Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

On the way, Sherry saw the sun setting bit by bit.

It would take them an hour to go back to the downtown by driving.

It seemed that she couldn’t take photos of the Thames today.

However, the landscape here was not bad, either.

She saw a big lake from afar, which reflected the setting sun.

Sherry pulled out her camera and pressed the shutter.

When Daniel turned around, he saw the scene.

She was standing there holding a camera. Her long hair was brushed by the breeze. Behind her was the setting sun,

whose light was painting the outline of her figure.

For a moment, his breath had been taken away.

Ever since Lyndon took him away and Amanda controlled him, he had been thinking about a question for dozens of

nights.

He asked himself whether he would resign himself to the fate of dying like that.

He had never been so enthusiastically in love before.

He didn’t have the desire to fall in love in the past.

He couldn’t even remember most of the women whom he had dated.

They only got what they needed. The impulse driven by the physical desire came and went fast.

Hence, they disappeared from his memory quickly as well.

However, Sherry was entirely different. She was optimistic but not arrogant, enchanting but not garish.

Daniel’s first impression of her was she was a good-tempered girl with lovely characters. Later, he found that she

had a crush on him.

However, he didn’t take her crush seriously. They could date if she were in London and he didn’t dislike her.

He had been to City N for business, though. Besides, she was Stella’s friend, and Stella was Clarence’s wife. He

didn’t want to have many things to do with Sherry. He went to find her to achieve his goals.

Sherry had known about it, but she agreed to his condition for the sake of Stella.

When getting along with Sherry, Daniel gradually had a crush on her.

Meanwhile, he realized that he had made a wise decision not to fool around with her.

Sherry was a good girl, so she deserved a man who could love and cherish her.

However, he didn’t know she used to have a boyfriend who had cheated on her and still pestered her.

Hence, Daniel’s crush on her also contained some complicated feelings that he couldn't even figure out himself. He

felt sorry for her.

Later, they made love.

Daniel didn’t regret it. He always wondered how to balance this relationship and not harm her.

However, before he spoke, Sherry told him casually that they both were adults, so she didn’t need him to be

responsible as long as they had fun.

Daniel was choked by her words at that moment.

They kept an ambiguous relationship, but he could feel Sherry was trying her best to distance herself from him.

Then, she got pregnant.

When hearing the news, Daniel was shocked. For the first time in the past thirty years in his life, his mind went

blank. He didn’t know what to do at all.

However, he never thought of giving up on the baby.

Sherry was more determined than he was. She even made the decision quickly.

When hearing that she was pushed into the operation room, Daniel felt the emptiness in his heart as if he had lost

something and failed to grasp it.

Fortunately, Sherry regretted it at the critical moment.

Daniel felt as if the child was a gift from Heaven, so he must grasp the chance and protect Sherry and their child.

Daniel had been an orphan out on the streets in France when he was a kid.

He always fought violently against many older kids just for a piece of cheese in the trash can.

He had no parents, families, or friends.

If William hadn’t adopted him, he didn’t know if he would still be alive.

However, William wasn’t his biological father.

Hence, that baby had a special meaning to him.

It was the only human blood-related to him in this world.

While taking care of Sherry and the baby, he loved Sherry more and more.

Sometimes, when seeing her sitting on the sofa and eating fruits while watching TV, he couldn’t help but imagine a

two- or three-year-old child running around the house and calling them Dad and Mom.

However, it was like a dream, so unreal.

Before he could make his dream come true, something happened in London, so he had to rush back to deal with it.

In each second of the torture, his dream became clearer and clearer.

What he wanted was always simple.

However, destiny always played tricks on humans. He had no chance to restart it at all.

When he went back, the dream that had been lingering in his mind collapsed.

It had been long gone.

Sherry was unwilling to see him again. Daniel often blamed himself. If he had made a bit more effort back then,

would anything be different right now?

However, reality told him that he was too late.

He was so desperate to have one last try.

Sherry finished taking photos. Then she lowered her head to check the pictures on the camera -- all well taken.

When she raised her head, she saw Daniel standing while looking in her direction, lost in thought.

Sherry looked around but didn’t find anything wrong. She asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”

Daniel withdrew his gaze. “Nothing. Let’s keep walking.”

It was getting dark.

Fortunately, after several minutes, they saw a motel in front.

They walked over, and Daniel talked to the owner.

There were a lot of stray dogs nearby the motel. Sherry took photos of them.

Soon, Daniel walked to her and said, “I’ve called someone to repair my car. Let’s wait inside.”

Sherry stroked a puppy’s head and followed him into the motel

The owner served them food and water.

Sherry had finished her water on the way, so she was thirsty. After gulping down a half bottle, she asked Daniel,

“When will they arrive?”

Daniel said, “Probably in two hours.”

“But it only took an hour for us to arrive here earlier...”

“It’s more difficult for them to drive here at night.”

Sherry bulged her cheeks. It made sense.

They had walked for a long time, so Sherry was exhausted. After dinner, she yawned.

The owner suggested they check in a room first.

Sherry waved her hand to refuse. However, she was so sleepy that she dozed off on the sofa.

Daniel sat aside while staring at her.

The owner asked, “Are you guys in love?”

Daniel smiled. Picking up the water glass, he said, “Sort of.”
