Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 773

Although the rain had stopped the next morning, the set couldn’t be used because it had rained for an entire day.

They had no choice but to delay the filming and redecorate the entire set again.

When Stella opened her bag after she reached her office, she realized that Clarence had unknowingly placed a tube of ointment into her bag.

She took the ointment out and opened it to take a whiff before she placed it by the window.

She felt relaxed as she was surrounded by the fresh floral scent after the rain had stopped and it was paired with subtle herbal hints from the ointment. Her mood was light and happy the whole morning.

Sherry came in the afternoon and said, “Stella, I’ve already sent the edited pictures to you. Choose your favorite picture to be used in the teaser so we can gain some traction from the public.”

Stella put down the drawing pen in her hand. “Alright, I’ll look at it now.”

Sherry said as Stella was looking through the pictures, “Stella, what fragrance did you use in your house? It smells so nice.”

Stella looked at the ointment beside her and gave a smile, “It’s to keep the mosquitoes away.”

“What?” Sherry glanced at her surroundings, “Are there mosquitoes here?”

“There’ll be a few bugs occasionally, but it’s not a big deal.”

Sherry sighed in relief, “That’s good. I was worried about this before, but I forgot because I haven’t seen mosquitoes in your office before.”

Stella replied, “There are quite a few bugs outside, but I’ve always kept the windows close. I’m sure this place would’ve been infested with bugs by now if I left them open.”

She finally decided on a photo.

And she said, “Let’s use this one.”

The beautiful face of Winnie were shown clearly while for Channing, only his profile could be seen.

It was perfect.

Sherry stood up and said, “Alright, I’ll make the arrangements.”

“Sherry,” Stella called out to her.

Sherry looked back, “What’s the matter?”

Stella hesitated for a moment before she said, “Have you developed the photos that were taken yesterday?”

“Only some of it. They’re at my office right now, I’ll bring them to you later.”

Stella replied, “It’s alright. I’ll go with you.”

As she said that, she took out something from her bag before she left with Sherry.

There were already quite a few photos that were hanging on the wall of Sherry’s office.

Some of them were taken yesterday.

Stella took down one of Channing’s photos and looked at it silently.

Sherry walked up to her and said, “Stella, do you have something on your mind?”

Stella looked up and paused for a moment before she let out a sound of confusion.

Sherry said, “I feel that you’ve been acting strange since yesterday. Is it because there are some problems with Channing’s photos?”

Stella shook her head, “No, that’s not it.”

“Then…”

“I suddenly realized that Channing… resembles my father when he was young.”

Sherry halted and exclaimed in shock, “Really?!”

Stella bit on her lip gently and found a picture on her phone. She placed it next to Channing’s photo and said to Sherry, “Here, take a look.”

Stella lowered her head, “You’re right, that’s why I haven’t decided on what I should do yet.”

After a moment of silence, Sherry said hesitantly, “Why don’t… you go to Daniel? He should have a solution. He even asked me about Channing’s matter when you returned to the Steward’s mansion. I think he is quite concerned about this as well.”

Stella replied, “But he’s still in the hospital now because he was severely wounded. I don’t think he’ll return to London anytime soon. I don’t think his subordinates would be able to get William’s DNA even if he asks his men to handle this matter.”

“What about Emmett? Isn’t he one of your father’s men?”

Stella muttered, “Nah, I don’t want to ask him for help.”

Although Stella didn’t explain what happened that night, Sherry understood that Emmett had pursued Stella for a very long time, and now…

It would be a wise choice for them to be apart and they shouldn’t be in contact with each other.

Stella continued, “I’ll think of another way. Since it’s something that happened such a long time ago, there’s no need to rush. Besides, I think my father will return to City N soon and it’ll be easier for them to go for a DNA test by then.

Sherry nodded, “Alright, we should just wait for now.”

Stella took the picture and thought for a moment, “Sherry, I have to go out in the afternoon. Call me if anything happens.”

Sherry replied, “I see. Alright.”

After she had finished speaking, she bluntly asked, "Where are you going then?"

Stella paused for a few moments and the words were on the tip of her tongue, but she stayed silent in the end.

Actually, she wanted to visit Daniel in the hospital.

She wanted to know if he had recovered from his injuries, and she also went for the sake of Emmett’s words. Although she didn’t believe it, she wanted to clear Clarence’s name and she didn’t want Emmett to simply taint his reputation.

Sherry seemed to understand after she saw Stella’s expression.

She immediately said, “Alright.”
