Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 220

Emmett walked Stella to her room door and gave her the room card. “Stella, I’m staying opposite your room. I’ll come to find you if it’s time to go downstairs.”

Stella smiled and nodded in agreement. “Okay. Thanks.”

After entering her room, Stella put down her suitcase, washed her face in the bathroom, and walked to the balcony to enjoy the breeze.

Her room was facing the artificial lake. From afar, the lake looked prettier. Under the sunshine, it looked as if there were countless small diamonds on its surface, dazzling.

Stella shook her head to get those messy thoughts out of her mind.

Under the bright sunlight, she stretched, feeling quite cozy. When she turned around, she found a man standing on the balcony next door.

Stella gaped.

Her stretch was stopped halfway and her hands were in the mid-air. She stiffed.

However, Clarence seemed not to see her at all. He looked ahead expressionlessly.

Stella slowly put down her hands. Her lips parted as if she was wondering if she should greet him.

For such a matter that happened with an extremely small possibility, Stella didn’t think it was a coincidence.

It happened as if someone had done it so deliberately.

She couldn’t help but wonder what the wretched man doing again.

He couldn’t stop it, could he?

Stella walked up to him. “Mr. Conrad...”

“By the way, Mr. Conrad, these are the annual financial statement of this retort and the development plan next year. We want to build a water amusement park next to the artificial lake, increasing more facilities,” a man reported to Clarence.

Stella gaped at the scene.

Right then, the man also seemed to have seen her. He turned around and asked politely, “Excuse me, Ma’am. I’m the manager of this hotel. What can I do for you?”

“Oh, no. Thanks. Sorry for interrupting you.”

Stella immediately ran back to her room, feeling extremely embarrassed.

She felt so fortunate that she hadn’t finished her words to Clarence.

Otherwise, that wretched man would ironically mock her for flattering herself.

On the balcony.

Clarence read through the financial statement in front of him. Then he handed it back to the manager.

The manager added, “Mr. Conrad, what do you think about our water amusement park?”

“Give me a detailed project plan.” As he spoke, Clarence glanced at the empty balcony next door. Then he looked at the lake afar and added flatly, “Adding an area for children.”

The manager hadn’t expected that Clarence would give this suggestion. After a short period of surprise, he reacted quickly and answered, “Yes, Mr. Conrad. I’ll ask them to finish the project plan as soon as possible.”

Clarence tidied his sleeves and walked back to his room.

Shortly after the manager was gone, Nathan knocked at the door and walked in. “Mr. Conrad, I’ve found the detailed schedule for Star Ferry Technology’s annual party.”

Clarence sat on the sofa, his slender fingers knocking at his knees. “Go ahead.”

“At noon, they’ll have lunch at the lake restaurant. In the afternoon, they’ll go boating and do other activities, which are not mandatory. At seven o’clock, they’ll hold the annual party in the banquet hall. Tomorrow morning, they’ll go climbing. After lunch, they’ll go back to City N.”

Clarence asked, “Have you arranged everything?”

Nathan nodded. “Mr. Conrad, please rest assured. I’ve already informed all different departments.”

Clarence raised his brows and turned to look out of the window, lost in thought.

...

Stella didn’t feel less embarrassed until she had soaked her face into the cold water. She wondered probably it was because of herself or the room, she found it quite difficult to breathe.
