Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again Chapter 380: You Must Compensate Me

After the interview, a group of reporters left.

“Not bad, you didn't humiliate me,” Robert said as he approached Modesty.

She claimed before, regardless of whether the contest was three years ago or today, that she was
destined to be the champion.

This was her real talent.

“I've made a restaurant appointment in a hotel tonight to thank them and to discuss our collaboration,”
Robert said, sweeping a glance at the organizer and panel judges.

Modesty nodded, “All right.”

Robert was summoned and departed.

“Ms. Barton,” Modesty called out as she looked around and spotted Aurora getting ready to depart.

“Yes?” Aurora asked, slightly irritated.

“I…”

Aurora said, "Oh yeah." “Congratulations on your victory, do you feel like a champion?”

“Thank you for your help, about Arthur...” said Modesty, biting her lower lip.

Aurora gave a warm grin. “Arthur? Oh, and regarding him, do you believe he was the only one I was
able to get rid of for you? It was the two over there that was the most difficult.”

When Modesty turned to where she was looking, her gaze fell on two well-known designers from the
panel of judges.



“You mean?” she exclaimed, taken aback.

“I'm the reason you won, or else you would have been disqualified during the semifinal,” Aurora
groaned. "Even though I despise her, she is a far better designer than you are. You are inexperienced
and should gain more knowledge.” She said before she left.

Modesty grew pale as she peered at her back.

No... That wasn't true...

Even though Arthur cheated for her in the semifinal, it was her skill that earned her the championship
even without the help of Arthur!

Her designs were far superior to Stella's!!

Her phone rang at this point, and she grimaced as she looked at the numbers on the screen before
hanging up.

However, the same number called again, which irritated her. "Is this Ms. Parker, we are phoning from
Benevolence & Trust Hospital...”

“Are you crazy? Please don't contact me again!” She pressed harshly on the screen and hung up.

Arthur stepped up to her and purposefully hit her on the shoulders, warning her not to forget about their
date tonight, before smiling and walked away.

After he left, “It's time, let's go,” Robert said as he approached. Modesty nodded despite feeling terrible
inside.

…



Winnie responded quickly after receiving Stella's text. She came because she had some free time
today.

Stella didn't invite Clarence because there were only ladies from the studio today, and none of them
had brought boyfriends.

He was irritated and inquired, "Why can't I join?”

“We're a gathering of women, won't you feel weird or excluded?" Stella gently explained.

"No."

"... I believe you will."

"Don't overthink things," Clarence replied.

"Don't go," Stella said, biting her lower lip. "I'll treat you to a fantastic supper tomorrow, okay?"

Clarence paused when he heard that, "Is this your only offer?" he inquired.

"Do you have anything else in mind?"

"You must compensate me since you would not allow me to join today."

While everyone had arrived except Stella, there was still texting going on in the chat room.

She just wanted to get rid of Clarence since he was too clingy, so she went in close, bit his lips swiftly,
and bolted.

Everyone had shown up.

"Where is Clarence?" Winnie wondered as Stella sat down. "Did he let you come by yourself?"



"It's a gathering of ladies, why would he be here?" Stella blurted. "He's busy at work too," she added as
another reason.

"Chan will be here, he won't be alone," Sherry said.

"You invited Chan?" Stella was taken aback.

"Yes. These women kept pushing me to invite him, so I did," Sherry said softly.

"Did he say he'd come?"

"He's on his way."

"Okay," Stella said.

Winnie retained a smile on her face as she sat silently.

Channing arrived after ten minutes.

His hands were unwrapped, and his forehead and chin were just bandaged.

The sole empty seat was next to Winnie, so he paused for a moment before taking a seat.

The females were enthralled by his look and began texting in the group.

"I suppose he'd improved his appearance!"

"Darn it, the family genetics are too good! I'm jealous!"

"That bandage pierced my heart, he's just too attractive!"

"I've decided to quit my relationship with my partner tonight so that I can date this hottie!"



"Please figure out his preferred type tonight! For him, I'm willing to change!"

"We can do that, after all, didn't Sherry say we'd go to karaoke later? Sisters, let's go! We've got this!"

Except for a couple of them, everyone at that table was ecstatic.

Stella noted something different apart from that.

She turned to Channing after looking at Winnie.

They were sitting next to one other, yet there appeared to be a barrier between them.

Didn't she ask Channing to call and apologize? Was it because he didn't do it or because they were still
upset with each other?

"Cheers for all the hard work and to celebrate Stella's runner-up win!" Sherry, who hadn't noticed
anything, raised her glass.

Nobody could say anything.

Stella, on the other hand, smiled, knowing that all she wanted to do was shift the atmosphere while still
consoling her differently. Putting aside her rivalry with Modesty, a runner-up finish in such a high-caliber
competition was not awful at all.

In the middle of the meal, Stella and Winnie took a bathroom break and unintentionally ran into
Modesty and Robert.

What a small world.
