Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 698

Winnie was right. Chassell wouldn’t go to Channing’s university, and nor would he go to find the media.

Once this matter became known to public, not only Channing would be exposed, the other party that had bought the offer letter would be disclosed as well.

Channing wasn't the one who started this kind of trade.

If Chassell chose to expose this matter, many people’s interests and reputations would be inflicted.

They wouldn’t let Chassell get away with this.

Hence, Chassell was only using this matter to threaten her.

With a sneer, Chassell said, “You have balls to speak to me like this because Conrad Group is your backer. But Clarence Conrad has nothing to do with Conrad Group now. And I will cooperate with Conrad Group soon. Between you and me, whom do you think Justin Conrad would support? As for that boy, without the Conrad’s protection, he’s nothing. It’s effortless for me to kill him.”

Winnie looked calm. “Try it then. Before anything happens to him, I’m sure you will be ruined already.”

Putting on a sullen face, he was about to walk to her, and they heard the urgent knocks on the door.

He paused his pace, looking more annoyed.

After a moment of fumbling, the door was opened.

Stella appeared at the door. Taking a glance at Chassell, she strode to Winnie. “Are you alright?”

Winnie shook her head. “I’m fine.”

Seeing that things didn’t happen as he expected, Chassell was about to leave. However, when he only took a few steps, he was blocked by two upright figures appeared in front of him.

He thought he had seen the ghosting.

Clarence stood there and asked impassively, “Mr. Barret, what are you doing here?”

Chassell exhaled and tried to speak in a casual way, “I came to chat with Winnie. Mr. Conrad, since you want to see her, please excuse me.”

“Why so hurry?” said Clarence, “I haven’t met you for a long time, Mr. Barret. Why don’t you stay?”

As he spoke, he walked into the dressing room and sat down on a sofa.

After he entered, Elaine finally managed to squeeze in. She wanted to get inside but was pulled back by someone.

She looked back unhappily, only to meet Darnell’s cold gaze. She swallowed her complaint.

Darnell cast her a glance, and she understood right away. Then she followed him to leave the scene reluctantly.

Chassell was standing there with a long face. He wanted to leave as well, but he couldn’t.

Clarence was sitting there, looking at him. “Why? Mr. Barret, don’t you want to chat with me?”

Chassell had always been suppressed by Clarence. He had been hoping to work with Conrad Groups, but Clarence refused him several times.

Right now, he became even more irritated.

Why should he be inferior to Clarence Conrad?

Clarence wasn’t the powerful and frightening CEO of Conrad Group any more.

Hence, Chassell said rudely, “I’m here today to do the business negotiation with the current CEO of Conrad Group. I have nothing to talk with you.”

Clarence said, “Mr. Barret, what are you talking about? You can come to Winnie for a chat, but why can’t I go to you for a chat?”

“I have nothing to talk to you.”

Clarence said flatly, “I see. Mr. Barret, turns out you are aware that if you want to chat with someone, you need the person's permission.”

“That was because I didn’t do anything wrong, and that’s the truth.”

Winnie hissed, “Do you want the truth? I can call my assistant here. She will tell you what exactly happened tonight.”

Chassell stood there collectedly.

Justin cast a glance at his assistant behind him. The latter understood and turned away.

Justin wheeled himself forward. “It might take longer. Please have a seat first.”

Stella and Winnie sat down next to Clarence. Justin stopped beside them. Chassell sat down on the opposite side.

Clarence uttered, “Mr. Barret, are you calm enough to chat with me now?”

Since Justin was here, Chassell couldn’t be so arrogant as earlier. He tried to suppress his anger and asked, “What would you like to talk about?”

Clarence said, “I remembered four years ago, the Barret's invested a resort. When the project was half-finished, the construction site collapsed, and a lot of people died. In the end, the company in charge of the construction went bankrupt because of the compensation. Hence, the Barret's transferred the right of development to themselves and continued to build the resort.”

Chassell’s face had darkened already. “Why do you mention it?” he asked.

“Nothing. Just chitchat. Has the construction finished yet?”

“It's already done at the beginning of this year.”

Clarence continued, “Mr. Barret, why did you divorce? Can you tell us more details?”

“It’s my privacy. I’m sorry.”

“I see,” Clarence said calmly, “What a coincidence. Two months ago, rumors had it that Mr. Barret divorced because someone had acquired evidence of the resort’s construction accident four years ago. Your ex-wife is a smart woman. She didn’t want to be dragged into touble, so she directly divorced you.”

Chassell stood up instantly. “Bullshit!”
