Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 108

When Stella came back, Sherry was the happiest person.

After Stella reported her work status and walked out of Stanford’s office, Sherry immediately pulled Stella to her office, “Stella, when did you come back? Why didn’t you tell me?

“I came back on the day before yesterday,” said Stella, “Sherry, Jeffrey Radomil was dead.”

Stella briefed what had happened to Stella, including the photos that she found in Jeffrey’s suitcase.

After listening to her, Sherry felt quite relaxed, “I’m not surprised at all. Jeffrey Radomil was a jerk. He didn’t look like a father at all, you know. No matter how bad a man is, he wouldn’t sell out his own daughter. He’s such a shameless man!” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

As she spoke, Sherry asked, “What do you plan to do now? Are you going to find your biological father?”

Stella shook her head, “Forget it.”

“Why not? Don’t you want to know what happened in the past?”

“No matter what happened, it has been so many years. I don’t think it means anything if I’ve found him.”

Sherry thought for a while and asked tentatively, “Stella, you don’t want to find him because of Chan, right?”

She knew Stella very much. For Stella, comparing with her biological father who she couldn’t recall what he looked like, her brother, with whom they relied on each other since childhood, was much more important.

Stella smiled faintly, “Not really. You’ve misunderstood. Jeffrey Radomil is dead, and finally, my life is back to peace. I just don’t want to experience anything unexpected again. Besides, if my biological father was still alive, he should come to find me. Since he hasn’t, I guess probably he has disappeared from this world already, or he married another woman and has a new family. If I went to find him, I might cause him trouble and not get what I want.”

Sherry thought about her words and found they indeed made sense. She changed the subject, “Besides this, I’m more curious about another matter.”

“What is it?”

“Are you going to remarry Clarence Conrad?”

Stella was choked up by her question.

Sherry asked seriously, “Don’t skip my question. After you’ve told me what happened in another town last time, I kept thinking about it. Even if Clarence Conrad would like you, a wretched man like him wouldn’t treat you truly. Look at Vivian Sean. Back then, there were so many rumors and a lot of people thought that she was marrying Clarence Conrad. What did it end up to? Nothing! I guess the wretched man just like your appearance, and he hasn’t lost his interest in you yet. All driven by his lust.”

Stella’s mouth corners twitched. After a long while, she said, “I know.”

Even if Sherry didn’t remind her, Stella was quite clear. Suddenly Clarence declared that he liked her probably because he had been used to having her by his side quietly. After all, she was always a dutiful good wife.

When she left the position of Mrs. Conrad and began her own life, she didn’t do things obediently. On the contrary, he felt quite interested and surprised. A typical wretched man was just like that, wasn’t he?

Besides, he also admitted that they had been married for three years and they had sex countless times. If he would fall in love with her truly, it could have happened a long time ago.

Hence, Stella had a clear estimation of herself on this point.

Sherry added, “By the way, Stella, you are back now. How about I move to your apartment? I plan to sell my apartment. As soon as I go home, I will recall that Liam Keith used to stay there, which disgusts me a lot.”

Stella put on a wry smile, letting out hollow laughter.

Sherry looked at her in confusion.

Stella rubbed her neck awkwardly, “You can directly move in. I’m not staying there.”

“What? Where are you staying now? Did you rent a new apartment?”

Stella knew that she couldn’t hide it from her, so she told Sherry bluntly.

Sherry was speechless.

After a while, she said seriously, “Stella, for the sake of our years of friendship, if you truly reconcile with that wretched... Mr. Conrad, please don’t tell him that I’ve cursed him, leaving me a way to live!”

...

When Stella and Sherry walked out of Sherry’s office, they happened to meet Modesty, who just received a client for couture jewelry.

Sherry and Modesty couldn’t get along at all. When they met each other, they could easily get into fights, so they didn’t even try to maintain their relationship as coworkers.

When they brushed past each other, they heard a woman’s clear and indifferent voice, “Wait a minute.”

The client looked back over at Stella, “Excuse me, Miss. Are you also a designer of SG Jewelry Magazine? If not mistaken, you must be the designer of the ‘Puppy Love’ Series, Ms. Radomil, right?”

Stella nodded at her slightly, “Yes. Nice to meet you, Ma’am.”

“I never met you when I came to SG Jewelry Magazine several times. I thought you’ve resigned.”

Stella answered politely, “Well, I had some personal errands to deal with earlier, so I took a few days off.”

Watching the scene, Modesty hurriedly walked up to them and said, “Excuse me, Miss Steward. We...”

Phoebe smiled and interrupted her, “It’s alright. No hurry. I’m not quite busy today, anyway.”

As she spoke, she turned to Stella and continued, “Ms. Radomil, I like the ‘Puppy Love’ Series you designed very much. Recently, I have a friend how’s getting married. She’s younger than me. I want to give her a wedding gift. May I ask you to design for her, please?”

Modesty bit her lower lip, “Miss Steward, but...”

“Miss Parker, I won’t change our agreed design. This friend of mine is quite important to me. Besides, I can send her as many gifts as I want, can’t I?”

Since Phoebe said so, Modesty couldn’t find another excuse. She wasn’t reluctantly though. It was quite hard for her to get this important client, and she wasn’t willing to share her with Stella so easily.

After finishing her words to Modesty, Phoebe looked over at Stella and asked in a gentle voice, “Would you like to do it, Ms. Radomil?”

Before Stella answered, Sherry chimed in, “Of course. Of course. Miss Steward, you do have good taste. Ms. Radomil is the first contracted jewelry designer in our company. The ‘Puppy Love’ Series is always the high demanded design in the market, always short in supply. You’ve made the wisest decision to ask her to design the jewelry for your friend.”

With a smile, Phoebe said, “Certainly. I heard that Ms. Radomil won the first prize in the Young Designers’ Contest three years ago. I’m sure my friend would like the wedding gift designed by Ms. Radomil very much.”

Stella asked, “Miss Steward, do you have a preferred style?”

“Well, how about like this? Let’s find a place to sit down and talk.” While she spoke, Phoebe seemed to recall Modesty was there, “By the way, Miss Parker. Please use the previous version of your design. I like it a lot.”

After a while, Modesty nodded stiffly in agreement.

Phoebe was obviously not happy with that version of the design. She deliberately came to the company in person today for updating the design.

However, judging from Phoebe’s behaviors, Modesty didn’t think her design was important at all.

In her opinion, Phoebe had chosen Stella already. The reason why Phoebe would still use her design was just to keep her dignity.

Thinking of that, Modesty clenched her fists deeply. Her fingernails sank into the flesh of her palms.
