Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

After breakfast, Elaine waved goodbye to Darnell and set off on her own.

Darnell stood in front of the hotel, one hand tucked in his suit pants pocket, quietly watching the direction she was

leaving.

The assistant came forward and lamented, "Miss James seems to have grown up quite a bit and is not as clinging to

you as before."

Darnell gave a slight sideways glance and the assistant immediately took two steps back.

It was only after a long time that he spoke, "Let's go."

Darnell got to the door of the room just as Nathan came out, and he said, "Master of Riverside, has verified that

they did have a previous problem with Miss James' friends."

In the room, several boys were huddled together, fidgeting and showing fear.

Soon, the door was opened again.

Darnell appeared in their line of sight, several boys instantly held their breath, and did not even dare to breathe

out.

One of them bravely said, "I ...... we really went for Aaron, she was with Aaron, we just ...... thought she was... ..."

Darnell interrupted lightly, "Which one of you hit her."

Several boys fell silent for a long time, and pointed neatly at one of them.

Nathan and Darnell's assistant waited outside, and within two minutes, the room door was opened and Darnell

walked out with his usual cold demeanor.

And there was a boy lying on the ground, holding his broken arm and wailing to attend.

Nathan followed Darnell and handed over a file folder: "This is the result of the re-investigation of that friend of Miss

James, similar to Vincent's previous investigation, but ......"

Darnell reached for it and opened the folder, and when his eyes fell on Aaron's name, Nathan's voice continued,

"Aaron was adopted by his current parents when he was nine years old."

Darnell removed a photo from the file folder, taken when Aaron had only just been adopted.

He gave something to the assistant next to him and his voice was cold: "Order them down and have them do it

tonight."

The assistant responded, "Yes."

Nathan asks, "Master of Riverside is suspecting that the person behind Jon is ......"

Darnell said, "Yes or no, we'll have the results soon."

......

Elaine carried her purchases, took her phone, looked at the address Aaron had sent her earlier, and finally found

his doorstep.

After she rang the doorbell, the person who came over was the maid, seeing her dressed simply and carrying a

canvas bag, she couldn't help but look a bit more contemptuous and disdainful: "Which one are you looking for?"

Elaine said, "I'm looking for Aaron, I'm a friend of his."

The maid said, "Our young master is not feeling well and is not seeing guests."

Elaine thought about it and handed over what she was carrying, "Then please give this to him for me, I won't go in."

"You take it back, our young master doesn't like to eat these."

Elaine slightly froze: "How come, I bought all the food he loves ......"

The servant said impatiently: "You should not take these small favors to please our young master, go back to where

you came from."

At this time, a car slowly came from the distance.

The maid opened the door in a hurry.

Inside the car, a middle-aged man lowered his window and looked at Elaine: "And this is?"

Without waiting for Elaine to say anything, the maid said, "He said he was here to see the young master and was on

his way back."

Elaine said, "I didn't plan to go back, she was the one who wouldn't let me in."

The middle-aged man's eyes lingered on her for two seconds: "Get in, I'll take you in."

Elaine pulled open the car door and got in: "Thanks."

The middle-aged man said, "You're a friend of Aaron's, right? What's your name?"

Elaine said, "Hello uncle, my name is Elaine."

The middle-aged man smiled, his expression changed briefly, then laughed, "I've often heard Aaron talk about you."

Elaine nodded politely and added, "How's Aaron, is he better."

"Is Aaron hurt?" The middle-aged man said, "I wasn't home last night, I just got back, let's go check it out together."

Elaine nodded, "Okay."

When the car stopped in front of the villa, Elaine got out of the car and followed him inside.

Aaron's mother was sitting in the sofa, her face didn't look too good.

Mr. Johnson said, "Where's Aaron, his friend is visiting him."

Mrs. Johnson looked at Elaine for a moment, "He's not up yet, what do you want with him."

Elaine put down the fruit and snacks she bought: "Hi Auntie, Aaron was injured and I wanted to come and see how

he was recovering."

"He's upstairs, second room on the right by the stairs, so go find him."

Elaine said, "I'll pass, as long as he's okay."

With that, she added, "Bye, Uncle and Auntie."

Elaine was just about to turn around when Aaron's voice came from the stairs, "I'll walk you out."

......

After the two figures disappeared from sight, Mrs. Johnson withdrew her eyes and frowned, "Who is this person, and

you brought her back home?"

Mr. Johnson sat next to her: "Did you hear that the Taylor family, those kids, offended someone last night?"

"Of course I heard about it, Aaron has always had problems with them, and that bruise he got, wasn't it from them,

they deserved it."

"I heard someone say that this seems to be connected to the Conrad Group and inquired if Clarence Conrad had a

niece before their accident."

"What's the point of inquiring about this?"

Mr. Johnson added: "I also received a message that the one from Riverside City, came to City H yesterday."

Mrs. Johnson's face changed and she jerked to her feet, "What is he doing here, he can't be ......"

Mr. Johnson continued, "I asked the girl who was just there, last name James."

......

Aaron took Elaine all the way to the front door and neither of them spoke.

When she got out the door, Elaine stopped, "Sorry about last night."

Aaron said, "It's me who dragged you into this, it's me who should apologize, what are you saying sorry for?"

Elaine said sincerely, "I thought about it for a long time and thought I shouldn't let you go to the hospital alone last

night, I'm sorry."

Aaron said, "I thought you said you were in a bad mood, but now you're better?"

Elaine was silent and nodded her head.

Aaron laughed coldly, "You wouldn't be in a good mood before you had the effort to think back to me?"

"Really ...... I'm sorry, I was looking at you as if you weren't hurt very badly, so I ......"

"Okay, I see that you are not in a bad mood either, you are in a hurry to meet your boyfriend." Aaron spoke

expressionlessly, "Elaine, is he that important to you, if you were to choose one between the two of us, would you

not hesitate to give up on me ...... as a friend."

Elaine was surprised, "How can you think that way, you are not even comparable. He is the most important person

in the world to me besides my father, of course I will choose him."

Aaron: "......"

He waved wearily at Elaine, "No see you off, bye."

Elaine thought about it and still said, "But I really think of you as my best friend, besides Natasha, it's you."

Aaron didn't want to pay any attention to her and turned around to walk away.

Elaine watched his back and sighed.

When Aaron got home, Mrs. Johnson pulled him in with a stony face, "Aaron, what are you doing?"
