Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 129

Stella walked back to her room and opened the suitcase, putting her belongings back.

Done that, she lay down on the bed helplessly.

She hadn’t done anything today, but she was extremely exhausted.

When she was looking out of the window in a daze, her phone rang.

Stella sat up and looked around in her room. Then she saw her phone on the desk.

It was a call from Phoebe.

“Hello, Ms. Radomil. I want to apologize to you on Annie’s behalf. She was spoiled since her childhood. Please don’t take it to your heart.”

Stella said calmly, “It’s alright.”

After a pause, Phoebe said, “Although it sounds a bit abrupt, I’m quite curious, wondering if what Annie said was real. Please don’t misunderstand. I didn’t mean anything else. I just want to know your relationship with Clarence.”

“I’m his ex-wife.”

“It turns out to be like this... I’m sorry. I didn’t know about your relationship before. Please excuse my offense.”

“Miss Steward, please don’t mention it. I’ve already divorced him. I didn’t expect that you are his fiancee either. I should apologize for that.”

Phoebe smiled, “Yeah. I’ve been liking him for a long time. We were supposed to get married, but unfortunately...”

She didn’t finish her words. Instead, she said, “Before I met you in person, I heard a lot of comments about you from Annie, so I had misunderstood you a lot. But now, it’s quite different. I’m so glad to have a friend like you. I believe that you are absolutely not the kind of person that Annie has thought.”

Stella said, “In fact, Annie Conrad wasn’t wrong. I’m not a good person anyway. I forced Clarence Conrad to marry me.”

Phoebe said, “I still prefer to believe what I’ve seen personally.”

Stella slightly smiled and said, “Thank you, Miss Steward.”

“I’ve said that I’ll treat you for dinner after the end product is done. Now I believe I have more reason to invite you as an apology. When will you be free, Ms. Radomil?”

...

After hanging up the phone, Stella lay on the bed, feeling more bored.

If she had known that Phoebe was Clarence’s fiancee earlier, she’d rather refuse to make such money instead of taking this order.

She felt so annoyed.

Stella pressed her head into the pillow. How she wished to smash the wretched man to death! If it weren’t because of him, she wouldn’t have stuck in such a dilemma.

If she couldn’t handle it well, she would be called the mistress between Phoebe and Clarence.

She couldn’t help cursing the wretched man.

She wished him to go to hell.

The more she thought about it, the angrier Stella was. She got up and opened the draft book. After a few quick brushes on one page, she stood up and walked out of her bedroom with sticky tape. She taped the paper on Clarence’s bedroom door.

After venting her anger slightly in that way, she finally calmed herself down.

However, in the latter half of the night, she still couldn’t fall asleep.

Stanford said, “About the incident that happened last night at the charity banquet, we’re looking into it. However, the impact of this incident was too big and you both are involved. I want to know your opinions.”

Modesty said firstly, “I didn’t take good care of my client’s design. I must take the major responsibility.”

Stanford didn’t answer her. He looked over at Stella, “What about you, Ms. Radomil?”

“Well, since the other party could take away Modesty’s necklace designed for Miss Steward, know which one of the three auction items from SG Jewelry Magazine was mine, and exchange it, I believe it was done by an insider.”

Stanford nodded in agreement, “I agreed. But there are too many employees in our company. It’s quite difficult to investigate. I guess it will take a long time.”

Stella said, “Thanks, Mr. Leif, but I don’t want to continue looking into this matter.”

“Why not?”

Upon hearing it, not only Stanford felt surprised, but also Modesty looked over at her.

With a smile, Stella said, “The person who set me up aimed to see my embarrassment on the charity banquet. However, she never expected that Horace Jason would help me declare the matter. She doesn’t know the relationship between Horace and me, nor does she know if she has exposed any other flaws besides the surveillance. She must be in a panic now. If I keep on looking into the matter, she probably would use different means to make her innocent. If I don’t look into it, she couldn’t do anything. However, she would be in a panic every day and lead an uneasy life.”

As she spoke, she looked over at Modesty who lowered her head. With a brighter smile, she asked, “What do you think, Ms. Parker?”

Modesty heard Stella calling her, and her heart skipped a beat. She tried her best to maintain calm, “I... How do I know? But, if I were you, I would definitely keep on looking into it.”

Stella said, “Someone told me yesterday that the world doesn’t only contain black and white. I also want to take the chance to see besides black and white, what else colors this world has.”

Upon hearing her words, Modesty clenched her hands tightly.

She was almost certain that Stella had known what she had done. The purpose why Stella said those words was to warn her that she had caught on her. Hence, Modesty couldn’t do anything against Stella at all.
