Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Just as Clarence reached the garden, he heard someone calling out to him from his rear, “Clare.”

He turned around and saw Justin, who was wheelchair-bound, sitting not too far from him quietly.

Clarence walked towards him and asked softly, “You heard everything just now?”

Justin nodded in response before adding, “I did. You’re not at fault here. I would’ve done the same if I were you.”

Clarence replied, “You could’ve chosen to steer clear of this mess.”

Justin gave out a helpless smile, “All I can say is that it can’t be helped.”

He belonged to the Conrad family, after all, his mother had done horrible things to Stella, he could not just look away and pretend that nothing happened.

Since he knew that it had gotten out of control, the least he could do was delay the inevitable.

Clarence sat on a bench, looked at the sun and said, “If you could be asked, I’ll find you a place that’s more suitable for living after everything is concluded.”

“What about my mother?”

Clarence replied in a deeper tone, “She had done horrible things, she must pay for them.”

Justin sighed and said, “Clare, I know that after what she’s done, she’s irredeemable. I am also terribly sorry for what happened to you and Stella. But what can I do? She’s my mother after all, everything she’s done is for my good. I can constantly feel her desperation and pain in the past twenty or so years, but look at me, I can’t even be a good son for her.”

Clarence shifted his gaze and said, “I won’t do anything to her, all I want is just her to get the punishment that she deserves.”

“If possible, I hope that I can at least lighten her punishment myself.”

Clarence did not say anything in response to that.

Justin thought to himself for some time, before saying, “Clare, just do whatever you want, don’t worry about me, I’ll be alright. If you really succeed in taking them down, I’ll be free at the very least.”

He finished his last sentence in a relieved tone.

It was as if he had been waiting to say that for a very long time.

Clarence looked towards him as his eyebrows furrowed.
