Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 638

Stella spoke after a while of silence, “But I have many affairs to deal with in the studio. Or can you wait until the fashion week is over?”

Clarence was rendered speechless.

He said, “I want to take a bath. Go dry your hair.”

Stella replied with a nasal sound, “Have you had dinner?”

“I ate a bit.”

Before Clarence walked into the bathroom, Stella took out her hair dryer and blew her hair until it was half dry, Then she stood up and walked into the kitchen to prepare a simple meal for Clarence.

After a while, Clarence walked over, wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, and kissed her ear, “Did you change a body wash?”

“Yep. I bought it online. Does it smell good?”

“It’s good.”

Stella said, “Use the one I bought for you. Don’t always use my body wash.”

Clarence asked with dissatisfaction, “Why?”

“This body wash is for girls and its fragrance is stronger. It’s weird for you to use it. If other people smell the fragrance, they will think that you’re a pervert.”

”Except for you, who will have the mood to lean over me to smell it?”

Stella was speechless.

She imagined the scene that Nathan leaned towards Clarence and thought it was indeed horrifying.

Stella pulled Clarence’s hand, “Well, let go of me. I will turn off the fire.”

Clarence slowly withdrew his hands and straightened his back.

Stella put the bowl and spoon onto the table, “Go eat it. I will draw the designs. Leave the dishes on the table after finishing the meal and don’t wash them. Please.”

She liked this set of dishes and she had only used them for two days. They tenaciously survived from Elaine, and Stella hoped that they could be preserved for a period.

Clarence smirked and picked up the spoon.

Stella came back to her bedroom, opened the drawing book and continued to draw the unfinished design.

After a long while, the door of the bedroom was gently pushed open.

Clarence leaned against the door with one hand in his pocket and looked at her silently.

Stella showed extraordinary tenacity in the face of the things she loved.

If she didn’t marry him four years ago, she would have achieved great achievement in this industry.

She had been clear of what she really wanted after divorcing him.

But he himself, who once thought that he had a clear mind, had a messy life in the end.

When Stella finished the design, she put down the pencil and stretched out lazily. When she turned around, she found Clarence standing at the door and fixing his eyes on her. His black eyes appeared to be unfathomable and calm.

Stella felt a bit embarrassed under his gaze, “Why are you standing there?”

Clarence slightly raised his brows and said slowly, “I’m captivated by you.”

Stella was rendered speechless.

Clarence continued, “Women look beautiful when they're serious.”

Stella was lost for words again.

“And you’re the most beautiful one.”

Stella couldn’t withstand it anymore, “All right. Enough.”

Clarence curled his lips into a smile, closed the door and walked into the room, “Have you finished it?”}

“Almost.”

Clarence walked over, carried her up and then put her onto the bed, “Then go to bed.”

Stella stared at him, “I will go to bed, but why do you take advantage of me.”

Clarence tugged the stand of hair in front of her forehead behind her ear, lowered his head and bit her lips, “Warm-up before sleeping.”

The words that Stella wanted to say were swallowed by him.

The man’s lips cruised all the way down from her lips and wandered around her collarbone.

Stella moaned when she felt the tingle.

Elaine finally recalled that when she left Riverside, she blocked her father’s number as she was afraid of being bombarded by phone calls, and maybe she subconsciously removed him from the blacklist as she was hesitating whether to give him a call or not.

As Elaine was the one who did wrong, she didn’t retort it.

Franklin continued, “I asked my men to pick you up. Why didn’t you go back?”

”I think this place is good and I don’t want to go back.”

“Even if you go out for fun and relaxation, it has been one week. Hurry up to come back.”

Elaine refused it, “No.”

Franklin was immediately infuriated, “Elaine James, do you know how serious it is? How dare you secretly left Riverside? If it wasn’t that I and your grand-grandpa have suppressed the news, you would have been removed out of the pedigree of the James family.”

”I don’t care! Is there any advantage to be on the pedigree? Anyone who wants it can just take it.”

”You...”

Elaine shifted the topic, “Dad, City N is good and the world outside of Riverside is also wonderful. I can’t understand why do you guys confine yourself in Riverside. All human beings have independent consciousness. We aren’t cats or puppies that have no means to resist it when being locked in cages.”

Franklin was lost for words.

Elaine continued, “All right. I call you to tell you that I’m safe and that I live well in City N. You don’t have to worry about me. Goodbye.”

At the other end of the phone, Franklin took a deep breath when he heard the busy tone.

It was him who called Elaine, how could she distorted the truth and said that it was her who call him to tell him that she was safe?

Hilbert, who sat behind Franklin, asked with his eyes closed, “Elaine still refuses to go back, right?”

Franklin turned around, “I’ve spoiled her when she was young so that she’s unruly now.”

”Never mind. She’s not the only one who broke the rules.”

Franklin asked after a while of silence, “Then what about her marriage with Darnell?”

Hilbert slowly opened his eyes, “Let’s put the marriage again. Our current concern is to persuade those doyens and let them agree to Darnell on abolishing those rules of the James family.”

”They won’t agree to it.”

”Even so, we have to try.” Hilbert continued in a deep voice, “The reason why Darnell sent Elaine to City N is to force us to side him.”
