Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 433

When Stella came back to the Stewards’ Mansion at night, Charles was in his study.

She walked to the study and then knocked on the door. Then there came Charles’ voice, “Come in.”

Charles asked whens seeing Stella, “What’s wrong. Are you dissatisfied with Phoebe’s apology today?”

Stella said, “Ms. Steward didn’t show up. How can I be satisfied or dissatisfied with it?”

Charles narrowed his eyes when he heard the words. Apparently, he had known what happened today.

Stella continued, “But Mr. Steward, please rest assured. I come to find you for the other matter.”

Charles asked, “What’s it?”

“I plan to move out of the Stewards’ Mansion.”

Charles didn’t expect that she would suddenly mention this. He knitted his brows, seeming to be pondering something.

Stella continued in a composed voice, “I’ve considered it carefully recently. The Steward’s Mansion is an unfamiliar place for me. Now that I can’t recall what happened in my childhood, it’s unnecessary for me to stay here.”

Charles replied after a short while of silence, “Now that you insist on leaving, I won’t stop you. But the anniversary celebration of the Steward Group will be held several days later. You may leave when the celebration is over.”

Stella knitted her brows and slightly pressed her lips together.

As expected, Charles was plotting something by taking advantage of the anniversary celebration.

Seeing that Stella was silent, Charles asked, “What’s wrong? You’ve lived here for a long time. I’m just asking you to live here for several more days. Do you think that I can do anything to you?”

Stella smiled lightly, “Mr. Steward, you think too much of it. It’s just that I didn’t expect you would invite me to the anniversary celebration.”

Stella replied in a flat tone, “You said you’re Miranda’s daughter. So you should take part in the anniversary celebration of the Steward Group.”

“Now that this is the case, I won’t decline it anymore.”

Stella then came back to her bedroom. She rubbed her cheeks which were with muscle soreness. She had been wearing a fake smile for the whole day, and it was somehow tiresome.

She turned her neck left and right, picked up her clothes and then walked into the bathroom for a shower.

Just as she came out of the bathroom, she saw her phone, which was thrown onto the bed by her before, was glimmering.

Stella lay face down on the bed and answered the call, “Hello?”

Clarence asked, “Have you packaged up your things?”

“Haven’t…” Stella licked her lips and then continued, “Can you wait for several more days?”

“Didn’t we agree on it?”

Stella turned over and said, “Charles didn’t allow me to leave and asked me to wait until the end of the anniversary celebration of the Steward Group.”

Clarence’s voice immediately turned cold, “Did you agree to it?”

“He didn’t give me the chance to refuse it.”

“Package up your things. I will come to pick you up tomorrow.”

Hearing his overbearing voice, Stella said, “No need. It’s just several days.”

“Stella Radomil!” Clarence’s voice became louder, “Do you think that he keeps you for a good thing?”

Stella replied in a gentle voice, “I know that it will not be a good thing. So I have to stay here.”

They were not clear of Charles’ current plan. Therefore, only by staying here could she know about his dynamics.

Moreover, now that Charles had asked her to stay, it meant that he would not let go of her easily. If Clarence forcibly took her away, it would only declare the conflict of the two parties. Charles was like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. If he was cornered, he might do something extremely wicked.

Stella continued, “All right, I will take good care of myself. Didn’t you tell me that since you’re by my side, Charles won’t do anything to me?”

“Do you believe it?”

Stella, “…”

Clarence continued, “It was in the past. Aren’t you clear of the current situation?”

“Well, I see.” Stella thought that his worry made sense, and she didn’t want to continue this topic. “I will bring my important things tomorrow. As for the clothes, it doesn’t matter whether I will take them away or not. Is this okay?”

“Not bad.”
