Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 385

Sherry sat on the couch to consider Daniel’s suggestion for quite some time. She looked down the ground and sat still.

Daniel was standing in front of her. He thought Sherry fell asleep at some point.

Daniel said carefully, “Maybe…you can try putting that bat down. It’s quite scary.”

Sherry held onto the bat even tighter after hearing Daniel’s suggestion.

Daniel cleared his throat and took a step back.

After a while, Sherry asked, “The enemy you were saying. Are you talking about Charles?”

Daniel nodded.

Sherry questioned, “Phoebe and you…”

Daniel explained, “It was just a show. I have my reason to get close to her. She knew it, and she was using me as well.”

Sherry asked after a while, “A show… Just like what we’re doing?”

“It’s not the same thing,” Daniel said, “We are doing this for justice. It’s different.”

Sherry replied, “I see.”

After a few minutes, Daniel asked, “So, what do you think about my suggestion?”

Sherry wanted to confirm with Daniel, “Are you sure that they won’t harm Stella if I agreed to put on an act with you?”

“At least they couldn’t find a reason from me to threaten her. I’ll think of something if they try to find a reason from other aspects.”

Sherry frowned, “Who…are you? No, I meant, why did you come here?”

Daniel smiled, “I’ll tell you after our ‘act’.”

When Stella got back to the Steward manor, she felt like the manor was covering in a depressing aura. All the maids avoided her, just like how they treated her when she first arrived in the manor.

When Stella walked into the living room, a maid came over, “Ms. Radomil, Mr. Steward asked for you in his study room.”

The maid quickly left Stella after she finished her sentence. She didn’t even wait for Stella to answer.

Stella stood still for a few seconds, then headed to Charles’ study room.

Stella knocked on the door and asked, “Mr. Steward, is there anything I can help you with?”

Charles raised his head from the pile of documents in front of him, “Sit.”

Stella pouted and sat in front of Charles.

Charles pushed a document to Stella. Stella took a glance and saw it was a Bill of Indictment accusing Phoebe.

Stella smiled, “This is?”

Charles didn’t answer her question, but instead, he said, “I knew you had conflicts with Phoebe because of Clarence, but no matter what, it’s an internal matter between the Steward family. You shouldn’t make it a big deal.”

Stella said, “I don’t understand what you’re saying, Mr. Steward. I wasn’t the one who got accused in that Bill of Indictment. What does it have to do with me?”

“You are the reason why these started. You are going to clarify that the accusations in the Bill of Indictment are false. That should make the bill of indictment a useless piece of paper.”

Stella now knew what Charles wanted. In fact, it was easy for Charles to handle a person like Bernice. However, Stella was involved in the case.
