Chapter 26
rence closed his eyes and interrupted him, “Enough.”
He already guessed about it when Jeffrey approached him to ask for money and say the words just
now.
Knowing how to behave in a delicate situation, Nathan shut up.
“Why don’t you tell me earlier?”
Nathan said, “On the next day that you asked me to investigate, you and Mrs. Conrad have divorced. I
mentioned it to you that afternoon…you said you guys have divorced and her matter has nothing to do
with you.”
rence was very furious at that time. He was annoyed when he heard the word ‘Ste’, how the hell
would he know what was he going to say.
After a while, rence slowly said, “Tell SG Jewelry Magazine that those who perform well in this show
will get key support of the Conrad Group. There is no restriction on upation.”
The matter that happened three years ago was something he owed. Now, he was going to make up for
it.
But no matter what, she forged a pregnancy check sheet and came to his house to force him to marry
her. This was a matter that could not be changed.
…
Two days after the chaos of giving gifts, there was amotion in the office of SG Jewelry Magazine
once again.
“Oh my God oh my God! Mr. Conrad is really too infatuated. He surprisingly does things up to this
extent for the sake of Vivian!”
“This is too awesome. It’s the key support of the Conrad Group, which is equivalent to the chance in
which a variety of top resources are ced in front of you to be chosen. Mr. Conrad is totally intending
to support Vivian so that she can be in the highest position, his action is so lovey-dovey.”
Someone raised objections, “Isn’t it stated that there is no restriction on the upation so it isn’t
necessarily Vivian. Everyone that has been involved in this show should have the opportunity to
be the candidate.”
“Who will believe such a reason? It’s just an excuse used by those capitalists to give people the run-
around. During this period, Mr. Conrad has given our magazine a lot of benefits for the sake of Vivian.
Anyone with a discerning mind can see it.”
When the news reached the office of the chief editor, Stanford was silent for a long time. He had had
contact with Vivian several times and he somewhat did not like that person. He did not know why was
rence so intrigued and fascinated by her.
The problem was that, who could withstand upon seeing his action of spending like this.
It seemed that in the near future, Vivian was really likely to settle in SG Jewelry Magazine.
After Sherry finished shooting, she also heard about this matter. She was so angry that she gritted her
teeth. This wretched pair of woman and man was really having no moralpass.
Thinking that the free lunch that could be obtained without efforts was meant for Vivian, she did not tell
Ste about the bad news.
…
Ever since rence asked Ste to pay back the two million yuan within a month, she had been
thinking of ways in the past few days.
In order not to lose her only dignity, Ste agreed with it very quickly.
However, the punch of reality came even faster. Two million yuan was not a small amount for her. She
absolutely could not get that much money within such a short time.
SG Jewelry Magazine had signed a full contract with her and there would be six hundred thousand
yuan per year. This meant she could not take on other casual work outside. But, it was impossible for
her to go and get her sry for a few years in advance as it was not long since she signed the contract.
Ste thought calmly for a long time and finally made a decision.

However, before she could put this into practice, she received a friend request.
Looking at the familiar, simple and cold-toned avatar, Ste still had self-awareness. rence had
cklisted her for so long but now, he came to add her back. This was certainly because of the matter
that he wanted to let her pay back the money.
Ste was actually a bit annoyed. Since the divorce, she did not want to have any connection with
rence anymore. She knew that she had to pay back the money but if she still kept the contact
information, she always felt that her secret would be found by him at any time.
But if she did not ept it, it seemed like she did not want to pay the money back.
After half an hour, Ste epted his friend request and directly set that he was only permitted to chat.
She had already prepared to cklist him again as soon as the money had been paid back.
On the other hand, rence was sitting in the dining room of the Conrad family when he saw Ste’s
name return to his chat list.
“There isn’t a lot of things in thepany recently. If you have time,e back home more often, don’t
let me urge you to do so every time.”
rence stared at his phone while thinking about what should he sent to remind this insensitive and
stubborn woman that it was time for her toe and beg him.
Seeing that rence totally did not listen to his words, Dempsey said in a deep voice, “rence, I’m
talking to you, do you hear me!”
rence put the phone upside down on the table. He took the ss of water in front of him and took a
sip. He said indifferently, “Yes.”
Seeing his indifferent attitude, Dempsey became even more furious. But, because of rence’s power
now, he could not say any harsh words so he could only change the subject, “You should think about
what I’ve told you before. You’ll soon be 30 years old, you’re no longer young. It’s time to think about
the future. It’s just nice that you and Ste have divorced; she doesn’t deserve to give birth to the child
of the Conrad family anyway. This time, you should choose a woman with a good andpatible
family background…”
“I don’t n to have children.”
Dempsey froze for a moment and said furiously, “What did you say!”
rence’s voice remained calm, “No matter who my spouse is, I don’t n to have children.”
“What kind of nonsense are you talking about! What do you want if you don’t want children!”
“Children aren’t an essory or a necessity to me. If you want it that much, you can go and have
another one yourself.”
After finishing the words, rence did not look at him anymore. He got up and left straight away.
Dempsey was gasping. He was on the verge of being pissed off by him.
After rence walked out of the door, Joanna, who had not spoken, put down her cutlery and elegantly
wiped her mouth. She smiled mockingly, “It seems that your wish isn’t going to happen.”
Since rence took over the Conrad Group in the past few years, it became more and more difficult to
control him. So, Dempsey had the idea of training the next heir.
But because Dempsey was too afraid of rence, he did not dare to let him have a marriage that
involved business, fearing that his power would grow and be even more difficult to be controlled.
Therefore, when Ste appeared with the pregnancy check report, this undoubtedly let Dempsey who
was holding a wolf by the ears see hope.
Due to this, the Conrad family did not bother to check whether Ste was really pregnant or not. This
was not important.
In other words, if she was faking her pregnancy, Dempsey could even help her conceal it until the day
that she was really pregnant.
Since they were married, they would have children sooner orter.
But unexpectedly, something like that would happen afterward and she also had not been able to get
pregnant again.
After Joanna went upstairs, Dempsey frowned and pondered. Now, he increasingly felt that the matter
of taking rence back was a wrong choice.
Once the chess piece went out of the yer’s control, the whole situation of the chessboard would
develop in an unpredictable direction.
On the way back, Nathan asked, “Mr. Conrad, are we still going back to Starry Lake Mansion?”
rence closed his eyes and his nose let out a soft ‘um’ sound.
When Nathan saw that he looked a little tired, he tried to feel him out, “Do you need me to ask Mrs.
Conrad where she buys the headache medicine that she has been preparing before?”
