Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 1004

Elaine yawned, leaned back on the couch, slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

When Darnell got back to the office, Elaine was curled up on the couch.

He glanced back and the assistant immediately behind him said, "It was Ariel who brought her here."

Darnell looked back at her and walked toward her.

The assistant silently left and closed the door behind her.

Darnell walked up to Elaine, pulled on his tie with one hand, sat down on the coffee table behind him, and looked at her without saying a word.

Elaine didn't know how long she had slept. Feeling a little cold, she reached out to pull the quilt in her sleep, but didn't feel anything.

Elaine thought the quilt had fallen to the ground, and then she leaned out half of her body, her hands fumbling on the ground.

Just as she was about to fall, Darnell finally got tired of watching and reached out and took her arm.

Elaine lifted her head, looked at him with bleary-eyed, and muttered, "Am I dreaming again?"

Darnell said, "Elaine, how could you fall asleep here like it's your home?"

Elaine sat up slowly, waking up.

She was in his office.

Elaine whispered, "I fell asleep... My Head is spinning..."

Darnell bent his finger and tapped her between the eyes. "Are you awake yet?"

Elaine felt some pain, lifted her hand and rubbed it, "Yes, yes, yes!"

Darnell retracted his hand and said, "Why are you running around when you should be in the hospital?"

Elaine slowly opened her palm, and the exquisite cufflink was visible.

"This," she said, "is yours."

Darnell glanced down and didn't say anything.

When he took her to the hospital that day, she held his hand tightly, and finally she took the cuff link.

"Also, you sent Nicholas to Switzerland," added Elaine. "I know it couldn't be a coincidence that you did this..."

"I did it because I didn't want to owe you."

His voice was so faint that she could not hear any emotion.

Elaine shook her head. "I don't believe it. You Don't owe me anything. But you sent Nicholas to Switzerland, celebrate my birthday with me and save me when I was in danger. I don't believe you don't feel anything for me."

Darnell looked at her calmly and said, "Elaine, I can't respond to your feelings for me, and I don't want to owe you something for that, which is why all this is happening, you understand?"

"Relationships are from both sides. I like you, but you don't like me. It happens. Why do you feel like you owe me?" Elaine asked earnestly, "You feel guilty because you like me but you can't give me what I want, right?"

Darnell looked at her, pursed his thin lips, and for a moment said, "Nonsense."

Elaine's face lit up with a smile. "You can't argue with that. I'm right."

Darnell got up and said, "you need to go back to the hospital."

It's getting dark outside for Elaine. It's time for her to go back.

Or her dad was really gonna be pissed.

She stood up, tugged at Darnell's sleeve. "I know you and my dad aren't on the same \side right now, but I'm sure you'll come to an agreement one day, and with the James, they'll find out you're right one day."

"I'll wait for you."

Darnell moved his hand, but didn't say a word.

Elaine just came to see him, to make her feelings clear, and now she's completely free of all mental baggage, and she's ready to go.

She had only taken two steps when her wrist was caught.

Darnell's voice rang, "How are you going to get back?"

Elaine was stumped by his question.

When she came here, she came with Ariel, so she wasn't afraid of being found out.
