Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again

When Stella was back home, Sherry finished cleaning the kitchen and Daniel was gone.

The noise from the door attracted Sherry’s attention. She immediately looked toward the door being ready to ask questions, only to find that Stella was covered by a male coat, looking not in very good conditions.

Well, no need to ask.

Seeing the scene, Winnie raised her eyebrows and got up holding her handbag, “Well, I should go now. Have an early night.”

Stella pulled herself together, “Clarence has left, so how are you going to go home?”

“Take a cab.” Winnie put on her coat with a cap and then wore a mask. She covered herself completely with clothes and then winked at Stella, “Will I be recognized this way?”

Stella shook her head.

Winnie smiled, “That’s fine. I gotta go, bye.”

Shery saw her off at the door, “Hey, have a safe trip. Let me know when you are home.”

“Ok.”

After Winnie left, Channing turned to Stella, “You ….”

Stella coughed, “I go to the bathroom.”

She ran away as soon as she finished.

Channing didn’t move but frowned looking at her back.

Sherry came to him and whispered, “Chan, don’t ask her. She knows what she is doing.”

Channing was in silence for a few seconds and then turned to Sherry, “It’s late. I gotta go.”

“Fine, go home now.”
