Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

When Stella arrived at the studio, it was almost noon.

Just after she arrived, she saw Sherry resting her head on the checkout counter. Sherry was letting out one sigh

after another.

Stella walked up to her and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”

Sherry lifted her head and looked at her with lifeless eyes, “There is nothing wrong. I am just feeling quite tired.”

Stella said, “Do you want to go home and get some rest? There is not much work to do today.”

“There is no need for that. I am just mentally exhausted.”

After listening to Sherry, Stella raised her brows and pulled Sherry to the pantry, “Daniel met you yesterday, didn’t

he?”

Sherry nodded and let out a sigh.

Stella asked, “What did he say to you?”

“Nothing much. He just said some inexplicable things. He insisted on asking me whether I was getting married. I

asked him if he was going to give me money as a wedding gift, but he didn’t say anything. He was clearly joking

with me. Since he was not giving me money as a wedding gift, my marital status had nothing to do with him.”

Stella didn’t reply to her words.

She remained silent for a while and then said, “After that, what happened?”

“After that, nothing happened. I didn’t want to care about him and went home.”

Stella said, “How about the man who you met on a blind date?”

“He is quite nice. His qualities have exceeded my expectations. He is a nice guy, and we can have a good chat. He

has even asked me out for a movie.”

“You agreed?”

“He said that we should first keep in touch and try it out. It is fine with me, so we will first try it out.”

Stella pursed her lips and didn’t say anything else.

She initially wanted to help Daniel out.

However, based on the current situation, it seemed that there was a little effect, but the effect was not significant

enough to change the situation.

Moreover, she originally hoped that Sherry could find her own happiness. Since Sherry thought that the man who

she met on the blind date was quite nice, they should keep in touch.

Sherry yawned and turned around. She was brewing some coffee, “How about you? Didn’t you talk to Daniel about

the matter regarding the Steward Group? What did he say?”

After listening to Sherry, Stella leaned on the wall beside her and gave a chuckle, “His words are similar to yours.”

“You see, you can just follow our…my advice. Don’t go to the Steward Group. You also don’t bother yourself with

this matter. The state of the Steward Group has nothing to do with you. We should just live our normal lives in

peace.”

Stella said, “Sherry, I have already made my decision.”

While drinking her ice coffee that she brewed just now, Sherry said, “You believe in me. This decision will not be

wrong. You…”

“I have decided to go to the Steward Group.”

Sherry couldn’t help but to be deeply shocked. She almost spat out the coffee in her mouth.

After that, Sherry looked at Stella incredulously and doubted that she had misheard Stella, “What?”

Stella repeated her words, “I have decided to go to the Steward Group.”

“Why? Didn’t we agree on this yesterday? That person also told you to not go to the Steward Group.”

Stella looked out the window and said slowly, “Yesterday, I was just considering this matter. The current situation of

the Steward Group is indeed very complicated. If I take control of the Steward Group, I will not gain any benefits.

Instead, I will be used by those people who have ulterior motives.”

“Then, you…”

“I was initially quite hesitant. But when I went to the Conrad Group yesterday, I found out that Clarence has been

dealing with the problems that have arisen in the Steward Group. I thought that since he can deal with the

problems, why should I run away from them? In other words, this is something I should have done.”

She didn’t know when everyone started to protect her and take care of her. All of them wanted to keep her out of

this crisis.

However, there were actually a lot of things that could not be avoided. What was coming would eventually come.

Due to Lyndon, the Steward Group was in a mess and all of the staff were unmotivated. Only a true member of the

Steward family could step in to resolve everything properly so that the Steward Group would have breathing space

and start all over again.

Since he was never willing to step in, she was the only person left.

Sherry couldn’t help but frown, “But you are not responsible for the mess in the Steward Group. Lyndon and

Phoebe, the father and daughter who put on an act, should be held accountable!”

Stella shook her head, “It is not the time to determine who exactly should be held accountable. Based on the

current situation, the problems that have been brought about by the Steward Group are already affecting a lot of

people. If the situation is not under control in time, more people will be involved.”

After listening to Stella, Sherry didn’t know what to say.

These days, whenever she took a look at her friends’ online posts, she often saw that her friends’ companies had

been dismissing employees and some companies even went bankrupt.

All of these were effects brought about by the Steward Group.

After some time, Sherry spoke in a tentative tone, “Then, when are you going to the Steward Group?”

“I guess I will go to the Steward Group tomorrow.”

“Okay. You don’t need to worry about the studio anyway. I will take care of it. But…don’t you need to prepare for

the fashion week?”

Stella replied, “Actually, I am not good at company management. Yesterday, two people came and talked to me. I

guess that they only want me to show up. I will know the specific details when I go to the Steward Group tomorrow.

You can rest assured. I will not delay the preparations for the fashion week.”

After all, that was her dream.

Sherry patted her on the shoulder, “Since you have made the decision, you should do your best. I will always be

your strong supporter. Go for it!”

Stella laughed, “I will prefer that you are able to find your own happiness.”

Sherry shrugged her shoulders and said unconcernedly, “As long as I am rich, I am not afraid because I can buy my

own happiness.”

Stella didn’t reply to her words.

She said unhappily, “Why did you learn Clarence’s way of doing things?”

Sherry replied, “It is totally different. When Mr. Conrad says that he is rich, he is really rich. I was just bragging.”

……

At noon, Stella and Sherry went out to lunch.

Just when they returned to the studio, the girl who was at the front counter said, “Stella, Sherry, Daniel is here.”

Sherry couldn’t think of a reply.

‘He couldn’t have come to give me money as a wedding gift, could he?’

Before she could speak, the girl then said, “There is also another visitor.”

Stella asked, “Who is the other visitor?”

“I don’t know his name. He has come here with Daniel.”

“Did he come before?”

“He seemed to have come here once with Mr. Conrad a long time ago. I don’t remember it well, but I think that the

visitor should be him.”

Stella knew the identity of the visitor and slightly pursed her lips, “I got it. Are they in the lounge?”

The girl nodded, “Yes. They have arrived half an hour ago.”

Stella lowered her head and stood there motionless.

Sherry spoke under her breath, “What’s wrong? Who is the visitor?”

“He should be…William.”

Sherry was confused, “Isn’t he Clarence’s business partner? Why has he come here with Daniel? I guess that he

does a wide range of businesses.”

Stella laughed silently and didn’t know what to say.

Logically speaking, she should have immediately gone in and greeted them.

For some reason, she couldn’t take a step forward.

Sherry sensed Stella’s hesitation and spoke, “If you don’t want to meet them, I can ask them to leave?”

Stella gently shook her head, “There is no need for that.”

She recollected herself and regained her spirits.

Before she entered the lounge, Stella said, “Sherry, help me to prepare two glasses of water and bring them to the

lounge.”

Sherry acknowledged her words, “Sure.”
