Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 155

Yet Channing kept a straight face and said, “She can’t eat spicy food after recovery.” He exposed their lies at once. Both Stella and Sherry became speechless. Sherry turned around and whispered, “I think your brother must have worked for CIA before, nothing would escape from his eyes.” Stella nodded. “I think so too.”

Channing ignored them and walked straight out when the lift door opened. He was not angry that they had kept the truth from him though, he knew Stella was worried that he would look for Clarence when he knew that, and he indeed could not do anything to him with his current capability. Yet it turned out he was not informed of such a huge matter at all. He did not even have the courage to ask Stella how the child in her womb had become now.

Sherry had been ordering food online when she lived there and there were not many vegetables and fruits at home. After glancing at the fridge, Channing turned around and went out. Sherry only heaved a sigh of relief after the door was closed. She felt she was revived once again. “Chan has an exact same temper as you, how scary.” Stella was baffled as she thought she was gentle.

Sherry could not help but ask after a while, “Could it be he’s going to deal with Clarence with that aggressive look?” Stella replied, “He won’t.” She knew Channing, he was not an impetuous person that acted without thinking of the consequence. Sherry patted her chest. “Good to hear that.”

Not long after that, Channing carried two big bags of fresh fruits and vegetables and returned. He then headed straight into the kitchen. Sherry peeled an orange and handed half of the orange to Stella. She sighed. “It feels so good to have a younger brother. If I have such a handsome and caring brother, I won’t get myself a boyfriend until I die. Hey, do you think Chan’s interested in elder or younger female? I wonder whether I have the…hey!”

Stella shoved the orange into her mouth and let out an aggrieved smile. “Come on, you’ve watched him grow up since he’s little, how could you actually have thoughts on him?” Sherry engulfed the orange and smacked her lips. “It doesn’t hurt to dream though.” Stella was speechless.

Sherry then continued after a while, “Hey, didn’t I sell my house, I don’t want to buy another house now, and I plan to start my own business and open a workshop. Let’s do it together, how does that sound?” Stella was startled. “Me?”

“Yeah, let’s open a workshop. You do the jewelry’s design and I’ll do the photography and advertising part. If we encounter any rich client, we could even give her a set of personalized pictures for free.” Stella thought for a while and said, “Let me think about it.”

“Sure, take your time.” Sherry knew what she was concerned of. After all, it was the SG Jewelry Magazine which provided her platform and chance when she returned to the career.

The afternoon time soon passed by. Channing was making soup and the smell spread to the living room with the wind. Sherry held a package of potato chips and came. She stood at the entrance of the kitchen and smacked her lips. “Chan, if you ever have a girlfriend in the future, please don’t forget me and your sister, and come home to visit us.”

“…”

During mealtime, since Stella could not drink alcohol, and it was also mainly because of Channing forbidding her to do so, Sherry drank hers. Before they finished their meal, Sherry had placed one of her legs on the chair and started to curse Clarence. Stella rubbed her temples and smiled blandly. She said to Channing, “You can go home first, I’ll take care of the rest.” Channing looked at Sherry who was singing with chopsticks and asked, “Could you really handle it?”

“It’s fine, it’s not the first time she goes drunk already,” Stella said. “If you don’t leave now, the hostel is gonna close.” Channing looked down at his wristwatch. There was indeed not much time left. He then said, “I’ll come visit you during weekend, do have a rest.”
