Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

After getting back to her workshop, before Stella could settle down, one of the female employees scurried to her side and asked mysteriously, “Ms. Radomil, are you busy at the moment?”

“I am not, what’s the matter?”

The girl’s voice became even more hushed, “That handsome guy next door asked me to pass you the word that you have to go see him after you’re back. And he reminded me not to get the word to Sherry.”

“What don’t you want me to hear about?”

The girl jumped at the sudden voice and turned around only to see that Sherry was just inches away. He then laughed dryly, “No—Nothing at all.”

She was done sending her message, so there was no reason for her to stay any longer. She mumbled some excuse before fleeing.

Sherry leaned against the office desk and started to interrogate Stella, “What are you guys talking about just now? You look so secretive like spies.”

Stella smiled, “It’s nothing serious, it’s probably about…”

Daniel had some business with him.

But due to her words last time, it seemed that Daniel was avoiding Sherry purposely. That was probably the reason he didn’t come to see her ever since.

Sherry wasn’t that oblivious as she noticed some employee next door summoning one of their girls just now. She stretched lazily, “I am going to take a nap back there. Come wake me if you need me.”

“Alright.”

After Sherry was gone, Stella put down her things and exited her office.

The next door, Daniel was sitting in front of a piano, and upon Stella’s arrival, he immediately stopped what he was doing and shot a glance at another employee next to him. The latter understood what he meant as he made way to the door.

Stella asked, “What’s the matter?”

Daniel brought down the cover of the piano and began, “Yesterday, did Charles instruct one of the lawyers of the Steward family and pass you an equity transfer letter?”

Stella simply nodded.

It wasn’t that surprising that Daniel could learn of this, since he was keeping a close eye to the Stewards.
