Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 918: Then She Would Be Disappointed

Three days later, Elaine and Archer left City N together.

When she went out with her luggage, her face was full of reluctance, she walked over and hugged Stella and said,

“I will come to visit you again soon.”

Stella smiled and patted her back, “I'll wait for you, go back and listen to the words of your father and great-

grandfather.”

Elaine nodded slightly, “I will.”

Then Stella said, “Goodbye, be careful on the road.”

Elaine pulled the suitcase and turned to look back repeatedly at every step saying goodbye.

Archer grabbed her arm, “Hurry up, we'll be back in a few days.”

Elaine got into the car with him carrying a pouting mouth.

After they went away, Clarence hugged Stella's hand, “Go upstairs to sleep.”

Stella said as she walked, “I don't know what was the situation with Sherry.”

She was afraid that she would accidentally spill the beans so she didn't contact her very much.

Clarence heard the words and did not speak. His thin lips pursed slightly.

Seeing that his expression was slightly different, Stella turned around and asked, “What's wrong?”

Clarence retracted his thoughts and said, “It's something about the business.”

In the bedroom, he handed the pajamas to her and said, “Go wash first and I'll make a call.”

Stella nodded and went into the bathroom with her clothes.

Clarence walked to the balcony and dialed Daniel's number.

In Ottawa, it was exactly eight in the morning.

Soon, Daniel connected the phone.

He said indifferently, “Didn't you say it's very simple?”

It had been three days so far, and no news had come yet.

Daniel was speechless.

He laughed nervously, “Joseph's connections here are complicated. | already have specific news about him, and it

should take two days at most.”

He said, “Two days at most.”

After Archer returned to Riverside City, he had to wait for the data materials from Amanda, and there was no more

time.

After hanging up the phone, when he turned around, he saw Stella standing at the bathroom door.

He walked towards her and asked, “What's wrong?”

Stella answered, “I forgot to take something.

After a pause, she said again, “Is the company's business not good?”

Clarence said, “It's okay, they will handle it.”

Saying that, he rubbed her head, “You don't have to worry about this, just go and wash.”

Stella was still a little worried, “If you encounter something that can't be solved, you must tell me, we will find a

solution together, and don't do it alone.”

Hearing this, he smiled and said, “I know.”

When she saw that the chill between his brows eased slightly, a smile appeared on her face, and she turned around

and entered the bathroom.

After the sound of water came from inside, Clarence went downstairs to warm her up a glass of milk, and then

went up with some snacks.

Stella came out of the shower, took the milk from his hand, and licked her lips, “Do you think Elaine can get the

answer she wants when she goes back this time?”

Clarence stretched out his fingers to wipe the remaining milk stains on her lips, and said in a low voice, “Huh?”

“I mean, about Darnell...”

“If she was going back to see him, then she would be disappointed.”

Stella was stunned, “What do you mean?”

He answered, “Darnell has arrived in City N this morning.”

Stella was confused and speechless.

She didn't quite understand, “What is he doing here? It's not because of hiding from her, right?”

Clarence withdrew his hand, “Of course not.”

He said, “The Conrad Group will hold a cruise reception on the New Coast project in about a week and people from

the business community are cordially invited to attend.”

They finally landed in Riverside City after a few hours.

Compared with City N, the weather in Riverside City is more humid and colder. Even in the cold wave, it is only

drizzling with fine rain, without a trace of snow.

After getting off the plane, Archer sent Elaine home and he went to the laboratory directly.

As soon as she got home, she rushed in, “Great-grandpa, Dad, I'm back!”

Hilbert came out tremblingly with a cane, and said with a smile, “You are back. Is this trip fun?”

Elaine felt that the great grandfather seemed to be much older and kinder than before only after just a few days.

At this time, Franklin came out from the inside and said with a straight face, “After arriving in City N, I haven't got a

single

phone call from you. I think you are indulged in pleasure and forget your home. You should not come back and live

there in the future.”

Elaine took Hilbert's arm and made a face at her father, “Fine! I also want to live there. It's fun there, and it's still

snowing.”

As she said that, she said to Hilbert again, “Great-grandpa, when I buy a house there, I will take you to live there

with me.”

Hilbert smiled and sat on the sofa, “I am too old to move around anymore.

And I don't have much time left.”

“You are saying nonsense again. No, you are so healthy now.”

Franklin sat opposite them and said seriously, “Elaine, you are no longer a child. You have to learn to accept reality,

you can't always live in your own world.”

SL”

Then Hilbert said, “Okay, she just went home. Stop saying that. Life and death lie in the lap of the gods, which is

common sense.”

He looked at Elaine and said, “Go back to your room to have a rest.”

Someone immediately stepped forward and carried her suitcase upstairs.

She went back to the room, changed her clothes, and went downstairs with the gifts she bought for them.

When she reached the stairs, she heard that they were talking something vaguely about Darnell.”

Then she couldn't hear it.

She ran off, and their conversation came to an abrupt end.

After Elaine gave them the gifts separately, she poured water for them and asked, “I was just hearing you guys

talking about Darnell, what happened to him?”

Franklin said, “Nothing.”

Elaine pouted, “Forget it, I'm going to find him tomorrow anyway.”

Then Franklin turned to be unhappy, “I'm asking you to stay away from him.”

Elaine retorted with reason, “That's not what you said when you asked me to marry him. Why are you still meeting

with him?”

“You!”

Compared to Franklin, Hilbert drank the water and said calmly, “What are you going to do with him?”

Elaine stammered in reply, “I went to City N and brought him a gift. I want to give it to him.”

Hilbert said, “Then you'll have to wait a while longer. He just left this morning. I don't know when he will come

back."
