Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 399

There came the fragrance of rice and dishes from inside the house.

Hearing the footsteps at the door, Dolores walked out of the house, “Stella, Clare, take a seat first. The meal will be ready soon.”

Stella said, “Ms. Anderson, let me help you.”

After finishing the words, she took of her coat, handed it to Clarence and then walked into the kitchen.

Clarence took the coat from her and raised his brows.

Dolores said, “You don’t need to help me. I will finish it soon.”

“You must have gone to bed at this point of time in usual times. It’s so late now, yet we still come to bother you.”

“It’s not a big deal. I live here alone and no one can talk to me in usual times. I’m so happy that you can visit me.”

“Ms. Anderson, are you living here alone?”

Dolores replied as if she hadn’t noticed anything weird, “Yeah, what’s the matter?”

Stella smiled and shook her head, “Nothing. It’s just that I remember Ms. Beckham told me she wanted to live with you, so I think you two…”

“Evelyn?” Dolores took out some chopsticks while saying, “You also know that Evelyn can’t bear boring life. This place is too quiet for her. She bought a package tour for the olds and went to travel after living here for a period. She’s now having a good time.”

Stella didn’t ask any question when she heard this.

As expected, she had thought too much.

After the meal, Dolores said, “It’s late now. I’ve cleaned the room. You two shall go upstairs and have a rest.”

As she had had a sleep on the way here, Stella was sleepless now. She gathered the plates and bowls, “Ms. Anderson, you may go to bed now. I will wash these.”

“Okay.”

Dolores came back to her bedroom after finishing the words.

Stella gathered the dishes and took them to the kitchen. When she prepared to wash the dishes, the bowl in her hand was snatched.

Clarence said, “Go to the sofa. I will wash it.”

Stella didn’t want to dampen her mood and prayed for these dishes in her heart.

She then walked out of the kitchen and sat on the sofa. In five minutes, she heard the breaking sounds of two dishes.

One was from a plate and the other was from a spoon.

Stella had been accustomed to it and she didn’t even lift her head.

Twenty minutes later, Clarence finally walked out of the kitchen with a gloomy face.

Stella complimented him sincerely, “It’s good. At least you just broke one plate and a spoon today.”

“Shut up.”

Stella uncontrollably curled her lips into her smile, feeling her mood improved.

Clarence took off his necktie with one hand, “I will go to take a shower.”

Only then did Stella realize that his shirt was half wet.

He was so awesome that he could even get himself messy while washing the dishes.

“Wait…” Stella hurriedly stopped him, “Is there only one room left?”

Clarence took several steps and turned around to look at her, “Or else?”

Stella couldn’t help but pout. She had expected this.

When Clarence went upstairs, Stella was still sitting on the sofa with her arms around her knees. She was looking out of the windows, seeming to be pondering something.

Right at this moment, the door of a bedroom was pushed opened and Dolores walked out of the room, “Oh, you haven’t slept yet.”

Stella pulled herself together, “Ms. Anderson.”

Dolores sat beside her, “Is your work arduous recently? You’ve lost so much weight.”

Stella smiled, “It’s the summer so I need to lose my weight.”

“Nonsense. You’re already so slim, is it necessary for you to lose weight?”

Stella asked, “Ms. Anderson, you live here alone. Are you accustomed to it?”

Dolores replied in a flat tone, “I’ve been living alone for a long time. It’s the same no matter in where I’m living. I’ve accustomed to it.”

This made sense.
