Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Sherry took Stella’s phone, and the smile on her face faded little by little.

On the screen, Daniel was blindfolded and gaged, his body covered with bloody wounds.

There were injures on his shoulders, chest, and waist...

Sherry recalled that though it was hot, Daniel wore long sleeves that night.

He must be wearing it to cover his wounds.

After a while, she returned the phone to Stella and said casually, “Okay. In that case, I feel a little bit better in my heart.”

“Sherry...” Stella hesitated.

Sherry put on a smile. “Well, I know what you want to say. I am clear about my relationship with him. We are not even boyfriend and girlfriend to each other. In the past, I did not feel anything wrong about it. But now I realize that he and I come from different worlds. It's time for us to say goodbye to each other. But I do hope that he is safe and sound. After all, we are still friends.”

Stella did not say anything else. She knew it was Sherry’s own choice, just like what Clarence said.

Sherry added, “Just go to Riverside City without worry. I will take care of things here.”

Stella nodded. “Help me keep an eye on Channing. I am afraid he will go to Chassell.”

“All right. He will start school in a few days. And I will pay attention to him. If there is any news, I will tell you immediately,” Sherry said.

After sending Stella to the door, Sherry asked, “Will Elaine come back?”

Stella looked ahead and replied, “I... I don’t know.”

...

On the private plane to Riverside City, Stella kept looking out of the window and pondering.

Clarence gently pinched her nose. “What’s wrong?”

She retrieved her thoughts. “I was thinking since those elders and Hilbert died, and the James family is completely under control of Darnell, so maybe Ms. Anderson could...”
