Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 201

Stella asked, “Are you sure that you bought it half a month ago?”

The middle-aged woman got a word in, “Why do you ask when she bought the products? They were sold in your store and you should return the money and compensate me. Cut the craps.”

Stella took a glance at the broken necklace that was thrown onto the ground by that middle-aged woman before and then asked the little girl, “Do you remember who sold them to you? Were they sold by the girl just now?”

The girl hurriedly replied, “Yep, it was her.”

“How much did you buy them?”

“I… I don’t remember…”

The middle-aged woman became impatient, “Enough is enough. It’s just worthy of several hundreds. Why do you have many questions? You’re the owner of such a big store and I guess that you’re not in short of money. Hurry up to return the money and this will come to an end.”

Stella said with a light smile, “How can I return the money to you if I don’t know the price.”

The middle-aged woman retorted, “You will have to compensate for my spiritual damage and the loss of working time. You can give them to me together. Why did you separate them?”

“How much do you want?”

“Not that much. Twenty or thirty thousand.”

Stella couldn’t help but let out a chuckle, “Twenty or thirty thousand?”

The middle-aged woman replied, “It’s not that much, right? My daughter is still a student and she doesn’t go to school today because of this matter. If she can’t keep abreast with the teacher’s tempo after coming back to school and fails to be admitted by a renewed university and can’t get a good job in the future because of this, it will be a great loss. I didn’t ask for too much.”

“Okay.”

When speaking, Stella took out her phone.

The middle-aged money showed her OR code of payment to Stella triumphantly, but at the next moment, Stella called the police.

“Yuck, you…” The middle-aged woman seemed to be a bit nervous, “If you think that the compensation is high, we can negotiate it. I have to remind you that I will not get even with it if we come to the please. It’s your reputation that will be ruined.”

Stella ignored her and concisely narrated the situation to the police.

After ending the call, Stella raised the necklace in her hand and said in a flat tone, “Firstly, I designed and produced this necklace ten days ago and it was sold in the store about one week ago. Secondly, the girl pushed by you just now asked for a leave several days ago and she only came back yesterday.”

Seeing that her scheme was exposed, the middle-aged woman began to make a scene, “I don’t care about that. I just know that the necklace was bought from your store. So you must compensate me.”

Stella replied, “I’m not in a hurry. Let’s talk about it in the police office.”

The middle-aged woman turned around and began to curse at her daughter, “Useless thing. You even forget when you bought it.”

When speaking, she poked at her daughter’s head with great force, “No wonder that you have poor performance in school. Are there only shits in your brain? Thing over the words you want to say before speaking when the police come later.”

The girl simply stood on the spot with her head lowered.

Stella noticed that the girl’s school uniform was washed-up. It was winter now, but she only had one sweater under her thin uniform. She was wearing a pair of old-fashioned and ordinary sports shoes, but they were quite clean. She was quite different from her mother who had fatty cheeks and wore a marten coat.

Such a girl would by no means buy accessories with her parents’ hard-earned money because she would not pursue beauty blindly.

As a matter of fact, as long as one observed it carefully, he/she would find out that the woman’s words were full of holes.

But Stella couldn’t understand why they would blackmail her.
