Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Sherry was by Stella’s side until Clarence showed up at her ward, then she slipped away.

Stella sat on the side of the bed, looked at him with eyes devoid of any energy and said, “Get me out of here.”

Clarence adjusted his necktie, sat on the sofa and said, “Aren’t you supposed to stay here for half a month?”

Stella wanted to say something to object him, but she felt that it would fall on deaf ears. However, she recalled her conversation with Sherry this afternoon. An idea formed in her head, as she licked her lips naughtily and lied back on the bed, “Fine then. I’ll stay here for half a month. Horace’s coming back here anyway, I can chat with him in the meantime.”

Clarence was confused, “Hmm?”

The news of Mr. Jason’s hospitalization did not reach his ears until this afternoon as the Jason family had been very secretive regarding the news, it was not something the general public could know. It was likely that they were waiting for Horace to return and sort things out at the Jason Group.

Clarence replied, “Who told you that?”

“I met Rebecca downstairs in the afternoon; she was the one who told me.”

“They’re in this hospital?”

“Yeah, fate brought us together, don’t you think?”

Clarence chuckled as he stood up to leave the ward.

Stella looked at him and said, “Where are you going?”

“Didn’t you say that you want to get out of here? I’ll go and do the procedures that will get you out of here.”

He said as he walked out of the ward.

Stella looked at him as he left, smirked and thought to herself, “Heh, that conversation was useful after all.”

On their way back, Stella asked, “Is my phone with you?”

Clarence said with a straight face, “Is it with me?”

Stella was taken aback by him.

This wretched man’s childishness knew no bounds.

Dissatisfied, she demanded, “Give me back my phone, I have things to do.”

“What things?”

“A whole bunch of things, I haven’t touched my phone since yesterday, who knows if someone looked for me in the meantime?”

Clarence replied, “No one looked for you.”

Stella said in a slightly darker tone, “You looked through my phone?”
