Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Stella quitted looking at her phone. She closed all the pages and locked it. Staring at Noah who smiled happily on

the lock screen, her lips curved and she felt much better.

She wanted to go to Riverside City after she went back.

Although she could not meet Noah, it was good to see him from distance.

After a while, Stella was tired. She looked at the time; it was quite late. She went to bed without waiting for

Clarence.

At midnight, she felt that someone hugged her while she was in asleep.

Probably it was because she had slept too much these two days, she woke up early in the morning the next day.

She sat straight slowly and saw the sun rising up from distance. The sunlight fell on Clarence’s face through the gap

of the curtain. He frowned slightly.

Stella used her hand to block the light.

She looked at the man who slept soundly beside her, lowered her head and kissed his lips gently.

After a while, Stella got out of her blanket and went down the bed. She pulled the curtain tightly close, and then

entered the bathroom.

The door was opened when she was brushing her teeth.

Glancing at the man who showed a sleepy face, she rinsed her mouth and asked, “Why do you get up so early? Go

back to sleep.”

Although she was not aware of the time as she had fallen asleep last night, she could feel that Clarence came back

quite late.

Clarence said with his coarse voice, “I dreamed that someone kissed me secretly and I can’t sleep anymore.”

Stella was speechless.

She drew back her gaze and pretended to be fixating on brushing her teeth.

Clarence hugged her from behind and whispered, “Why don’t you ask me who kissed me in my dream?”

Stella bit her toothbrush and mumbled, “Why would I know about your dream?”

“The girl in my dream is pretty.”

“Oh.”

“Aren’t you jealous?”

Stella said with a calm expression, “Why should I be jealous? A dream is always opposite to the real world. You

dreamed that someone kissed you that means no one will do that in the real world.”

Clarence rubbed her neck and said smilingly, “Is it?”

Stella was rendered bashful and nudged him with her elbow, “I’m brushing my teeth. Get out of the way.”

Clarence released her and kissed her face instantly while she was off guard, he said, “I hope I can be wakened by

this dream every day.”

Stella was speechless.

Before Stella hit him, Clarence left the bathroom first.

After eating breakfast, they went downstairs. The man who picked them up when they reached Ireland had been

waiting downstairs.

He nodded at them slightly, “Mr. Conrad, Mrs. Conrad.”

After getting into the car, Clarence said to Stella, “It takes three to four hours. Just sleep if you feel tired.”

Stella was not tired at all. She was energetic.

She opened the window along the way.

The view along the journey was breath-taking. The air was fresh too.

Cows and goats could be seen by the road. Besides, there were many wild animals too.

The experience was fresh and exciting.

Out of the blue, she felt that the place where Clarence wanted to bring her to was a Shangri-la.

It had been afternoon when they reached the town of Tekapo. Not many people were seen in the town as the

weather was too hot.

The place was quieter than Christchurch.

The buildings around created a romantic atmosphere, making it look like a fairy tale world.

Soon, the car parked in front of a small house.

Stella opened the car door eagerly, for she wanted to see the town closely.

Clarence walked beside her, “Do you like this place?”

Stella nodded, “Yes, I do.”

If she knew this place before, her first choice must be here.

It was so pretty. The sky was so blue that she had ever seen anything like it. Inhaled was the pure fresh air.

Clarence curved his lips, “You will like it even more at night. Let’s go in and eat first.”

After saying that, he walked forwards.

Stella drew back her attention and followed him.

There were two middle-aged women waiting in the house. The dining table was full of food.

After they went in, the two middle-aged women bowed slightly. They talked in a language that Stella could not

understand, which might be the local language.

Clarence’s husky voice was heard, very pleasant to the ear, “Thanks.”

The two women left with a smile.

Stella asked him softly, “Do you understand what they say?”

Clarence walked towards the dining table and sat down, “I don’t understand but it is always good to be polite so that

others would at least bear with us.”

Stella was amused.

"Who could bear him?" she thought.

Clarence said, “Taste it. If you don’t like the food, ask them to prepare something else for you.”

Stella walked towards him and sat opposite him, “Now you're not worried about they can't bear you?”

Clarence raised his brow, “If it's for you, I'm willing to sacrifice my reputation.”

“Shut up.”

Stella took the cutlery in front of her and cut the food into smaller pieces.

The taste was weird but it was still acceptable.

The more she ate, the more tasty she felt.

The corner of Clarence's mouth turned up when he saw her enjoying the food.

After eating the lunch, Clarence said, “It is so hot now. Let’s take a nap and go out in the afternoon.”

Once he said that, Stella felt a bit sleepy and yawned.

She felt like eating and sleeping are the only two things occupying this trip.

Their room was on the second floor. Their luggage had been taken upstairs when they were eating.

Stella said while lying on the bed, “How many days do we stay here?”

“I plan to stay here for two days. If you like it here, we can stay a few days more.”

Stella hesitated and said, “Are we still going to Semporna?”

Clarence asked, “Why not?”

Stella did not speak. She felt that he had many things to do.

She turned around and closed her eyes. She said, “I just worry that the time is not enough.”

“Don’t you have Sherry in your studio?”

“Yes, but…”

“What do you usually do in your studio?”

“Drawing my design.”

Clarence said slowly, “Then why should you worry about the time?”

Stella didn't know how to answer that.

After a while, she realized what he meant.

Although most of the time she just let the staff to handle the stuff in the studio, she would help out there

occasionally.

Stella took a deep breath and closed her eyes tighter. She did not want to bother with him anymore.

After a few seconds, Clarence’s voice was heard, “Alright, since you are worried about it, I will ask Nathan to watch

it out.”

Stella said, “Doesn't he need to work?”

“Nathan is my subordinate. He does not belong to the Conrad Group,” Clarence said calmly, “He will leave once he

finishes all the handover stuff within this week.”

Stella was stunned, “Then he…”

“He is gonna be jobless, so he desperately needs your job. Can you consider it?”
