She took the IOU, carefully knocked on the door of the study and repeatedly said that she would certainly find a way to return the money to him.
During the whole process, Clarence kept looking at her coldly and his eyes were full of mockery and disdain.
During that time, she could hardly get out of bed and her whole body was full of revenge done by him.
When Clarence gave her the money, he said sarcastically without any disguise, “Don’t need to return it. Isn’t this the reason why you used so many means to marry me?”
Stella did not say anything. Thanks to the capitalist who criticized her for not having a dream, she really did not have money to pay back now.
But, she did not care whether Clarence did not let her return or not. She still left the IOU with him.
But, it sounded right too. They had already divorced so it was reasonable that he asked her to return the money to him.
Sherry, who was watching the drama in the room happily, suddenly heard the ‘bang’ sounds from the kitchen.
She walked over and asked, “Dear, what are you chopping?”
“Clarence!”
“Huh?”
Stella calmed down and looked at the ginger that had been crumbled in front of her. She finally returned to normal, “Nothing, I have to go out later. You don’t have to wait for me, go to bed early.”
Without even guessing, Sherry could know that Clarence was looking for her trouble again. She frowned and said, “What does he want to do again, you guys have already divorced but he still doesn’t want to stop.”
“Forget it, it’s because I owe him.”
“It’s fine now but after two months, your belly will become bigger and by that time, you can’t hide it anymore.”
The knife in Stella’s hand was hanging in the air. She did not say anything for a while.
Yeah, as long as the two-million-yuan debt was not paid off, she would always owe Clarence and would never be able to stay away from him.
Based on Clarence’s personality, if he knew she was pregnant now, he might have held her down on the operating table to prevent her from coercing him using this excuse to let him remarry her again.
After a while, Stella said, “I’ll talk clearly to him tonight.”
An hour later, in Starry Lake Mansion…
When the doorbell rang, the maid, who was in torment, immediately made a beeline for the door to open it. Her smile that was formed just now as if she had become the survivor of a disaster abruptly disappeared when she saw the person outside the door.
When Clarence came downstairs and saw the maid coming in with a young man who was carrying a thermally insulated container, his face turned livid.
The young man was also shocked by the spiritless atmosphere. He stammered while asking, “Is…is this Mr. Conrad? This is the thing that Ms. Radomil gave you. You should have a pickup code in the message on your phone, can…can you give me?”
“…”
Clarence pursed his thin lips, contained his anger and took out the phone.
After the young man obtained the pickup code, he ran away quickly.
Less than two minutes after the young man left, the landline of Starry Lake Mansion rang.
The maid did not dare to pick up the ringing phone so she found an excuse and ran away.
Only when the phone was about to end did Clarence pick up the receiver.
Soon, Stella’s voice sounded, “Mr. Conrad, you’ve received the sobering soup, right? The ingredients are limited so the amount I made is only enough for one time. If you still need it next time, I’ll make it and order a courier to send it to you.”
Stella paused for a while before saying, “Regarding the matter of two million yuan, can we discuss it for a while?”
Clarence sneered, “Discuss? Is this your sincerity?”
Stella also knew that ordering a courier to send it to him would definitely make him very unhappy. But just like what Sherry had said, it was still fine now but in another two to three months, what could she do if he still kept looking for her?
Instead of trying to find excuses when the time came, it was better to keep a distance from the beginning.
