Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Sherry waved at Channing, “Wow, Chan, you become more handsome. More and more girls take fancy to you.”

Channing was rendered speechless.

When he prepared to say something, he spotted Elaine who stood beside Sherry with a slightly blushed face.

Sherry walked over and introduced Elaine, “Her name is Elaine James and she’s around your age.”

Elaine stammered, “H… Hello.”

Channing slightly nodded at her to show his greeting.

Right at this moment, someone walked past them and Sherry moved aside to make way for the person, but she

staggered.

Stella supported her, “Let’s get into the private room first. More and more guests will come here.”

Channing said, “Let’s go.”

Stella and Sherry walked in front of Elaine and Channing. Sherry couldn’t help turning around several times and

then she said to Stella in a whisper, “Is Elaine fascinated by Chan?”

Stella also turned around and took a glance at them when she heard the words.

Elaine walked shoulder to shoulder with Channing, clasping her hands and wriggling her fingers. Apparently, she

was very nervous at the moment.

But it seemed like there was something fishy.

Sherry said, “I was joking before. Oh come on, this can’t happen. But by the way, girls around Elaine’s age would be

easily captivated by good-looking boys and they would be easily attracted by boys around their ages. Channing

meets the two above-mentioned….”

Stella withdrew her gaze and said, “It’s the first time that they met each other. I don’t think she would fall into him

at the first glance. Maybe she has a social anxiety disorder.”

“I’ve been with her all day long today and I think she won’t have a social anxiety disorder.”

Stella was rendered speechless.

Sherry continued, “Falling in love at first sight is indeed being captivated by appearance. Because you’re beautiful,

Mr. Conrad began to…”

Stella covered her mouth, “All right, stop here.”

Sherry chuckled and pulled down Stella’s hand, “Well, I was joking. Elaine is a daughter of a rich family, of course,

she must have seen many gorgeous men. And Darnell must look better than Channing. We should not worry about

it since it hasn’t happened. Just wait for the progress and see what we should do next.”

They then arrived at the private room.

The moment they seated themselves, a waiter immediately walked into the room to help them order food.

Since people from Riverside, including Elaine, generally couldn’t eat food that was too spicy, and that Sherry

couldn’t eat too much spicy food either, they ordered a two-favour hot pot, one spicy and one not.

When finishing ordering food, Channing asked, “Where’s Clarence?”

Stella replied, “He has to deal with some matters in the company and he can’t come here.”

Channing groaned a nasal sound and didn’t say anything else on this topic.

Originally, Channing prepared to ask Stella about the child in detail, but due to Elaine’s presence, he didn’t bring up

this topic.

He thought he could ask her about this later.

Stella turned to the beverage page of the menu and asked them what they would like to drink. Thereafter, she

asked Sherry, “Will Daniel join us?”

“I don’t know either. He didn’t answer my call. Come on, just enjoy our meal and leave him alone. It’s good if he

doesn’t come. Then I can eat more spicy food.”

Stella chuckled. Right at this moment, her phone rang.

It was a call from Winnie, who told her that she would arrive soon and asked her which private room they were in.

Stella said, “It may be a bit hard for you to find the private room. I will let Channing lead you in.”

After ending the call, Stella looked towards Channing, “Winnie will arrive at the restaurant soon. Go out and take her

in.”

Channing nodded his head and then stood up.

After her leaving, Sherry said to Elaine who was looking in the direction of the door, “Elaine, what are you looking

at?”

Elaine immediately withdrew her gaze and violently shook her head, “Nothing… I’m pondering when they will serve

the dishes. I’m a bit hungry.”

Stella said, “I ordered some snacks and they will be served on the table soon.”

A bright smile immediately showed up on Elaine’s face as she said, “Okay!”

Judging from her reaction, it seemed like she was really hungry and was looking at the door anxiously, waiting for

the dishes.

…

Outside of the hot pot restaurant…

The driver parked the car and Winnie put on her black peaked cap and a mask.

After getting out of the car, she looked around and found many people in the surroundings, yet she didn’t spot

Channing.

Winnie took out her phone and prepared to send a message to Channing. Right at this moment, someone grasped

her wrist.

Channing said, “There’re many people here. We can come to the back door.”

Winnie subconsciously let out a concise answer and followed behind him. After taking several steps, she finally

realized that he was still gripping her wrist.

Winnie moved her lips trying to say something. When she prepared to withdrew her hand, several boys and girls

came towards them.

Holding Winnie’s hand, Channing pulled her aside to evade the group of people.

Being distracted, Winnie forgot this matter and sneaked into the hot pot restaurant through the back door.

Maybe it was because there were few people in the corridor, it was excessively quiet. Channing finally came to his

sense. He slightly moved his slender fingers and then slowly withdrew his hand.

Winnie immediately asked, “When did your sister come back from Riverside?”

Her question tactfully alleviated the awkwardness.

Channing replied, “She came back yesterday.”

“Is Mr. Conrad going to have dinner with us?”

“Nope,” Channing paused and then asked, “You don’t want to have the meal with him?”

Winnie chuckled awkwardly, “Not exactly. For the gatherings for me and my friends after work, it will be better if my

boss is not present.”

Channing replied, “Rest assured. He won’t come.”

Winnie patted her chest, “That’s so great. I will attend the recording of a variety show several days later. And I’m

afraid that he may raise many questions.”

Channing asked after being silent for several silent, “When will you leave?”

Winnie was bewildered, “What?”

“Didn’t you say that you have to attend the recording of a variety show several days later? When will you go

there?”

“Oh, they haven’t decided the exact time. I have to deal with other work in these two days and it hasn’t been

decided.”

Channing slightly pressed his lips together and didn’t say anything else.

Winnie continued, “What about you? Are you on your summer holiday?”

“Almost. I will have the last examination tomorrow.”

Winnie was stunned and asked, “Don’t you need to review the subject?”

Channing replied, “No need.”

Winnie couldn’t help complimenting him in her heart: is this the strength of a Straight-A student?

After taking several steps, she asked another question, “Then… Will your company arrange work for you when your

summer holiday begins?”

She also heard that Channing refused to attend any talent show before and that his requirement to the company

was to arrange his work on holidays since he still wanted to place priority on his study.

This was good. He was still young and he could take the working experience in the entertainment community as a

kind of advanced social practice.

For people who had a high IQ like him, it would be a waste of talent if he chose to become a star. It would be a pity.

Channing replied after a while of silence, “Yes, they arranged it.”

Winnie said, “Well, feel free to turn to me if you have any problems with your work. After all, I’ve been in the

entertainment industry for many years and I’m not only a friend like your sister, but also a senior. I’m confident to

say that I know about this industry better than you.”

Channing pressed his thin lips together and groaned an answer lightly. He didn’t say anything else.

They soon arrived at the private room.

Channing said, “You go in first.”

Winnie turned around and asked in confusion, “What about you?”
