Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

They stayed in the town of Tekapo for a week. They could see the blue sky every morning and the starry sky every

night.

And there was the crystalline Lake Tekapo beside them.

The townspeople were enthusiastic and hospitable. They would greet them every day.

After a week, Stella had learnt some simple greetings.

The place was indeed a Shangri-la.

It seemed to insulate them from the external disturbances when staying in this place.

On the day of departure, Stella was reluctant to leave there. She leaned against the window of the car and looked

outside.

The townspeople waved goodbye to them from a distance.

Clarence said, “If you like this place so much, we can come here once a year.”

Stella drew her attention back and looked at him, “Really?”

Clarence smiled and pulled her into his arms, “What do I lie to you for?”

Stella said, “Next time, we bring Noah here.”

“Ok.”

The car drove out of the town and headed for Christchurch.

They had reached the hotel at night.

They planned to stay for a night and departed to Semporna the next morning by their private jet.

At midnight, when Stella was in a mist of sleep, she felt that Clarence woke up and picked up a call.

After a while, she was woken up.

Clarence gazed at her and said softly, “Baby, we might have to skip the trip to Semporna.”

Stella was confused, “Huh?”

Clarence said, “We should go to London now.”

Hearing the word “London”, Stella’s sleepiness faded away.

Clarence kissed her forehead, “Get up, I have packed your things.”

It was midnight when they left Christchurch. The city was silent.

After getting up the plane, Stella grabbed Clarence’s cuff and she controlled her shivering voice, “Anything

happened?”

Clarence held her hand, “I don’t know the exact situation. So, I can’t tell you now.”

Clarence did not answer her directly, she was more worried. If it was nothing serious, Clarence wouldn't change the

plan to Semporna and depart at midnight.

It must be… Something happened to that person.

On the plane to London, Stella leaned against Clarence. Neither did she speak or sleep.

Possibly hours had passed, sunlight shone in through the window.

And after a period of time, sunlight faded away from the cabin. It fell in the silent night mode again.

Finally, the plane landed.

Someone had been waiting for them on the tarmac.

Clarence brought Stella into the car.

The nearer they got to the destination, the more nervous Stella was.

Her mind was messy. She could not calm herself down.

After an hour, the black car parked in front of a private hospital. Except for police cars, there were a lot of

bodyguards standing there.

Stella clenched her fists tighter once she went down the car.

Clarence approached her and held her hand. Then, they walked into the hospital.

The bodyguards let them in.

After entering the hospital, there were police standing there and recording something.

The atmosphere was suffocatingly tense.

Just then, a man walked out from the side, “Mr. Conrad, Ms. Radomil, please follow me.”

Stella remembered him. He was William’s assistant.

The assistant brought them to the ward on the top floor and said, “The ward downstairs is just a camouflage, Mr.

William is here.”

Stella looked at the man lying on the bed with an oxygen tube through the window. Her guess had been confirmed.

She found herself struggling to speak, “What happened?”

The assistant said, “Yesterday afternoon, after Mr. William left the house, he was attacked. The attacker was well

prepared and we lost badly. Mr. William was hurt severely and fell into a coma. He was still in a dangerous phase.”

“Why…”

“Those people have been spying on us for some time. They are hostile. They have robbed our goods a few times

and they even use their guns to threaten the suppliers. It causes the company to lose heavily.”

Clarence said, “Have you investigated their background?”

The assistant shook his head, “They’re desperados. They will sacrifice themselves for the sake of money.”

“They want money, but who would give it to them?”

“We have investigated everyone in the company and ruled out the irrelevant.”

Stella pursed her lips, “Daniel comes back because of this incident?”

The assistant nodded, “Yes.”

“Then he…”

“Daniel has been missing for a week.”

Stella opened her eyes widely, “What?”

The assistant said, “Daniel had traced the group of people a week ago. Before he went missing, he sent us an

address. But when we arrived, he had disappeared with those people.”

“William was attacked yesterday because he got a lead on Daniel and he left in a rush. However, he didn't expect

that it was just a trap.”

After Stella heard that, she was so shocked that she started to stagger and almost tumble on the floor.

William fainted after he was shot by the gun. He was still in danger. Meanwhile, Daniel had been missing for one

week. No one knew whether he was dead or alive…

Sherry was pregnant and she was waiting for him in City N.

Clarence held her and sat on the sofa.

The assistant saw that and nodded to them, “Mr. Conrad, Ms. Radomil, please take a rest here. I have other things

to deal with. Excuse me.”

After saying that, the assistant left.

Stella held Clarence’s hand. She choked, “I…”

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something but just failed.

Clarence patted her back gently and kissed her hair. He consoled her silently.

Stella closed her eyes and the corners of her eyes were moist.

She never expected that she would meet William again in such a situation.

She should have…she should have pretended that she did not know anything at the beginning and talked to him

nicely.

Although her memory about her biological father were long gone.

But whether it was the watch or the ring, or the fact that he went back to revenge in a different face, including the

fact that he chose not to tell her the truth and not to tell her who he really was, all his actions were aimed to not let

her be in a dilemma.

He was a wonderful husband and father in every way.

However, she never faced it and kept dodging him.

Stella gripped Clarence’s clothes and sobbed silently. And she cried louder and louder.

She did not manage to ask how he had been doing these years and whether he had lived a good life. She wanted to

ask him about the past and about her lost memory.

She didn't even manage to call him “daddy” once.
