Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 717

Nathan looked at her face and probably guessed what she was thinking. So he said with his mouth twitched a bit, “It’s not what you think. It’s my mother. She was seriously ill ten years ago. It was Mr. Conrad who gave me a sum of money so that she could have an operation.”

Remembering that he had mentioned his mother several times before, she asked, “How is your mother now?”

He replied, “The surgery failed and she passed away.”

She was stunned and did not know what to say for a moment.

He said with a relaxed smile, “At least she received the operation. Otherwise, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life.”

On the way back home, she kept thinking about this matter.

Seeing that she was distracted, Clarence asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." She paused, and said, "I met Nathan downstairs."

He raised his eyebrows slightly. “What did he say to you?”

“Just…that he said he would always be by your side and that you might have forgotten something,” she said.

He said, “The matter of his mother’s surgery?”

She nodded and was a little surprised. “So you haven’t forgotten it.”

He said, “How can I forget such a thing? But if he wants to stay, I won’t use it to make him change his mind.”

Upon hearing this, she smiled, jumped into his arms, straddled on his legs and rubbed his face. “In fact, you are quite adorable.”

He wanted to tell her to stop when she cupped his face and kissed him.

Soon she backed away.

He looked at her and mutter in a throaty voice, “Don’t you want to eat?”

She said, “Yes, and we…”

Before she could stand up, she was held down by him on the waist.

He put her in the sofa and kissed her eyes. “We will eat later.”

She looked at him with moist eyes. “It will get cold later.”

“I will heat it up then,” he said.

She did not know what to say.

Without waiting for her to speak again, he kissed her lips, hands gently rubbing her exposed waist and continuously going up.

The atmosphere got steamier and gradually they were engulfed in the heat of desire.

…

On the other side, Sherry was lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

She thought about what Stella told her. If it wasn’t for Caesar, she wouldn't have miscarried.

Then she thought about Daniel, not knowing what happened to him now and whether he was injured.

The more she thought about these things, the more confused she became.

So she simply sat up and went to the living room for a glass of water.

When drinking water, she looked at the withering flowers on the windowsill, went over, squatted down, and poured the water into the pot.

She suddenly remembered that Daniel also grew some plants. Maybe his flowers were dying too.

She squatted on the ground for a while, then stood up suddenly, walked to the door, changed her shoes, took the car keys and left home.

When she arrived at the downstairs of the neighborhood she had rented with Stella, she parked the car and quickly went upstairs.

As she got closer to the place, she had a strange feeling in her heart.
