Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Joanna uttered those words casually as if she was only talking about killing an ant.

Stella stared at her full of hatred, "Mrs. Conrad, you are a mother too, someone who is slightly more humane than

you couldn't have say what you said."

Joanna was calm, "What do you think my purpose is doing all this?"

"Do you think this is what he wanted?"

Joanna mocked, "What do you know? And Justin too, treating a bastard as his brother, what that bastard has now

should have been his."

Stella said emotionlessly, "The person you should take revenge on was the one that created that car accident

instead of throwing your tantrums onto innocent people."

"Innocent? What a joke. If it wasn't because of that accident, the bastard would not have come home and snatched

away what belonged to Justin!"

She still believed in her ideology that it was all because of Clarence after all these years.

Stella didn't think she could change her mind and she didn't want to waste her time here with her.

Joanna reminded her of the accident and her baby that didn't even get to see the world.

Stella didn't say anything and wanted to leave.

Joanna looked at her evilly, "Do you think you could just walk out like that?"

Stella stopped and turned to her.

"I thought you've become smarter but apparently not. You didn't notice that everything is set up for you tonight?"

Joanna said.

A shiver traveled down Stella's spine. Someone covered her mouth from behind the moment she tried running

away, and an injection landed on her arm the next second.

All her energy was drained out and she shut her eyes.

After she passed out, "Bring her upstairs and do as planned," Joanna ordered.

"Yes."

…

Vincent and Donald waited twenty minutes in the hall but didn't see Stella, they sensed something odd.

Vincent frowned, "Let's search separately."

But they didn't see Stella after one round of searching.

Donald was nervous, "What should we do now?"

Vincent said, "Ask them directly."

"If they hide her, they won't tell us."

"Don't care, we need to make a big deal out of this. We are putting her in danger if we do nothing."

Vincent walked towards Dempsey as he spoke, "Master Conrad."

Dempsey turned and looked at both of them unhappily, "What now?"

Vincent smiled, "Stella is nowhere to be found, could we trouble you to look for her, please?"

Dempsey remained calm, "I didn't even know she came, she's rude for not greeting me."

Donald spoke diplomatically, "That's not it, she didn't get to greet you, she's the CEO of the Steward Group now, it

will not be very nice if the public found out that she disappeared at Conrad's house party, I might really need to

provide you with legal consultation then."

Dempsey's face stiffened, "Ridiculous! She's no CEO and is nothing to me. Go have a look wherever you want, she's

more familiar here than anyone of you, she won't get lost!"

"Please do give us a hand and look for her. I'm the appointed lawyer of Steward Group, I'll lose my reputation if she

disappeared attending some party with me."

Dempsey held tight on his cane, annoyed, "You mean I hide her? And now I need to explain you?"

"No, we didn't mean it that way, we are just not familiar with the surroundings and hoping that you could help us,"

Vincent added.

While they were in arguments, someone approached, "We saw Ms. Radomil went out just now."

Vincent tilted his head, "When?"

"Five minutes ago, she left by car."

Dempsey said in dissatisfaction, "Do you still think that I have her hidden?"

Donald smiled, "Calm down please, we are just asking, you know Clarence, he will torture me if I lost her."

Vincent on the other hand asked, "What car and what's the registration number?"

"This…"

Justin came in his wheelchair and said, "I sent Stella home with Conrad's car."

Vincent and Donald turned speechless after that.

"She picked up a seemingly urgent call and asked me to inform you," Justin added.

After a while, Donald laughed, "I see, guess we worried too much, it's okay then if she went home."

Donald then pulled Vincent's arm and signaled him to leave.

Vincent slowed down after they left the hall, "Do you believe in them?"

"I'm a lawyer and I need proof for everything. I don't believe but since Justin said he sent her home, what else can

we do? Fight him?" Donald said.

"Stella knew the situation tonight, she would never let the Conrad send her home no matter what, so she's still here

for sure," Vincent said.

“I know, we both know what kind of a person Justin is, he is Clarence’s brother, the only kind person in the Conrad

family, don’t you think that something is not right about this?”

“Yes.” Vincent looked at him, “Compared to this if Clarence found out that you left Stella alone with the Conrad’s

family, he might kill you.”

Donald smiled, “Not me, us.”

Vincent ignored him and turned away to look at the surveillance cameras around.

If Stella left, the surveillance would have captured it.

Donald said, “For a safety measure, you go back to see if Stella is back while I stayed here for a little longer.”

Vincent nodded, this was the only way now.

Vincent said, “Don’t go anywhere until I call you, stay here no matter what, and if I failed to find Stella, asked them

to show you the CCTV recording or call the police.”

“Call the police?”

“Didn’t I say we need to make a big deal out of this so that she won’t be in danger?” Vincent frowned, “They did

everything just to hide her up, I guess they won’t hurt her for now, but they have some other intention, I

suppose.”
