Clarence tapped the steering wheel gently with his slender fingers and said, "That's because no one has ever
thought of doing it before."
Stella was stunned when she heard his words, and she reacted in an instant.
Lyndon certainly knew Armand’s doing when he was in the Steward Group, it was just that he was nothing better
too. The reason behind Armand acting so reckless could be his inspiration and acquiescence.
In that case, Armand had no fear.
That was Lyndon’s company. No one will openly provoke him.
After a while, Stella said, "I know what to do."
Clarence let out a smile and turned to look at her. "Do you need my help?"
Stella said, "No, I can handle it. You just need to care about the Conrad Group’s affairs."
After a pause, Stella suddenly said, "By the way, what did you do the last time you came back during midnight?
Aren’t you going to tell me when we get back? "
There were too many things happening these two days and she almost forgot.
"It’s nothing. I just found Phoebe Steward."
"Where did you find her?"
Clarence was silent for a moment before he said, "It doesn't matter, as long as we’ve found her."
Stella pouted and was too lazy to quarrel with him. "How is she now?"
"In prison, her mental state is a bit abnormal."
Stella pursed her lips. "She’s always been lofty and arrogant. Now that she has fallen into such state, it’s indeed
hard for her to accept it."
Clarence said, "She deserves it."
"Well...what about Lyndon? Still no news?"
"No."
Stella said again, "Has Jeffrey and Chan's DNA report come out?"
Clarence licked his lips unnoticeably and did not speak for a moment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that, Stella felt that that was not good news.
If it was what she had guessed, Clarence would have told her.
Since he refused to tell her, that would be it.
After a few seconds, Clarence said, "Jeffrey’s already dead, his name will never appear in this world. It doesn't
matter whether he’s related to Channing anymore."
Stella could tell he was consoling her.
She leaned against the seat and slowly said, "I just don't understand why he would say such vicious words to Chan
who is his own son. It looks like he’ll be very happy as long as he destroys Chan's life."
"What noble sentiment can you expect from a man who is addicted to gambling?"
"But...no matter how cruel a tiger is, it will not eat its children. Even the most ferocious person won't be so cruel to
his son."
Stella seemed to have figured out something after she said that.
After a few seconds of silence, she then suddenly said, "Well it’s not impossible too. Pretend I didn't say it."
Clarence was baffled.
For the rest of the journey, Stella kept looking out of the window absent-mindedly. No one could tell what she was
thinking and she had been ignoring Clarence.
Clarence’s temple throbbed. After all, he was in the wrong and he did not utter a word again.
After getting out of the elevator, Stella looked at the door next door and asked casually, "There seems to be a child
in this family. Have you met the child when you go out?"
Clarence's expression remained unchanged and he answered blandly, "No."
Stella let out a grunt as a reply and followed him into the house.
After taking a bath, Stella sat cross legged on the couch. She sent a message to Sherry and asked her about the
progress of her blind date.
Stella, ‘How was the movie?’
Sherry, ‘It’s quite good. Winnie Truman's acting skills are superb. She deserves the title of the movie queen. That
movie made me want to get her autograph.’
Stella, ‘...’
Stella, ‘I mean, you and your blind date.’
Sherry, ‘It’s fine, there’s not much difference with the one yesterday.’
Sherry, ‘I don't know why, I just think he's a nice guy. I don't have that excitement when we watch the movie, and I
don't feel like I want to move on with him.’
Stella, ‘Did he still invite you for a second date after the movie?’
Sherry, ‘He said he has to go for a business trip tomorrow and he’ll look for me after he comes back.’
Sherry, ‘Let's see then. Distance makes the heart grows fonder. Maybe I’ll have feelings for him when he comes
back. It's not impossible.’
Sherry, ‘How about you? Have you found Madison Taylor? How did it go?’
Stella, ‘I found her, things went okay.’
Sherry, ‘Aren’t you going to the Steward Group tomorrow?’
Stella, ‘Yeah, I’m going tomorrow morning.’
Sherry, ‘All the best then. Go, girl!’
Stella smiled and chatted with her again. Clarence came out of the bathroom.
His black hair was half dry. He went to Stella and sat down. He glanced at her mobile phone. "What are you talking
about?"
"Nothing." Stella said, "Sherry went on a blind date, and I'm asking her about it."
Clarence asked, "Isn't she with Daniel?"
Stella let out a wry smile. "No, it's just...oh, I can't really explain it in a few words."
Speaking of that, Stella thought for a moment and asked, "What do you think of Daniel?"
Clarence put his hand across the couch behind her, played with a lock of her hair and said absent-mindedly,
"Average."
"Hey, be serious. It concerns Sherry’s happiness for the rest of her life."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmClarence rumbled, "Huh?"
Stella slapped his hand. "Don't you turn against those who supported you. She helped you a lot when you courted
me."
"Could I possibly turn against others faster than you?"
“…”
Before she spoke, Clarence said again, "So how did she help me back then? Bringing you and Emmett Carter
closer?"
Stella stammered, "That, that’s been a long time ago...Why do you remember it so clearly?"
She was then a little annoyed. "Forget it, I don't want to ask you anymore, you don’t give any constructive
suggestion."
Clarence snorted and smiled. "You don't have any patience at all."
He put his arm around Stella's waist, took her into his arms and said slowly, "I’ve inquired about Daniel, he has quite
a lot of girlfriends. He doesn’t look like someone who will stay for a relationship. But those relationships were ended
in peace, and there is no big problem with his character."
"Besides his romantic relationship, what else?"
"Besides?" Clarence thought and then said, "You must have known he is an orphan. William adopted him. Since
then, he has been working for William."
Stella said, "I heard before that he’s going to leave City N."
Clarence said, "Yeah, that's normal. He grew up abroad, and he only came to City N to solve the Steward family’s
issues. When it's done, he naturally has to leave."
"Will he still make music when he gets back?"
"Maybe."
Stella said, "I think he seems to be very interested in Sherry, but I can't gauge how much he feels about her and I
don't dare to bring them close again."
Clarence said, "They’re all adults, and they should know what’s best for themselves. There's no use worrying for
them."
