Group.”

As she spoke, she looked over at Clarence, “Clarence, this is the designer of SG Jewelry Magazine. I like her designs very much.”

Clarence didn’t change his expression. He uttered a word from his thin lips coldly, “?”

Phoebe continued and said to Stella, “Ms. Radomil, please don’t worry. We’ll help you look into the matter for sure and prove your innocence.”

Stella twitched her mouth corners. Suddenly she couldn’t utter a word at all.

The word “fiance” was like a heavy stone that was smashed into her heart, making her short of breath for a moment.

Before Stella answered, Clarence said coldly, “I’m not interested to deal with such a matter.”

After that, he withdrew his arm from Phoebe’s grip and walked away directly.

Phoebe looked at his receding figure and smiled, “Please don’t mind him, Ms. Radomil. He’s always like this.”

Stanford, who had witnessed all the dramatic scenes, rushed over and interrupted their conversation, “Excuse me, Miss Steward. I’m sorry for dragging you into the mere this time. We’ll surely give you a satisfying explanation.”

“It’s alright. I believe in Ms. Radomil and SG Jewelry Magazine.”

“Thank you for your trust, Miss Steward. We’ll get it done as soon as possible.”

Phoebe nodded with a smile. Before leaving, she cast a glance at Modesty, who kept silent all the time, “Ms. Parker, thank you, as well.”

Modesty was cued unexpectedly. For a moment, she panicked. After a few seconds, she answered, “Miss Steward, you are welcome. That’s what I’m supposed to do.”

After Phoebe was gone, Stanford said, “Stella, now Jason Group isn’t willing to let us make the explanation in public. But we still have one way - as long as your end product could be found before the auction was over, it still could make difference.”

Stella came back to her senses, “Thank you, Mr. Leif. I’m sorry for the trouble.”

“I’m also responsible for this incident. I should have come here to deliver the jewelry in person. Otherwise, this shouldn’t have happened. Time is up. Let’s go to the monitoring room...”

“I don’t think it’s necessary,” Stella said calmly, “I’ve asked the staff when I was on the way here. There were only three items left for the auction tonight. I don’t think the time will be enough for us to reach the monitoring room.”

Stanford frowned slightly. That was true.

Although the auction was paused just now, they had spent a lot of time in the VIP lounge. Since Mr. Jason left just now, the auction had continued.

They couldn’t have enough time at all.

Stella added, “Just let it be.”

She didn’t want to pull SG Jewelry Magazine into trouble because of herself. The only way for her to do now was to leave SG Jewelry Magazine so that they could push all responsibilities on her.

Anyway, she was too exhausted. She didn’t have any strength to fight back.

“Ms. Radomil, why don’t you find Cla...”

Stella faintly smiled, “Mr. Leif, I’m taking off now.”

Out of the lounge, Stella exhaled. When she was about to leave, Horace walked to her.

“Stella, follow me, please.”

Horace pulled her hand and strode over to the banquet hall.

Stella said, “Horace...”

When they arrived at the banquet hall, the auction happened to end.

Horace said, “Stella, wait for me here.”

After that, he walked onto the stage. He took the microphone from the host and said, “I’m sorry. I’m afraid I need to you take up a little bit of your time.”

The attendees, who were about to leave the hall, stopped and looked back at him.

Horace continued, “Just now, the auction had to be paused because of our Jason Group’s mistake. It also harmed the designer of SG Jewelry Magazine. I want to clarify this incident particularly.”
