Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 70

Clarence stood up and said in a flat tone, “I will give you three days to consider about this. You can tell me what else you want. If you miss this opportunity, you will not be able to get what you want again.”

He stopped when he walked to the door and said slowly, “If you can make your decision earlier, you brother would not have given up his promising future for only one million.”

Stella bit her lower lip tightly with a pair of red-rimmed eyes. She was trying so hard to suppress the impulse to shed tears.

After Clarence’s leaving, Stella pulled out the infusion needle on the back of her hand.

She walked towards the entrance of the hospital while calling Sherry. She learned from Sherry that Channing had resigned from the convenience store and that Channing was nowhere to be found.

When Sherry met with Stella, she was startled by Stella’s pale face and red-rimmed eyes. She asked, “Stella, what’s wrong with you?”

Stella shook her head, “Let’s find Chan first.”

When it was getting dark, they finally got in touch with Channing. Stella asked in a calm voice, “Chan, where are you now?”

“I’m having a military training.”

“Give me your address.”

Channing, who was at the other end of the phone, was silent for a while, “The school doesn’t allow outsiders to come in during the military training.”

“Give me the contact method of your teacher or military instructor. I will have a talk with them.”

Channing was muted.

Stella felt extremely tired. She repeated the question, “Chan, where are you?”

Actually, Channing found a job in the vicinity of University A. He thought that if Stella came to the university to find him later, he could lie to her that he was having a part-time job here and he thought that Stella wouldn’t doubt it.

But he hadn’t expected that Stella would find out the truth so soon.

After a long while, Channing replied, “Stay there. I will go to find you.”

While waiting for Channing, Sherry learned from Stella about the whole thing and she didn’t know how to console her at the moment.

Sherry knew that Jeffrey was a despicable person. Stella and Channing had been supporting each other since childhood and Sherry was clear that Channing was the most important person for Stella. Now Channing gave up his promising future and sold his admission letter to University A to the other person, no wonder that Stella would be so anxious and angry.

Half an hour later, Channing arrived at Stella’s house.

Thinking that it would not be suitable for her to stay here under such circumstance, Sherry found an excuse, saying that she had to go out to buy something, and left.

Stella took out the bank card that Channing gave her before and put it on the table, “Is it because of Jeffrey?”

Stella suspected it was because of her father’s debt because Channing happened to give the card to her after Adolph came here to ask her to pay the debt.

Channing just stood on the spot. He didn’t ask Stella how she knew about this and simply said, “I’m afraid that they will not let go of us easily. They have no moral bottom lines and they can do everything to achieve their goals. I think that even if there’s an emergency, you may protect yourself with the money in your card.”

“Chan…”

Channing said in a relaxed tone, “It’s good that you didn’t use the money to pay Jeffrey’s debt. I’ve told you that I will support your life. Although there’s not too much money in the card, it can support your life for a period of time. Later, I will…”

Stella interrupted him, “Chan, you gave up the admission letter to University A, do you know what it means to you?

Channing paused and then replied, “You also gave up the opportunity to study in Paris, didn’t you?”

“I gave up the chance before and I know deep down what I’ve missed, so I don’t want you to regret it.”

“I won’t regret it. Even if I can’t study in the university, I can still…”

“You’re just 18 years old. What do you want to do if you don’t go to the university?” Stella fixed her eyes on the card in front of her, “There’s no point to return this card to that person now, right?”

Channing nodded his head.

One million was nothing in the eyes of those rich people. But for them, the deal had been closed and Channing wouldn’t have the chance to regret it.

Stella said, “I will solve this. Chan, wait for my news.”
