Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 190

Stella wished so much that she could find a hole on the ground to hide herself when she heard the words. She felt so embarrassed for him.

Could this wretched man not be so shameless?

William still maintained a smile on his face. He was in his forties and had been engaged in the business world for a long time. It was not his first time to see such a shameless person.

William looked at Stella with a touch of gloominess flashing across his eyes. He then complimented her, “Mrs. Conrad, you’re beautiful.”

Clarence said, “Beauty always matches with temper.”

Stella, “…”

Was he suggesting that she had a bad temper?

Stella sneered in her heart and then took the initiative to talk with William, “Mr. William, according to your accent, I guess that you’re a citizen of City N. Am I right?”

William paused when he heard the words. He then nodded his head, “Yep. But I’ve been living abroad for a long time.”

“Oh, then why do you come back to City N this time? Are you visiting your relatives, or travelling?”

William didn’t reply her question. He said, “I have no special schedule. And I’m here mainly for the cooperation.”

Stella also noticed that William evaded the question just now. She knew that she wasn’t supposed to mention that topic in front of William.

She pondered for a while, and still chose to touch his bottom line, “Mr. William, you’ve been abroad for a long time, do you have any relative in City N?

William picked up his cup and curled his lips into a light smile, “No.”

“Then…”

When Stella was about to ask some other questions, Clarence put a piece of cake into her mouth.

Clarence said, “Don’t talk when you’re eating. Be careful that you may bite your tongue.”

When Stella swallowed the cake with difficulty, Clarence and William had started to talk about others and she couldn’t find a chance to get a word in. So Stella could only remain silent again.

During the meal, Stella went to the restroom.

But she hadn’t expected that she would bump into an acquaintance here.

Daniel was also surprised when he saw Stella.

He asked, “Ms. Radomil, I’m surprised to meet you here.”

Stella replied, “I’m here to have dinner. What about you?”

Daniel shook his head and said slowly, “I was invited to have a performance here.”

“Oh,” Stella said, “Then I will not bother you. Let’s talk later.”

Daniel slightly nodded his head.

After Stella’s leaving, he squinted at her back, seeming to be thinking of something.

Stella didn’t want to come back to the private room so quickly. She walked to a gazebo of the hotel to enjoy the cold breezes.

When she calmed down, she realized that she had gone too far just now.

Although she wanted to mess up the cooperation, no matter what, it was inappropriate to touch William’s painful past.

What was her difference with Clarence then?

Stella took a deep breath. When she felt it chilling, she headed towards the private room.

There was only William in the room.

William broke the silence, “Mrs. Conrad, Mr. Conrad is looking for you.”

Stella replied, “I’m sorry. I went to the gazebo just now.”

William chuckled, “It must be boring to hear we two talking about the business.”

“Nope. It’s just that I…” Stella pressed her lips together, “Mr. William, I’m sorry for my rudeness just now.”

William added some tea into his cup, “Oh, Mrs. Conrad, what are you mentioning?”

“I shouldn’t have asked you about your private affairs. I’m so sorry.”

“It doesn’t matter.” William continued, “I noticed that there seems to be some conflicts between you and Mr. Conrad. So you deliberately asked those questions just now, right.”
