Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 485

In the afternoon, Stella was about to go home when Clarence called.

She answered the call and heard the man’s booming low voice, “You’re not at home?”

Stella mumbled a yes and said, “I can’t stand to be stuck there forever, so I have come to my workshop. I’m going back now though.”

Clarence replied, “No problem. I have things to attend to later, so I will be late coming back. You can rest early.”

“Did something happen at the company?”

“No, it’s not something important. I will tell you when I am back.”

“Got it.”

After hanging up the phone, Sherry poked her head into the office, “Stella, are you not leaving yet?”

Stella got up, “Let’s go.”

Sherry was under road space rationing today, and she had come to work by hailing a taxi. Stella would send her back today.

While on the way, Sherry began, “Your Mr. Conrad didn’t urge you to back as soon as you can?”

Stella smiled, “He has something to attend to so he’ll be late coming home.”

“Speaking of which, although that bastard has a lot of leisurely time at times, but he will still be busy sometimes, right? However, you can catch your breath when he’s busy, or else he will cling on to you like there’s no tomorrow.”

Upon hearing this sentence, Stella suddenly felt surreal. If they had this conversation a year ago, this would definitely sound like a huge joke.

Who could have thought that so many things would go down in just a single year.

Not long after, the car arrived at the destination set by their GPS.

Stella rolled down the car window, “Did we arrive at the right place?”

Sherry answered, “Yes, then I’ll take my leave now. You take care on your way back.”

“Alright.”

When Sherry disappeared from her sight, Stella retrieved her gaze and gunned the engine.

After returning to their condominium, she immediately heard a baby crying after stepping out of the elevator.

Stella’s steps were fuddled because this was the first time she heard the sound of a baby in all the time she had been staying here.

She pulled herself back to her senses and just as she was about to enter her unit, the doors of the elevator opened again and a figure appeared.

Stella froze, “Chan? It’s so late now. Why are you here?”

Channing was there standing tall, and he answered nonchalantly, “I am here to get a free meal.”

Stella used to invite Channing to come over to have a meal together if he was free, but every time she asked him, she was rejected.

Therefore, it was a pleasant surprise to see him here now.

However, after giving it some thought, Stella thought that Channing wouldn’t feel very great about what had happened lately.

He must be here to see her because of those things.

Stella walked to her door and entered the password, “Come in.”

Channing followed from behind, and he glanced at the unit next door before entering.

Stella changed her shoes and headed to the kitchen, “What do you want to eat today?”

“Anything will be fine.”

Channing was not as selective as Clarence. Stella checked her fridge and decided to make something out of the available ingredients.

When she was cooking, Channing appeared at the entrance of the kitchen, “Is Clarence not here?”

Stella answered while chopping some vegetables, “He has something to do. He will come back later.”

Channing frowned, “Something to do? What kind of thing?”

“I don’t know. Never asked him.”

Channing protested, “Why didn’t you ask him? What if he’s lying to you?”

Stella turned around to look at him, “If he plans to lie to me, there would be no difference even if I asked, you know. He could still make up some excuse.”

“Are you really not afraid that he would hook up with…”

Channing pursed his lips. In the end, he couldn’t bring himself to finish the sentence.

Stella simply answered, “He won’t.”
