Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

After going back to the hotel, Clarence contacted someone in Riverside City.

In London, it was 2 to 3 p.m. at this time. While in Riverside City, it was already late at night.

Through the video call, Stella saw Noah lying in the crib and sleeping soundly, completely undisturbed by everything

that was happening outside.

Dolores and Archer were also at the side.

This place was the mansion of Dolores’s mother. Since her mother married Bancroft, fifty or sixty years had passed

so far. The mansion was almost deserted.

With Bancroft’s death, no one in the James family knew this place.

When Clarence investigated Dolores’s past in Riverside City, he found this mansion. Therefore, the people he sent

over there were staying in this place.

After the James family encountered the accident this time, Darnell became the main suspect.

Archer quickly sensed the crisis and when he was just about to evacuate with the people in the entire lab, he met

Clarence’s men and they were directly brought here.

Dolores was picked up from the James’ Mansion and she arrived almost simultaneously with them.

When the news of the death of several family elders spread and those people intended to take this opportunity to

make use of this matter, the lab and place where Dolores stayed were already empty.

Seeing that they were all fine, Stella was relieved. As it was late at night at the other end, she hung up the phone

after saying only a few sentences.

Clarence asked, “Are you relieved now?”

Stella looked at him, “Did you foresee that something would happen? If it had been slightly slower, it might have…”

Clarence replied lightly, “Riverside City isn’t peaceful. Whether or not Darnell is there, dangers may happen at any

time. Similar things have happened once, I absolutely won’t let it happen again.”

Stella lowered her head and smiled.

Clarence was indeed more thoughtful and meticulous than her.

After a while, she said, “What about Darnell, how is he now? Since such a serious incident has happened, the James

family won’t easily…”

“Don’t worry, he’s fine.”

Stella kept silent for a while and said, “Are we going back to City N tomorrow night?”

Clarence said yes.

“What about Daniel? If he was really taken away by Lyndon, then now he is…”

In peril.

Clarence held her hand, “Don’t worry, since Lyndon chose to take him away, it indicates that Daniel still has a use to

him. Before he gets what he wants, Daniel is always his bargaining chip, so he won’t kill him.”

Stella gently pursed her lips, “But even so, Daniel is still in a very dangerous situation. I don’t know…how to tell

Sherry.”

“These things are unexpected. No one would want to see such an outcome, so you don’t have to blame yourself for

it. If she asks, you can just tell the truth. If she doesn’t, you can choose not to say anything.”

Stella lowered her head and did not reply.

Clarence stroke her hair, “Leave it for now. You’ve come to London for almost half a month but you stay in the

hospital every day. Do you want me to take you out for a walk?”

…

The next day, Sherry and Elaine arrived at the studio as usual.

After Channing dropped them off, he intended to leave.

Sherry called him, “Chan, where are you going?”

Channing replied, “Shooting. Today is the last episode and there are also promotional photos and materials to be

shot.”

Sherry nodded, “Okay, keep in touch at all times. You should be careful.”

“Okay, Maxwell is right outside. Just call him if you guys need anything.”

After Channing left, Elaine changed into her uniform and began to work in earnest.

Sherry walked to Stella’s office, leant on the desk and looked out the window in a daze.

She had not contacted Daniel for over a month.

Sherry originally did not think so much about it and felt that Daniel might just be busy and she should not always

disturb him.

But after experiencing a tense and frightening night yesterday, the uneasiness in her heart was instantly magnified

to the point that she could not control at all.

After thinking for a long time, Sherry took out her phone and dialled Emmett’s number.

After she got through, she felt him out softly, “Emmett, are you busy?”

Emmett hesitated for a while before responding, “Not really. What's the matter?”

“No, no, no, nothing important. I just want to ask if Daniel contacted you recently, I…I have something to tell him

but I haven’t been able to contact him.”

There was no sound coming from the person on the other end of the phone.

Sherry could not help but grip the phone tighter and even slowed down her breath, “Is…something wrong with

him?”

Emmett then answered, “No, the company in London has a lot of matters to be handled so he doesn’t really have

time. I often can’t get in touch with him either.”

Hearing this, Sherry heaved a sigh of relief and was glad that nothing happened to him.

Emmett added, “Sherry, Daniel may not be able to return for the time being. If you need any help, feel free to tell

me.”

Sherry smiled, “Thank you. I just go to the studio and go back home every day so there is nothing that needs help.

If there is, I won’t hesitate to call you.”

After chatting with Emmett for a while, Sherry hung up the phone and let out a long breath.

Although she heard from Emmett that Daniel was busy dealing with the matters in the company, for some reason,

she still could not be totally relieved.

Sherry could not help but put her hand on the belly. The little one inside her was three to four months old. She could

feel his existence more clearly.

Sherry was low-spirited for the entire day and she had nothing to do in the studio.

Fortunately, the new picture had been shot last night and she just needed to hand it over to the post-production

staff.

Just as she was walking back and forth in the studio, a figure appeared at the door.

Caesar scurried to Elaine, “Elaine, are you okay?”

Elaine was a bit bewildered and subconsciously said, “I’m fine… Uncle, what’s wrong?”

Caesar took off his glasses and rubbed his brow, “I heard something happened to the James family and someone

would hurt you, I’m afraid that you…But anyway, it’s good to see that you’re alright.”

Elaine did not get it, “Why would someone hurt me?”

Caesar raised his eyes and saw that the studio was a bit crowded. So, he pulled Elaine to the pantry on the side and

whispered, “Have you forgotten that you're engaged to Darnell?”

Upon hearing this, Elaine was completely dumbstruck.

Oh, how could she have forgotten about this matter?

Caesar continued saying, “Now everyone in the James family can’t find Darnell, so they naturally regard his escape

as an admission of guilt of murdering the family elders. And since you’re Darnell’s fiancée, inevitably they may vent

their anger on you.”

Elaine’s entire face turned red, “But…but…”

“I know that this marriage is not what you want but those elders were killed tragically. The James family is now in

turmoil and some people want to fish in troubled water and take advantage of the issue. Thus, you’re their biggest

target.”
