Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Back in her room, Elaine collapsed on her bed and fumbled with her phone, scratching away in boredom.

Nothing but a Twitter number to follow and a system message.

Even Natasha, didn't send her one.

Elaine has been trying not to search for any news about Riverside City and not to inquire about anything, as if this is

the same as every time she used to come to City N. After having fun for a while, she went back and Riverside City

remained the same as before.

After staring at the phone for a while, Elaine went into the bathroom to take a shower, and then lay back down on

the bed, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep in a short while.

It was the first time she had really, really fallen asleep since she left Riverside City.

The next day Elaine got up early again, and her whole spirits looked much better.

After breakfast, when Clarence wanted to take Noah to kindergarten, Elaine volunteered, "I'll go, I'll go, I don't have

anything to do at home anyway, I'll be in charge of picking him up and dropping him off this month."

Clarence gave her a sideways glance and handed her Noah's book bag.

Elaine took it, held the little one, and the two bounced away.

When they left, Clarence looked to Stella: "What month?"

Stella put down little girl's bowl and slowly spoke, "It's ...... me telling her that I'll take them to Riverside City when

Noah is out of school for the summer."

Immediately after, she added: "Anyway, Noah and two little girls, both miss their grandmother every day, so it is

good to take them over to see."

The two little girls smiled and waved their little hands at the same time and spoke one after another.

"Grandma~"

"Grandma~"

Clarence looked over at them, "There you go, two repeaters."

"Read the chicken~"

"Read the chicken ......"

Seeing that they had something to say, Aunt Zhang took the two children away.

Stella spoke tentatively, "Is it not working? If it doesn't work ......"

Clarence raised his eyebrows slightly: "When did you hear me say no to you like that?"

Stella: "......"

Why do you think this sentence is weird.

I blame this dog man, always playing rubbish, so that now she listens to what he says, she feels that it is in the

words.

Clarence got up, "Well, no more light bulbs today, I'll walk you to the studio."

Stella laughs, "Let's go."

The two of them have a clear division of labor, with Clarence taking the little one to kindergarten in the morning

and Stella going to the studio after feeding the two little girls breakfast.

In the evening when the little one is out of school, Stella goes to pick him up and take him home.

Clarence usually comes back late and occasionally works late.

Sitting in the car, Stella said, "Do you think Elaine seems to have grown up a lot this time."

If Elaine used to have eyes full of light, looking at anyone happy and pure, she is now, the light in her eyes is gone,

just seems to be trying to keep it up and make herself look happy and relaxed.

Clarence held the steering wheel with one hand and spoke lightly: "She is not young, it is time to mature a little."

Stella bristled: "I wish she could always be as pure as a child, what's wrong with a girl being kind and cute."

Clarence said, "Haven't you been working part-time outside of class since middle school? Knowing so much about

people and their interests doesn't stop you from being kind and lovely."

Stella: "......"

There is something wrong with this person.

Stella didn't bother to pay attention to him and continued, "She was originally a little princess who grew up in a fairy

tale world, all things look beautiful in her eyes, if she has someone around her who can protect her for the rest of

her life, then why must she face this cruel world."

Clarence was silent: "You're right."

Stella: "?"

It's not right, he didn't play his proper level in this fight.

After a while, Stella couldn't resist saying, "Say a few more words, I haven't made enough noise."

Clarence hit the steering wheel: "You win, I concede defeat, can't argue with you, and what's more, you're really

right."

"Where is it right?"

Stella decided that if he couldn't say it specifically, she'd found another point she could cut to.

Clarence said, "It was my failure to protect you for the rest of your life that made you come out early to face this

cruel world."

Stella: "............"

It is not necessary.

She whispered, "I'm talking about the matter, where are you going with this?"

Clarence stopped the car, turned his head to look at her and said seriously, "I'm not kidding, you're right, I'm the

one who's underthinking."

Stella had a hard time accepting his serious look and unnaturally rubbed her neck: "Well, I was just saying that,

don't take it to heart, and we're not talking about Elaine, why are you substituting yourself again."

Clarence said, "I was reflecting on myself."

Stella looked out the window and noticed that she was already at the studio door, she reached out to open the

window, "I'll go to work then, take your time to reflect."

She was just about to leave when Clarence pulled her back again.

He looked at her with downcast eyes, "That's a pretty good lipstick number today."

Stella didn't have the heart to say, "I'm almost out of this one, and you're just finding out now?"

Clarence raised his eyebrows slightly, "Then I'll re-buy it for you."

"No, there's plenty more at home ......"

Before her words were out of her mouth, Clarence was caught off guard and lowered his head, biting her lips and

eating her lipstick dry.

It took nearly half an hour of dawdling in the car before leaving.

Stella got out of the car, while refilling her lipstick, while walking inside, should have known not to let him send, the

dog man never go empty-handed every time.

She had just entered the studio when Elaine ran over in her work clothes: "Sister."

Stella stopped in her tracks, "Elaine, how are you ......"

Elaine skillfully tied up her hair: "Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I'm here to help, don't worry, I'm already familiar

with the process, I won't add to their mess."

Stella nodded, "Okay, go ahead then."

It's good to do something to distract her.

So, Elaine kept herself busy, getting up early every morning, sending Noah to kindergarten, then going to the studio

to work, and then rushing to work in the evening to pick up Noah, and coming home to play with two little girls.

She thought that a month would pass quickly, but when she stopped to look at the time, she found that only a week

had passed.

Elaine leaned against the wall somewhat sluggishly, the time is so hard ......

At that moment, a voice came from outside: "Elaine, did you find it?"

Elaine hastily perked up, picked up the contents of the shelf in front of her, and answered, "Found it, here it comes."

Just after leaving the warehouse, a staff member said, "Elaine, there is someone there looking for you, saying he is

your friend."

Elaine looked over and not far away, Ariel was standing there with her hands clasped to her chest, looking at her

with an uncertain expression.
