Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Meanwhile, Steward Group.

Nathan brought in a file. “Excuse me, Mr. Conrad. The bidding documents for this afternoon have been ready.”

Clarence hummed to answer and took the document over, only to find Nathan was still standing there.

He said, “What happened? Speak.”

Nathan answered, “Mr. Carter went to Ms. Radomil earlier. It seemed their conversation ended unhappily.”

Clarence wasn’t surprised at this result. He lowered his head to read through the document. “Would you be happy if

this happened to you?”

Nathan clicked his tongue. He had to admit Mr. Conrad was competent.

He hadn’t done anything, but it seemed his goal had been achieved.

Instantly, the conflict between Stella and Emmett had been brought to the highest.

His rival in love was so doomed.

Clarence looked up. “How’s your investigation going?”

Nathan returned to his senses and said, “I’ve found something. Mr. Carter’s mother used to be a close friend of Ms.

Radomil’s mother. However, for some reason, after Ms. Radomil’s parents got married, the two ladies were

distanced. Shortly after, Mrs. Carter married Mr. Carter’s father. Mr. Carter’s father got along with Ms. Radomil’s

parents, in fact. Rumors has it that he had feelings for...”

Clarence asked, “Is that all?”

Nathan nodded. “Yes, that’s what I’ve found so far. After all, it happened two or three decades ago. It was related

to the last generation. Hence, it’s not easy to confirm.”

“Aren’t the people involved still alive? Go ahead to confirm with them.”

Nathan was confused. “People involved? Mr. Carter’s mother?”

“No matter his father or mother, just talk to the one that would more likely give you an answer.”

Nathan nodded. “I got it, Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence asked, “When will the bidding start?”

Nathan checked the time. “At three in the afternoon. There are still one hour forty minutes left. We can set off at

two o’clock.”

“Okay. Go back to your work.”

Nathan answered and left the office.

According to the current investigation, Clarence didn’t think Emmett’s mother would tell the truth.

Hence, they could work on his father instead.

In the hospital.

Emmett couldn’t get the truth from his mother.

His mother said, “Since you’ve got the test result, you should do whatever you ought to. You can also file a

complaint against me in the hospital. I admit I’ve made a mistake in the test. I accept whatever punishment from

the hospital.”

Emmett frowned. “Mom...”

“All right. I can’t talk to you anymore. I must go back to work.”

Then she turned away.

Emmett stood there motionlessly, feeling extremely helpless that he had never felt before.

He didn’t want to do that to his mother.

He wondered why.

...

At the studio.

Stella sat at her desk for a long while. She kept fiddling with the ornaments beside her.

She didn’t draw a brush on the draft paper in front of her.

While she was lost in thought, her shoulder was patted. “What are you thinking of?”

Stella turned around and gasped, “Sherry?”

Sherry opened her suitcase, and started to take out some of the things and place them on the desk. “My mother

asked me to give them to you.”

“Why are you back? Didn't you say you wished to accompany your parents for more days?”

Sherry sat on the sofa, heaving a sigh. “Alas... My mother has sent me back. She said whenever seeing me, she

wanted to urge me to get married. Out of sight, out of mind. Hence, I ran away.”

Stella smiled. “What about Daniel? He went to find you, didn't he?”

Sherry curled her lips. “Why should I care about him? I’ve gone. He can stay there however he likes.”

“Aren’t you afraid he will revisit your parents?”

“If he really loves to go to my parents’ house, he can become my parents’ godson. They like him a lot, anyway.”

Stella said, “Cut out the nonsense.”

Sherry opened her bag and pulled something out. “By the way, this is the test result..”

Stella took it over. She lowered her head, feeling upset.

Sherry knew Stella invited Chan for dinner last night. She asked, “What happened? Did Chan say something?”

Stella put away the test result. “He said everything had ended after Jeffrey had died. It’s not important who his

father is.”

Sherry could imagine this scene, actually.

She heaved a sigh. After a while, she asked, “What do you plan to do now? Will you tell your father?”

Stella shook her head. “I don’t want to tell him for the time being. I want to wait for Chan’s reaction. He needs time

to accept it. Otherwise, my father will be upset and blaming himself after knowing Chan’s attitude.”

Sherry scratched her hair and asked gingerly, “Then... Emmett Carter...”

“He came to me at noon and apologized to me. He didn’t say anything else, though.”

When Sherry asked Daniel that question, she had expected him to tell Emmett.

She said, “This matter is quite confusing. I still can’t understand why Emmett had done it. He wouldn’t benefit from

it, would he? Mr. William trusts him so much.”

“I don’t know, either,” Stella said in a low voice. “However, it’s not important now. I just wonder what Chan should

do.”

Sherry said, “Chan always knows what he wants, especially on this matter. I don’t think it’s easy to resolve.”

Stella said, “My father will come back to City N soon. Once I imagine the scene when they met, I feel... horrified.”

Hence, she wished that everything could be resolved before that.

However, it wouldn’t be that easy.

When thinking about that scene, Sherry felt panicked.

Hence, she could understand how worried and hesitant Stella was now.

Sherry thought for a few seconds. “We can... ask Winnie for help.”

Stella raised her head in a daze. She had never thought of that earlier.

Sherry added, “Think about it. Chan has been against this matter already. No matter you or I tell him, Chan would

resist it. He won’t think about this problem calmly. However, Winnie is different. Her goal isn’t so evident as ours.

She can raise the topic to Chan more easily. Besides, I guess... Chan probably will listen to her.”

“But, she and Chan haven’t..”

“Isn’t that good? They could become closer due to this matter. I’m sure Chan will be delighted.”

“Will Winnie agree?”

Sherry smiled mysteriously. “Winnie has a crush on Chan, but she didn’t dare to face her real thought. However,

she will definitely agree to help him overcome his psychological disorder.”

As she spoke, Sherry picked up her phone and said, “I’m gonna call her now.”
