Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 162

Annie’s surname was Conrad. If she married into the Jason family and made trouble, the Conrad family’s dignity and reputation would be damaged.

Obviously, Dempsey wasn’t willing to deal with her trouble in the future.

Annie looked extremely reluctant. She still wanted to retort, but Dempsey stood up while supporting himself with the walking stick. He said, “Enough. Things have come this far. You should take on certain responsibilities. It’s also a lesson in your life. Use your brain when speaking and doing things in the future.”

Instantly, Annie understood that he referred to Stella’s matter.

Stella’s baby died in that car accident. Actually, in the very beginning, Joanna had planned everything.

Firstly, Joanna asked Annie to tell Dempsey that Stella was pregnant and let him take Stella into the Conrads’ Mansion. Then Joanna continued to carry other plans next...

Probably Dempsey knew the reason behind it, so Annie understood why he was warning her.

Stella’s baby was gone and Dempsey’s hope was gone, too. However, there must be someone to take the responsibility for it.

Subconsciously, Annie looked over at Joanna, suddenly shivering all over her body.

She wondered if she had been used by Joanna.

Joanna also looked at her, a faint smile appearing on her face, “Annie, it’s alright to call off the engagement with the Jason family. Let me find you a better husband in the future.”

Since the things had gone this far, Annie could only nod to suppress her anger.

However, she was still unhappy, “Aunt Joanna, Justin, please excuse me. I’m going upstairs.”

Joanna nodded in agreement, “Go ahead.”

After Annie left, Joanna looked over at Justin, “Justin, did you go to see Stella today?”

Justin said, “No matter what, I should.”

“Did she made the engagement between Annie and Horace cancel?”

“That’s what I’ve promised her,” Justin said, “We Conrad family has owed her a lot.”

Joanna sneered, “She should blame herself for marrying Clarence Conrad but nobody else.”

Justin heaved a sigh in silence, “Mom, when will you stop doing those things? Clarence didn’t do anything wrong.”

“His birth was a mistake. The biggest mistake he has made was to become that woman’s son.”

On the second floor, Annie was eavesdropping their conversation. Slowly, she clenched her fists, her face full of hatred.

That bitch again! It was again her fault!

This time Annie decided not to let go of her anymore.

...

In the evening, when Stella and Sherry were heading back home, they found the neighbor next door was busy moving.

The apartment that Stella rented before was way too small, which was only enough for one person to stay. It was quite crowded if the two wanted to stay together.

Hence, when they were looking for the studio, they also rented an apartment that was nearby the studio and moved in.

Sherry said in confusion, “Is there an old lady staying next door? Her other family members are all in the US. Where is she moving to?”

Stella asked the moving staff, but they said that the apartment was already empty when they came over. They were only in charge of moving and didn’t know anything else.

Arriving home, Sherry lay down on the sofa. She felt extremely exhausted and had no interest in minding other’s businesses.

Stella poured a glass of water. When she was drinking, Sherry said, “Stella, I heard that Chan posted the photo on all major newspapers. Do you think it works?”

Stella put down the water glass and smiled, “It doesn’t matter if it works or not. I never expected to find him.”

“But, why did you...”

“Since Chan got to know that I’m not Jeffrey Radomil’s biological daughter, he always feels guilty to me.”
