Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 205

After coming back home, Stella threw herself into the sofa, feeling very tired.

Sherry walked out of the bathroom with a mask on her face, “You come back so late. Did you have dinner with Emmett?”

Stella replied with a weak nasal sound, “I bumped into Clarence.”

Sherry, “…”

She sat beside Stella and asked in astonishment, “You bumped into him again? How unlucky!”

Stella smiled drily. She didn’t want to say anything now.

Sherry smoothed the mask on her face, “You two are really poorly predestined. You can live together happily, yet it’s hard for you to cut the relationship. What a noisy thing!”

Stella stared at the front dully. After a long while, she suddenly asked, “How’s Natalie?”

“The doctor checked her situation and said it just broke her skin. I gave her the medical charges and gave her a two-day holiday so that she would have a good rest.”

Stella nodded her head, “She must have been badly scared. Let’s visit her after getting off the work tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Sherry continued, “As far as I’m concerned, I guess that they were deliberately making a fuss. Nowadays here’re many ridiculous things. You may be accused of bumping even though you were just walking on the road, but now they even came to our store to blackmail us. Do they think that they could bully us effortlessly?”

Stella pondered for a while, “I guess that the girl was forced by her mother.”

“I think so. Her mom is like a tigress. What a back luck to be her daughter!” Sherry turned around. Seeing that Stella was lost in her thought, she immediately understood what was in her mind. She patted her on shoulder, “All right, Stella. It has been a past and you don’t need to be bothered by it. What we can do is to be ourselves and have a clear conscience.”

Stella pulled herself back to reality and smiled at her, “I see. Go to bed now.”

…

On the next morning…

When Stella arrived at her studio, she found a lot of wastes were piled in front of the door and they were so stinky.

After parking the car, Sherry walked over. When seeing this scene, she cursed angrily, “Damn it. Which one did it?”

Stella pressed her lips together. She found some tools and cleaned the wastes at the door.

Sherry cursed while cleaning the wastes, “It must be that tigress, right? I guess it must be her. She looks ferocious and immoral.”

Stella said, “She won’t stop easily. Be careful during this period.”

“Rest assured. I will order a flash delivery for some surveillance cameras right away to monitor every place inside and outside of the store. We will be highly vigilant if that woman comes.”

As Natalie didn’t come today, only Sherry and the other girl were in the store today. Luckily, nothing happened in the morning and it was just a bit abnormal.

Usually their store would have many guests everyday although many of them would not buy products in the end. But during this morning, only two guests entered the store.

Sherry was sure that it was because of that middle-aged woman. She wanted to go out to investigate it, but was then stopped by Stella.

Stella said, “Let’s see what she wants to do.”

Sherry asked, “Are you doubting…”

“I’m not sure.” Stella looked out of the door, “I just feel it fishy. Although she’s blackmailing us, it’s true that those things were sold in our store. So she would not seek troubles for us out of no reason.”

“Yep. I also think it weird. How ridiculous!”

Stella said slowly, “Let’s wait.”

After the noon, when Stella was about to enter her office, she heard a noise from the door.

The middle-aged woman seemed to have changed her strategy. She was now sitting on the ground in front of Stella’s studio and making a fuss.

“Hey, come to have a look at this unscrupulous merchant. My daughter is only 17 years old. She’s still a senior high school student. They even defrauded a kid. Are there still justice nowadays?”

Her words attracted many passengers and the front of Stella’s store was tightly packed with onlookers.
