Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Stella wasn’t surprised that Annie would bite her like a mad dog. After a moment of silence, she asked, “Mr. Conrad, do you believe her?”

“Whether I believe her or not depends on your answer.”

“No, he’s not.” Stella didn’t want to explain anything meaningless. She added, “Mr. Conrad, you could look into the days of my pregnancy and check when Horace has come back from abroad.”

Clarence didn’t speak, withdrawing his gaze calmly.

Stella parted her lips. She wanted to say something but she didn’t think it would be useful.

After a few seconds, Clarence said, “It doesn’t mean I believe you. I just don’t believe Annie. You don’t need to be delighted.”

Stella was speechless.

What he said didn’t make sense at all.

Clarence added, “Stella, there’s no good person in the Conrad family.”

Nor was he.

Stella didn’t retort. She agreed with him, and especially he was a jerk.

However...

She said in a low voice, “I don’t think Justin is the same as others.”

Clarence retorted, “Oh, really? How do you know?”

“I’ve talked to him several times. I can tell if the person was a nice one from his language and behaviors.”

“In that case, how come I couldn’t understand why so many people like you so much based on your language and behaviors?”

Stella was choked up by his words again.

She inhaled deeply, “Mr. Conrad, we’re discussing some matters. Please stop your personal attack, OK?”

Clarence secretly curled up his lips, “I’m discussing the matter with you. What else do you have besides your appearance? Are they too stupid to see through you?”

“Mr. Conrad, in my opinion, if everyone else had different opinions with you on one matter, you should consider if it’s because of your own problem.”
