Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Stella came back to her senses, smiling at her, “Nothing.”

Sherry picked up the drafts, “I’m taking off then. Call me if you need anything.”

“Sure. Please go ahead.”

In the morning, when Stella went to the lounge for water, a girl timidly approached her. She whispered, “Excuse me, Stella. May I ask you a question, please?”

Stella’s hand shook when she heard her question. Subconsciously, she recalled the embarrassing scene in the morning.

She put down the water glass, turned around, and smiled faintly, “Of course. Please go ahead.”

“Well...” The girl was a bit hesitant as if she didn’t know how to start.

Stella wasn’t rushing at all, waiting for her patiently.

After a while, the girl said, “Stella, do you still remember all the customers that have been to our studio? I meant the mid-aged men in their forties and fifties, who looked quite rich with strong charisma.”

Stella was confused, “Why do you suddenly ask me about them?”

The girl exhaled, “Yesterday, the man who came here should be your father, right?”

Stella pressed her lips, hinting at the girl to go on.

“When I saw him, he reminded me of another man. They are extremely similar to each other in terms of charisma. The other man should have been to our store before, but I couldn’t recall who he was. I thought about it for a whole night but failed to ring the bell. Stella, please don’t mind me. I have OCD since I was a child. I couldn’t let go a matter unless I’ve figured it out.”

Stella smiled, “It’s alright. I’m like that sometimes as well.”

The girl said, “There are so many customers to our store every day. I don’t think you could remember the man either. But, it’s alright. I’m just asking.”

If she had asked Stella such a question earlier, Stella might not have any impression.
