Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 722

Winnie was puzzled when she saw the report on the internet and said, "Wasn't the security video deleted? Then where did this video come from…"

Stella explained, "Although the security video was deleted, don't forget that there were other cars around the entrance. Some of the cars had a dashcam."

Winnie had also thought of this but this happened a while back and it would be a huge task to find the cars that were there. Furthermore, she would have to search through their dashcam videos. That would take at least several days.

No wonder Stella asked her to come over. They must have known how to obtain the video and managed to locate it for her.

Winnie said, "Thanks."

Stella smiled and replied, "You're welcome. The dashcam video was not found by me. I just gave the video to a friend. That was a good piece of information for her to work with."

Winnie looked towards Clarence and said, "Thanks, Mr. Conrad."

Clarence stood up with one hand in his pants pocket, "No worries. It was just a lawyer's letter that I obtained with a phone call."

Winnie was speechless.

She wanted to say something but then something came into her mind and she hesitated. Then, her cellphone rang and it was her team who asked her about the contract termination.

The caller repeatedly tried to talk her out of it while Winnie calmly said, "I've already thought carefully about it. I will pay the penalties. Those of you who want to stay at the Conrad Group may do so. I also welcome those who are willing to leave with me."

Winnie simply ended the call after she said those. To avoid others from calling her, she thereafter turned off her phone.

Although she admitted that it was an impulsive move to terminate the contract, she did not regret her decision. When she walked out of the Conrad Group earlier that day, she had this feeling that she would not come back. This was a good opportunity for her to take a break from work.

Clarence looked at his wristwatch and said, "Let's go for dinner."

Winnie took a deep breath to compose herself and said, "You guys go ahead. I'll go back to think about all that had happened."

"What's there to think? Or are you trying to get out of giving us a treat?" Stella teased.

Winnie was speechless. How come she had to treat them to dinner?

Clarence said as he was walking out, "We helped you to save your contract termination penalties, shouldn't you give us a treat?"

Winnie was stunned as she thought, ‘Saved what penalties?'

Stella grinned and took something out while she said to Winnie, "Didn't you extend your contract with the Conrad Group two months ago? He did not sign it."

Winnie stared with her eyes wide open and recalled this matter.

It was the same every year. Clarence would settle his other work first. These contracts were considered less important by him and he would not sign them immediately. Winnie also did not pay too much attention to it and did not realize that Clarence had not signed the contract.

Winnie was in disbelief and said softly, "He seems to have become a different person."

Stella smiled, "Actually he's a nice man except for the occasional quirkiness."

Winnie clicked her tongue and said, "Okay, let's go for dinner. Call them over, my treat."

Stella paused and asked, "Call who?"

Winnie hesitated before saying, "Er… all of them."

Stella nodded, "Okay, I'll message them."

Sherry was lazing the whole day at home and did not intend to go out for dinner but when she looked at the news about Chassell, she sprung up and was eager to join them to scold that scoundrel. She quickly got herself ready for the gathering.

During dinner, because Channing was there as well, she had another motive.

Sherry asked, "Channing, are there many boys in your class?"

Channing replied, "Yes."

Sherry's eyes lit up and asked, "Are they handsome? Do they have a good figure? Will they accept a relationship with an older woman?"

"Go to the airport now and I'll have someone send it over," Clarence said.

"Okay," Nathan said.

Clarence ended the call and then proceeded to walk out of the private dining room. When he walked past Channing, he tapped on his shoulder and gestured him to go out.

Channing was being hassled by Sherry for his friends' contact and took the opportunity to get out of the room with Clarence.

They walked to the smoking area and Clarence took out a cigarette and handed him one.

Channing did not accept.

Clarence calmly said, "I won't tell your sister."

Channing said, "I recalled that she didn't want you to smoke either."

"Then do you think she'll allow you to smoke?" Clarence replied.

Channing was speechless for a few seconds before he reached over to take the cigarette.

Clarence said, "Your sister asked me whether a twenty-something-year-old boy who falls for someone would usually be too shy to speak up."

Channing did not expect this and pursed his lips.

Clarence said, "Relationship is a two-people thing. If you think too much, you'll end up distancing yourself from her."

Channing said, "Didn't you divorce my sister because of others?"

Clarence looked at him and said slowly, "Are you so certain that she'll marry you?"

Channing was speechless.
