Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Chapter 991

Elaine lifted the blanket and, holding back the pain, limped out.

Touching the door frame to look out, she found the quiet corridor was empty.

Elaine looked back and saw her suitcase sitting aside the door.

She pulled on the suitcase and moved forward in pain.

It was hard to get down the steps, and by the time she reached the ground floor, she was tired and sweaty, and the place where she had fallen was even more painful.

Elaine took a deep breath and lifted her chin slightly, ready to maintain the dignity she had left and leave the place to forget the awkwardness she had before.

She had just taken a few steps when she smelt the fragrance of food.

It awakened her dormant hunger.

Elaine glanced at the dining room and couldn't move her eyes, nor could she move her feet.

She was starving.

The whole house was silent, and everyone seemed to be asleep.

"Just eat a little before I go."

Elaine put down her suitcase and saw that all the food was just right to eat.

Having been hungry for too long and dizzy, she practically wolfed down her food without any elegance. Halfway through her meal, she choked and got up to find water.

A male voice sounded when she felt like she would choke to death. "There's soup."

Elaine felt embarrassed.

She jerked her head around and looked into the living room. When was he there?

Darnell put down the paper in his hand, stood up and approached her.

Elaine unexpectedly met his gaze and hurriedly averted her eyes, finding a ceramic soup pot with a lid and soon drinking two spoonfuls regardless of anything.

Darnell sat opposite her. "How long did you fly for?"

Elaine lowered her eyes and whispered, "I don't remember."

Seeing her in constraint, Darnell asked, "Are you full?"

"No. "

"Then continue."

Hearing him say that, Elaine slowly picked up her chopsticks again and ate with much more civility.

Darnell looked at her for a moment. "I don't know your favorites, so I had them make some randomly. You can talk to them yourself to prepare what you like tomorrow."

Elaine muttered. "No need, I'll go back to Switzerland tonight."

Darnell checked the time. "Okay, I'll take you to the airport later."

Elaine lowered her head more in silence.

When she couldn't control her tears falling on the table, Darnell found that she was crying.

Darnell's eyebrows twitched as he said in his calmest voice, "Didn't you want to go back tonight?"

Elaine choked out, "I've fallen like this, and you still let me go. You are so cold."

"Take a private jet."

"Then you should let my father pick me up. I'd rather stay in Switzerland for the rest of my life. Never come back."

The more Elaine said, the more aggrieved she became, sobbing.

Darnell rubbed his brow helplessly, got up, and sat next to her, gently patting her back. "It's easy to choke when you cry during eating. Don't you know it?"

Elaine sobbed hard. "I'm going to die of pain. Maybe choke to death is better!"

"Where does it hurt? I'll ask Archer to take a look."

Hearing him say that, Elaine took the courage to look at him and poke her heart. "Here."

Darnell frowned slightly, "How?"

"You have a girlfriend, so it's aching here."

As she spoke, she cried even louder.

Darnell felt speechless.

"Elaine."

Elaine was now aggrieved, and in pain, so she wasn't afraid of him and cried so hard that she couldn't catch her breath.

Darnell finally lost his words but took two pieces of paper to let her wipe her tears.

Elaine did not take it, choking. "I know you hate me, but you stayed with another woman when I came back so far to see you. When you first rejected me, you were so cold, not even answering my messages. We still have had a marriage contract, but now you're kicking me out. You want me to stay in Switzerland for the rest of my life, right?"

Speaking of this, Elaine became even more uncomfortable and cried, bending over the table.

It looked like she was so sad that the whole house echoed with her crying.

Darnell had never seen a girl crying, much less knowing how to comfort her, so he sat in silence.

Only when Elaine calmed down a little did he say, "I'm not kicking you out. You can stay here as long as you want."

Elaine raised her head slightly, looked at him through her messy hair, and sobbed, "Then can I stay here all the time and not go back to Switzerland?"

"No."

Seeing that Elaine would start crying again, Darnell pressed his temples and compromised, "She's not my girlfriend."

Elaine sat up some more with her face full of tears, "Then why was she wearing your pajamas while you were in the bathroom taking a shower? You guys…"

Darnell was concise. "Coffee spilt. I don't know when she changed her clothes."

Although her tears were still falling, Elaine's mood was much better.

"Go upstairs and sleep."

Elaine said pitifully, "It hurts."

"Then how do you walk downstairs?"

Elaine puckered her mouth and wiped the tears. "I felt too ashamed, and I thought she was your girlfriend. I didn't want to ruin your relationship."

"You don't feel ashamed now?" Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Elaine lowered her head again, looking so adorable.

"Not eating anymore?"

She whispered, "Yes."

Could anybody continue eating?

Darnell leaned down and picked her up directly.

Elaine was unprepared and cried out in surprise, looking up at him.

Darnell was indifferent. "I won't care about you next time you walk downstairs like this."

Elaine spoke tentatively, "Then will you carry me every time?"

"Someone will bring the food to your room."

Elaine protested, "I'm not a prisoner, and I need to move around. It's hard for me to stay inside for a long time."

Darnell glanced at her, "When you were fighting with your dad, you often locked yourself in your room, not eating or drinking."

Elaine sheepishly averted her eyes as she stammered, "That was so long ago. Anyway, I don't like to stay in my room now."
