Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

After learning the news, Caesar was not so happy. He originally thought that Complex Corporation would have no

time to care about Steward Group after receiving a heavy blow. But he did not expect that it would recover so

quickly.

As for Southwest…

He frowned while asking Jon, “Do you have more specific information?”

“Well, of course. But I can’t guarantee that it is real,” replied Jon.

“Tell me about it,” he said.

“Southwest was founded three years ago in Auckland. And their core members are New Zealanders. As for the

mysterious investor…” Jon paused and then added, “I only know that Clarence went to Auckland to talk business

three years ago. Whether he is related to this company, I am not sure.”

Christian said, “If it were in the past, the investor of this company would remain a mystery. But from what

happened today, it is most likely Clarence.”

Jon folded his legs and said casually, “Don’t be so sure about everything. What if Clarence is only on good terms

with the company?”

Caesar took off his gold-rimmed glasses and said, “I do have a way to figure it out.”

“Oh?” Jon said.

Just when the online discussion about Steward Group’s share price returning in full swing became heated, people on

the internet began to question who the investor behind Southwest truly was.

Soon someone used Clarence’s trip to Auckland three years ago as evidence to show that he was the most likely

answer.

Otherwise, he would not have helped Steward Group under such a situation.

As the discussion continued, people began to talk about the actions of Clarence. Three years ago when he invested

in Southwest, he did it in the name of the president of Conrad Group. So from a certain perspective, Southwest

should belong to Conrad Group, rather than Clarence personally.

But at the same time, some people also felt that since when Clarence left Conrad Group, he did not disclose all the

assets under his name or return any of the assets to Conrad Group, which suggested that he didn't really want to

step off the throne and let go of the glory Conrad Group had brought him.

Almost at the same time, this discussion post went viral.

Many people had a hot discussion over the several questions raised in the post.

Some people were still arguing about whether the mysterious investor behind Southwest was Clarence while others

began to quarrel over the issue that whether Southwest should belong to Conrad Group or Clarence personally.

People who believed that Southwest should belong to Conrad Group thought that it was an investment made by

Clarence who was president back then and had used Conrad Group’s money. In fact, without Conrad Group, there

would be no Clarence, not to mention Southwest. Since Clarence had decided to give Conrad Group to Justin, the

assets that belong to Conrad Group should be returned in full.

But other people considered Southwest as an independent entity having no relationship with Conrad Group. In the

past few years, Southwest enjoyed an equal if not better reputation internationally. Thanks to Clarence’s

investment, Southwest could have made such achievement in the world. So there was no reason for Justin to

harvest without any efforts.

Different people held different views and tried to convince each other online.

But from the beginning to the end, Steward Group, Conrad Group and Southwest did not come out on the Internet

to respond to this matter.

At night, when Clarence came to pick up Stella, who was sitting in her office, staring at the starry sky outside the

window.

He sat next to her and asked in a low voice, “What is wrong?”

She came back to her senses and replied, “Nothing. Have you handled the matter?”

“I am almost done. Steward Group’s crisis has been lifted,” he said.

“I saw a lot of discussion about whether Southwest should belong to Conrad Group, so you…” she hesitated.

“What does it have to do with them?” he said in a slow and calm way. “Only Justin is qualified to question the

matter.”

She got stunned for a second, and then smiled. It seemed that he had not changed at all.

After thinking for a moment, she asked again, “If Justin comes to you and asked you to return Southwest, will you

agree?”

He simply replied, “No.”

Before she could say anything, he added, “Because the investment is not from me.”

She got confused in silence.

“I invested it in your name,” he said.

Say what???

He then added slowly, “Since you married me, I should give you betrothal money. But at that time, I did not want to

give it to you. And when I invested in Southwest, I also did not want to do it in the name of Conrad Group, so I used

the betrothal money to invest. Thus, the investment is done under your name.”

She got speechless.

After a long silence, she said, “Have you been so unpredictable ever since your birth?”

She really did not expect that in those three years when he hated her so much, he had done so many things

without her knowledge.

Every time he came back from a business trip, he would bring her gifts. When he was in Auckland on business, he

heard about the Dark Sky Reserve in Tekapo and went all the way there.

Not only that, he also thought of giving her the betrothal money. Though he hated her in his heart and did not give

her the money personally, he invested in a company in her name.

Thinking about all these things, she put on a wry face.

He leaned closer, staring at her with his deep-set eyes, and slowly said, “Do you think my father can really do

anything to me if I insist on not marrying you?”

Back then, she did not quite understand those things.

But now when she thought about it, considering his character, if he was determined not to marry her, his father

could not do anything about it.

She smiled and said, “You feel contradicted and unhappy, so you come to torture me, huh?”

He frowned with hands on her seat armrest, then he pulled her chair closer and said in a husky voice, “Are you sure

that is torture? I remember you obviously enjoyed it.”

She got speechless again.

He really could not keep his decency for over three seconds!

She tried to kick his chair away using her foot, but he did not let go of the armrest of her chair, causing her to fall

with her chair.

Her chair hit the door with a thud. And she did not know what to say.

They were the only ones in the office. So this sound seemed a little bizarre to others.

She looked up with her eyebrows furrowed and met his gleaming eyes.

He did it on purpose!

She slapped the back of his hand. “Let go of me!”

He lifted his hands and raised his eyebrows slightly, as if saying what just happened had nothing to do with him.

Just as she stood up, the door was opened slightly from the outside. A girl’s voice came, “Stella, are you…”

The girl’s last word was muffled by Sherry.

Sherry dragged her outside while whispering, “Kids should not interfere with adult matters.”
