Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

On the other side…

Since Mr. Jason was hospitalized, Rebecca and her mother basically did not return to their house. Although Rebecca

had specially arranged a maid to deliver meals, Phoebe remained vigilant at all times.

She had secretly inquired about the matter and found out that Stella did not met a car accident at all.

Despite of this, Clarence’s people were still looking for her. She took the jewelries she got from Aurora and escaped

from place to place. Finally, she arrived at the Jason family’s house without alerting anyone.

The good thing was that she did not have any contact with the Jason family for quite a long time already. Plus, the

Jason family was facing difficulties and could not even secure themselves. Hence, Clarence did not suspect that she

would stay with the Jason family.

However, staying here was not a long-term solution.

She had to find a way to get the Jason family to send her out of the country. Now that Horace was in Switzerland,

the Jason family must have a way to send her away without being discovered by Clarence.

Thinking of this, Phoebe called Rebecca, but no one answered the call.

Phoebe frowned, and a sense of irritation rose in her heart.

She could not go out now, and she did not know how Mr. Jason’s condition in the hospital was right now.

If Rebecca wanted to avoid her on purpose, she might deliberately drag the time and would not come back at all.

When the sky darkened, footsteps came from outside the door.

But unlike before, these footsteps sounded steady and strong. It was obviously a man.

Phoebe grasped the fruit knife in her hand tightly and looked at the door warily.

Soon, the door was opened, and the slender figure of the man appeared in her sight.

When Phoebe saw his face, she frowned and said, “It’s you.”

After a pause, he said, “Why are you here? Uh, when did you come back?”

Horace stood at the door and looked at her quietly. His gaze gradually moved downwards and stopped on the fruit

knife in her hand. “Ms. Steward, since you came and become the guest of the Jason’s family, I must serve you

personally.”

Hearing this, Phoebe remained alert. She looked at him coldly and said, “Since your sister told you that I’m staying

here, then you should know the reason behind this. If those things about her are leaked to the public, it will bring

great impact to the Jason family and Clarence will not her go too.”

Horace smiled faintly, “Since you said so, I want to ask you a question. My sister and Stella have never talked to

each other before, how did she know that Stella was pregnant?”

“Annie told her.”

“Is that so?” Horace continued, “How did Annie know?”

Phoebe remained silent and her expression got colder.

“I’m sure that you know who caused this matter. Before you did these things, didn’t you think that you will be in this

kind of situation today?”

Phoebe snickered, “I was framed by Stella for being in this situation today. It wasn’t enough for her to only harm

me, she even harmed the Steward family! Can’t you see the picture? That woman used tricks to marry Clarence a

few years ago, and now she is using tricks to slander me and my father. All of you are tricked by her but you never

realized. Someday, the truth will be revealed!”

Horace spoke in an icy tone, “You claimed that you are slandered. But did Stella force you to do all these things?”

“I…”

Phoebe was speechless for a moment. After a pause, she said coldly, “I just want her to reveal her true side.”

“Then you sent someone to do something in her, trying to create a car accident, so that she would die in an

accident. You did this because you wanted to reveal her true side?”

“That’s what she deserved! She took everything that belonged to me. She even made the Steward Group become

what it is today. I just didn’t expect that she didn’t actually get in that car.”

Horace looked at her, he spoke in an emotionless tone, “Ms. Steward, you should be clear that no matter what, you

have to pay the price for what you have done.”

Phoebe laughed and said, “Fine, I will pay for what I did. What about your elder sister? Should she also pay for what

she did?”

“Of course.”

Hearing these words, the smile on Phoebe’s face fainted a little.

Horace took a few steps backwards and the lights outside was turned on.

Only then did Phoebe realize that there were several people standing in the garden.

Among them, Clarence was there too.

Clarence stood in the dark, and his voice was tinged with cool chills, “Tell me, what did Stella take from you? Me?”

In an instant, Phoebe’s expression become as ugly as it could be.

Clarence added, “If you have some self-awareness, you should know clearly that even without Stella, I still wouldn’t

be attracted by you.”

He continued slowly, “So, I’m quite curious that what kind of emotion you’re in when you say these words.”

These words seemed to agitate Phoebe completely. She screamed, “You are just an illegitimate child! You have no

right to look down on me! I’m the one who is not attracted by you!”

Clarence smiled instead of anger, “I have to remind you one thing. You father, Charles, did not get married and had

children. You’re just an illegitimate daughter he took home when he had no choice. To say the least, it was you who

snatched Stella’s things. You took her identity and lived with it for twenty years.”

“You’re talking nonsense!”

When he saw her response, Clarence did not intend to continue dwelling with her. He tilt his head and said, “Mr.

Jonathan, you should have heard the crime she confessed just now.”

After saying that, Clarence turned around and left.

Before Phoebe could react, she saw several people in police uniforms walking towards her.

Her face turned pale instantly, and as she struggled, the fruit knife in her hand cut her cheeks. Blood smeared over

half of her face.

In the backyard, only Phoebe’s screams were heard.

After Clarence stepped out if the Jason family’s house, he turned his head and looked at the man behind him. He

said indifferently, “Why are you following me? Are you trying to tell me that I need to thank you for this?”

Without waiting for Horace to answer, Clarence continued, “You have hidden Phoebe for so long, I am already

generous enough for not holding anyone accountable.”

Horace said, “I will convey my apologies to Stella on behalf of my sister.”

Clarence said, “I will pass your message to her, you don’t have to go and find her.”

After a few seconds, Horace laughed suddenly.

Clarence frowned unhappily, “What are you laughing at?”

“I just didn’t expect that you’ll be so afraid of me seeing Stella. This shows that you have no confidence in the

relationship between both of you.”

Clarence, “Heh.”

Horace continued, “Mr. Conrad, if you understand Stella’s personality, you should know what kind of person she is.

She will only give one chance to some specific things, so I hope that you’ll cherish it.”

Clarence narrowed his eyes and said nothing.

“I have to go to the hospital now. Goodbye, Mr. Conrad.”
