Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 4

The Conrad family did not like Stella in the first place and their disgust towards her grew even more when the fake pregnancy issue was exposed. Their attitude towards Stella had been apathetic. No wonder Clarence was so mad this time, it turned out she had made a huge mistake.

Stella waited for another few days after she went back, yet she still did not receive any message from Clarence. Their encounter at the Twilight Club that day enabled her to have sufficient reason to suspect that the reason Clarence delayed their divorce was to completely disgust her, keeping on reminding her he had cheated on her wherever she went. That was to take revenge of what she had done to him back then.

Clarence was patient to delay the matter, yet Stella could not waste her time and energy on that anymore. What she thought beforehand was to make plans after she had gone through all the divorce formalities. She still needed to live her life, and she did not want to sit and wait there anymore.

Sherry stopped eating the chips in her hand when she heard that she wanted to find a job and she became energetic. “Come to our magazine, our magazine coincidentally wants to hire a designer to make our own brand recently.” Stella frowned when she heard that. “Am I…capable? I’ve not created anything for three years.”

“Of course you can, honey. Just try, you have nothing to lose.” Stella was persuaded and she nodded. “Okay.”

Sherry was a person of action and she took Stella’s work from three years ago to the chief editor’s office the next day. After finished looking through them, Stanford Leif’s eyes fell onto the signature on the work and asked at length, “Sharon is your friend?”

“Yes, she’s really brilliant, and her design was awe-inspiring. We won’t suffer loss if we hire her.”

Stanford certainly knew how brilliant she was, yet Sharon was like a short-lived flower in the jewelry design industry which vanished after blooming for a moment. Someone said she had been out of ideas after receiving award and could no longer design new things. Others said rich men had laid eyes on her and she had secretly gotten married and had children. Anyway, there were all kinds of rumor.

It was just that to one’s surprise, she had actually come back after three years’ time, when everyone had forgotten about her. Stanford said, “Does she have time tonight? Let’s have dinner together.” Sherry knew Stella had basically secured the offer when he said that, and she instantly nodded. “Of course, I’ll inform her now.”

Stella had quite a nice chat with Sherry’s chief editor when they were having dinner. Although she had kept on claiming she had not picked up the drawing pencil these three years, Stanford still replied he was okay with that. He only wanted her to make a draft of a product according to a specific style within that week. If the boss thought there was not much problem about that, they would officially hire her.

The time was already a bit late when they finished their meal. Stanford said, “It’s not easy to call for cab in this area, you two girls are not safe by yourselves, I’ll send both of you home.”

“Great, I’ll go to the washroom first.” After finished, Sherry looked towards Stella, “Do you want to go?”

“Let’s go.”
