Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Sherry took Stella’s phone, and the smile on her face faded little by little.

On the screen, Daniel was blindfolded and gaged, his body covered with bloody wounds.

There were injures on his shoulders, chest, and waist...

Sherry recalled that though it was hot, Daniel wore long sleeves that night.

He must be wearing it to cover his wounds.

After a while, she returned the phone to Stella and said casually, “Okay. In that case, I feel a little bit better in my

heart.”

“Sherry...” Stella hesitated.

Sherry put on a smile. “Well, I know what you want to say. I am clear about my relationship with him. We are not

even boyfriend and girlfriend to each other. In the past, I did not feel anything wrong about it. But now I realize that

he and I come from different worlds. It's time for us to say goodbye to each other. But I do hope that he is safe and

sound. After all, we are still friends.”

Stella did not say anything else. She knew it was Sherry’s own choice, just like what Clarence said.

Sherry added, “Just go to Riverside City without worry. I will take care of things here.”

Stella nodded. “Help me keep an eye on Channing. I am afraid he will go to Chassell.”

“All right. He will start school in a few days. And I will pay attention to him. If there is any news, I will tell you

immediately,” Sherry said.

After sending Stella to the door, Sherry asked, “Will Elaine come back?”

Stella looked ahead and replied, “I... I don’t know.”

...

On the private plane to Riverside City, Stella kept looking out of the window and pondering.

Clarence gently pinched her nose. “What’s wrong?”

She retrieved her thoughts. “I was thinking since those elders and Hilbert died, and the James family is completely

under control of Darnell, so maybe Ms. Anderson could...”

He replied, “After the death of Hilbert, the James family will only be in bigger chaos.”

“Why?”

“Although most of the elders who opposed Darnell died, their families are still alive and secretly making contact

with Caesar. In the past, these people dared not to do such things because Hilbert is still in charge. But now without

any control, the multiple forces once hidden in the James family will surface.”

“I thought Darnell had took care of those people already?” she asked.

“The ones he took care of were just some reckless minions, the easiest part.”

Hearing his words, she understood.

With people like Caesar who tried to make things worse in the James family, she wondered what the future of

Riverside City would be like.

She looked up suddenly and said, “In that case, Ms. Anderson and the child…”

“Don’t worry. They are focusing on Hilbert’s funeral now. So we still have time.”

She instantly felt relieved a bit.

Since he had said so, he must have made arrangements.

Two hours later, the plane finally landed.

Sitting in the car, she felt a little nervous even breathing. “Archer said he did not allow us to see the kid for fear that

the separation later would make him feel worse. But now Riverside City is no longer safe, so can I go see him and

take him back to City N?”

He stroked her hair and said softly, “Yes.”

A big smile spread on her face.

After being separated for so long, she finally got to see her baby.

Seeing her so happy, he pursed his thin lips but did not make a sound.

Well, he would talk about it in the future if there was a chance.

After more than an hour, their car slowly got on the way to the house on the hill side.

It was a quiet place with refreshing air.

She got off the car, hurriedly walked inside and as soon as she entered the villa, she saw Archer come out.

He waved at her. “It’s been a long time.”

She nodded and asked quickly, “Where is Noah?”

“He is having a treatment. Do you want to go take a look?”

She pursed her lips slightly. “Okay.”

The third floor of the villa was changed into a laboratory. Although it was not exactly like the large laboratory in

Riverside City, this one was equally well-equipped.

A few doctors were doing their own thing.

Archer took her and Clarence to the door of the treatment room. “You stay here and watch him. No need to go in.”

In the treatment room, the little boy looked taller than in the photos Archer sent her. He was sitting in the bed,

letting the doctor do the job obediently. Seemed like he had gotten used to tit.

She felt heartbroken as she watched, and asked with a trembling voice, “How long should this treatment last?”

“It’s hard to say. Two to three years. Or maybe ten to twenty years.”

She closed her eyes, subconsciously grabbing Clarence’s arm.

He immediately took her into his arms for comfort.

At this time, the boy in the treatment room had noticed them and turned his head to look over, showing a big smile

and a few cute little teeth.

Archer smiled in the direction of him and waved at him.

When the boy was carried away by the doctor for another treatment, Archer said, “Let’s go. It will still take an

hour.”

She shook her head, her eyes reddened. “I will stay here.”

Clarence held her shoulders and pulled her forward. “It’s useless for you to stay here and you will only disturb the

doctor.”

She then was taken away by him just like that.

Archer followed them as well.

When they reached downstairs, Clarence’s phone rang and he went out to answer the call.

Archer sat in the sofa and looked at Stella. “See? I told you not to come, and now you are like this. As the attending

doctor, it wasn't easy for me to make the choice of allowing you here, you know?”

She took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions. “Aren’t you going back to James Mansion?”

“Are you referring to the death of doyen?” he asked in reply.

She nodded.

He said, “He is over ninety years old. It’s fortunate that he felt little pain when he died. It was actually a happen

ending since he died of old age. Whether I go back or not does not matter. He has so many children and

grandchildren. As long as Elaine goes back, it’s enough.”

Then he added, “Besides, I am the attending doctor here. How can I go absent just like this?”

“Aren’t there other doctors here? If you are staying here because of…”

“I lied. It doesn't have much to do with my duty here. You should know that my whereabouts are being monitored

by many people in the James family. Once I leave here and get discovered, everyone in this villa will suffer.”

Upon hearing his words, she could not help but frown.

Riverside City at the moment was so frightening.

He said, “Don’t worry. So far at least we are all safe here.”
