Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 446

At six o’clock in the evening, a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the hotel.

Clarence got off, walked around to the other side, pulled the door of the car open, and reached out to the woman sitting inside, slightly raising his eyebrows.   

Stella cured up her lips slightly. Putting her hand in his palm, she got off while holding the hemline of her dress.

She was wearing a light purple dress tonight, which made her skin look more fair and smooth. On her neck, there was a dedicated necklace and the pendant was the shape of a pocket watch.

After Stella stood next to Clarence, the man gave her his harm.

She took it gently.

Then they walked into the hotel together.

A lot of guests had witnessed the scene, starting to discuss with each other.

“Are they Mr. Conrad and his ex... ex-girlfriend?”

“I heard that she’s good-looking. This is the first time I have met her. She’s prettier than the movie stars.”

“It seemed they are a good match. Why did they divorce?”

“Of course for those same old stories - back then, she managed to marry into the Conrad family by her fake pregnancy. Everyone has known about it. They must divorce for this reason as well.”

“I don’t agree. If so, why did Mr. Conrad keep a high profile when chasing after her earlier?”

“You are so ignorant. Mr. Conrad’s ex-wife had legendary life experiences. I heard that she was sold into Twilight Club before.”The man who was speaking lowered his voice, “It seemed she was sold by her father. Then she met Mr. Conrad. Then things happened between a man and a woman happened between them. After one night, she went to the Conrad family.”

“But, you still didn’t answer why Mr. Conrad started chasing after her again.”

The man continued, “Don’t worry. I haven’t finished yet. Do you remember last year Mr. Conrad and Phoebe Steward called off their engagement? It’s said that the Steward family disdains him as he’s an illegitimate son and doesn’t deserve the daughter of their family, so they canceled the engagement with him.”

Right then, a voice suddenly was heard, “Then?”

“Then, coincidentally, Mr. Conrad’s ex-wife went to find Charles Steward with some keepsake, declaiming that he was Charles Steward’s biological daughter who has missed for many years. Although Charles Steward didn’t believe her, she had his latest wife’s relic as well as with Mr. Thomas’s guarantee. Hence, Charles Steward took her in the Stewards’ Mansion for some reason.”

The man paused and then continued, “Hence, if his ex-wife was the real daughter of the Steward family, how couldn’t Mr. Conrad be interested? As long as he could marry her, Steward Group would fall into his hands, wouldn’t it? It had to say that Mr. Conrad does have a long-term vision. He has easily obtained Steward Group.”

After he finished speaking, he found guests around him had kept silent for a long time. Others who were gathering around him took a few steps back and distanced themselves from him. The atmosphere fell into a dead silence.

The man turned around stiffly, seeing a face with a faint smile.

Vincent said slowly, “That’s a good story.”

“Hi, Mr... Mr. James.”

“If Clarence knew you’ve made such an encouraging story for him, he might also applause for it as well.”

The man’s expression was stiffened, “I... I also heard it from others. It’s not made by me. I didn’t mean to slander Mr. Conrad in private. I was just...”

Donald approached him and said friendly, “Spreading rumors can make you be sentenced to a maximum of three years. If you need my help, I'll give you a discount.”

The man couldn’t utter a word.

In the banquet hall.

After Stella and Clarence arrived, they saw Charles talking to Cameron. They went over and greeted them, “Good evening, Mr. Thomas. Good evening, Mr. Steward.”

Cameron nodded with a smile. When looking over at Clarence, he didn’t seem to be quite happy, “Hi, Mr. Conrad. You are here as well.”

Clarence was puzzled, wondering if he shouldn’t have been here.
