Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 240

Clarence looked at her for an instant with his black eyes. Then, after a while, he said suddenly, “They have already left. If you still want to buy it, I can accompany you to queue up to buy it.”

“… No need. I’m just kidding.”

She just wanted to make the wretched man angry, so that he would throw down Yue Lao Plate and leave.

She didn’t expect him to be so unusual, making her embarrassed.

Clarence smiled without her noticing, and then took her hand again and slowly walked forward with her.

When Clarence hung Yue Lao Plate by the river, Stella looked around to hide her nervousness and embarrassment.

As soon as Yue Lao Plate was hung by Clarence, Stella said, “It’s getting late. I have to go now. Take your time to stroll around.”

After saying that, she strode forward and left in a hurry.

After they left Yue Lao Temple, Stella felt that the air was much fresher without the crowd. She let out a long breath and took out her mobile phone. Just as she wanted to take a taxi back, her wrist was held by Clarence, “Come here.”

Stella pouted. She didn’t expect the wretched man to be able to follow her as she had run so fast.

They spent a lot of time at Yue Lao Temple. When they got back to Anqiao Street, it was already ten o’clock at night.

Normally Dolores should have already gone to bed at this time.

But at this moment, the lights in the courtyard were still on. They could hear the sound of a baby crying coming from inside the house.

Stella heard the crying sound and hurriedly ran in.

In the courtyard, Dolores was holding the baby and coaxing him gently.

Stella asked, “Ms. Anderson, what’s wrong with him?”

Dolores said, “Don’t worry. It’s normal for children to be like this at night. He is just fussy. He will be fine once he falls asleep.”

Stella held out her hand, “Let me hug him.”

Dolores handed the baby into Stella’s arms.

After Stella had coaxed him for a while, the baby no longer cried so loud. However, he was still sobbing.

While hugging the baby, Stella asked, “Where’s Ms. Beckham?”

Dolores immediately said, “Ms. Beckham caught a cold when she went out this afternoon and was afraid of infecting the baby, so she asked me to help her to put him to sleep.”

Stella did not suspect Dolores’s words at all.

Ms. Anderson had always had a good relationship with Ms. Beckham. The two of them did not have many relatives to talk with. They had become almost like siblings and it was normal for them to help each other.

Stella nodded. She thought that the baby might be crying so hard after realizing his grandmother was not with him.

After hugging him for a while, Stella noticed that the baby’s round eyes kept looking at the side, and his little hands were waving at somebody.

She looked in the direction in which he was looking at. Then, she licked her lips and took a step forward, “Mr. Conrad, do you want to hug him?”

Clarence frowned. He displayed an expression as if he was very reluctant to do so.

Stella said, “Why don’t you just hug him for a while. Look how cute he is.”

Clarence gently raised his eyelids and said unhurriedly, “You’re cuter.”

Stella was speechless.

Her face instantly turned red. She was very nervous as if her whole body was on fire.

Not far away, Dolores coughed and found an excuse to go back to her room.

When Stella saw this, he really wanted to find a crack in the ground and vanish from it.

When he saw Clarence’s hand reaching out, he immediately took several steps back and said warily, “What are you doing?”
