Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 309

The next day, when the alarm sounded, Stella woke up. She fumbled for her phone on the nightstand as usual but failed to find it.

She kept listening to the alarm with her eyes closed for a long while, only to find that the sound came from underneath the bed.

When she was about to stretch out to get her phone, the strength of the hand that was wrapping around her waist was slightly increased. She was pulled back.

Off-guard, Stella fell into the man’s arms again.

Clarence kissed her on the back of her ear. He said in a sleepy and hoarse tone, “Let’s sleep in.”

“I want to turn off the alarm.” After a pause, Stella asked, “It’s eight o’clock. Don’t you go to work?”

“I don’t want to.”

Stella whispered, “But I need to go to my studio.”

After a few seconds, Clarence gradually opened his eyes and said hoarsely, “You are quite spirited. Didn’t you cry and beg me to stop last night?”

Stella choked up.

She slightly blushed. “It’s early morning. Can’ you speak the human language?”

“I don’t even want to be a human. Why should I speak the human language?”

As he spoke, his hand on her waist became quite restless, gradually moving upwards.

Stella couldn’t keep breathing calmly. “You...”

The man gently kissed her neck, demanding more. “You can go to work later today. Don’t you have employees in your studio?”

“I can’t...”

Before she finished her words, she couldn’t utter any sound at all.

Soon, the morning passed.

When Stella arrived at her studio, it was one o’clock in the afternoon.

She felt painful and sore all over her body, making her keep cursing the wretched man.

Sherry was watching a soap opera while sitting at the front desk. Seeing that Stella dragged herself in, Sherry had an ambiguous look on her face, following Stella into her office.

As soon as Stella turned around, she saw Sherry standing right behind her. She was startled. Patting her chest, Stella came back to her senses. “What are you doing, Sherry?”

Sherry closed the door of her office, pulled a stool to sit next to Stella, and winked at her. “How did you like last night?”

Under her gaze, Stella felt quite uneasy. Rubbing her nose, she sat on her chair. “What...”

“When will you move into the Steward’s? Maybe I should stay out tonight as well so Mr. Conrad and you can have your private space. If I go home, I will not only interrupt you but also make Mr. Conrad’s kindness in vain, right?”

Stella was speechless.

She moved her neck and said in a sleepy tone, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Sherry clicked her tongue. “All right. I’m talking about nonsense now. I can see the kissing mark on your neck.”

Upon hearing it, Stella suddenly pulled up her collar.

She felt a bit puzzled as she deliberately wore a turtleneck today, and she also ensured not to expose anything before leaving home.

Sherry held back her laughter. “Just kidding.”

Stella patted her crossly. “I’m going to draw the design draft now. Go back to your work.”

Sherry stood up. “Oh, by the way, when will you move? Something happened to my family. I need to go home recently.”

Stella asked, “What happened?”

“Nothing serious. My mom twisted her ankle, so she needs to stay in the hospital for a few days. My father isn’t good at taking care of others at all. I haven’t been home for a long time, so I’ll take the chance to go back and visit them.”

Stella nodded in agreement. “Sure, please go ahead. I should move in the Stewards’ in two days.”

“I see, almost the same time. I’ve told the landlord we’re moving out. I’ll move out when I come back in town.”

Stella couldn’t know where she would be and what she would be doing when Sherry moved out. After thinking for a while, she said, “Call Chan when you are moving. He can help you.”

“What if Chan asks me where you’ve gone?”
