Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 206

Sherry followed when Stella went to get water and she asked in a low voice, “Stella, who is the man with Clarence?”

Stella was making tea while answered, “His partner.”

Sherry was confused, “Why did he take his partner here?”

“….”

Stella didn’t feel weird until she heard Sherry’s question.

Right, William was Clarence’s partner and should have nothing to do with her.

But somehow, when William said that he wanted to visit her studio yesterday, she was not surprised and agreed without hesitation. She felt it was natural to do so and didn’t noticed anything wrong.

Stella tried to defend herself. She put the caddy’s cover back slowly, “Well … but I had met Mr. William once and we had a nice talk, so ….”

Sherry listened to her defense and added timely, “So you get acquainted with him because of Clarence.”

Stella, “….”

She didn’t know what to say.

Sherry laughed, “Fine, I’m just kidding. Come on, they are waiting for you.”

Stella felt uneasy, “Sherry, please come with me ….”

“No, no, no. I intend on sticking around for a while. Whenever I see the wretched … Mr. Conrad, I feel I am a different person with a different name. I would be out of my mind.”

As soon as she finished, she made an excuse and left.

Stella stared at her back, with her head bowed spiritlessly.

When she served the tea, William asked, “Are we interrupting Ms. Radomil’s work?”

Stella shook her head, “No. There is no clients today and I can take this chance to have a rest. Mr. William, please have a seat, I ….”

Before she could finish, she was held by the wrist and fell on the sofa in a second.

Clarence said flatly, “Sit here if you need a rest. Don’t walk around.”

It was all because of you who came with a thick skin!

It was better for her to stay as she had another guest here. Stella was in silence for a few seconds and then moved towards the sofa’s arm to keep distance with the wretched man.

However, Clarence looked at her with a dissatisfied expression and placed his arm behind her to declare his ownership.

Seated opposite them, William watched them being against each other secretly and smiled in silence.

Stella ignored Clarence and chatted with William, “Mr. William has been back in City N for a while. Do you get used to the life here?”

“It is my first time back here after few years. I am not completely accustomed to living here, but everything’s getting better.”

They chatted for a while and then Stella felt an itch on her back and her hair was pulled causing pain.

She clenched her teeth and turned around abruptly.

Clarence probably didn’t expect her to react this way and his hand remained in the air with several strands of broken hair around his fingers.

Stella saw the broken hair and instantly felt her scalp hurt. She took a deep breath, “Mr. Conrad has been free recently?”

Clarence withdrew his hand, restored his sitting, and replied emotionlessly, “No.”

“Then Mr. Conrad ….”

“I have been talking about our partnership with Mr. William, so I am wherever he is.”

Stella, “….”

Pah, shameless!

On the street, the ejected middle-aged woman tried many times to come back to the studio to resume her fight, but she was stopped halfway every time. And she found that many men in black suit were guarding the studio’s gate.

She spit into the grass and left rubbing her waist.

Before long, a white car stopped in front her.

Soon, a beautiful young woman got off the car.

The middle-aged woman walked forward immediately eyes lit up, “I did whatever you said. Give me the money now.”

Phoebe Steward turned to reach an envelop from a man, “This is the money I promised.” And then she took out another envelop, “You did a good job, and I want you to continue to make a scene. The bigger the better.”

“It’s easy. Today I discovered those girls were weak. They didn’t dare to complain even when they were bullied. I can deal with them in whatever way I like ….”

She reached out to get the money, but Phoebe avoided her hand and smiled, “Take it easy. I’ll give it to you when you complete the task.”

“What do you want me to do? Just say it.”

Phoebe handed the envelop to her man and then took out a picture from her bag, “Remember this face.”

“A pretty face. Ok, got it. He looks like a student ….”

“You don’t have to know this.” Phoebe said indifferently, “I want to have him ruined. You know what to do, right?”

The middle-aged woman curled her lips, “It’s no big deal, but you have to pay me more.”

Phoebe crossed her arms over her chest, “As long as you make it, you’ll get as much as you want.”

“I want ….” The woman showed a number with her fingers, “This number.”

“No problem.”

Seeing Phoebe agreed without any hesitation, the woman regretted immediately and showed a new number, “No, no, no. I want this much!”

“Fine.”

After they made an agreement on the price, the woman asked, “What about today’s matter? Shall I continue to make a scene?”

Phoebe glanced at the black Rolls-Royce parked not far away and said coldly, “Continue as long as you can. Never let her get out of trouble even a single day.”

The woman grinned, “I’m good at it. Whoever offended me Bernice Young can never have a sound sleep!”

Phoebe looked away from the Rolls-Royce and turned around to get into her car.

When Phoebe’s car drove away, Bernice cautiously noted her car’s plate number.

In front of the studio’s gate, William said, “Ms. Radomil, sorry for the trouble today. I should have invited you to dinner, but I have an emergence to cope with.”

Stella responded, “It’s fine Mr. William.”

Then she turned to Clarence who was reluctant to leave. She gave a slight smile and spoke in a gentle voice, “Mr. Conrad said that you’ll be wherever Mr. William is, right?”

Clarence gazed at her emotionlessly and didn’t respond.

Even if he didn’t say it, Stella knew what he was thinking.

He must be complaining that she was a heartless woman.

After a few seconds, Clarence said, “I’ll see you tonight.”

He moved his legs and left the studio as soon as he finished before Stella could realize what he meant.

William smiled at Stella, “Ms. Radomil, I should go. See you.”

Stella nodded slightly, “Bye.”

When the two men disappeared, Sherry showed up suddenly, “Hey, hey, hey, did you hear that he is going to see again tonight. Who do you think would be the winner between him and the fierce woman?”

“….”
