Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 260

Seeing that the two were about to argue with all guns blazing, Sherry slipped away again.

Clarence put down his coffee cup and raised his eyes to look at Stella, “Am I that kind of person to you?”

“Yes or no, is it up to me?”

The wretched man had said before that he was a no-good. But, he sounded like he was being slandered at this moment.

Clarence said, “The resort needed to be booked a month ago. How do you think I could have foreseen that he was going to take you with him?”

Stella froze hearing this.

She hadn’t expected him to answer like that.

Clarence gave her a look and added, “I told you before that Emmett is not as simple as you seem. The only reason he would say this to you is because he is jealous of me.”

Stella subconsciously asked, “Jealous of you for what?”

“Jealous of me being the one you like.”

Stella was speechless.

She spoke with difficulty, “Mr. Conrad, do you think that everyone thinks the same way as you?”

Clarence said unhurriedly, “Then you should give me a reasonable explanation as to why he would lie to you.”

Stella was silent and couldn’t think of what to refute.

Clarence said, “Stella, you must know that I will never do anything to hurt you. All I want is that one thing. But, Emmett is different. You know nothing about his background and intentions.”

“Come on, quit while you’re ahead. You have also done those things before. Don’t act innocent.”

Clarence was speechless.

Stella sat on the sofa quietly.

It reminded her when the wretched man said this.

Daniel and Emmett were friends, and they should be here for the same purpose.

And they were aiming at the Steward family.

Thinking of this, Stella glanced at Clarence several times, but she didn’t say anything.

Clarence slowly said, “It’s not too late for you to apologize to me now.”

“Mr. Conrad.”

Hearing her sudden serious tone, Clarence looked at Stella as he raised his eyebrows slightly, gesturing for her to continue.

Stella gently pursed her lips, “If Phoebe marries your brother, will it have a big impact on you?”

“Caring about me?”

“Forget about it then.”

Clarence chuckled and finally spoke seriously, “It has not much impact, only that it will become a bit tricky when dealing with some matters. But, you don’t have to worry about me. It’s not a problem for me.”

Stella ignored his words, “I think that this union might not come to fruition in the end.”

She had always thought that Daniel and Emmett came prepared. But, since their target was the Steward family, how would they let Phoebe get engaged with Justin and expand the Steward family’s power?
