Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

In the rented room, Winnie didn’t even want to wash her face. With all her stuff in hand, she intended to take on her shoes and leave right now.

Leaning against the shoe cabinet, Channing said, “Stella wants to invite you to the dinner tonight.”

Her cheeks flushed, Winnie said, “I won’t go. You tell her I won’t be available tonight for I have to fly to another city to attend an activity this afternoon.”

She felt she was in bad luck. She had been befuddled for the whole night. To make it worse, she even picked up Channing’s phone to answer a call from Stella. She failed to realize it wasn’t her phone!

As a result, now she was ashamed to meet Stella.

How could she explain the situation to her?

She came to persuade him to accept William. But what she actually did was give Channing a jerk-off.

Alas, extremely embarrassing indeed.

Noticing that she had put on her shoes, Channing said, “I will see you off.”

Winnie declined, “You don’t have to. You’ve just begun to get better.”

Halting for a second, she still gave him the advice anyway, “After having lunch you should take the medicine again. And in Stella’s place you should have something bland.”

She had paid great efforts in hope of his early recovery. She was unwilling to make his illness get more serious.

Channing fixed his eyes on her calmly without a word.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Winnie murmured, “What... What happened?”

Channing said slowly, “Then are you available tonight?”

Winnie was silent.

“You don’t have any class tomorrow?”

“No class in the morning.”

Now it was Winnie’s turn to remain speechless.

If it was someone else, she would definitely decline his invitation.

However, for it was Channing, it was beyond her capability to do the same.

Most importantly, she was also eager to be with him.

Maybe the interactions last night had made it clearer how intimate the relationship between them was.
