Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

When Stella and Sherry arrived at the Steward’s Mansion, Clarence and Archer James were not there. Only Elaine

James was playing a swing while shooting the night landscape of the garden.

Seeing the arrival of the ladies, she ran over to them directly, “Stella! Sherry! You are back!”

Stella asked, “Where are Archer and Clarence?”

“They have just left.”

“Did they say where they went?”

Elaine said, “No, they didn’t. But Clarence did let me to remind you to sleep early, not to wait for him.”

Stella nodded, “I know. But it’s late now. You should go to bed, dear.”

“Oh,” Elaine said, “A boy came to visit us a few hours ago. I don’t know him, but the guard didn’t stop him so I guess

he is a friend of yours. Seemingly he had just had a fight with someone. His face was covered all over with

wounds.”

Stella and Sherry looked at each other, Sherry asked, “Is he an Amerasian who was quite handsome?"

Elaine nodded, “Is he a friend of yours?”

Sherry coughed, “No… I’m a bit tired right now. I want to have a rest in my room.”

After that, she got back to her room in a hurry.

Elaine stared at Stella confusedly. The latter smiled faintly, “I will introduce him to you tomorrow. You should go to

bed now. It’s a bit late.”

With her hand holding her phone before her chest, Elaine said, “I still want to stay here for a second.”

Stella said, “I noticed that you were shooting something. Are you going to send the video to your dad?”

“Uh…” Elaine got a little bit flushed before she mumbled, “Yes. I… I am going to send it to dad.”

Stella said, “Well, then you could stay here for a while but no for too long. It’s cold here.”

“Okay. I won’t.”

“Good night.”

After Stella left, Elaine sent the video she had just shot to someone.

But that someone didn’t reply.

Elaine checked the chat history and found that he also did not reply to the last several messages she had sent him,

which made her pout.

To make it worse, what he replied was nothing but one or two words.

It was not hard to tell that they were just perfunctory replies.

He acted like an elder to her who was too busy to take those “childish” messages seriously.

Elaine sat back to the swing with her hands down on legs. With her toes stroking the ground softly, she began to

play the swing in a disappointed way.

…

The moment Sherry opened the door of her bedroom, the words of Elaine welled up in her mind. Then she stopped.

Daniel must know that Stella and Clarence lived on the first floor. So, he wouldn’t choose to bother them, which

meant it was quite possible that he was now living on the ground floor.

Sherry knocked on the door of the two empty rooms on the ground floor.

And there was no reply.

After a while of hesitation, she opened the door of one of the two rooms in a sudden.

Daniel was right in the room. With a piece of bandage in his mouth, he was trying to change the dressings by

himself. The moment Sherry opened the door, Daniel looked upward to look at her eyes squarely.

The two were both stunned.

Sherry fixed her eyes on him unconsciously. On his body, one wound was interwoven with another. New wounds and

large area of bruises can be easily visible.

It was the first time for Sherry to see those wounds clearly under light.

Daniel spitted the bandage out of his mouth. He quickly put on his clothes and said softly, “Did I scare you?”

Sherry shook her head and closed the door behind her, “Are you trying to change the dressing on your own?”

Daniel nodded, “What’s up?”

Sherry was speechless.

She found herself unable to answer the question.

Sherry looked around and said, “Nothing happened. I’m just taking a look around. It’s really a big room.”

Daniel said, “If you like it, I can exchange my room with you.”

Sherry was speechless.

Was his brain also injured?

She didn’t want to take his joke seriously and walked over to him to take off his clothes.

Daniel dodged and held her wrist in hand unconsciously. A sense of surprise welled up in her eyes and his Adam’s

apple jumped a bit, “May be next time. It will hurt tonight.”

She was flushed a bit, “I just want to take a look at your wounds. I didn’t mean …”

Daniel let her hand go and said, “Oh.”

“You got such a dirty mind, boy,” Sherry reached out to get the medicine and bandage nearby, “Hurry up. I will

change dressing for you.”

Without a word, Daniel quickly took off his shirt.

Sherry turned back to find a strong and naked body of a man, which made her face all the more red.

She pretended to be serious, “Just turn back. I will handle the wounds on your back first.”

After he turned back, Sherry sprayed the medicine onto the bruise near his shoulder and then stroked the bruise

gently to spread the medicine.

After a while, she felt her palm quite hot.

Apart from that one near his shoulder, there were also other bruises on his back.

The scars on his back also appeared before her eyes.

Sherry murmured, “Thank you for what you have done.”

“For what?”

“It’s just … Channing is like a younger brother of mine. You got wounded for him. I must thank you for that.”

Daniel smiled warmly, “It’s confusing for me that you all come to thank me for that.”

Sherry was bewildered by his words, “We should thank you for that, shouldn’t we?”

Daniel turned back suddenly, which scared Sherry a bit. She said immediately, “What … what are you doing? I

haven’t finished yet.”

Facing her squarely, he pointed at the bleeding wound on his chest, “Mind you, you should handle this first.

Otherwise, I will die.”

The cut was actually not large and only two to three centimeters deep. But it was quite scary anyway since it was

covered all over with dry blood.

Sherry nodded repeatedly and put the spray bottle aside. Then she took the medicine which was used to stop

bleeding and some cotton swabs. She bent over to apply the medicine on his cut. Then she frowned and said, “Is

that made by a knife?”

Daniel leant aback a bit and put his hands on the bed to support him. With his eyes fixed on her, he mumbled,

“Yep.”

Sherry blew the cut softly to ease his pain while changing dressing for him. That made her feel quite discomfortable

as if it were she who get wounded.

After she finished, Sherry found the piece of bandage he spitted onto the bed and gradually wrapped his cut with it.

Sherry said, “What did the doctor say to you? You should not make the cut wet and …”

Daniel opened his mouth slowly, “The doctor said I was fine. I’m getting used to it. If I end up lying in the hospital

like Chassell, it’s okay for me either.”

Sherry was speechless.

Maybe his brain was injured too.

Having had the cut taped up, Sherry said, “When you get to the hospital to have a reexamination, you should also

check if your brain is alright. Maybe it was injured too.”

Before she stood up, Daniel quickly held by her waist.

His lips touched hers promptly before Sherry could do anything.

Since he was covered all over by wounds, Sherry couldn’t find a place on him to place her hands on to stop

him.
