Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 770

Channing stared at Winnie with his lips slightly moved in silence.

She also looked up with a steady gaze.

She simply wanted him to know that in this world, he was always him and should not be bound by something unworthy.

After a few seconds of silence, the lights in the hallway dimmed.

He suddenly asked in a low voice, “What about you?”

She was stunned for a while. “Me…What?”

“Will you reject me because of those consequences that I should not bear?” he asked.

In the dark, she did not know what to say with her mouth half-open.

Was he setting her up?

Whatever answer she gave him would be a wrong one.

Whether she would reject him or not had nothing to do with this matter.

Well… How did they jump to this topic all of a sudden?

How come he suddenly asked such a question?

Within a few seconds, she had lots of thoughts on her mind. And she had never been like this, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, his phone rang.

With this sound, the light in the hallway lit again.

He saw fluster and bewilderment on her face.

She quickly withdrew her gaze and said, “It’s been a while, so we…We should go back.”

Just as she turned around, he said, “I still have the smell of smoke on me.”

She turned around and asked, “Then you…”

He said, “Can you help me with it?”

She got confused, “How?”

He walked forward and took her wrist, hugging her gently.

He said, “Your perfume should cover the smell of smoke.”

She got speechless.

He just hugged her gently and gave her enough space to step back.

But this only made her heart pound faster.

The light became dim again.

She even heard her heartbeat.

She whispered, “Did you stay downstairs all night that night?”

He remained silent for a few seconds but did not deny it.

She asked, “Why?”

“I feared that Chassell would come to you again.” He paused before adding, “Do you still want to ask me why I'm worried about that?”

The answer was clear enough.

She did not speak.

After a long while, she said, “Channing Radomil, I haven’t thought…”

This was the first time she called him by his name so formally.

He took a step back and said lightly, “We have to work later. So let’s keep it cool.”

She swallowed back her words.

He had a good point.

If things became awkward between them, later they would not be able to work smoothly.

And it might be awkward when they met in the future.

She suddenly understood why he had never expressed his feelings clearly.

He must have long expected that she would never say yes.

Sherry said, “Okay. Come on, guys!”

When they were shooting, Stella just waited on the side.

“What are you doing here silently?” Donald suddenly walked over and asked.

She breathed a sigh and withdrew her eyes. “It’s nothing. What’s wrong?”

He said, “Since the things were all done, when could I get my dinner? Tell me and I can empty my stomach in advance.”

She did not know what to say.

Then she said, “Give me some time. The outdoor scenes have not been shot yet. We have been busy recently.”

He asked, “What has Clarence been doing recently?”

“He is at Steward Group. What do you want from him?”

He was at a loss for words.

After he helped Vincent to have the child taken from City N to Riverside City, Clarence ignored him.

Well, he had to find a chance to explain to Clarence.

It turned out that his choice back then was right.

Clarence should thank him. However, he chose to ignore him, which was just so unreasonable.

She paused before asking, “Are you still in contact with Vincent?”

He wanted to say something but fell into silence.

Then he whispered to defend himself, “I can’t lie, can I?”

“Just speak the truth. I won’t do anything.” She said, “Is he in City N?”

He replied, “Yes. And he is looking into something and can’t show up for now. If you want to say something to him, I can help you with it.”

She thought about it, “I have nothing to say to him. As for what happened between him and Clarence… Well, just wait until another time.”

Although Vincent stayed by Clarence’s side and helped him all these years, he indeed deceived Clarence with his own purpose for over a decade.
