Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Nathan could only smile bitterly in his heart. ‘Mr. Conrad, can you please take care of your matter first?

Your matter is much more serious than hers!’ Nathan thought to himself.

He had oppressed the news about Stella earlier.

Clarence continued, “If I don’t take care of her, she may die miserably.”

“MR. Conrad…”

“From the charity night party last now, to the disclosure today, I guess the reason why that person did

those things was to ruin Stella’s reputation. If Stella leaves SG, who will get benefits from it?”

Nathan paused. He understood what Clarence meant, “Mr. Conrad, did you mean that it was done by

an employee of SG Jewelry Magazine?”

Clarence, who was leaning against a chair, looked indifferently, “She has a sharp tone and she must

have offended many people. Start the investigation from the most susceptible one.”

“Roger.” Nathan came back after taking several steps, “Then… What about the other matter?”

“Even if you’re so anxious, you can’t solve it for the time being. When it progresses to some extent and

achieves the results she wants, naturally she will deal with it.”

Nathan was startled when he heard the words, “Mr. Conrad, you know who’s the one behind this?”

Clarence looked up. Yet Nathan couldn’t read through his expression.

He replied immediately, “I will go and investigate into the matter related to Mrs. Conrad.”

After Nathan’s departure, the spacious office was overwhelmed by dead silence.

Clarence stood up and stopped in front of the French window. With two hands in his pockets, he looked

at the bustling streets, seeming to be lost in his thoughts.

After a short while, his phone that was placed on the table rang.

Clarence turned around and took a glance at the screen. It was a call from Stella.

But he stood on the spot and didn’t move.

When the ringing sound came to an end, the screen darkened again.

Clarence shifted his gaze. Several minutes later, he turned around and picked up his phone and then

called Stella.

Several seconds later, Stella’s soft voice sounded from the other end of the phone, “Mr. Conrad, are

you busy now?”

Clarence snorted, “Yep.”

It seemed like he was mean to utter other words.

“Then please go on with your own business. I will not bother you.”

When Stella was going to say something else, she heard his impatient voice from the other end of the

phone, “Spill the beans.”

She said in a low voice, “Ms. Anderson called me just now, saying that she was worried about you?”

“Is it necessary to worry about me? Does she think that I will take it too hard, or something else?”

Stella was originally concerned about him well-intentionally, but she hadn’t expected to get such a bad

attitude from him. She was a bit annoyed, “Mr. Conrad, do you have to be so sharp-toned?”

Clarence looked up and happened to see his reflection on the French window. He seemed to

remember something.

After a short while of silence, he said, “I’m sorry. Please ask it again.”

Stella was rendered speechless.

Clarence continued in a calm voice, “I’m doing well and you don’t need to worry about me.”

“Then… If you’re really fine, I suggest you make a call to Ms. Anderson.”

“I see.”

Stella said, “Let’s stop here. I will not bother you, Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence called her name out of the blue, “Stella.”

Stella felt her heart skip one beat when she heard it, “What’s wrong.”

“I will give you a chance, for the last time.” Clarence said slowly, “Do you want to remarry me?”

Stella replied after a long while of silence, “Mr. Conrad, why do you suddenly mention this?”

“You just need to answer my question.”

“Mr. Conrad, aren’t you going to marry Ms. Steward?”

Clarence replied, “All right, don’t find so many excuses. You won’t have such a chance again.”

He ended the call after finishing the words.

Stella was rendered speechless.

She looked out of the window, suddenly feeling her nose stinging.

What was this wretched man doing now? Why did he challenge her bottom line from time to time?

There suddenly came some knocking sounds on the door.

Stella rubbed her eyes. She stood up and walked towards the door.

…

On the other side…

Modesty felt quite restless when seeing that the public opinion on the Internet suddenly changed

towards the other topic.

She knew that those journalists wouldn’t have the guts to expose the Conrad Group’s secret. Originally,

she wanted to make use of them to expose that Stella had a sugar daddy and was pregnant with his

illegitimate child.

But she hadn’t expected that the progress of the whole thing was totally out of her control.

Apparently someone pointed out that the photos were photographed in the Conrad family and led to

public discussion on the illegitimate child. In the end, all the comments were targeting Clarence.

Modesty knew that the thing was now totally out of her expectation and she herself would probably be

involved.

When Modesty was pondering what she should do next, her phone suddenly rang. The caller ID was a

stranger. She hurriedly picked up her phone, “Mr. Miller?”

Adolph Miller paused before answering, “Modesty, they will find me soon. This may be the last time for

me to help you.”

Modesty hurriedly asked, “Mr. Miller, where are you?”

“Modesty, rest assured. I said that I will bear the consequences no matter what happens. I won’t

implicate you.”

Modesty was still worried when she heard this, “But… But…”

“Modesty, live your own life in the future. I don’t want you to hide in the darkness like me.”

There was a string of footsteps from the other end of the phone when Adolph finished the words. He

whispered something and at the next moment, Modesty heard the sound of something falling into the

water.

Adolph threw his phone into the water.

Modesty finally heaved a sigh of relief. In this case, even if they wanted to investigate this later, they

would not suspect her.

Modesty clenched her phone, hesitating. After a long while, he made the other call.

When the call was picked up, she said in a low voice, “Ms. Steward, it’s me.”

Phoebe said with a smile, “Ms. Parker, what’s the matter?”

“I want to ask you a question, what impacts will the disclosure on the Internet have on the Conrad

Group?”

“Ms. Parker, what do you mean by asking this?”

Modesty hurriedly made an explanation, “Ms. Steward, please don’t misunderstand it. It’s because…

because…”

Modesty was so nervous that she didn’t know what to say. She said after stammering for a while, “I

went to Paris for further study under the support of the Conrad Group and the company supported me

a lot after I came back to the country. No matter what happened, it had helped me a lot. And I wanted

to know the rope when seeing the sudden scandal of the Conrad Group.”

“Oh, that’s it.” Phoebe said in a gentle voice, “Actually I don’t know well about the situation either.

How’s it? I will ask others about this later, and I will tell you if I get any news. It’s that okay, Ms. Parker?”

“Of course. Thank you, Ms. Steward.”

“You’re welcome. It’s just that this happens so suddenly and the stock price of the Conrad Group

suffered a big loss because of this.”

Modesty felt her heart thumping so wildly that it almost jumped out of her throat when she heard the

words. Nonetheless, she didn’t dare to continue this topic as she was afraid that her secret would be

revealed. She could only say reluctantly, “Thank I shall express my gratitude to you in advance, Ms.

Steward. If you need my help later, please feel free to contact me.”

Phoebe said, “Thank you, Ms. Parker.”

After ending the call, Modesty turned on her phone to browse the news again and found that the

comments on this topic had reduced. She guessed that the Conrad Group must have begun to delete

negative comments and lead the public discussion.

She became more frightened.

Once they solved the comments on the Internet, they would definitely find out that she had involved in

this matter.
