Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

The next day, when the alarm sounded, Stella woke up. She fumbled for her phone on the nightstand as usual but failed to find it.

She kept listening to the alarm with her eyes closed for a long while, only to find that the sound came from underneath the bed.

When she was about to stretch out to get her phone, the strength of the hand that was wrapping around her waist was slightly increased. She was pulled back.

Off-guard, Stella fell into the man’s arms again.

Clarence kissed her on the back of her ear. He said in a sleepy and hoarse tone, “Let’s sleep in.”

“I want to turn off the alarm.” After a pause, Stella asked, “It’s eight o’clock. Don’t you go to work?”

“I don’t want to.”

Stella whispered, “But I need to go to my studio.”

After a few seconds, Clarence gradually opened his eyes and said hoarsely, “You are quite spirited. Didn’t you cry and beg me to stop last night?”

Stella choked up.

She slightly blushed. “It’s early morning. Can’ you speak the human language?”

“I don’t even want to be a human. Why should I speak the human language?”

As he spoke, his hand on her waist became quite restless, gradually moving upwards.

Stella couldn’t keep breathing calmly. “You...”

The man gently kissed her neck, demanding more. “You can go to work later today. Don’t you have employees in your studio?”

“I can’t...”

Before she finished her words, she couldn’t utter any sound at all.

Soon, the morning passed.

When Stella arrived at her studio, it was one o’clock in the afternoon.

She felt painful and sore all over her body, making her keep cursing the wretched man.
