Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 229

The door of his room was slammed closed and Stella slowly withdrew her lines of sights.

She pressed her lips and said, “Emmett, actually, I’ve been considering whether to try to be with you during this period. But I’m sorry, I…”

“Stella, you also said it, we can try to be with each other. It’s just the beginning. You don’t have to refuse me so quickly.”

Stella shook her head.

She couldn’t try to be with Emmett when she herself was having an entangled relationship with Clarence. It would be unfair to Emmett.

Emmett said, “Stella, I know what you’re thinking. You and Clarence are different. I can distinguish it.”

“It’s not so, Emmett. I didn’t mean it.” After pondering for several seconds, Stella continued, “I once thought that I know clearly about what I want. When I divorced Clarence, I thought I won’t regret it. But now…”

“Do you change your mind now?”

Stella was suddenly lost for words.

It was true that she changed her mind now.

In the past, she thought that she was even less important than a document in his office to Clarence.

But now, she realized that Clarence was serious.

She saw his sincerity tonight.

Seeing that Stella was silent, Emmett knew that his guess was right.

He paused and then continued, “You lived with Clarence for three years before and it’s normal that you still have some feelings for him after divorcing him. Stella, I can wait for you. I can wait until you decide to forget him and start your new life.”

Stella would tell herself to ‘start a new life’ before. She thought that as long as she started a new life, she could wholly say goodbye to the past.

But today she finally realized that this wouldn’t work.

No matter how she wanted to start her new life, the things happened in her life would never be removed out of her memory.

In her three-year marriage life with Clarence, even though she knew clearly that he detested her so much, she still gradually fell for her after living with him every day. Even though she criticized him wickedness every day, she still uncontrollably became soft-hearted.

It would be so good if the things in this world were all as simple as they were in imagination.

Emmett said, “Stella, it’s late now. Have a rest early. We can talk about it later.”

Stella also felt tired, so she nodded her head, “You should go to bed early too.”

After coming back to her room, Stella lay down on the bed and looked blankly at the ceiling, seeming to be pondering something.

Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.

She slowly walked to the door. When she opened the door, she saw a staff of the hotel.

The staff handed her a gift box and her phone, “Miss, these are the things you left in the villa.”

Stella abruptly came to her sense when seeing her phone. She left it on the sofa before and forgot to take it back.

As for the gift box, the staff that drove her up the hill said that it was a present from the hotel.

But according to what happened tonight, she guessed that it was presented by Clarence.

Stella took the gift box and the phone from the staff and said, “Thank you.”

The staff bowed to her and then turned around and left.

Stella closed the door and found that the wounds on her feet were opened again. So she could only jump to the bed.
