Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 71

After taking Stella into the CEO’s office, Nathan said, “Ms. Radomil, Mr. Conrad is in a meeting now. Please wait a moment.”

Stella nodded gently, “Thank you, Nathan.”

Then Nathan poured her a glass of warm water and gave her a kindly reminder, “Ms. Radomil, Mr. Conrad is in a meeting for the board of directors, so his father attended it as well. Probably they would have some conflicts. If he lost his temper on you later, please don’t take it to heart...”

“It’s alright. Even if he would find a rope and strangle me, I wouldn’t take it seriously.”

Nathan was speechless.

Subconsciously, he felt his neck tickled. Immediately, he walked out of the office.

The meeting that Clarence was in was far longer than Stella had imagined. In the previous evening during Joanna’s birthday banquet, Dempsey announced the marriage between Horace and Annie.

After Conrad Group and Jason Group had this official marriage for convenience, Dempsey couldn’t wait to change the structure within Conrad Group, taking the power away from Clarence’s hands gradually.

Stella had been waiting in Clarence’s office from the morning until it was getting dark. She felt so starved while waiting. She wanted to go downstairs and grab something to eat, but she recalled the rule that was set particularly for the designer from SG. If she hadn’t called Nathan directly, she would still be stopped downstairs.

Fortunately, Nathan kept an eye on her. He didn’t only deliver lunch to her but also provided her with the high-tea.

Stella even wondered if she came here for negotiating with Clarence.

After finishing the last piece of the small cake, she cleaned up the junk from the desk. Then she sat back on the sofa.

She felt not bad - at least she would feel more confident with a full tummy instead of being starved.

However, as soon as she was full, she felt sleepy.

When Clarence went back to his office, he saw her lying prone on the sofa, sleeping soundly. The food packages were tossed in the garbage bin next to the sofa. He felt amused and angry.

Sitting opposite her, he loosened his necktie. His gaze fell on the belly that was covered under her loosened dress, his eyes deepened.

Stella hadn’t fallen asleep last night at all. After the high-tea, she couldn’t help sleeping as if she was sleeping in her own apartment. Dizzily, she turned around and felt that all most her upper body was suspended in midair. She suddenly opened her eyes, only to find a man standing in front o her. After being in a daze for a few minutes, she finally recalled where she was now.

Clarence sat back on the sofa. He asked in an indifferent tone, “Had enough sleep?”

Stella immediately rubbed her temples, adjusted her posture, and sat upright, “Hello, Mr. Conrad.”

“It hasn’t been three days yet. Are you sure you’ve made up your mind?”

Stella pressed her lips, “Things have come to this end. No matter how long I would consider it, it would end up in this way. Mr. Conrad, you won’t give me another option either.”

As she spoke, she pressed the Kraft paper bag in front of Clarence, “I won’t take the things that don’t belong to me. Besides, even if I’ve signed on it, you still have a lot of ways to let this contract be void, Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence didn’t retort. He said with a sneer, “You’re always smart when you are supposed to be. I never disappoint.”

Although he had given half of the property in his name to Stella according to this agreement, it was actually just like the relationship between a primary and a second bank card. She has the right to access and use, but she wouldn’t have the right to make a final decision.

Without his permission, she wouldn’t be able to touch anything.

Stella ignored the sarcasm in his words. She continued, “I have two conditions. Mr. Conrad, if you could agree, I’ll also agree to your requirements.”

“Go ahead.”

“First, write off the debt I owe you. From now on, I don’t owe you anything.”

Clarence stared at her with his black eyes. After a few seconds, he answered in a cold tone, “Okay.”

Clenching her hands tightly, Stella continued, “Secondly... Mr. Conrad, I hope you could help me resolve my brother’s matter. I know you must have some ways.”

Clarence withdrew his gaze on her. With an expressionless face, he asked, “Why do you think I’m willing to offend others for you?”

“Mr. Conrad, you’ll do it not for me but yourself.”

“Ehn?”

“Mr. Conrad, you should know it quite clear that if I go to your parents directly now, they would give me everything I ask for.”

Clarence’s eyes focused on her, in which the fury surged.

Stella felt that the temperature in the office abruptly dropped. She couldn’t help but shiver.

However, she didn’t withdraw her words. In this negotiation, if she showed her weakness, she would fail miserably, and in that case, she couldn’t save anything.

After a long while, Clarence laughed out, “Stella Radomil, good job.”

Although he was laughing, his eyes full of arctic ice cold.

Stella said calmly, “Those are the only two conditions I have. I believe it’s extremely simple for you, Mr. Conrad.”

“I promise you.”

Stella felt that the rock pressed in her heart finally dropped. She lowered her eyes slowly, “Mr. Conrad, when do you want...”

Clarence answered in a flat tone, “Tomorrow.”

Stella probably hadn’t expected that it would happen so fast. She was choked up and couldn’t utter a word for a moment.

Clarence stared at her coldly, “Why? Do you want to break your promise?”

“Nope.” Stella shook her head slightly, “Mr. Conrad, thanks for giving me a night to get prepared.”

“I’m quite busy.” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Stella stood up, “Okay. Please allow me to take off. I won’t be holding you up so long, Mr. Conrad.”

After she took a few steps forward, she heard Clarence’s voice from her back, “What else do you like to speak?”

She paused her pace and smiled faintly, “I do have a lot of words to speak, but Mr. Conrad, you might not be willing to listen to me.”

Clarence knocked on the sofa with his slender fingers. He said steadily, “I can give you such a chance now.”

“Mr. Conrad, since you want to listen to me, I’ll speak directly.” Stella continued, “I do want to speak a lot of words to you, but they only mean one thing, which is the best regards that I wish for you. In short, may you be the last of your family line!”

Clarence couldn’t utter a beep.

After finishing her words, Stella left the office without looking back.

The biggest reason was that she was afraid the wretched man would toss her downstairs in anger.

After walking out of the Conrad Group, Stella finally felt that she had vented her anger.

When she was about to hail a cab, her way was blocked.

Stella looked up at the man and her eye pupils shrank. She took a few steps back.

With a bandaged head, Jeffrey smiled weirdly, looking quite hilarious and creepy. He said, “My good daughter, I know I can catch you when waiting here.”

“You...”

When Stella was about to speak, she felt someone covered her nose and mouth from her back. Before she could call for help, she was dragged into the van parked next to them.

Obviously, Jeffrey was well-prepared this time.

In the van, Stella’s hands were tied up together. She looked at Jeffrey coldly, “What do you want?”

Jeffrey answered, “Stella, don’t worry. I’m your father. How can I hurt you? Since you’ve divorced, it’s my duty to find you another husband.”

Stella felt a chill rising along her spines. She asked in disbelief, “Do you know what on earth you are doing now?”

“Don’t overreact. If it weren’t me in the past, would you be able to marry into the Conrad family? I’m doing it for your own good.”
