Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 353

At 3pm, Stella finished the work in her hand. She looked at the time and ensured that there was nothing else going on in the studio, she grabbed her things and prepared to go out.

Yesterday, she had been there once. Hence, she already knew where Amanda lived and she could reach her doorstep without any problem.

Even if they left, she could still ask the neighbors around the area to get some clue.

But when Stella reached the door, a familiar figure appeared in front of her.

The person smiled at her and seemed a little embarrassed.

Stella paused for a few seconds and then took the initiative to greet her, “Miss Jason.”

Rebecca spoke with a bitter smile on her face, “Don’t… be so polite. Now, the Jason family is already in such a bad situation, I’m no longer a missy.”

Stella looked at the stroller in front of her. She took two steps back and said, “Come in first.”

Stella wasn’t sure if it was because Rebecca was with the child, Rebecca was dressed in simple and plain clothes, not even a decent piece of jewelry was found on her. Now, Rebecca had completely lost the aura of a wealthy family’s daughter.

For the whole time, Rebecca seemed to be very uneasy. Only when she finished a cup of water, then she felt a little relaxed.

Stella said, “Miss…”

Subconsciously, she wanted to call her Miss Jason, but then she remembered that what Rebecca had just said. Hence, the words were not spoken out and for that instance, she didn’t know how to address her.

Rebecca put down her cup and said to her, “If you don’t mind, you can just call me Rebecca.”

Stella nodded gently, “Rebecca.”

After a paused, she continued, “Rebecca, why did you come and see me today? Is there something wrong?”

When Stella asked about Rebecca’s intention, a trace of embarrassment was shown on Rebecca’s face. After a while, she said, “Actually, I should have come long ago. It’s just that there are too many things to deal at home, and my child is still so young that I really can’t leave him alone. So, it took me a long time before I could come to see you. Today, I came because I wanted to… apologize to you.”

Stella was a little confused, “Apologize to me?”

Rebecca seemed to be a little nervous. She took a deep breath before she continued, “I have always had prejudice against you, and I’ve been talking bad things about you behind your back.”

When Stella heard this, she just smiled and said, “It’s okay. After all, when I first married into the Conrad family, it was really… not very honorable. It’s normal for you to have prejudice against me.”

“No.” Rebecca said, “Except for this, I… I also…”

Rebecca could not continue her words anymore.

Stella saw her difficulty and said, “Rebecca, in fact, the past is already in the past. We should all look forward.”

Rebecca shook her head, “Although things have passed, but I must say it out. I am haunted by this incident every day, and I often have nightmares at night. I’m always worried and afraid…”

Halfway through, she laid her eyes on the sleeping child in the stroller.

“As a mother, I have the responsibility and obligation to bear the consequences of those bad things that I’ve done in the past.” Rebecca closed her eyes and continued, “Do you still remember that you once fell into the water at the Conrad family’s swimming pool?”
