Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

On the other end of the phone, Amanda said, “I don’t know. This is the boss’s business. I can’t just simply ask him

about it. But I heard before that this child was born prematurely because of the boss’s family. His family’s situation

is quite complicated. I guess he wants to finish all those messy things at home.”

“So what’s going on in his family won’t get you involved, right?”

“No. Don’t worry about it.”

Logan withdrew his eyes, “Then I’ll come and pick you up now.”

Amanda said, “Alright.”

After hanging up the phone, Logan tossed his phone aside and loosened his tie, looking a bit contemptuous.

…

In the studio…

After Armand and Logan left, Sherry walked in, “Stella, what are they seeking you for?”

Stella pursed her lips, looking aimlessly ahead, “Something about the Steward Group.”

“The Steward Group? What happened to it?”

“Since Lyndon ran away, no one manages the Steward Group and it’s in a mess.”

“That has nothing to do with you either. What are they doing here looking for you?”

Stella whispered, “They want me to step in and take over the Steward Group, just to get investments and bank

loans for the Steward Group.”

Sherry thought it was a scam, “Don’t say yes. Whoever who takes over the Steward Group in such a state will get

into big trouble. They can just do whatever they like, and it has nothing to do with you anyway.”

Stella hummed, “I also think so, but…”

“But what?”

“Besides the thousands of the Steward Group’s employees, many others were affected by this incident too. They

are all innocent.”

Sherry frowned hearing this, “That’s true. That Lyndon is such a shit, not just harming everyone and also leaving

such a big mess behind. But… Stella, this really doesn’t have much to do with you. You don’t need to take any

responsibility, and you don’t need to care at all.”

Stella lowered her head, “I know.”

Sherry sighed, looking at her.

Knowing was on the one hand and what to do on the other.

After a while, Stella suddenly said, “Sherry, are you still in contact with Daniel recently?”

Sherry’s face turned slightly red, “No… Why should I have contact with him?”

They hadn’t seen each other since the last funeral of Stella’s mother.

That was good to avoid any troubles.

Stella said, “I want to talk to him.”

Sherry tilted her head slightly, seemingly puzzled, “He has a solution to this matter?”

“Nope.”

Stella didn’t know what to say, and only after a pause did she say, “Just that… he would know more about the

Steward Group’s situation than I do.”

Sherry nodded, “That’s true. He had taken great pains to get close to Phoebe in the first place.”

At that, Stella smiled, “Are you jealous?”

“Nonsense… Why should I jealous of him. I just think he’s quite capable, even Phoebe is fooled by him.”

Stella said, “Fine. Then I’ll go find him later. Do you want to join me?”

Sherry said, “No way I’m going. I have a blind date tonight.”

Stella remembered this, and she was stunned, “It’s today?”

“Yeah, it’s just a dinner anyway. After that I’ll just find a reason to refuse, and we go our own way.”

Stella nodded thoughtfully, “So when are you going?”

Sherry looked at the time, “The date is six o’clock, and I’ll leave at about five thirty. It’s close anyway, and it’ll take

me ten minutes to drive there.”

Stella said, “That’s good. Let me give you a lift.”

“No need, I’m driving myself.”

Stella babbled seriously, “You didn’t get it, right? If you think your date is okay, you can hint at him to take you

home after dinner and promote your relationship too. If not okay, you can just take a taxi and leave. So if you drive,

you won’t have any chance.”

Sherry’s eyes lit up, surprisingly felt that Stella had a point too, “You’re right. If he’s a big handsome guy, I’m willing

with it.”

“Then it’s a deal. I’ll send you over later.”

“Okay. I’ll go change and put on my makeup then. I’m in a hurry to get out this morning and I haven’t prepared

anything.”

“Go on.”

Stella let out a sigh of relief after Sherry left the office. She then called Daniel.

Stella said, “Do you have time to come out for a chat?”

Daniel agreed readily, “Sure, where is it?”

“I’m still at the studio. I’ll send you the address later.”

“Ok.”

Stella curled her lips after hanging up the phone. After thinking a while, she sent a message to Clarence, asking

when he would be home tonight.

Clarence hadn’t replied yet after ten minutes. It seemed that he would have to work until midnight again.

Stella put down her phone, opened the webpage and searched for the Steward Group.

Every single message that popped up was not good.

Many workers were sitting on the ground in some of the suspended projects, with their eyes blank and unsure what

to do.

When reporters interviewed them, they said they hadn’t received a single penny and didn’t dare to go home. So

they just waited there, not knowing exactly waiting for what.

In another project, the partner’s boss even tried to commit suicide by jumping off a building because he couldn’t

bear the pressure. He was found and saved, but he also broke his leg.

The list went on and on.

These were just the tip of the iceberg.

Stella closed the browser and leaned back in her chair, letting out a long breath.

He should have seen the news too. What on earth was he thinking?

Stella looked at the baby’s breath outside the window and was slightly lost in thought.

After some time, Sherry came knocking on the door, “Stella, it’s five o’clock. Let’s leave.”

Stella retrieved her thoughts and got up, “Let’s go.”

As it was a weekend, there was no traffic at this time, and they just arrived in ten minutes.

After the car pulled up in front of the restaurant, Sherry unfastened her seatbelt, “Stella, I’ll go in then. Take care on

your way.”

Stella smiled at her, “Alright.”

After Sherry entered the restaurant, Stella drove forward to find a spot where she could park. After she stopped,

she sent the address to Daniel.

Daniel was coming from home, which wasn’t far from here, and would be there in twenty minutes.

Stella stood next to the restaurant and waited for him.

After parking the car, Daniel walked over to her, “Sorry to have kept you waiting, Ms. Radomil.”

Stella said, “It’s fine as I’m the one who finds you first.”

“Let’s go in.”

When she entered the restaurant, Stella saw Sherry sitting by the window and a man sitting opposite her. Stella

couldn’t see his face as his back was to her.

Stella chose a seat that was just visible from their side, “Let’s sit here.”

Daniel didn’t notice anything unusual and replied, “Okay.”

When he sat down, he looked up and found that Sherry was just not far away.
