Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 338

Stella suddenly had a hunch that Charles was purposely bringing her here.

He must have two motives for doing this.

The first one was to pry out the location of her mother’s grave, and to force her to kneel down in front of his wife like what they were about to do now.

If she didn’t agree to do this, he would have reason to brand her as an unfilial daughter, which gave a boost to this argument that she must have a motive for entering the Steward family.

She had to give up on her personal feelings for now, seeing that she should value the bigger picture.

If she wanted to find out more information, she couldn’t get herself shunned by the Steward family at this moment.

If she needed to kneel down, she would just do it. It’s not the end of the world.

She even addressed Jeffrey as her dad for some time before this too.

Just as Stella was about to kneel down, a sound broke her actions, “Mr. Steward, Ms. Radomil.”

Charles and Stella both turned in the direction of the voice.

They never anticipated bumping into William here.

William had a bouquet of flowers in his hand as he flashed a smile, “Are you here to give your prayers?”

Charles was obviously irritated at his interjection, but he tried to maintain his composure, “Mr. William, why are you here?”

William answered, “I am here to visit an old friend. It’s a coincidence to bump into you here.”

Then, he turned his attention to the tombstone in front of Stella and studied the woman with a smiling face, “Who is this person?”

Charles had a distant look in his eyes, “It’s my wife.”

“So it’s Mrs. Steward. Sorry for not being able to recognize at first glance.”

Charles waved his hands dismissively, “You don’t have to bother yourself with me, Mr. William.”

William slightly nodded before greeting Stella in the process. Then, he continued to walk forward.

Immediately after that, Charles’ subordinate who was waiting outside hurried over and whispered something into Charles’ ears. His face immediately became ugly.

Charles glanced at Stella and sounded hesitant, but in the end he said abruptly, “I have some matter to attend to, so I need to go now. You can remain here and accompany her.”

After saying that, Charles left in big strides.

When he reached the door, he turned around and stole a glance before giving his subordinate an instruction, “Keep an eye on them.”

Stella continued to stand rooted to the spot as she looked like she was in a trance, her eyes glued to the photograph on the tombstone.

Only after some time did William’s voice break the silence, “Ms. Radomil.”

Stella returned to her senses, “Mr. William.”

William flashed a smile as he nodded in her direction, his eyes continued to fix themselves on the tombstone, his thoughts unfathomable. After some time, he continued, “Ms. Radomil, you resemble your mother a lot.”

Stella replied, “I can’t remember her face anymore. Every time I see the photos, memories would come back to me little by little, but everything is like a dream, fleeting and temporary.”

Because of this, every time she laid eyes on her mother’s photos, for her she was only looking at a stranger’s face.

William continued, “You will remember her one day.”

Stella drooped her head and then she regained her composure and raised her head again, “Mr. William, are you doing visiting your old friend?”

“I am done. Our meeting is such a coincidence today. If I know that Mrs. Steward’s grave is in this place too, I would have come sooner.”

Stella simply laughed, “You don’t have to trouble yourself. We still can’t be fully sure who is actually buried here.”

Upon hearing that, William simply glanced inquisitively at her but he said nothing.

He then said, “Shall we leave now, Ms. Radomil?”
