Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 277

Upon hearing the complaint from the other end of the line, Stella suddenly felt as if she was a truly evil woman.

She muttered, “You will come to be when you want to see me. If you don’t come here, it means you are busy, doesn’t it? Why should I waste my effort to look for you?”

After a pause, Clarence asked, “Have you read the recent news?”

“Yes, I have.”

“I’m dealing with the matter of Steward family, a bit busy recently.”

Stella said, “I see.”

Clarence said, “If you miss me indeed, come to see me in Conrad Group.”

“Thanks for your invitation. I never thought of that.”

On the other end of the line, Clarence snorted, “I’ve got to go.” He hung up.

Stella put down the phone. She checked the time and found it was eleven o’clock. The wretched man was still in Conrad Group right now.

She lay on the bed, tossing about, unable to fall asleep.

After around half an hour, she suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up. Then she took a coat from the closet and walked out of her apartment.

The streets were empty at night, but the street lamps were shining.

Soon, her taxi was pulled over at the entrance of Conrad Group’s building.

Stella got off. Standing at the entrance, she suddenly sobered up under the cold wind.

She had been somewhat reckless to come over here so suddenly.

She walked to the roadside, pulled out her cell phone to call a cab, but her finger didn’t tab the confirm button.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Stella put her phone back into the pocket of her coat. She turned around and walked into the building.

The CEO’s office, Conrad Group.

Nathan said, “Mr. Conrad, we’ve lost them. But I’m sure William has them.”

Clarence knocked on the desk with his slender fingers, squinting, lost in thought.

“Now Mr. Steward is still looking for the person who has exposed all the series of things. He hasn’t found out Daniel and William for the time being.”

Clarence chuckled with a faint smile, “They’ve been well prepared become taking any action. Even if he wants to look into them, he can’t find anything at all.”

Judging from the current situation, Clarence realized that William just made the cooperation with Conrad Group an excuse. His purpose was to come to City N with a proper reason.

“Mr. Dempsey has called off the engagement with the Steward family. I guess he didn’t want to draw fire against himself and aimed to get rid of the relationship early.”

Clarence curled up his lips into a sneer. After a few seconds, he asked, “How is it going with Joanna Perez?”

“Mrs. Joanna should take action pretty soon. We’re fully prepared.”

Clarence hummed.

Nathan added, “By the way, Mr. Conrad, there’s another thing.”

“Go ahead.”

“The cigarette butt sent by Mrs. Conrad’s brother has been sent to the test. According to the DNA test, it belonged to Jeffrey Radomil.”

Clarence creased his brows slightly, “Jeffrey Radomil?”

Nathan nodded, “About the accident that happened back then, the prison said it was a fire caused by the prison break. However, everything seemed to be quite unclear. All the bodies were charred. There’s no evidence to prove that Jeffrey Radomil was certainly dead.”

Right then, there were a few knocks on the door of the office.

Nathan immediately stopped speaking and walked to open the door. As soon as he saw Stella, he was a bit surprised, “Hi, Ms. Radomil?”
