Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 1069

After Elaine fell asleep, Darnell tucked her in, grabbed his phone from the side, and walked to the balcony outside the living room.

He lit a cigarette, bit it between his lips, and dialed back the missed call from half an hour ago.

"Master of Riverside, Jon has caught on, but he hasn't said anything."

Darnell hmmed lightly and exhaled a puff of smoke: "Any movement from the Barret family."

"Not yet, but I've put the word out that Jon is in our hands, and the ones we suspected before, we've sent people to keep an eye on them, so once they react, we can do it immediately."

Darnell answered, hung up, dialed another number and ordered, "Get all the information on Bob Thomas completely organized and bring it to me tomorrow morning."

There was a slight pause on the other end of the phone and immediately said, "Yes."

The name Bob Thomas is both familiar and unfamiliar.

The familiarity is that he was once the unanimous target of them all.

What is strange is that this person, who has been dead for more than ten years.

When Darnell returned to the bedroom, Elaine was already asleep with her head buried under the covers, curled up in a ball.

He walked over and gently moved her head out.

Elaine's face was a little red from holding it in, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed together, probably because she hadn't slept very well.

Darnell lifted the covers, lay down next to her, kissed her brow, and took the person in his arms.

He knew that she hadn't been happy for the past two years.

It's just that things are not completely resolved yet, so it's safest for her to stay in Switzerland at that time.

......

In the morning, Elaine and Darnell sat in the hotel restaurant, she took a bite of the snack in front of her and whispered to him, "These aren't as good as the ones I made, I'll make them for you when I get back."

Darnell laughed wordlessly, "Good."

Elaine was halfway through her meal when her phone vibrated. She looked at the screen and it was Aaron calling.

Aaron said, "Are you up yet."

Elaine took the milk Darnell handed her and sipped it, "Up and about."

"Then go downstairs and I'll meet you in the lobby."

"What's up."

"You hurry down, there is something for you, don't dilly-dally, I'm still wounded here."

Before Elaine could say anything else, Aaron hung up.

She skimmed as she held her phone, put down the milk and got up to Darnell, "My friend is here to see me, you eat first, I'm going down and will be up soon."

Darnell said, "Go ahead."

Elaine turned and trotted away.

She arrived at the lobby and after looking around, she found Aaron sitting in the couch playing a game.

Elaine walked over and sat across from her, gasping slightly, "What do you have for me this early in the morning?"

Aaron didn't look up: "Don't rush, wait for me to finish this game."

Elaine: "......"

She could only sit there, bored and playing with her phone.

After a few minutes, Aaron finally finished playing the game and picked up the bag next to her and gave it to her.

Elaine wondered, "What is this?"

Aaron said, "Apology gift."

Elaine: "?"

Aaron said, "I admit that I have not been nice enough to you for the past two days, and you were tied up by them because of my involvement, so I can't get over it no matter how I think about it."

Elaine smiled and put the paper bag aside: "It's okay, aren't we friends? Even if they didn't kidnap me in that situation, there's no way I would have left you on your own. What's more, I don't think there's anything wrong with your attitude, if it was me who encountered this kind of thing, I wouldn't be in a good mood either."
