Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 265

Since it was the new year, Sherry didn’t give Daniel a hard time during lunch.

Stella and Channing went to Jeffrey’s grave after lunch.

Stella couldn’t utter a word looking at the picture on the tomb.

She hated Jeffrey when he was alive and wished countless time that she was not his daughter.

And her wished came true.

There was no father and daughter love between them all the while, it was irony to look back at what happened.

Channing bent and put the flower in front of the tomb. He looked calm.

After a few minutes, “Let’s go,” Stella said.

Channing stood up and ready to go but saw a cigarette butt at the side of the grave.

“What happened?” Stella asked.

Channing frowned, “No one else would visit Jeffrey apart from us.”

Stella nodded. “No one else knows his grave is here.”

Channing moved his lips and asked Stella, “Do you have any tissue?”

“Yes.” Stella took out a small packet of tissue from her pocket and gave it to Channing.

Channing took out all the tissues and picked up the cigarette butt and put it back in the packet.

Stella frowned looking at him, “Channing…”

Channing replied, “We have to be cautious.”

This was the first time Stella saw Channing being this cautious. She asked after a few steps. “Channing, do you know something?”

“What?”

Stella opened her mouth but stopped, “Nothing, will you hand it over to the police?”

Channing became quiet for a while, “When will you go to Emmett’s home?”

Stella, “…” Alright, she won’t ask anymore.

After they were out from the graveyard, Stella said, “Channing, go home first, I’ll go buy something.”

Even though Emmett said not to prepare gifts, but since she agreed, it’s rude to visit the elderly empty-handed.

Stella headed to the mall after bidding Channing goodbye. She didn’t know Emmett’s parents, didn’t know their preferences, so she bought some nutritious products.

It was five in the evening when Stella arrived home.

There was a missed call and an unread text on her mobile.

She bit her lips, kept her mobile aside and pressed the password.

Sherry was alone laying on the couch, watching TV while having snacks.

She looked up hearing sound, “Stella, why are you so late?”

“I went to buy something.” Stella changed her shoes, “Channing is not back yet?”

“No, I thought he’s with you,” Sherry replied.

“I asked him to come back first.”

Stella sat on the couch, thought for a while and decided to call Channing.

He must have had brought the cigarette butt somewhere.

Sherry said, “Stella, stop worrying about Channing, he is an adult, he knows what he is doing.”

“I feel that he is behaving weirdly lately, he hide something from me.”
