Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 603

Archer thought for a while, and said seriously, “You now have no choice but to trust me. Because I am the only one that can cure him.”

Hearing the words, Stella bit her lips gently, and her hand on the crib was tightly clenched.

“I know that you can hardly accept everything that has happened recently at this moment. But now you should already know that all these things are manipulated by someone behind all of this, including the nutrition needles. We believe that they are responsible for that.”

Archer continued, “If we want to hurt this child, why bother to get him to Riverside? We can leave him to you in City N.”

“I think the reason you bring us here is that you can threaten Clarence with his child in your hand, am I right?”

Archer was taken aback, and suddenly realized, “Damn, we could have thought about this strategy earlier!”

Stella got speechless, “...”

Archer raised his hand, “I was just joking, joking, but you can think carefully about my words and decide whether it makes sense.”

Stella looked at him, “I can trust you, but I have a problem.”

“I am listening...”

“Do you have anything to do with Clarence?”

Archer was taken aback for a moment. He was a little surprised, probably because he didn't expect her to ask that way.

Stella slowly said, “As Darnell said, the whole thing is someone’s frame against you. So why would they shift the blame to you? Why do they choose Riverside, a city that is thousands of miles away from City N?”

“Well...”

“As long as you can answer this question for me, I can trust you and keep the child here.”

Archer coughed and answered with a serious face, “I have not figured out this question yet. Maybe I am so good that some people are simply jealous of me.”

Stella looked away speechlessly, “I'm sleepy, and now you can go out.”

Archer hurriedly said, “Come on, you guys are really making a lot of trouble now. If you don't agree, I will be scolded. I will be in a bad mood when I am being scolded. In that case, I may not have the energy to give decent medical treatment to the little fellows.”

Stella didn’t change her mind.

Just as Archer was thinking about what else he can do, the door of the lounge was pushed open again, and Darnell walked in.

Archer got up immediately.

Darnell glanced at him, “How can you fail such an easy job?”

“I'm not good at dealing with women. Besides, you are the one assigned me here.”

After saying this, Archer slipped away immediately.

Darnell said, “The question you had just asked, I can answer you. However, I also have one condition.”

Stella looked at him but didn't speak for a moment. She was really considering the bargain.

Darnell did not give her the chance to consider, and continued, “Just swear on your son, you can't say a word about what I told you tonight. Otherwise, his illness will never be cured.”

Stella frowned, “You...”

Darnell interrupted her, “This is just the consequence of your failure to keep your promise. You keep this secret and nothing will happen.”

Stella said coldly, “Why should I make such a boring promise to you? No matter what the secret is, I will not swear on my child for such bargain.”

Darnell didn't expect her to say that, looking surprised with his eyebrows lifted.

After a while, he said, “It was that thing that happened twenty years ago. As for how much truth Clarence can find out, it is his business and has nothing to do with me.”

Stella was stunned, “Twenty years ago, then you...”

“I have finished what I need to say, you make your own choice.”

After Darnell finished speaking, he didn't stay any longer. He left the lounge without looking back.

Stella looked at the closed door and let out a long sigh.

She didn't expect that Riverside would be involved in the famous incident twenty years ago.
