Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 677

After hanging up the phone, Stella felt her temples were popping. Her heart was racing as if it would jump out of her chest.

She tried to calm herself down. Then she dialed Sherry’s phone.

Sherry was taking photos of models. She swiped to answer the call. “Yes, Stella? What’s up?”

Stella asked, “Are you in the studio?”

“Yes, I am. I’m quite busy now. I'll call you back later.”

Stella said, “Sherry, listen. Something happened in Riverside City. I’m not certain if those people have the plan to carry on in City N. I’ve asked Chan to find you all. You must be careful in the following few days.”

Sherry was taken aback. She nodded subconsciously, “Oh, I see. Okay. I’ll go find Elaine right after shooting.”

“Okay. Call me if you need any help.”

Putting away her phone, Stella took a deep breath.

Although she might have been oversensitive, she could tell how ruthless those people were because they had killed several elders in Riverside City in just one night.

Hence, Stella must guarantee the safety of her family and friends.

She tried to call Archer and Dolores again, but their phones were still powered off.

Stella heard a weak voice from the bed when she was about to walk out of the ward. “Stella...”

At first, she thought she had misheard.

Then William called her again, “Stella...”

Stella hurried to the bed, only to find that William had opened his eyes. However, his eyes had no focus yet. Raising his hand, he seemed to be trying to grab something.

Stella bent over and held his hand. She said between sobs, “I’m here.”

William stared at the ceiling for a while. Then his eyes finally got the focus. He tilted his head to look at her with a weak smile. “Dad is here. Don’t be afraid,” he whispered.

Upon hearing it, Stella couldn’t hold back her emotion any longer. Fear and the unknown horror surged in her heart. She burst into tears.

William tried hard to raise another hand, patting her on the head. He comforted her, “It’s alright.”

Stella cried for a long time before gradually calming down. She wiped off her tears and said, “I’ll call the doctor over.”

Soon, the doctor came in to have an overall checkup on William.

Except that he was still fragile, William was fine.

The doctor said he needed to recover in peace. It would be better if he had limited visitors.

After the doctor left, William sat up while leaning against the bedhead. He said, “Stella, you said something had happened in Riverside City on the phone.”

Stella poured a glass of water for him. “You heard it?”

“Yeah, faintly. But I didn’t hear it clearly. What happened?” asked William.

Stella said, “The doctor said you need to recover in peace. Please leave those matters alone.”

William took the glass, had a few sips and coughed. “What about Daniel? Has he been found?”

Stella frowned slightly, shaking her head.

After a pause, she added, “Clarence is helping you manage the company. Don’t worry.”

William was silent for a moment.

Stella knew that Clarence didn’t leave him a good impression before.

She didn’t continue with this subject. Stella stood up and said, “I’m going to check with the doctor about your diet.”

Then she walked out of the ward.

While walking in the corridor, Stella received a call from Channing. He said he had arrived at the studio. Later, they would do what they should do. He asked her not to be worried.

Stella nodded and said, “Okay. Just wait and see. There shouldn’t be no other matters.”

Noah had been missing now, so she didn’t want any of them to be hurt again.
