Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

When Daniel was on the way to buy breakfast, he happened to bump into Clarence, who came back home with breakfast.

They met at the entrance, exchanging a glance with each other.

Daniel said calmly, “Morning, Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence replied, “You act pretty fast.”

Daniel raised his eyebrows and said proudly, “Compared to you, Mr. Conrad, I agree.”

Clarence snorted, not in the mood to retort.

Daniel looked at the food in his hands, resting a hand on his waist. “Mr. Conrad, you’ve bought too much food. Can you finish it all? Why don’t you share some with me?”

Clarence entered the passcode to unlock the door. “Go buy it yourself.”

With a loud bang, he smashed the door close.

Daniel was wordless.

Stella had already tidied up herself when Clarence walked into the living room. She was drinking a glass of water in the dining room.

She looked over at Clarence. “Who were you talking to at the door?”

“A beggar.”

Stella was confused.

Clarence paused a bit and completed his words. “It’s Daniel. He asked me to share the breakfast with him. I rejected him.”

Stella was amused.

His short conclusion did make sense.

Clarence put the food on the dining table. Stella said, “You’ve bought a lot. We can’t finish them all. I'll share some with Sherry.”

Clarence didn’t refuse again this time. He hummed to agree.

Stella felt quite amazed. While picking up the food, she asked, “Why didn’t you give it to Daniel earlier?”

“I bought them myself. Why would I let him take advantage of me? He must go by himself. I guess he’s arrived downstairs.”

Stella felt amused again.
