Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 171

As she spoke, Annie raised her hand. When she was about to slap Stella, her wrist was grabbed by the latter. Before she came back to her senses, she received a slap across her face violently.

Annie widened her eyes in disbelief. She yelled in a harsh voice, “You hit me! How dare you hit me! Stella Radomil, you...”

Stella looked at her expressionless, “Or what? Should I ask you to sit down and have a cup of tea?”

Annie roared towards her men outside, “What are you waiting for? Are you blind?”

Upon hearing her roar, several men entered the studio immediately.

Annie pushed away Stella forcibly. With a fierce look, she yelled, “Smash it! Smash everything! Don’t leave her anything!”

Stella, however, was extremely calm. She cast careless glances at those men who were ready to take the action, “I don’t know if you are working for the Conrad family or the Perez family. As long as you have the balls to smash my studio, I wouldn’t let go of you so easily. If anyone needs to be held responsible at that time, probably Annie Conrad wouldn’t be punished, but none of you could escape.”

Those men exchanged glances with each other. For a moment, they stood motionlessly and hesitated. They dared not to start any movement.

They were all working for the Conrad family, brought here by Annie. They listened to Joanna’s orders, but they also knew that Stella was Clarence’s ex-wife. Although the Conrad family didn’t like her, Annie wasn’t that important to the Conrad family, either.

In case they had taken the action and Stella went to the Conrad family to make a fuss, the Conrad family might not do anything to Annie, but instead, they would be punished for it.

Seeing that they were hesitant, Annie shouted herself hoarsely, “Do you really think she could do anything to you? She’s a shameless bitch. Nobody in the Conrad family cares about her. Nobody cares if she’s dead or alive. If you don’t listen to me now, I’ll tell Aunt Joanna right now. You all will suffer!”

Right then, a figure entered the studio.

Emmett took a glance at them and walked to Stella. He asked, “Stella, what’s going on?”

Stella answered indifferently, “Nothing. Just a lunatic is making a scene here with her men.”

Emmett looked over at Annie, frowning secretly. He realized that he must have seen the woman somewhere before.

After a moment, he asked, “Are you Miss Conrad?”

Annie glanced at him, looking quite ironic and disdainful, “What are you? Who do you think you are to speak to me?”

Then she turned to Stella and said disdainfully, “You never lack man, do you? Even calling you shameless is a compliment to you.”

Emmett didn’t take it seriously, but he looked colder, “My name is Emmett Carter, from Star Ferry Technology. Miss Conrad, it’s alright if you disdain me. Please send my message to your father - I don’t think Star Ferry Technology is qualified enough to cooperate with him. Please ask him to find others to work on those projects he discussed with me before.”

Annie looked quite irritated, “What is Star Ferry Technology? Now you know it’s not qualified, you’d better fuck off. Don’t waste my time here.”

Stella said, “Annie Conrad, you only have thirty seconds to get out from here.”

“Think you can threaten me, huh? Your backer is that bastard. He’s not in City N now. What can you do to me?”

Stella smiled faintly, “If not mistaken, I guess Justin has warned you to leave me in peace.”

Upon hearing that, Annie gritted her teeth tightly, her eyes full of hatred.

She finally managed to find the chance that Clarence was out of City N, but someone from the damned Star Ferry Technology suddenly showed up and ruined her plan. Now, Stella even threatened her with Justin.

If Justin knew that she came to make trouble to Stella in secret, he would scold her again. At that time, Aunt Joanna would take his side as well.

However, Annie wasn’t reluctant to just leave in this way.

Right then, Sherry came out of the office, “You can stay if you don’t want to leave. Anyway, I’ve called the police. You can have some tea with them in the police station.”

Annie sneered, “I won’t let go of you so easily. Just wait and see!”

When Annie left with her men, the studio returned to peace.

Stella looked over at Emmett, “Sorry for bothering with such a farce.”

Emmett shook his head, “I’ve heard that Miss Conrad is arrogant and unreasonable for a long time. Now I met her today, the rumor turns out to be real.”

Sherry said, “She’s just a madwoman, making trouble to everyone.”

After a pause, she added, “Oh, you said you’re cooperating with her father just now. Are you working with the Conrad family? If you called off your cooperation, would it be a loss for you?”

Emmett smiled, “No, not with the Conrad family. I won’t suffer any loss to stop the cooperation with them. They should be worried about it.”

Actually, anyone who knew the Conrad family would know that although Annie’s surname was Conrad, her parents were not any member of the Conrad family.

Annie’s father married into and live with the Perez family and inherited the family fortune. However, because he was good at doing business, the family suffered a lot of losses in the past few years. If it weren’t that the Conrad family was their backer, the Perez family would have disappeared long ago. In recently, Clarence seemed to suppress the Perez family as well.

Annie’s father had spent a lot of effort and contacted a lot of people in his network to obtain a chance to cooperate with Star Ferry Technology.

Emmett couldn’t refuse for the sake of their mutual contact, so he had to agree.

Fortunately, after Annie made the scene, he got the chance to refuse them.

Sherry exhaled, “That’s good, then.”

As she spoke, she glanced at Stella secretly. Then she rapidly rolled her eyes, “Well... Stella, why don’t you show Emmett around our studio? I’ll go buy some coffee.”

Stella understood immediately what she was planning to do. She pulled Sherry to stop and faintly smiled, “Sherry, no bother. Just order some takeouts.”

“Well...”

Emmett also echoed, “I just happened to pass by, so I came to check on you girls. I’ll leave pretty soon.”

Upon hearing it, Sherry was anxious, “Why are you leaving so soon? Thanks for your help today. We should treat you for dinner.”

Stella thought for a moment and echoed, “If you are not quite busy, why don’t we have dinner together?”

No matter what, if Emmett hadn’t shown up today, according to Annie’s character, she would have made a farce. In that case, she would damage her studio. Even if the police arrived later, the damage couldn’t be saved.

Besides, he canceled the cooperation, which would definitely cause a certain loss for him unlike what he said.

Since Stella also asked, Sherry made hay while the sun shined, “Yes. Yes. You should eat no matter how busy you are. You’ve come here already and helped us so much. We should thank you no matter what.”

Upon hearing their words, Emmett didn’t refuse anymore. He slightly nodded in agreement, “All right.”
