Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Elaine heard from Darnell that her uncle was the mastermind when she was taken away and locked up for a few

days before. She did not believe Darnell’s words.

However, what she drank last night was juice, so how did she end up passing out?

And in the private room, there were only she and her uncle.

After hearing that something almost happened to Stella, although Elaine did not believe Darnell’s words, she could

not help but start to feel afraid in her heart.

Stella said softly, “Elaine, I know it may be difficult for you to accept it for a while. But these things were indeed

done by Caesar.”

When Elaine heard her words, her eyes were reddened and she said anxiously, “But...But my uncle was good to me

when I was a child. He would never hurt me, nor would he do such a thing. So could it be that it was a

misunderstanding?”

“It’s not a misunderstanding, Elaine. People do change.” Stella said, “Have you ever wondered why your

grandfather and your father have never mentioned anything about your uncle all these years? Even when

something so big happened to your family, Caesar did not show a trace of anxiety or worries about them.”

Hearing her say this, Elaine finally realized that something was not right. She opened her mouth but did not know

what to say.

Stella added, “Maybe his feelings for you are not false and he never wanted to really hurt you, but that does not

mean that he won’t hurt others, Elaine.”

After saving Elaine last time, Darnell did not tell her the truth of the matter. Just like Clarence said, Elaine would not

believe Darnell’s words. What was more, no matter what Caesar did, he always behaved like a good-old uncle in

front of Elaine.

Although Caesar used Elaine twice, he did not let her suffer any harm for real.

Stella did not know what Caesar experienced in Riverside City, but she could feel that even in the heart of Caesar

who had done so much bad, there was always a clean and soft spot.

For Caesar, this place belonged to Elaine who had believed in him unconditionally since her childhood. She relied on

him. Even after ten years, when they met again, she was still the innocent and lovely little girl who was happy and

jumped up in joy to see him alive, calling him “uncle”.

She grew up being well protected. Except the people she hated, there was no absolute bad guys in her life circle.

She could not see the evilness of Caesar, nor could she understand how bad he really was.

The reason why Darnell told her the truth this time was because she was too defenseless against Caesar.

She just fainted last night. But nobody knew what would happen next time.

She kept her head hanging, looking sad.

Stella rubbed her head. “Elaine, there is no absolute right and wrong in this world sometimes. If in your heart, this

person will never hurt you and he is worthy of your trust, then you can keep your feelings for him. Because you are

also a special existence to him.”

Elaine raised her head with red eyes. “Really?”

Stella said, “Yes. It’s just that you need to know at the same time, he will still go on to hurt others, possibly even the

people closest to you.”

Elaine listened and got a little confused, sitting in a daze.

“Caesar is just your uncle. Besides this, he is another person.”

Elaine finally understood.

Stella asked her, “Have you eaten your breakfast yet?”

“Not yet...”

Stella took out her phone. “What do you want to eat? I will order it for you.”

Stella had said all she could say. Elaine was able to tell right from wrong. Otherwise, she would not be so sad when

she learned the truth.

Stella just said these words to make her feel less sorrowful.

...

It was not until noon that Sherry came back.

When Sherry saw Elaine, she raised her hand and was just about to greet her, but Elaine turned her head and ran

away.

Sherry looked at Stella and asked in confusion, “What is wrong with her?”

Stella pulled her into the office before she spoke, “She already knew that those things were planned by Caesar and

felt ashamed to see you.”

Sherry froze for a moment before she smiled helplessly. “Poor child.”

Stella asked, “Have you gotten a new SIM card?”

Sherry stretched herself. “It’s done. It took me a whole morning.”

Then she added, “Are you better from the cold?”

Stella nodded. “Much better.”

“Good. Then I will leave you alone. I am going out to work.”

“Sherry.”

Hearing Stella calling her name, Sherry turned her head. “What’s wrong?”

Stella looked at her but could not say anything in the end. So she simply smiled. “Nothing. Go ahead.”

Sherry waved at her and left the office.

Stella sat down at her desk again and let out a long breath.

By the afternoon, Stella finished drawing a new draft. She stood up and moved her neck, picked up a water cup and

was ready to go out to get some water.

Just as she walked outside, she heard the guests of the studio discussing what happened to Steward Group these

days.

But what they were discussing was not the plunge in Steward Group’s stock price, but the fact that Steward Group’s

stock price was now rising like crazy and many people could not even buy it even if they wanted to.

She felt confused at their words. When she got to the tea room, she took out her phone. The first news that popped

up was that Complex Corporation had made its first round of financing for Steward Group.

In addition, Southwest also reached a strategic collaboration with Steward Group.

These two pieces of news came out at noon, one after the other.

Both Complex and Southwest were big enterprises with international reputation.

One was in London while the other was in Auckland.

If the news were true, not only could Steward Group avoid going bankrupt and collapsing, it would even open up the

market of Europe and Oceania.

Its future development was simply promising.

Now there was no need to figure out the relationship between Steward Group and these two enterprises. People

only knew that if they could not buy in Steward Group’s stocks, they would lose a lot.

All of a sudden, Steward Group’s stock price roared, even surpassing the peak of Conrad Group.

If Stella guessed it right, Southwest was the enterprise that Clarence said he had casually invested in.

She clicked in a link and searched for information. Southwest had very little information in China. But on the forum,

there were people who kept popularizing it.

She got to know more about Southwest little by little.

Southwest started out with just two or three young people. They were repeatedly frustrated with the start-up of the

company. When they were about to give up, they suddenly got support from a mysterious person.

After that, the company grew rapidly. In just three years, it stood at the top of New Zealand, cooperating with

countless multinational companies, wining every big project, and gaining the greatest benefit.

It was a legend in the industry, and a hot pie that everyone desired.
