Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

After a long time, Channing spoke, “She’s very beautiful.”

Winnie was waiting for his next words, but he did not go on to say anything for a long time.

She asked, “That's it?”

“Yes,” Channing looked at her seriously, “You should have felt it, I’m a superficial person.”

Winnie was speechless.

He was not superficial, but perfunctory.

Winnie opened her mouth and just as she was about to say something, the car stopped at the entrance of Conrad

Tower.

Channing got up and opened the car door, “I’ll leave first, goodbye.”

Winnie waved at him, “Bye.”

After the car door was closed, Channing walked towards Conrad Tower.

Winnie was leaning on the car window and looking at his back. She slowly took her eyes off him and spoke to the

driver, “Let’s go.”

Meanwhile, in Conrad Tower.

Nathan brought in a pile of documents, “Mr. Conrad, it’s all here.”

Clarence asked, “Has the board of directors been notified?”

“Yes. However, there have been turbulences within Conrad Group. They should know this well.”

“Good,” Clarence asked, “Has Justin been contacted?”

“Yes, but Young Master Justin said that he had recently found a doctor for the chairman and the treatment had a

preliminary good outcome and he intended to come back after some more time.”

Clarence put down his pen and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with one hand in his pocket, looking out at the

scenery, “You go to Canada now and deal with it properly before the board meeting.”

Nathan said, “But if it’s in vain even after I go, then…”

“He’ll come back.”

Nathan nodded, “Alright.”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Shortly after Nathan left, Channing opened the door of the president’s office.

Clarence turned his head, “Why are you here.”

“I’m just taking a look around.”

Clarence strode to the sofa and sat on it, “Did you tell your elder sister everything?”

Channing knew what he was asking about and nodded.

Clarence said, “Maxwell is watching Chassell. Nothing will happen again, So, don’t worry about it.”

Pausing for a moment, Channing replied, “Thanks.”

Clarence raised his eyebrows slightly, “Could you try addressing me brother-in-law once?”

Channing was speechless.

He said, “I’m leaving now.”

Clarence got up, “You can stay as long as you want. I’m going back.”

Hearing his words, Channing sat there, not moving.

Clarence took his suit and left straight away.

Channing sat in the office for half an hour. He got up and went downstairs after making sure Winnie should have

arrived home.

…

On Monday, after taking some modelling pictures with Sherry, Stella returned to the office and intended to modify

the recent design again.

Not long after she sat down, she heard a sudden buzz outside.

Stella put down the pen. When she was about to go out to take a look, there was a knock on the office door. Elaine

brought her a bag, “Stella, this is for you.”

Although Sherry often ordered afternoon tea for everyone, judging by the logo on the paper bag, it was obviously

beyond what they could afford.

Elaine then added, “My uncle came to see me and bought me a lot of food. Stella, what else do you want, I’ll bring

it in for you.”

Stella slightly froze, “Your uncle is here?”

“Yes.” While saying that, Elaine added, “However, I told him that you were busy with work so he won’t come in and

disturb you.”

Stella glanced at the drawings behind her and then looked at the paper bag on the table, “I’m done with my work.

Let’s go out together.”

In the studio, a group of young women was surrounding Caesar and taking turn to ask him questions. It was

perhaps because they were curious about Elaine’s rich and gentlemanly uncle who suddenly appeared.

Caesar had always been smiling and responding with courtesy and decorum.

Seeing them come out, he nodded slightly at Stella, “Ms. Radomil.”

“Mr. James.”

At this time, customers came into the studio and the group of young women dispersed at once. Elaine also returned

to her post. She looked more reliable and mature now.

Stella spoke, “Mr. James, this way please.”

After reaching the lounge, Stella asked, “What would Mr. James like to drink?”

“Tea.”

Stella checked the cabinet, “Sorry, we only have this kind of teabag here. Is oolong tea okay for you?”

Caesar responded, “Yes.”

Stella added hot water, turned around and put it in front of him.

Caesar said, “Thank you.”

Stella responded, “I’m the one who should thank Mr. James. You specifically come here and have brought so much

food.”

“No problem, Ms. Radomil. I’m here to see Elaine. She’s young and doesn’t know what is the thing that she should

and shouldn’t do. I’m here to treat her colleagues to some food in case she doesn’t speak politely and offends

them. So, they may do me a favour and won’t bother with Elaine.”

“Your concern is unnecessary, Mr. James. Elaine gets along with them very well here.”

Caesar smiled and pushed his glasses with his hand, “Really? If that’s the case, I’m not worried anymore.”

After saying that, Caesar took out a box from his pocket, put it on the coffee table and pushed it towards Stella, “By

the way, last time I saw that Ms. Radomil quite liked this thing so I bought it. Take a look, Ms. Radomil.”

Hearing this, Stella froze. She picked up the box in front of her and it was the ring she saw at the jewelry exhibition.

Astounded, Stella asked, “Aren’t the things at the jewelry exhibition not for sale to the public?”

“Originally it was, but I discussed it with the person in charge of the exhibition and he decided to sell it to me

eventually. After all, doing Ms. Radomil a favor is much more valuable than this ring itself.”

Chassell was now lying in the hospital so he was undoubtedly not the one who wanted to do her a favor. Therefore,

the person must be Caesar.

Stella put down the ring box, “I don’t quite get what Mr. James means.”

“Well. I originally had a project that was under negotiation with Mr. Barret but two days ago he was suddenly

hospitalized and the deal was put on hold indefinitely. I thought that my trip to City N couldn’t be futile. I heard that

Conrad Group had a project in New Coast and may I know if I have the honor to be involved in it?”

Stella smiled, “Mr. James may have misunderstood. This is a jewelry studio. I don’t know much about Conrad Group

nor the project in New Coast. It isn’t my specialty either.”

Caesar pushed the frame and smiled, “I was being abrupt, please don’t mind, Ms. Radomil.”

“I definitely won’t, Mr. James.”

Caesar got up, “Since so, I’m leaving now. Just accept this ring as a little token of my appreciation on our first

meeting, Ms. Radomil. After all, in terms of certain origins, we can be considered family.”

Stella knew that he was referring to the relationship in Riverside City.

Stella also got up, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. James. However, there is no need to give me such a gift. It’s

too expensive. How much is this ring, I’ll transfer the money back to you.”

Caesar said, “How about this, just treat it as a gift from me to Elaine. Before she gets married, Ms. Radomil will

keep it for her, is that okay?”
