Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 232

When Channing was hack, Stella was laughing and chatting with Sherry. Her smile frozen immediately as she turned around to find his clothes were dirty and there were bruises on his face. She strode to him and frowned, “Chan, what happened to you?”

Channing tilted his head, “Nothing. Only minor injuries. It doesn’t matter.”

“It matters. You didn’t look like this way when you left. Tell me the truth. Where have you been?”

Sherry came to join Stella, “Right, Chan, what happened to you? Come on.”

Stella’s frown grew deeper and she felt something bad happened, “Did you ….”

Channing said in a calm voice, “I just had a fight with my classmates. It’s not serious as you think.”

“Why did you fight with your classmates?”

Channing seemed not want to talk about it, “Just a fight, no reasons.”

Stella didn’t believe him and tried to say something, but Sherry stopped her, “It’s fine. Fight is common between young men. You don’t worry. He is a grownup and he knows what he is doing.”

Sherry touched Channing as she said, “Don’t stand here. Go and have your injuries treated, or they will become inflamed.”

“Ok.”

Channing turned and entered the back staff room.

Sherry touch Stella with her elbow, “You are still worried?”

Stella shook her head, “I think Chan didn’t tell the truth.”

Channing was not an impulsive person who would fight with classmates out of small conflicts.

And when he left the studio, his expression showed that he was going to do something important.

Sherry explained, “Chan didn’t tell you the truth because he don’t want you to worry you. He come back safe and sound, so everything is alright.”

Stella breathed a sigh of relief, “I hope so.”

After a while, the staff room was opened.

Channing was sterilizing his wounds with a swab. He put down the sab when he saw Stella showed up at the door, “I really fine.”

Stella came to sit beside the sofa and took a band-aid to cover his wound, “Fighting with classmates is big deal. Why don’t you explain it?”

Channing pressed his lips in silence.

“You do this once and once only.”

“Got it.”

Stella added, “I’ll leave for Aqock tomorrow night. I’ll be back in two or three days. You’d better find a new house and move out from Daniel’s house.”

Channing understood what Stella mean. He was quiet for a while and then said, “I don’t think he did it on purpose.”

“Whatever. It is past and it’s meaningless to keep talking about it. I simply think you should keep staying at his house and bothering him. What’s more, as you can see, nothing happened to my place recently.”

Channing nodded, “I’ll move tomorrow.”

Stella got up, “Find a new house first. I’ll transfer the money ….”

Channing interrupted her and said in a serious voice, “I got money.”

Stella smiled, “Fine, I’ll leave it to you.”

When she was about to leave, Channing asked abruptly, “How’s it going between you and Emmett?”

“What?”

“You said you wanted to give it a try, so how’s it going now?”

Stella paused for a few seconds and then answered, “You are right. I don’t like him, so it’s meaningless to try it.”

“Then ….” Channing touched his neck and looked away awkwardly, “Will you marry Clarence again?”

Stella seemed haven’t expected that he would ask that suddenly. She stood there astonished for seconds and didn’t know what to say.

Looking at Stella’s reaction, Channing coughed, “I feel that he is not as annoying as before. If you … still like him, I have no objection.”

Hearing that, Stella couldn’t help laughing out loud, “Didn’t you drive him away last time? Why do you change your mind?”

Channing defended himself, “I didn’t drive him away. I just asked him to have a good think and don’t hurt your anymore ….”

Stella said, “Fine, don’t bother it. There’s no work in the studio today. Let’s have a meal.”

Stella stopped at the door and turned to Channing in a sudden, “Shall we invite Winnie to join us?”

Channing was confused for a second and then asked, “She is your friend. Why asking me?”

Stella tried to suppress her smile, “Nothing, I’m just asking. She has been hiding overseas because of your affair. I’m wondering if she comes back. I want to apologize and thank her in person. How do you think?”

“….” Channing looked away from her face, cleared his throat, pressed his lips and then said, “You are right.”

“Then I’ll ask if she is back.”

Stella raised one of her eyebrows and then left the staff room.

She texted Winnie while walked away.

As a matter of fact, Winnie didn’t go overseas. The evil and merciless capitalist Clarence only gave her two days off and then got her a tight schedule.

When she got Stella’s message, she was shooting a commercial. To complete her lie, Winnie had no choice but tell Stella that she just got off the plane in Hawaii.

Stella texted, “Ok, see you when you are back.”

Winnie agreed with tears in her eyes.

At 11:30 pm, the plane landed at the Aqock Airport on time.

The temperature of Aqock seemed always to be lower than that of City N. As soon as she got off the plane, Stella was met by freezing air.

She zipped her down jacket up to her chin and put on the hat. When she was about to walk into the hall, she saw a group of bodyguards walking out from the hall with a woman at the center. The woman was covered from toe to head. Even her eyes couldn’t be seen.

They looked strange and nervous.

Stella got a hit when they passed by her.

Stella looked at the group in confusion.

A few minutes later, Stella walked out from the washing room. Before long, she heard a familiar female voice coming from a corner, “What the hell! Have you got everything arranged? How long are you going to keep me waiting?”

“Miss Conrad, please be patient. We are doing this for your safety. If we don’t be cautious, you’ll be discovered.”

Annie cursed, “It’s all the bitch and the bastard’s fault. I’ll wait and see. I must give them a lesson!”

Stella stood there and gave a smile in silence.

It was surprising to meet Annie Conrad who became a fugitive at the airport.

No one knew it was fate or coincidence.

However, Annie Conrad still showed no regret even in such conditions.

At this moment, a bodyguard noticed Stella and asked in alert, “Who’s there?”
