Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

When she managed to soothe Elaine's emotions, Sherry took Elaine back to the Steward's Mansion.

While arriving at the door, Elaine saw Daniel getting out and gave Sherry a look of “I won’t be the third wheel” then

ran away.

Daniel was confused, “What’s wrong with her?”

Sherry answered sheepishly, “No…nothing. Where are you going? It’s so dark.”

“I wanna see Chassell Barret.” Daniel paused, “do you want to come with me?”

Sherry was surprised by his suggestion, “O...okay.”

Chassell Barret still didn’t wake up, but was out of danger already.

Sherry stood at the door and had a look inside. Then she turned back to ask Daniel, “You had been guarding here

before?”

Daniel said yes and sat down in a chair, “For them, his is better dead than alive. So they make all efforts to kill him,

in order to blame his death on Channing.”

Sherry sat near him and she didn’t know what to say.

After a while, she asked, “How about Chan?”

Outside the police station, journals all left due to the effort of Cameron Thomas and William.

In contrast, the project of Conrad Group in New Coast became a trending topic.

Quite a few media raced to scoop more juicy details, or otherwise they would lag behind.

However, there was no more new information about Channing Radomil and Chassell Barret.

It couldn’t attract any more attention when nothing new was released for a long time. So the media lost interests.

The journalists who had been crowding outside hospital now all left.

Chief Hammond looked out the window and was relieved. He could finally enjoy a nice cuppa.

It was finally settled.

Thirty minutes later, William came to the police station for a bail.

Chief Hammond appointed someone to take Channing from the restroom and told them the precautions during

bail, then letting them ago.

William asked him to leave while Channing looked outside, seemingly pondering.

William looked along the line of sight of Channing and said, “Although there is only a wall between here and outside,

the wall can still separate you from the whole world if you make one big mistake.”

Channing spoke, as if talking to himself as well, “It won't happen again.”

He would spare no chance for Chassell Barret to approach Winnie again.

On the way home, William said, “I’ve been to your school. Your teacher has told me there is an opportunity for you

to study in Oxford. You have time to think about it until next Friday.”

Channing looked indifferently outside, “It’s my business.”

“But for now, if you stay in the country, it’s not good for both you and your girlfriend. You aren’t mature enough to

make a wise decision both in life and love.” William paused, “I'm not belittling you. Right now, you're at an age of

impulsiveness. Several years later, when you look back, you will find there are wiser choices that you could've

made.”

Channing closed his eyes, indicating he didn’t want to continue the conversation.

William spoke again after a while, “I’m sorry about the past 20 years. I know whatever I said doesn’t make any

difference. I'll try my best to make amends. If you have any opinions, you can tell me. If you don’t want to go

abroad, we can discuss about it. I'm only giving you suggestions, and you don’t have to follow my words. If you

don’t regret about your choices and are able to protect yourself and the ones you care about, I won’t stop you.”

Channing still made no answer. Then William also kept quiet and looked outside.

He knew there was a gap between them which couldn’t be narrowed in a few days. He couldn't rush it.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the Steward Mansion.

Stella and Clarence had been waiting for them. Stella walked to Channing and watched him closely as soon as he

got off, “Are you hurt? You got skinnier. Did you eat anything in there?”

Channing murmured, “I had. I’m fine.”

Stella finally heaved a sigh, “Let’s go in. Have dinner, take a shower then go to sleep, okay?”

Channing didn’t move but took a look inside.

Clarence gave him a side-glance, “Why are you still standing here? Shall I invite you to go in?”

Channing perceived his dissatisfaction. He then entered.

Stella stared at his back and then turned to William, “Dad, is Chan…”

William smiled, “nothing, let’s go in.”

Stella and Clarence had already had a meal. But it was embarrassing it there were only Channing and William

sitting at the dinner table.

So Stella prepared to join them. However, Clarence stopped her, “Archer James wants to see you.”

Stella was confused, “When did he say that? Why does he want to see me?”

“You recently have a poor appetite, let him check.”

Then he took her away.

There were only William and Channing in the living room.

William scanned across the food on the table and memorized what Channing like.

However, Channing intended to leave after taking only a few bites.

William said, “Your sister made all these for you. If you don’t want her to worry, have some more. You’ve heard that

she doesn’t feel well these days.”

Channing stood there for a few seconds, and then sat down again.

William continued, “It was not safe these days. Your sister and her friends all live there. I know you’re unwilling to

be here. There is a car outside. You can let the driver take you or drive the car yourself to anywhere you want after

the meal. But don't forget to keep in contact with me.”
