Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

When Stella came back to the Stewards’ Mansion at night, Charles was in his study.

She walked to the study and then knocked on the door. Then there came Charles’ voice, “Come in.”

Charles asked whens seeing Stella, “What’s wrong. Are you dissatisfied with Phoebe’s apology today?”

Stella said, “Ms. Steward didn’t show up. How can I be satisfied or dissatisfied with it?”

Charles narrowed his eyes when he heard the words. Apparently, he had known what happened today.

Stella continued, “But Mr. Steward, please rest assured. I come to find you for the other matter.”

Charles asked, “What’s it?”

“I plan to move out of the Stewards’ Mansion.”

Charles didn’t expect that she would suddenly mention this. He knitted his brows, seeming to be pondering something.

Stella continued in a composed voice, “I’ve considered it carefully recently. The Steward’s Mansion is an unfamiliar place for me. Now that I can’t recall what happened in my childhood, it’s unnecessary for me to stay here.”

Charles replied after a short while of silence, “Now that you insist on leaving, I won’t stop you. But the anniversary celebration of the Steward Group will be held several days later. You may leave when the celebration is over.”

Stella knitted her brows and slightly pressed her lips together.

As expected, Charles was plotting something by taking advantage of the anniversary celebration.

Seeing that Stella was silent, Charles asked, “What’s wrong? You’ve lived here for a long time. I’m just asking you to live here for several more days. Do you think that I can do anything to you?”

Stella smiled lightly, “Mr. Steward, you think too much of it. It’s just that I didn’t expect you would invite me to the anniversary celebration.”

Stella replied in a flat tone, “You said you’re Miranda’s daughter. So you should take part in the anniversary celebration of the Steward Group.”

“Now that this is the case, I won’t decline it anymore.”

Stella then came back to her bedroom. She rubbed her cheeks which were with muscle soreness. She had been wearing a fake smile for the whole day, and it was somehow tiresome.

She turned her neck left and right, picked up her clothes and then walked into the bathroom for a shower.

Just as she came out of the bathroom, she saw her phone, which was thrown onto the bed by her before, was glimmering.
