Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 386

Stella stared at her and said word by word, “Without your preparation for this big show beforehand, how would there be an opportunity for me to perform myself?”

Phoebe’s expression changed instantly. Then, she sneered, “Don’t be complacent too early.”

“I’m not complacent at all. After all, what I’m doing now can’t be compared to what you’ve done.” Stella said indifferently, “Actually, I have always wanted to ask you something, but I feel that I’m asking knowingly. However, since we’ve already come to this point, I’ll just ask you casually, I hope that you won’t mind.”

Phoebe crossed her arms around her chest and looked indifferent, as if she wanted to see what Stella would say.

Stella said, “You are the one who told Annie about my pregnancy, aren’t you?”

Phoebe responded calmly, “According to what you’ve said, I guess you are determined that it was me who told her. So, no matter what I say, you will take it as me quibbling. However, I’m quite curious about one thing. Should we be ashamed about things like getting pregnant? It had been so long, but you actually come and question me about this now.”

“Pregnancy is indeed not a shameful thing, but sometimes, people are just too dark and sinful inside them. Hence, they are afraid to do things under the sun.”

Stella left this sentence and turned around. She directly entered the room.

Phoebe took a deep breath, and her expression was as cold as she could be.

She went back to her room and saw that her phone was vibrating. It was a call from an unfamiliar number.

Phoebe hung up irritably. After a while, the person called again.

She picked up the call and Modesty’s voice came into her ears, “Ms. Steward, I am Modesty.”

“What’s up?”

Modesty said cautiously, “I know you hate Stella too, so I…”

Phoebe said indifferently, “You know?”

A sudden question made Modesty paused for a while. After a few seconds, she continued, “Before that in SG, although you didn’t say it out, but I could feel it. But don’t get me wrong, I’m not using this to threaten you. I have something in hand, and I think that you will be interested about it.”

“Oh?” Phoebe sat on the sofa, “Maybe you have misunderstood me, I don’t hate Stella a lot. Besides, she hasn’t affected any of my interests. Hence, there is no reason for me to hate her. Are you trying to hurt her under the guise of me?”

Modesty bit her lips, “It’s like that, Ms. Steward. I just think that someone like Stella doesn’t deserve all of this at all. She doesn’t deserve to be loved by Mr. Conrad, nor does she deserve to live in the Steward family’s house, let alone…”

Phoebe continued her words, “Let alone being worthy to win the designer competition?”

Modesty did not answer. It was no doubt that she was acquiescing.

Phoebe spoke casually, “But the one who won the championship is you, isn’t it? It seems that she really doesn’t deserve it and she doesn’t have that strength and ability to win.”

“I’ll let you listen to a recording, and you’ll understand everything.”

At the other end of the line, after a subtle noise, there came the conversion between Louis and Stella when they were at the hotel.

After listening to it, Phoebe did not give any reaction.

Modesty’s voice couldn’t help but get agitated a little, “The special show for the brand of the Fashion Week was originally belonged to the champion of the competition, but Louis deliberately gave her the opportunity. Doesn’t you feel unfair?”

Phoebe said, “It’s a competition, whoever takes it seriously will be the one who loses.”

She said, “Thank you, Ms. Steward, for reminding me this. I know what to do.”

Hearing the hung-up tone coming from the other end of the line, Phoebe put down the phone and stared at the screen. Then, the corner of her lips lifted.

She wanted to see how long Stella could be complacent.

Maybe she didn’t have to make a move at all, Stella would have been punished by her own doings.

On the other side…

After hanging up the phone, Modesty was at a loss. She didn’t know how to contact the Conrad family’s people.

Moreover, when she exposed that Stella was kept by people from the Conrad family, she was already at feud with them.

Although she was acquitted, Adolph had been watched by them since then, and if she delivered herself to their door, she may be questioned by them about the reason of why she did this.

Modesty thought for a long time. She took the recorder and prepared several copies of the recording. She put into a box and went to another place. She took out a phone number that Adolph gave to her before and called a courier to send this to the Conrad family. She wrote on the box that it must be opened personally by Dempsey.

After she finished doing this, Modesty breathed a sigh of relief. She was just about to take a taxi home when she received a phone call.

Soon, Arthur’s dissatisfied voice came from the phone, “I’ve been waiting for you all night, when are you coming?”

Modesty frowned in disgust and hung up directly. She blacklisted the number.

After thinking for a while, she called Adolph and her family again, but there was still no one answering the call.
