Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 95

Stella had never expected that one day, Clarence, the wretched man, would boil the water and wash her hair for her.

This didn’t match his identity only but also it was abnormally weird.

Stella felt as if she was drinking before stepping to the scaffold.

It was way too creepy.

She said, “Mr. Conrad, how about let me do it myself?”

Clarence answered coldly, “Shush.”

Stella hummed and didn’t speak anymore.

The warm water was poured above her head, dropping into the garden.

Although Stella couldn’t see it, she could guess the scene was quite happy and romantic.

Of course, the premise was that the wretched man wasn’t doing it with a cold look.

Besides that, the whole procedure was smooth and quiet. She faintly had an illusion that they were a normal couple who loved each other.

As soon as she thought about it, Stella was startled. Subconsciously, she dodged.

Clarence pressed her shoulder with another hand. He asked unhappily, “Why are you moving? Haven’t you said the water temperature is fine?”

Stella realized that his words couldn’t stop her from imagining the wonderful illusion in her mind.

After a moment of silence, she answered, “I was bitten by the mosquitoes.”

“I didn’t expect that not only men like you, but also mosquitoes are attracted by you.”

Upon hearing his words, Stella was in the mood to argue. She retorted, “Since men like me so much, why don’t you like me, Mr. Conrad?”

Clarence didn’t answer.

In fact, as soon as she asked, Stella regretted it.

Without thinking, she knew what kind of mockery she would hear from this wretched man.

However, right then, the lights in the yard were on suddenly.

With a few claps, the electricity was back in supply for all the electronic devices and the street lamps.

It was good timing, wasn’t it?

Stella closed her eyes for a moment under the bright lights. Occasionally, she looked into the man’s darkened and calm eyes. She immediately looked away. Wrapping her hair with a dry towel, she said, “Mr. Conrad, thanks a lot. I’m going upstairs now.”

After entering her room, Stella quickly locked the door from the inside, panting.

It was so close! If Clarence spoke out his sarcastic words, she might not be able to fall asleep tonight because of the anger again.

Stella walked into the bathroom. When her hair was half-dried, she sneezed.

In the evening, lying on the bed, Stella looked out of the window peacefully. Things that happened earlier today kept flashing through her mind.

She couldn’t blame herself, because Clarence was way too abnormal.

She could always hear a voice in her mind asking her from time to time, “Is it possible that he likes you?”

Otherwise, she couldn’t explain that weirdness by the normal logic.

At midnight, Stella still hadn’t figured out anything. She yawned and fell asleep.

...

Stella slept soundly. She didn’t wake up slowly when hearing someone knocking at her door.

She sat up, only to find she was dizzy and had a stuffy nose.

Stella sat for a short while before getting up and opening the door.

Clarence was standing at the door. Leaning against the wall, he cast her a glance, “I didn’t expect that you are so vindictive.”

“Come again?”

“I said you ate a lot yesterday. Today you are not eating, are you?”
