Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 428

When Stella and Clarence came back, the staff of the painting exhibition had sent the painting to the apartment. And Nathan’s subordinate also had sent many of Stella’s clothes here.

Looking at the wardrobe that was full of her clothes, Stella turned around in disbelief, “I will only live here for several days. It’s so ridiculous to bring many clothes here.”

Clarence took a glance at her, “Many? I think it’s not enough.”

Stella, “…”

Was he insane?

Clarence sat onto the sofa and said slowly, “Will you just live here for several days? Will you not come here again?”

Stella was a bit bewildered by his question. She answered after a short while of silence, “N…Nope.”

“Then is there any other problem?”

Stella pouted. She knew that she would never persuade him.

Stella walked into the kitchen and put the things she bought in the supermarket into the refrigerator one by one.

The empty refrigerator was soon filled with food materials.

It made people feel like home.

Stella was a bit stunned when realizing this, but she uncontrollably curled her lips into a smile.

It looked warm.

Right at this moment, Clarence suddenly walked over and wrapped her waist from behind. He put his chin on her shoulder and asked, “Can you not come back to the Steward family and just live here?”

Stella moved her lips and said, “But I haven’t…” Find out anything.

“You’ve done will. You’ve made great contribution to the crisis that the Steward Group is facing now.”

“Really?”

Why did she feel it implausible?

Clarence slightly raised his brows, “Of course. Will I get any advantage by lying to you?”

Stella said, “Ask your conscientiousness first. Can you still repeat the words?”

Clarence, “…”

Stella pondered for a while. The anniversary of the Steward Group was coming and she had a foreboding that there would be a big event.

Moreover, since she had got a part of the Stewards Group’s property from Charles. Therefore, her journey to the Steward family was not in vain.

As for Charles’ study, she couldn’t get into it no matter how hard she tried. Before the study had a luck, and now Phoebe and Charles was waiting for her in an attempt to get something on her.

Now that she couldn’t get into the study, nor could she find out any useful things, it would be meaningless for her to stay there anymore.

After a short while, Stella said, “I have to come back to deal with a thing. When that matter is solved, I will move out from the Steward family.”

Clarence knitted his brows with dissatisfaction, “What’s it?”

Stella felt breathless in his tight embrace. She took away his hands and said, “Charles promised me that he will let Phoebe apologize to Channing. But now Charles is not here and Phoebe will definitely renege on it. Therefore, I have to wait until Charles comes back.”

Clarence curled his finger and flipped Stella’s forehead, “You only attach great importance to these trivial matters?”

“Why is it trivial? Channing is my brother. Of course I should protect him.”

“When will you protect me?”

Stella asked, “Do you need my protection?”

Clarence replied righteously, “I can’t fall asleep when I sleep alone at night and I need your company.”

Stella gritted her teeth and picked up the kitchen knife aside.”

Clarence slightly curled his thin lips into a smile. He lowered his head and quickly landed a kiss on her cheek and then left the kitchen in strides.

Stella stayed in the kitchen and cooked several dishes.

During that period, Clarence asked her whether she needed his help or not, but was directly driven out of the kitchen by Stella.

Stella thought that she herself could handle it as it was simply a meal for two persons.

When they finished the dinner, it was already eight o’clock.

Stella hadn’t eaten this much for a long time and she was a bit full. After washing the dishes, she walked out of the kitchen, “Clarence, I want to go downstairs to have a walk. Would you like to come with me?”

Clarence took a glance at the clock and said, “I have an audio conference five minutes later. You can go downstairs first. I will come to find you when it’s finished.”

“Okay.”

When Stella was about to leave the house, Clarence walked over with a coat, “It’s chilling in the evening. Take a coat with you.”

Stella took the coat from him, “I see. I will go first.”

Although Stella had been here for several times, she had never walked around in the community, so the surroundings were quite strange to her.

After walking for several minutes, Stella saw an artificial lake in the frond and many parents were playing with their children by the roadside.

Stella walked over, leaned against the handrail beside the lake and closed her eyes.

The night breezes gently blew over her face, carrying the torridity of the summer.

After staying by the lake for about half an hour, Stella thought that she had almost digested what she ate tonight. Seeing that Clarence still hadn’t come to find her, she guessed that he must be still busy with his walk and prepared to come back.

When she was about to reach the downstairs of Clarence’s apartment, Stella suddenly saw a familiar figure. She called his name with uncertainty, “Chan?”

The person paused and then slowly turned around.

Stella quickened her pace as she walked over, “It’s really you. Why are you here?”

Channing pressed his thin lips together, “I come here to find someone.”

“Find someone? To find Clarence?”

Channing could only nod his head.

Stella said, “Why didn’t you tell us in advance? If we have known that you will come, we would have waited for you for the dinner.”

Channing replied, “I walked past here and decided to visit him on the spur of the moment.”

Stella nodded her head and said, “Why do you find him?”

Channing was a person who wasn’t good at lying. Fearing that Stella would sense something if they continue this topic, he didn’t reply the question.

Stella had already felt it strange just now. Seeing that Channing didn’t answer her question, she felt it more doubtful.

She couldn’t figure out why Channing came to find Clarence. Moreover, he paid a special visit here as his school was so far away from this community and therefore he wouldn’t walk past here.

She felt it fishy when thinking over it.

“You…”

When Stella wanted to ask some more questions, a voice sounded from behind, “He comes here for the matter related to Winnie.”

Stella turned around and saw Clarence standing not far away from them.

Clarence walked over in strides and looked towards Channing, “I’ve sent you the address. You can find her by yourself.”

Channing spoke after a long while, “Okay.”

He said after a short while of silence, “I have to deal with something now. So I have to go first.”

Stella nodded her head, “Okay.”

After Channing’s leaving, Stella looked towards Clarence with inquiry, “Why does he want to find Winnie?”

Clarence looked down at her, “What do you think?”

Oh my, Channing took action so quickly. And he even came to Winnie’s home!

Stella continued, “He especially came to find you simply for this matter.”

Clarence put one hand in his pocket and asked, “Don’t you know your brother well? Couldn’t you see that he was embarrassed? Coming to find me is just his excuse.”

Stella murmured to herself, “I knew that he was embarrassed, so I didn’t ask him too many question just now.”

Clarence held up her hand with the other hand, “All right. Do you want to continue to walk around? If you don’t want to, we will come home.”

“Oh wait, Clarence, I have a question.”

“What’s it?”

“Do you think that Winnie will fall in love with a man who’s younger than her?”

Clarence raised his brows, “Younger?”

Stella glared at him, “Yep, he’s younger than her!”

What was in this wretched man’s mind?

Clarence curled his lips into a smile, “I’m not clear of it. I can ask her later.”

“Oh no, no need. Won’t it be exposed if you ask her?”
