Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

An hour later, Sherry heard the doorbell ring just as she was about to go to bed.

As she was walking towards the door, she was wondering who could be at the door as she did not purchase

anything online nor order any deliveries. She opened the door and it was Stella.

Sherry was puzzled and asked, “Stella, what’s up…”

Stella had the password to her lock and she had no need to ring the doorbell.

Elaine stuck her head out from behind Stella; her eyes were red and swollen. It was obvious that she had been

crying. She then whimpered, “I’m sorry, Sherry.”

Sherry paused and asked, “How are you?”

Elaine nodded, “I’m fine, but you…”

Sherry then said, “Let’s not mention about what had happened. Come in first.”

Though hearing Sherry's words, Elaine still could not forgive herself. She drooped her head and followed behind

Stella.

Sherry sat on the sofa, stretched her back and asked, “I’m hungry, have you eaten?”

Stella said, “No, what do you feel like eating? I’ll cook.”

Sherry held her back, “Sit down and have a rest. We can order take-outs. There is a new Korean restaurant that

opened nearby. I heard that the food is rather good. I always wanted to try it.”

She said as she took her cellphone and asked Stella, “Shall… I order some for Mr. Conrad?”

Stella smiled, “No need.”

Sherry was relieved, “Okay.”

She asked Elaine, “Elaine, what would you like?”

Elaine, sitting on the sofa, was clearly not at ease. She quickly looked up when she heard Sherry calling her, “Oh?

Me? Anything… I… I’m not hungry…”

Sherry said, “How can you not be hungry when you haven’t eaten. I’ll just order something for you.”

Stella reminded, “Don’t order anything spicy.”

Sherry leaned back onto the sofa and smacked her lips, “I know, I’ll order some snacks.”

Sherry could not resist and ordered a lot from the menu. When the food was delivered, she couldn't even place

them all on one table because the table was not gigantic enough.

Sherry saw the spread on the table and asked, “Shall we… call Mr. Conrad to come up to help us …”

Stella replied, “No need. I’ll just bring some to him later.” They could be more relaxed without Clarence.

Sherry took seven to eight boxes and gave them to Stella, “Bring these to Mr. Conrad.”

Stella was speechless. Stella then said, “He can’t finish all these.”

Sherry realized and then said, “Why don’t we have Chan come over and I’ll also ask Winnie?”

Thus, the supper became a gathering for them. As long as Channing was available, he would come over whenever

Stella invited him.

As for Winnie, she had just completed working on The Conrad group’s anniversary event and was feeling hungry.

She was about to grab a bite when she received a call from Sherry.

It was rather late and the traffic was light at that time. Very soon Channing and Winnie arrived.

Sherry said, “Stella, don’t take those to Mr. Conrad. Just invite him over, otherwise, he might think that we had

alienated him.”

Stella chuckled and said, “Okay.”

She went next door but Clarence was on the phone. It appeared that he was talking to someone from Auckland.

Stella did not disturb him but went to the bedroom to change her clothes.

Clarence had finished his call when she came out of the room.

Stella walked towards him and said, “Sherry…” Before she could continue, he grabbed her and pressed her onto

the sofa.

Stella looked at him and asked, “What are you doing?”

Clarence held her waist and pointed to the ring on her finger, whispering, “You should be spending time with me.

Where did you go?”

Stella smiled, “Am I not accompanying you every day?”

“How could it be the same?”

“Why not?”

Clarence said, “Come to think of it, you had forgotten something.”

“What?”

Clarence looked at her and uttered slowly, “When are we going to register our marriage?”

Stella opened her mouth to say something but Clarence interrupted, “Don’t try to deny. You agreed to marry me

when we were at Tekapo.”

“That’s true, but…”

“Do you want to pick an auspicious date?”

What he said gave Stella an excuse and she quickly nodded, “We should pick a good day for something as

important as getting married. Otherwise, the marriage might not be blessed.”

“You’re right. I’d already checked, tomorrow is the best day in a century.”

Stella was speechless.

Before she could retort, Clarence already sealed his lips over hers. His tongue licked at his teeth, teasing her to

open her mouth wider, and then speared into her mouth.

Stella struggled and gently pushed Clarence away, since her friends were waiting for them to start supper.

However, Clarence mistook her struggles as her invitation, so he grabbed her wrists and pressed them above her

head, and then he grabbed her inner thigh with the other hand. His hand began to slide upwards.

Stella could not breathe properly and started to moan. The atmosphere in the room started to turn hot and

passionate.

Clarence continued to grind and she began to respond to her arousal. Just as he was about to advance further, the

doorbell rang and interrupted them.

Stella quickly pushed him off and composed herself.

Sherry's voice was heard from outside, “Stella, are you ready?”

Stella quickly replied, “In a minute, please start first. I’ll be right over.”

“Quickly, the food’s getting cold.” Sherry reminded.

“Okay,” Stella replied and turned to look at Clarence who was upset at this point. She quickly said, “I came over to

invite you to supper. You didn’t even give me a chance to speak.”

She straightened out her clothes and said, “Okay, let’s go over. They are all there including Chan and Winnie.”

Clarence licked his lips and looked down. “How can I go over like this?”

Stella tried to keep a straight face, “Then… you stay here and I’ll bring some over for you.”

Clarence said with gritted teeth, “I’m waiting.”

Stella’s heart skipped a beat as she knew what he meant. She walked to the door, tidied her hair, took a deep

breath, and then entered the passcode to enter Sherry’s place.

Sherry saw that she was alone and asked, “Stella, where’s Mr. Conrad?”

“He… he’s not hungry. Let’s eat. Don’t worry about him.”
