Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again Chapter 67: We Will Not Contact Each Other Again

Phoebe seemed to think of something, “I remember that your cousin Clarence doesn’t like her, right?”

“Yeah, but I don’t know what’s wrong with him recently. He warned me not to go hard with her several
days ago.”

Phoebe picked up a glass of wine and said nonchalantly, “Maybe it’s because she’s pregnant.”

Annie widened her eyes, “What? But she…”

Phoebe said in a gentle voice, “I saw her in the hospital before and it seemed like she was here to have
a pregnancy inspection. I asked her tentatively for several times later and I guessed that she’s probably
pregnant. Annie, don’t tell others about this. I know that she has divorced Clarence, but so far and don’t
know who the father of the child in her belly is…”

Phoebe’s words were so euphemistic, but she explicitly expressed the key information. Hatred towards
Stella immediately appeared in Annie’s eyes.

That shameless woman had been pestering Horace recently and she showed up in this banquet out of
the blue today. Annie guessed that Stella was probably planning to threat Horace to marry her with the
child in her belly. She would not allow this to happen.

Annie turned around indignantly and went to find Stella.

Looking at her back, Phoebe slowly finished the wine in the glass.

On the other side, Stella was still waiting for Sherry’s message. She became more and more flustered
and uneasy.

She suddenly heard someone shouting at her, “You, come here, clear this place.”



Stella looked over following the sound and found the red spills on the ground. She guessed that maybe
a child was playing there before and accidently knocked over the glass.

Seeing that Stella was still motionless, the man shouted again, “Are you dumb? Do you know how
distinguished the guests of today’s banquet are? If one of them falls down because of this, will you be
held responsible?”

Horace’s voice suddenly sounded.

The man, who was so cocky and overbearing just now, immediately changed his attitude when he saw
Horace. He walked over to greet Horace, “Mr. Jason, I’ve been admiring you. I’m…”

Horace looked askance at him, but the gentleness that he always wore disappeared. He pulled Stella
out of the lobby.

They stopped beside a swimming pool. Horace asked, “Stella, how comes that you’re here?”

Stella replied, “For some matters.”

She paused and then asked, “Are you going to engage with Annie?”

Horace was amused, “Clarence told you about that?”

He shifted his gaze to the other place when speaking. After a long while, he finally replied, “For me, if I
can’t marry the girl I like, I will not care a scrap about which woman I’m going to marry in the future.”

Stella was lost for words, “Horace…”

If the one he engaged was the other person, she would send her sincere blessing to them as she
regarded Horace as her friend. But since Stella was so clear of Annie’s personality, so no matter what,
she hoped that Horace could consider it carefully.



Horace said, “Stella, you don’t need to blame yourself. I only knew about this last night. It was not
Annie who insisted on engaging with me, it was the Jason family that calls for the commercial marriage
with the Conrad Group.”

Stella suddenly didn’t know what to say. It was true. Did feelings matter in front of a commercial
cooperation worthy of hundreds of millions of RMB?

Rich families seemed to be glory on the surface, but it was indeed a cruel place.

“Stella, I hope you can marry the one you like and I hope that he will also love you.”

He and Stella were the same. They missed the opportunity to be with each other again and again.

Horace often thought that if he was not that composed and reasonable and confessed to Stella before,
maybe things would be totally different today.

After a long while, Stella gave him a light smile, “Maybe this will never happen.”

Horace was silent. He then asked, “You and Clarence…”

“It’s impossible for us to be together. I haven’t gotten even with him. When those problems are solved,
we will not owe each other anything any longer and we will not contact each other again.”

“That’s good. The Conrad family is far more complicated than you’ve imagined. And Clarence is not
suitable for you.”

Horace had to deal with many matters tonight, so he didn’t stay with Stella for too long.

Stella didn’t want to come back to the lobby because she felt it oppressive. Standing beside the
swimming pool, she enjoyed the gentle breezes and was lost in her thoughts when looking at the



glimmering pool. But he didn’t notice that Clarence was looking at her at the distance with coldness
written all over his handsome face. He was enshrouded in the dark night and was expressionless.

How dared to think like this? Could she clear what she owed him by simply giving back his money?

After a long while, Clarence coldly shifted his gaze and left.

At the same time, Stella received a call from Sherry.

Sherry went to Channing’s school, but the school told her that Channing was not its student. Sherry
didn’t believe in it and asked many people.

Channing ranked the first in the province in the national college entrance examination and his grade
ranked the first in this school. It should be easy for Sherry to get his information. But when she came to
the ‘list of top students’ of the school, she found that the one ranking first had the same grade as
Channing’s. And Channing was not on the list.

A manager of the school rushed over when he heard about this. When he learned that Sherry was here
to find Channing, his attitude immediately became weird. He told Sherry was not a student of the
school and called the security guards to drive Sherry out of the school.

Stella held her phone tightly and closed her eyes. She could roughly guess what was going on.

But Sherry still couldn’t figure it out. She asked, “Stella, what the hell is going on? I can’t get in touch
with Channing. What I learned from the school made me doubt whether if I’ve mistaken it.”

“I will explain it to you later.” Stella pressed her lips together, “Can you please go to the convenience
store that Chan worked for before. I want to know whether he’s there or not.”

“Okay, I will go there now.”



Stella suddenly felt feeble when she hung up the phone.

She hadn’t expected that Channing would sell his admission letter to the other person. Was he clear
about what this meant?

Right at this moment, Stella suddenly heard some footsteps from behind and felt that the air around her
inexplicably became colder. Her heart missed one beat. When she wanted to turn around to have a
look, she was knocked down by someone.

The wind breezed through the swimming pool in front of her.

Stella then fell down into the pool. She felt the water pouring her ears and her nose.

She struggled out of the instinct. Yet she was surrounded by water and she couldn’t catch anything.

She gradually sank into the pool and all her strength was gradually drained out of her body. Out of no
reason, Stella suddenly wanted to give up everything when sensing the endless darkness.

Sometimes she felt it really tiring to live in this world.

…

When Clarence walked to the lobby, he heard a maid shouting from behind, “Someone falls into the
water.”

He paused. When he turned around, he found that the woman standing beside the swimming pool
before was nowhere to be found now.

Clarence’s black pupils abruptly shrank and he rushed towards the pool.

When he arrived there, the surface of the water had become calm.



He jumped into the water without hesitation.

Stella vaguely felt someone pulling her into his arms and giving her an artificial respiration.
