Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again Chapter 98: She Was Super Interested in this Subject

After resting for another night, Stella got much better from the cold.

However, she had slept too much the previous day. Hence, in the morning, she woke up at eight
o’clock.

When Stella walked downstairs, Dolores was preparing breakfast. She probably didn’t expect that
Stella would get up too early today, “Morning, Stella. Wait for a moment. The breakfast would be ready
soon.”

“It’s alright, Ms. Anderson. I’m not hungry yet. I’ll have a walk outside.”

“Okay. Come back on time.”

“Sure.”

It was getting cooler recently. Although a trace of sunshine fell through the cloud, she didn’t feel warm.

The bridge was covered with golden leaves, symbolizing the arrival of autumn.

Stella walked slowly. When she was reaching the door and about to enter, she was pulled by someone
from the back.

She turned around, “Hi, Ms. Beckham?”

Evelyn peeped into the house in secret, and then she made a gesture to shush Stella. She dragged
Stella into her house.

Stella was confused and asked, “Ms. Beckham, what’s wrong?”

Evelyn closed the door and said, “Stella, I want to ask you what kind of person do you think Mr. Conrad
is?”



It seemed that Evelyn wanted to know more about Clarence. Stella was super interested in this subject.

She could keep bitching about the wretched man continuously for three days and nights.

After a thought, Stella asked, “Ms. Beckham, why do you want to know?”

Evelyn said, “You know he is Dolores’ son, right?”

Stella nodded.

“Don’t you think it’s so coincident? This community was about to be torn down and rebuilt, but suddenly
Dolores’ son showed up. He hasn’t come to see his mother in the past twenty years at all. What an
unfilial son!”

“Well...”

“I’ve been thinking for a whole night yesterday. I found that there was a new fraud that targeted the
elderly who live alone and don’t have children. The fraud will cheat the elderly for money with a fake
identity.”

Stella was amused.

She wondered if Evelyn was way too good at imagination.

Evelyn was so worried, “Otherwise, how can it make any sense? He hasn’t been in touch with Dolores
in the past twenty years. Now the community is to be torn down and Dolores would get the
compensation. He suddenly showed up. I don’t think it’s normal.”

“Wait... Ms. Beckham. Have you forgotten that Clarence... Mr. Conrad is the developer? I don’t think he
needs to cheat Ms. Anderson for her housing compensation.”



Evelyn was taken aback. She patted on her forehead, “Oh, right! I’ve forgotten about this. I just
wondered why suddenly Dolores has a son. But, in that case, it’s weirder. Since he’s so rich, it’s quite
easy for him to find Dolores. Why hasn’t he shown up in the past twenty years?”

Upon hearing it, Stella was a bit confused.

She didn’t ask them what had happened back then. However, based on Justin’s words and Clarence’s
attitude, she could faintly guess that it was against Clarence’s will when he was taken in by the Conrad
family in the past.

Stella guessed that it was probably that Clarence’s father cajoled, forced, or bribe Ms. Anderson to give
Clarence to him. All mothers in the world wished that their kids would be leading worry-free lives, so
Stella guessed that Ms. Anderson moved in such a circumstance.

Upon realizing it, Stella couldn’t help wondering what she would do if she were Dolores.

If one day in several years, Clarence suddenly changed his mind, asked her to give back his child, and
asked her to disappear as far as possible, Stella wondered what she should do.

Evelyn poked her, “Stella, what are you thinking about? Don’t you think my words make any sense?”

Stella came back to her senses, “Oh, nothing. Well, Ms. Beckham, Mr. Conrad is truly Ms. Anderson’s
son. They were like each other in terms of their characters.”

“I’m not worried. It’s just that Dolores has been staying here for decades and no family has ever visited
her. She’s quite lonely and leading a difficult life. I’m worried that she was cheated.”

Stella smiled, “No worries, Ms. Beckham. She wouldn’t.”

Evelyn nodded “Oh, by the way, I don’t know what happened. Alex suddenly moved out without
informing the neighbors. You guys...”



“Ms. Beckham, I gotta go back for breakfast. Bye.”

Stella trotted out of her house like a rabbit. Evelyn sighed, “Silly girl...”

...

Probably it was because Dolores was at home, Clarence was restrained. He didn’t use Stella as using
a maid earlier. Finally, Stella had time to deal with her own work.

Recently, Modesty’s new design was in the market, which had good sales, too. With Conrad Group’s
help, she became more unrestrained. In SG Jewelry Magazine, except that Stanford could suppress
her, she was quite arrogant that she looked down on everyone else.

Sherry was quite stubborn and unwilling to submit. They had several arguments recently. Modesty
even said to her arrogantly, “When your design could be displayed on the international stage, you have
the right to talk to me.”

Upon hearing it, Sherry rolled up her sleeves and almost threw Modesty a punch. Other coworkers
stopped Sherry.

“I’m so speechless. Hasn’t she just studied in Paris for a few years? The opportunity was given to her
because you dumped it. Look at her! Others who don’t know the inside story would even think that the
fashion week was held for her particularly.”

Stella was drawing her draft while answering the call, “Mind your wording. I didn’t dump it. I was forced
to give up.”

On the other end of the line, Sherry heaved a sigh, “As the old saying goes, 'A man who loses position
and influence may be subjected to many indignities.' By the way, Modesty Parker always told others
that she was from a rich family, doesn’t she? Sometimes when she speaks, she would speak English



words. The other day, her father came to our company looking for her. Until then, we all got to know
that she wasn’t from a rich family at all...”

After bitching about Modesty to Stella, Sherry was in a better mood. She continued, “I went to see
Chan in his university. He enjoys studying there. I wondered if you asked Clarence Conrad, the
wretched man, for help.”

Stella was quiet for a moment and then answered, “I truly didn’t know who else I could ask for help on
this matter.”

“That’s right. He is the only one who can do this kind of thing by using his power. At least, he has finally
done something humane. Ah, he is so petty and seeks revenge for the smallest grievance. How did he
promise to help you?”

Stella couldn’t utter a word suddenly. Just now, when she turned around, she found that Clarence was
standing behind her. With a glass of milk in one hand, he stood with the other hand in his trousers
pocket, gazing at her coldly.

Sherry waited a long time but she didn’t get Stella’s reply, so she thought something wrong with the
call, “Hello? Stella? Are you there?”

Stella put on a wry smile, “Haha... He’s quite easy-going and not petty...”

“Easy-going? The wretched man has a sharp tongue, always barking. I don’t think he speaks a human
language.”

“Not really...”

Stella panicked and wanted to find her phone that was covered by the draft papers. Unexpectedly,
Clarence put the glass of milk on the desk, turned her chair, and bent over slightly. With his hands



supporting on the armrests and gazing at her, he said in a low and calm voice, “Why don’t you tell her
how I promise to help you?”
