Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 144

Nathan could only smile bitterly in his heart. ‘Mr. Conrad, can you please take care of your matter first? Your matter is much more serious than hers!’ Nathan thought to himself.

He had oppressed the news about Stella earlier.

Clarence continued, “If I don’t take care of her, she may die miserably.”

“MR. Conrad…”

“From the charity night party last now, to the disclosure today, I guess the reason why that person did those things was to ruin Stella’s reputation. If Stella leaves SG, who will get benefits from it?”

Nathan paused. He understood what Clarence meant, “Mr. Conrad, did you mean that it was done by an employee of SG Jewelry Magazine?”

Clarence, who was leaning against a chair, looked indifferently, “She has a sharp tone and she must have offended many people. Start the investigation from the most susceptible one.”

“Roger.” Nathan came back after taking several steps, “Then… What about the other matter?”

“Even if you’re so anxious, you can’t solve it for the time being. When it progresses to some extent and achieves the results she wants, naturally she will deal with it.”

Nathan was startled when he heard the words, “Mr. Conrad, you know who’s the one behind this?”

Clarence looked up. Yet Nathan couldn’t read through his expression.

He replied immediately, “I will go and investigate into the matter related to Mrs. Conrad.”

After Nathan’s departure, the spacious office was overwhelmed by dead silence.

Clarence stood up and stopped in front of the French window. With two hands in his pockets, he looked at the bustling streets, seeming to be lost in his thoughts.

After a short while, his phone that was placed on the table rang.

Clarence turned around and took a glance at the screen. It was a call from Stella.

But he stood on the spot and didn’t move.

When the ringing sound came to an end, the screen darkened again.

Clarence shifted his gaze. Several minutes later, he turned around and picked up his phone and then called Stella.

Several seconds later, Stella’s soft voice sounded from the other end of the phone, “Mr. Conrad, are you busy now?”

Clarence snorted, “Yep.”

It seemed like he was mean to utter other words.

“Then please go on with your own business. I will not bother you.”

When Stella was going to say something else, she heard his impatient voice from the other end of the phone, “Spill the beans.”

She said in a low voice, “Ms. Anderson called me just now, saying that she was worried about you?”

“Is it necessary to worry about me? Does she think that I will take it too hard, or something else?”

Stella was originally concerned about him well-intentionally, but she hadn’t expected to get such a bad attitude from him. She was a bit annoyed, “Mr. Conrad, do you have to be so sharp-toned?”

Clarence looked up and happened to see his reflection on the French window. He seemed to remember something.

After a short while of silence, he said, “I’m sorry. Please ask it again.”

Stella was rendered speechless.

Clarence continued in a calm voice, “I’m doing well and you don’t need to worry about me.”

“Then… If you’re really fine, I suggest you make a call to Ms. Anderson.”

“I see.”

Stella said, “Let’s stop here. I will not bother you, Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence called her name out of the blue, “Stella.”

Stella felt her heart skip one beat when she heard it, “What’s wrong.”

“I will give you a chance, for the last time.” Clarence said slowly, “Do you want to remarry me?”

Stella replied after a long while of silence, “Mr. Conrad, why do you suddenly mention this?”

“You just need to answer my question.”
