Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 168

Clarence looked colder. He looked up at Emmett, “Fuck off.”

Emmett turned around and cast a glance. Then he withdrew his gaze, “Mr. Conrad, I heard you call Stella just now. Do you know each other?”

“None of your business.”

“But I can tell that Stella didn’t want to meet you, Mr. Conrad. In that case, why do you have to force her?”

Clarence sneered, “Did she tell you in person that she didn’t want to meet me?”

Emmett was speechless.

She didn’t.

But her behaviors told him obviously.

However, Emmett didn’t want to make the way.

When they were stalemated, Clarence saw a figure out of the corner of his eyes. He indifferently called, “Sherry Perry.”

That figure stiffed and then sped up to escape.

Clarence called in a colder tone, “Sofia Cooper.”

Sherry choked up.

She had a hunch that this name would be with her forever.

She dared not to escape anymore, afraid that Clarence the wretched man would get even with her later. With a wry smile, she moved over reluctantly, “Hahaha... Mr. Conrad, how are you doing? I wondered who was calling me just now. It turns out to be you, the most handsome Mr. Conrad. You are so stunning that I couldn’t recognize you just now.”

Nathan thought to himself, ‘What an ass kisser! She’s better than me in doing so.’

Emmett calmed down and asked, “Sherry, do you know Mr. Conrad?”

Sherry was about to answer, but suddenly she recalled that she aimed to matchmake Stella and Emmett. How could she tell Emmett that Clarence was Stella’s ex-husband? She lost her tongue and couldn’t utter a beep.

Right then, Nathan took the chance and walked to her, “Excuse me, Ms. Perry. I contacted you earlier.”

Sherry was taken aback, “Earlier?”

Nathan answered, “Yeah. Half an hour ago.”

Sherry choked up.

She was wondering how come the wretched man could have appeared here. It turned out that she was trapped.

Sherry digested the information and her brain worked fast. Then she said to Emmett, “Mr. Conrad is the client of our studio. He came to ask Stella to design a necklace. Emmett, you can go back to the box. I’ll talk to Mr. Conrad about the design and go back later.”

Upon hearing it, Emmett was relieved. He nodded in agreement and turned away.

After he was gone, Clarence said impatiently, “Call her to come back.”

In front of the aggressive stress from capitalism, Sherry could only compromise. In Clarence’s presence, she dialed Stella’s number. She whispered, “Stella, the client who called me earlier has arrived...”

The next second, she let out a hollow laugh, “What a coincidence! The client turns out to be Mr. Conrad... What? You’ve already gone home because of your tummy. Okay. What a pity. I guess Mr. Conrad is kind enough to understand it...”

Before Sherry finished her words, her cell phone was snatched.

Clarence said in a cold tone, “Come to me in five minutes. Or your friend can’t go back.”

Stella was speechless.

The wretched man was always good at threatening her.

After hanging up the phone, Stella had to come out from the corner of the corridor.

When she answered Sherry’s call, she didn’t talk at all. Sherry was speaking all by herself.

It was quite obvious - Clarence came over from their studio. Sherry was reminding her to escape.

Thinking of that, Stella couldn’t help frowning, wondering if the wretched man was still on his right mind recently.
