Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 634

Stella said, “I’m on the way to the company. Let’s talk about this when I arrive.”

“Okay.”

After ending the call, Stella put her phone aside and drove to the company.

She wouldn’t care about it if it was just an ordinary customer. However, apparently, Freya came to her with full preparation.

Maybe her target was not Modesty, but it must be Stella.

For people like Freya, they would feel restless if they couldn’t figure out her background and intentions.

Half an hour later, Stella arrived at the Steward Group.

When Stella got out of the car, she found Samuel was waiting for her at the entrance of the company.

Samuel walked over and said, “Ms. Radomil, Mr. Francis Colton is having a meeting. I will bring you to the office first.”

Stella nodded her head, “Okay.”

After walking into the lift, Stella asked, “Have anything happened to our company recently?”

“The projects, which were taken charge by Armand before, have some problems, more or less. But Mr. Colton has dealt with it and has kicked those people out of the company. It’s just that…”

Noticing that he wanted to say something, Stella asked, “What’s wrong?”

Samuel continued, “Not a big deal. It’s just that when Mr. Colton was dealing with those people, some people talked about it privately, saying that Mr. Colton was Mr. Conrad’s subordinate and he wasn’t qualified to take care of the Steward Group’s matters. They even said that Mr. Conrad would take control of the Steward Group one day. But it was because those people left our company with dissatisfaction that they deliberately slandered Mr. Colton. It won’t have a huge impact.”

Stella spoke after a long while, “Francis will still be responsible for the Steward Group in the next few months. If the rumours are not that serious, you can ignore them.”

Samuel asked after a pause, “Ms. Radomil, aren’t you going back to the company?”

Stella gently shook her head, “I have to deal with my own business. Before, I chose to come to Steward Group, oh, even though I didn’t help a lot, because the company almost went bankrupt. But now the company doesn’t need me.”

“Ms. Radomil, please don’t say so. If not for your help, Steward Group would have been ruined by Armand and Logan and we wouldn’t have had the opportunity to come back. We would have to live with the stigma for the rest of our lives.”

Samuel continued, “I don’t know what’s in other employees’ minds, but I and those managers sincerely appreciate your help.”

“It was you who gave the company a future.”

Stella curled her lips into a light smile. She suddenly thought all the tiredness and grievance she had suffered over the past several months had become worthy.

She hadn’t been ambitious since childhood.

All she hoped was that she and Channing could get rid of Jeffrey and lead a peaceful life.

Therefore, even though many things happened thereafter, for most of the time, she didn’t want to confront them directly.

Even though she had made some decisions, she was still afraid that they would be wrong.

But getting such a comment from Samuel proved that her choices might not be the wisest ones, but they must not be the worst ones too.

When Stella entered the office, she found the layout and decoration of the office remained unchanged.

Stella turned around and asked, “Isn’t this Francis’ office?”

Samuel replied, “Mr. Colton takes Armand’s office as his.”

Samuel then added, “Ms. Radomil, please wait a minute, I will show you the contracts we signed in the past month.”

Stella stopped him, “Don’t bother.”

Anyway, she didn’t understand it. Now that Francis had dealt with the contracts, there wouldn’t be any problems.

Stella asked, “Has Donald been to the company recently?”

“Nope. He hasn’t been here ever since you came to Riverside. Luckily, Mr. Colton was here, so everything in the company is progressing normally.”

“I see. When will the meeting end?”

Samuel took a glance at the clock and replied, “I guess it will last for one more hour.”

“Then I will wait for him here. Go ahead with your own business.”

Samuel nodded his head and handed a document to Stella, “This is Freya’s information and it’s quite detailed. Ms. Radomil, please call me if you have any problems.”

Stella replied, “Okay.”

After Samuel’s leaving, Stella sat down on the sofa and opened the document in front of her.

Freya, originally named Gloria Elmo, went to Paris for study ten years ago and then settled in France.

Her husband was a businessman and they got to know each other at a party.

They had been together for three years and had been maintaining a good relationship. They were going to get married in October of this year.

Except for the above-mentioned information, Stella turned the pages and found nothing special.

There were also several pictures about the jewellery that Modesty designed for her, and Freya had posted the photos on social platforms.

Everything seemed to be normal. It seemed like Freya came to Stella for the design of her wedding rings.

Stella closed the document and rubbed her glabella.

Was she so sensitive again that she thought too much of it?

But the reality was that what she doubted before all turned into reality.

Nonetheless, this time, she didn’t have any clues.

Half an hour later, Francis strode into the office, “Ms. Radomil, sorry for letting you wait for a long time.”

Stella stood up and said with a smile, “Francis, long time no see.”

Francis coughed, “Yeah. But should I correct myself? Maybe I should call you Mrs. Conrad?”

Stella was lost for words.

She then replied, “Just call me Stella.”

Francis smiled awkwardly and decided not to bring up this unpleasant past again. He then said, “Mr. Conrad gave me a call this morning and told me about your plan. Ms. Radomil, please rest assured. I will manage the Steward Group well so that you can take part in the fashion week without any scruples.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. This is what I should do.” Francis sighed emotionally, “When Chairman Lyndon’s past was revealed, everyone was so worried, thinking that the company would decline thereafter. But no one had expected that Steward Group would be thriving like it’s today. Even I myself was impressed by you, Ms. Radomil.”

Stella felt a bit embarrassed when she heard the compliment, “Actually, I didn’t help a lot.”

“Ms. Radomil, you don’t have to be so humble. Several years ago, when you took part in the Young Designers' Contest, I knew that you have a great achievement in the future. As expected, I was right. Ms. Radomil, if you chose to go to Paris for further study at that time, you would have become a well-known jewellery designer long ago.”

Stella smiled lightly, yet she didn’t reply as she didn’t know how to respond to it.

Noticing her reaction, Francis realized that he had said something that he was not supposed to bring about and hurriedly made up for his mistake, “But it’s not late to start your career now. I believe that your works will astonish them in the fashion week several months ago, and I’m waiting for cooperating with you, Ms. Radomil.”

Stella had a small talk with Francis. But during this period, Francis constantly received calls related to work, and Stella decided to leave as she didn’t need to deal with anything in the Steward Group.

The moment she walked out of the company, Samuel’s voice sounded from behind.

Stella turned around and found Samuel was running towards her in a hurry.

Panting, Samuel reported, “Ms. Radomil, I just found that Freya’s parents are people of Riverside.”

Stella was stunned, “What?”

Samuel continued, “Freya’s parents died in a car accident five years ago. Therefore, when investigating her before, we didn’t notice her family. But I just found that her parents are from Riverside and they came to City N twenty years ago.”
