Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

In the early morning of Saturday, Sherry dragged Stella out of the quilt and asked Stella to make up well.

Stella was sitting in front of the window. The sunshine was so dazzling that she could hardly open her eyes.

Sherry said, “It’s such a beautiful day today! Quite suitable for dating. I’ll also dress up and go out for fun.”

Stella yawned. “It’s so early now. Where are you going?”

“All schools are on winter vacation now. I’ll go around the colleges nearby and see if there’s any college student who needs a helping hand to carry his suitcase. If I could meet one, that would be perfect. It’s a rare chance.”

Stella lost her tongue in amusement.

After she straightened herself up, Emmett called.

Sherry walked her downstairs. On the way back to their apartment for sleeping in, she encountered Daniel, who just finished jogging, while waiting for the elevator.

They greeted each other and fell into the silence.

When the elevator went up, the atmosphere in the narrow space became more and more embarrassing.

Daniel coughed and found a topic at random. “Emmett said Ms. Radomil has gone to the annual party of Star Ferry Technology.”

Sherry nodded. “Yeah. I just walked her downstairs.”

Then they were quiet again.

As soon as the elevator door was opened, Sherry strode out immediately. When she opened the door of her apartment, Daniel said behind her back, “I’m quite sorry for the thing that happened last time. If you have time, I want to treat you for a dinner tonight.”

After a pause, Sherry curled up her lips into a smile. She looked back and pretended to be quite calm when saying, “Only the two of us? I don’t think...” She didn’t think it was proper.

“As well as Ms. Radomil’s younger brother.”

Sherry coughed a bit. “That’s much better. All right.”

Daniel nodded slightly. “Okay. See you this evening.”
