Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 519

At the same time, in London, Britain.

The meeting was suspended for the third time. After the person in charge of the other party went out, Nathan whispered, “Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence leant back in his seat with one hand on his desk while tapping his long fingers on the table. He said indifferently, “They’re stalling for time.”

“Stalling for time?” Nathan was a bit puzzled, “But we’re already here, what for they stall for time.”

Clarence narrowed his eyes and glanced at the phone that was turned off, “You go out now and call the people in City N to see if anything happened.”

Nathan nodded, “Alright.”

Due to the importance of this meeting, the people on both sides who attended the meeting must turn off their phones.

And in the surrounding, there was almost no signal.

Not long after Nathan left, the person in charge of the other party came back and was grinning, which was different from the previous seriousness and strictness he showed, “Sorry for making Mr. Conrad wait for a long time.”

Clarence looked at him indifferently and did not utter a word.

Jon took a document from his assistant and pushed it to Clarence, “I had the contract reprinted. Take a look at it, Mr. Conrad. If there is nothing wrong, you may sign it.”

Clarence glanced at it and snorted coldly. He closed the document, threw it back and said in an indifferent tone, “Why don’t you just let me give you the Conrad Group directly.”

“Mr. Conrad, how can you say like that? Both of us are businessmen so we’re naturally talking about business, not to mention that if Mr. Conrad gives me the Conrad Group, I can’t afford it either.”

“I think you don’t consider yourself as a human either when you offer this term.”

When Jon heard this, he did not get angry and just said with a smile, “Mr. Conrad, when we do businesses, apart from taking into account the ultimate profit, we also have to see how many bargaining chips do we have, isn’t it.”

Clarence narrowed his eyes and his voice was with some coldness, “How many bargaining chips do you have.”

Jon said casually, “Well…”

At this time, the door of the meeting room was opened. Nathan hurriedly walked in and whispered in Clarence’s ear.

Instantaneously, Clarence’s face darkened. His facial features seemed to be covered by a large layer of frost and he was portraying a thick chill.

Nathan silently stood behind him.

Jon only then continued what he had not finished, “Does Mr. Conrad think that the bargaining chips in my hand are enough to get you to sign this contract?”

Clarence looked at him coldly, “How dare you threaten me.”

“Sorry about that, Mr. Conrad. Isn’t doing businesses always like this, the greater the danger, the higher the profit. If one doesn’t try his or her luck, who knows what the result will be?”

Jon looked at the document that was thrown over by Clarence and pushed it back again. He was still smiling, “But after meeting Mr. Conrad today, I feel that you’re quite different from what I’ve imagined. I previously quite admired you and thought you were the kind of person who is decisive and has no pity at all. Otherwise, how would you be in today’s position at a young age. However, I didn’t expect that you would sacrifice so much just for a woman.”

Clarence did not say anything and picked up the pen in front of him.

Seeing this, Nathan was shocked and could not help but say, “Mr. Conrad…”

Before his words were uttered fully, Clarence had already signed his name on the contract.

Jon applauded, “Mr. Conrad is really decisive, you’re truly admirable.”

After Clarence finished signing, he put down the pen. His voice was calm and waveless but with some coldness that would seep into one’s marrow and send shudders down one’s spine, “You better pray that she is safe and sound. Otherwise, you will disappear from this world with the Conrad family.”

After he went out of the meeting room, Jon withdrew his smile gradually and took the document on the table.

He really did not expect that Clarence would sign it so quickly.

Should he be described as hopelessly stupid or…he still had some other plan?

But now, his mission was considered done anyway.

Justin said, “They’ve arranged for the matter in London for a long time. If this plan fails, they won’t let Clare come back.”

“What does…not letting him come back mean?”

“Apart from tricking you into coming here, there is one more purpose that they held this reception tonight. That is, if something really happens to Clare, they can also logically let me inherit the Conrad Group.”

Stella gaped at him for a long time and said, “Are the ‘they’ you’re referring to including Dempsey.”

Justin withdrew his gaze, “Yes.”

Stella said incredulously, “He wants to kill Clarence?”

Justin gently nodded, “So I have no other way, I can only have you stay here for two days.”

Stella actually did not know what to speak for a moment.

When she packed luggage for Clarence that night, she initially thought he was just going on an ordinary business trip like before. But, she did not expect that going to London this time would surprisingly almost cost his life.

Thinking of this, Stella hurriedly said, “Then now he…”

“Don’t worry, as long as their plan is accomplished, they won’t do anything to Clare anymore. That is only a last resort. Clare is the president of the Conrad Group. If something happens to him in London, it will cause huge chaos.”

Stella pursed her lips, “Thank you.”

Since they had already done all this, it meant that they had been forced to the dead-end so they did not care anymore.

Therefore, if the plan tonight failed, they would really kill Clarence.

Fortunately…

Justin could not help but smile and was a bit upset, “It’s fine as long as you guys don’t hate me.”
