Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 251

Clarence squinted. If Charles would go to Mr. Thomas’s birthday banquet, he would definitely meet Stella face-to-face.

Clarence believed that by then he would probably know what on earth Charles was planning.

Nathan said, “Mr. Conrad, besides Charles Steward and Mr. Carter, Mr. William will attend the banquet as well.”

Clarence said indifferently, “Do you think it’s a coincidence or a plan for Daniel to meet Phoebe?”

“Mr. Conrad, you meant...”

“Recently, Vincent found that the first startup funding for Emmett’s Star Ferry Technology when it was found abroad was from a company named Hertz. This company also cooperated with Complex Corporation soon after that. The owner of Complex Corporation is quite close to William.”

Clarence sensed that Daniel, Emmett, William, and even Cameron had certain connections with each other.

As long as he looked into them more deeply, he could see the complicated network between them. He could tell that they seemed to appear with a certain common goal.

Cameron hadn’t held a banquet to celebrate his birthday for several years. At this critical moment, things that happened should be not so simple.

And a corner of the layers of mist would probably be exposed tomorrow night.

Clarence said, “Add more guards around the hotel tomorrow. Stella is always stupid on this kind of matter. She could only walk into others’ trap step by step.”

Nathan whispered, “Mr. Carter shouldn’t be using Mrs. Conrad, and nor would he do anything to harm her...”

Before finishing his words, he felt a cold gaze from the opposite. Immediately, he swallowed back the words and answered, “Okay, Mr. Conrad. I’ll get it done now.”

As the door of the office was closed, the office was back to silent again.

Clarence leaned against the back of his chair, looking at the re-framed photo on his desk. He pressed his thin lips, lost in thought.

Shortly after, his phone rang.

It was a call from Vincent, “You are right. Your trace in Aqock has been exposed. Joanna Perez is looking for your mother.”

Clarence curled his lips into a sneer, “She acted pretty soon.”

“Not only are the bodyguards from the Perez family working for Joanna Perez. I can’t even find out the background of others.”

Clarence said flatly, “Soon the force behind her would make a move.”

By then, Joanna would have walked into his trap step by step.

...

At six o’clock in the evening, Emmett appeared at the door of the studio, “Hi, Stella. Are you ready?”

Stella picked up the gift on the cashier’s desk and smiled at him, “Yes. Let’s go.”

She didn’t know what kind of gift she should take, but she recalled the tea set in Cameron’s house. Hence, she bought some tea to please him.

Sitting in the car, after a long while, Emmett said, “Stella, there’s something that I haven’t told you yet.”

“What is it?”

“Clarence Conrad will go to the birthday banquet tonight as well. You would meet definitely. But, it’s alright, I’ll be always with you. On that occasion, I don’t think he would dare to go too far.”

Stella slightly nodded without speaking. She didn’t know what to say.

After twenty minutes, the car was parked at the hotel entrance.

Cameron was a highly respected man in City N. The guests attending his birthday banquet were all influential ones in town.
