Chapter 111: You Don’t Need to Beat Around the Bush
“What rumors did I spread? I’ve said the truth,” Liam said coldly, “Do you think she does everything for your own good? She
didn’t lead a happy life herself, so she ruined our relationship.”
Sherry had never expected that he would blame everything on Sherry so shamelessly. She laughed in anger, “Why? Did she
forced you to cheat on me risking your life?”
Liam didn’t answer. However, in his opinion, he always believed that if Stella hadn’t seen Jolie and him together, he could
continue being with Sherry and dating Jolie without any conflicts.
“Isn’t it her fault? Horace Jason is engaged. Her dream to marry into a rich family was broken, so she wanted you to be like her.
Sherry Perry, couldn’t you stop being so innocent? How could a normal woman dare not to let others know that she’s pregnant?
Probably she’s carrying a bastard that she even doesn’t know its father.”
Sherry was outraged, “What the fuck are you talking about? You scumbag!”
She wanted to rush over to him, but Stella stopped her. Looking at Liam, Stella said indifferent, “Don’t try to slander me so
hurriedly. I did found that you cheated on Sherry, but you were dating your secret lover aboveboard. Was it my fault?”
Sherry added, “I was so blind to love you jerk for so many years. You sicken me so much. I want to throw up!”
Upon hearing her words, Liam looked more annoyed. He warned, “You’d better be more respectful when speaking to me.
Otherwise, you can’t blame me for being rude!”
Right then, someone from the onlookers mashed a cup of coffee towards Liam and Jolie.
The coffee only stained Liam’s half sleeve. However, it completed wet Jolie’s whole face.
“Ouch!”
While Jolie let out the screen, Stella pulled Sherry to leave the scene.
Sherry and she were two women, and Stella didn’t think it would be necessary for them to get into a fight with Liam. If it
happened, they would suffer the loss.
Out of the selling office, Sherry was still furious, “How could that son of bitch so good at bullshitting? As soon as I thought that I
was in love with him for five years before, I’m so sickened! Jesus!”
As she spoke, she looked over at Stella, “Stella, all he said was bull crap. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Stella smiled, “Of course not. No worries.”
When Sherry was about to speak again, she felt that someone patted her shoulder. She turned around, only to find that a person
wearing a mask and hat was standing in front of them.
It wasn’t until now did Sherry recall that she also invited Winnie to shop when she came out.
Winnie came over after finishing her schedule. She was waiting for them at the gate of the selling office. Later, she heard a big
fight inside, so she went in to watch the fun.
Then she saw Stella and Sherry.
Stella seemed to realize something. She asked, “Did you smash the coffee?”
Winnie blinked, “Yep. I just bought it. It was still hot.”
Sherry felt delighted instantly, “Let’s roll. I’ll treat you to a big meal. Let’s go celebrate it!”
...
The CEO’s office, Conrad Group.
Nathan knocked on the door and entered, “Excuse me, Mr. Conrad. There was an issue with the real estate project of Plona.”
Clarence put down his pen and looked at him silently, his eyes cold.
Nathan shivered. He had a hunch that if he wouldn’t give Mr. Conrad a satisfying answer, his career life might end in this office
today.
Plona was a project developed by the real estate company under Conrad Group. Usually, such a trifle shouldn’t be reported to
the CEO of the group, let alone it was just a fight between two customers.
However, the key point was that Nathan needed to keep an eye on Stella’s daily activities.
Thinking of that, Nathan believed that his life was so difficult.
He coughed and tabbed on his phone to get the surveillance video at the scene. Then he put the phone on the desk and took a
few steps back.
The video was about five minutes. However, there were so many people and it was quite noisy at the scene. It was basically
quite difficult to understand what exactly they were arguing about.
However, thanks to Sherry’s harsh words, Clarence could hear clearly that Liam said “a bastard”.
He put down the cell phone, and his expression didn’t change. Indifferently, he asked, “Where is Stella now?”
“She’s having dinner with her friend and Winnie.”
“She’s in such a good mood, isn’t she?” Clarence said, “Get rid of the surveillance video. Check the identities of all people on site
today. Block the news and don’t let the Conrad family find it out.”
“Yes, Mr. Conrad,” Nathan answered.
When he was about to leave, Clarence said again, “Which company is he working at?”
Nathan understood whom he was referring to immediately, “He’s working in Group Wisdom Company. He was a bit capable, so
he was sent abroad for further education. After coming back, he was promoted to be a manager.”
“All right. Call the CEO of Group Wisdom Company. Tell him I’m interested in the project that he mentioned to me last time. I
want to know more details tonight.”
“Okay. I’ll do it right now.”
“Hold on.” Clarence looked at him expressionlessly. After a few seconds, he said, “You can directly tell me something happened
to Stella next time. You don’t need to beat around the bush.”
Nathan fell into the silence.
He did it because Mr. Conrad didn’t admit that he cared about Ms. Radomil.
Before Nathan could answer, Clarence withdrew his gaze. He said in a cold tone, “I don’t care about her. It’s just that she’s
pregnant, and the news can’t be disclosed to the Conrad family.”
Nathan understood and said, “Of course. Of course. I see, Mr. Conrad.”
Inwardly, he couldn’t help but praise that Mr. Conrad was way too good at making an excuse for himself now.
After Nathan left the office, Clarence picked up his phone and tabbed to call Stella. He asked indifferently, “What are you doing?”
On the other end of the line, Stella answered, “Having dinner with my friend...”
“I see. With the woman named Sofia Cooper?”
Stella was choked up.
She didn’t expect that the wretched man still remembered this made-up name of Sherry.
She let out a hollow laugh and ignored his question directly, “Mr. Conrad, since you’ve called me, what can I do for you?”
“Before asking me, shouldn’t you tell me what you’ve done today?”
He sounded as if he cared about him. If it were another couple, it was truly a greeting from a boyfriend. However, Stella sensed
some evil intention behind it.
After a moment of silence, she answered, “I was shopping with my friend...”
Clarence directly interrupted her, “How could you make tens of hundreds of people know that you’re pregnant by shopping?”
Stella hadn’t expected that he could hear about it so soon. She was startled for a moment and asked, “Mr. Conrad, have you
known it?”
“You’d better take along a speaker when you go out next time. You can inform the public as well as try the speed of spreading
the news.”
Stella knew that it was her fault. She could only say in a low voice, “I’m sorry. I didn’t expect such a thing would happen.”
Clarence said in a cold tone, “What’s the use of apologizing to me now? Why didn’t you foresee it?”
Stella lowered her head and didn’t speak.
She didn’t mean to do it. She never expected that such a matter would happen.
After a moment, Clarence said, “Stella, not mention the divorce, but at least you used to be my official wife in a right and proper
way.”
