Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 649

Looking at the convenience store that ran twenty-four hours, Stella said, “I want to get a bottle of water. Do you want one as well?”

“No, thanks. I’ll wait for you outside.”

“Okay. I’ll be right back.”

Then Stella trotted towards the store.

After she came out, she saw Clarence standing on the roadside and looking ahead, lost in thought. His figure looked aloof and proud.

She enjoyed looking at him for a moment before gradually going over.

Feeling her approach, Clarence came back to his senses and said, “Let’s go.”

Stella asked, “Are you sleepy?”

Before he answered, she continued, “If you are not sleepy, let’s have a walk nearby. I’ve overeaten just now. I want to digest.”

Clarence hummed in a low voice. He walked forward steadily.

Stella walked next to him and asked, “Last time you promised to take me on a trip after finishing your work this month. Is it for real?”

“Yes.”

“I can make time for it. Where do you want to go?” asked Stella.

Clarence faintly smiled, “I’m fine with anywhere. It’s up to you.”

Stella said, “Okay, I’ll choose a destination at random then. You can’t be too picky later.”

“When have I been picky on you?”

Upon hearing it, Stella felt a bit weird.

Amusement increased in Clarence’s eyes. He grabbed her hand and gripped it tightly, “I can go wherever you want to go.”

“Then... How long will it take you to finish your work?”

“A week or so.”

Stella nodded slightly, “I see.”

There were nearly no cars on the street at this time. They were walking on the street hand-in-hand, the light of the street lamps elongating their shadows gradually.

After a while, Stella suddenly stopped, “Clarence,” she called him.

“Ehn?”

“Let’s go registered for marriage tomorrow, shall we?”

Clarence stiffed and stood motionlessly. For a moment, he didn’t answer.

Stella said, “It will just take you a short while to get the certificate. You may leave your company for a short while.”

Clarence turned to look at her with his ink-black eyes, “Why do you suddenly want to get registered?” he asked.

Stella looked away, pulling out her hand from his grip, and continued to walk forward, “Nothing. I heard that someone said I’m your wife, but legally I’m not. I can’t be taken advantage of in vain. If you are unwilling, just forget it.”

Clarence followed her and explained, “I am willing to. It’s not been a good time recently. Can we go registered later?”

“What do you mean by later? One month later? Three months later? Or a year later?” Stella tilted to look at him, “Or, can you tell me why not recently?”

Clarence didn’t answer.

Stella asked solemnly, “Tell me the truth. Are you hiding anything from me?”

After a few seconds, Clarence answered, “I’m not hiding anything from you. I want to tell you after all things are finished.”

Stella fell into the silence and gave up asking him again, “All right. Forget it. But this time, you’ve rejected me. Next time, it’ll depend on my mood.”

Clarence was shocked.

He asked, “One month later? Three months later? Or a year later?”

Stella raised her eyebrows, “Not sure. You should have a long-term vision. Let’s say, three or five years later.”

Clarence was speechless.

Stella said, “All right. I’m sleepy now. Let’s go back.”

After entering the door, Clarence still hadn’t given up, “Can we just negotiate about the time?” he asked.

“No.”

“Okay. Let’s do it tomorrow.”
