Chapter 70
rence stood up and said in a t tone, “I will give you three days to consider about this. You can tell
me what else you want. If you miss this opportunity, you will not be able to get what you want again.”
He stopped when he walked to the door and said slowly, “If you can make your decision earlier, you
brother would not have given up his promising future for only one million.”
Ste bit her lower lip tightly with a pair of red-rimmed eyes. She was trying so hard to suppress the
impulse to shed tears.
After rence’s leaving, Ste pulled out the infusion needle on the back of her hand.
She walked towards the entrance of the hospital while calling Sherry. She learned from Sherry that
Channing had resigned from the convenience store and that Channing was nowhere to be found.
When Sherry met with Ste, she was startled by Ste’s pale face and red-rimmed eyes. She asked,
“Ste, what’s wrong with you?”
Ste shook her head, “Let’s find Chan first.”
When it was getting dark, they finally got in touch with Channing. Ste asked in a calm voice, “Chan,
where are you now?”
“I’m having a military training.”
“Give me your address.”
Channing, who was at the other end of the phone, was silent for a while, “The school doesn’t allow
outsiders toe in during the military training.”
“Give me the contact method of your teacher or military instructor. I will have a talk with them.”
Channing was muted.
Ste felt extremely tired. She repeated the question, “Chan, where are you?”
Actually, Channing found a job in the vicinity of University A. He thought that if Ste came to the
university to find himter, he could lie to her that he was having a part-time job here and he thought
that Ste wouldn’t doubt it.
But he hadn’t expected that Ste would find out the truth so soon.
After a long while, Channing replied, “Stay there. I will go to find you.”
While waiting for Channing, Sherry learned from Ste about the whole thing and she didn’t know how
to console her at the moment.
Sherry knew that Jeffrey was a despicable person. Ste and Channing had been supporting each
other since childhood and Sherry was clear that Channing was the most important person for Ste.
Now Channing gave up his promising future and sold his admission letter to University A to the other
person, no wonder that Ste would be so anxious and angry.
Half an hourter, Channing arrived at Ste’s house.
Thinking that it would not be suitable for her to stay here under such circumstance, Sherry found an
excuse, saying that she had to go out to buy something, and left.
Ste took out the bank card that Channing gave her before and put it on the table, “Is it because of
Jeffrey?”
Ste suspected it was because of her father’s debt because Channing happened to give the card to
her after Adolph came here to ask her to pay the debt.
Channing just stood on the spot. He didn’t ask Ste how she knew about this and simply said, “I’m
afraid that they will not let go of us easily. They have no moral bottom lines and they can do everything
to achieve their goals. I think that even if there’s an emergency, you may protect yourself with the
money in your card.”
“Chan…”
Channing said in a rxed tone, “It’s good that you didn’t use the money to pay Jeffrey’s debt. I’ve told
you that I will support your life. Although there’s not too much money in the card, it can support your life
for a period of time. Later, I will…”
Ste interrupted him, “Chan, you gave up the admission letter to University A, do you know what it
means to you?
Channing paused and then replied, “You also gave up the opportunity to study in Paris, didn’t you?”
“I gave up the chance before and I know deep down what I’ve missed, so I don’t want you to regret it.”
“I won’t regret it. Even if I can’t study in the university, I can still…”
“You’re just 18 years old. What do you want to do if you don’t go to the university?” Ste fixed her
eyes on the card in front of her, “There’s no point to return this card to that person now, right?”
Channing nodded his head.
One million was nothing in the eyes of those rich people. But for them, the deal had been closed and
Channing wouldn’t have the chance to regret it.
Ste said, “I will solve this. Chan, wait for my news.”
Channing subconsciously furrowed his brows, “How are you going to solve it?”
“I will make a way out. Chan, please remember, don’t give up your future for the sake of me or the
other person. If… If I sessfully solve this problem, I hope it will be the end of this matter and that
you cane back to the university.”
Channing still wanted to say something, but Ste interrupted him, “Let’s stop here today. I want to
have a sleep now. You shalle back earlier.”
When Channing walked to the door, he seemed to have sensed something fishy and turned around
and said to Ste, “This’s my choice and I can bear the consequence. You don’t need to beg him.”
Ste curled her lips into a light smile, “Who tell you that I want to beg him? It’s just a normal
transaction.”
“What transaction?”
“It’s a matter between adults. You should just focus your study.”
Channing was rendered speechless.
…
When Sherry came back, she saw Ste sitting on the sofa and seeming to be lost in her thoughts.
She walked over and asked in a low voice, “Ste, did you make it clear with Chan?”
Ste was pulled back to reality, “Almost. I will go to find rence tomorrow. There will be no problem.”
“Will rence help you? I will have to appreciate his mercy if he doesn’tugh at you.”
Ste was stunned. After several seconds, she replied, “Maybe he will.”
After finishing the words, she stood up and said, “Sherry, I’m a bit sleep and I have to go to bed now.”
“Okay, good now.” Sherry seemed to think of something and continued, “You should go to the hospital
to have a pregnancy examination two dayster. Let me go with you.”
Ste paused. She didn’t turn around and simply replied in a low voice, “Let’s talk about thister.”
Ste went back to her bedroom. When she opened the wardrobe and was about to take out some
clothes for changing, she uncontrobly looked aside.
She then took out all the small clothes and small shoes and sat down on the bed. She studied them for
a long while.

Even since she learned about the existence of this child, Ste had never expected that rence
would be mercy to it and she had expected every possible attitude that rence would have. But when
this really came, she finally realized what she was afraid of the most.
She lost a child when she was pregnant for four monthsst time.
Maybe this was the destiny.
If this child was aborted, she and rence would not have any rtionship again.
On the next day, Ste took the document given by rence to the Conrad Group.
When she arrived at thepany, she saw Modesty quarreling with a receptionist, “Why the designers
of SG Jewelry Magazine are allowed to enter thepany? Why wasn’t there such a rule when I came
herest time?”
The receptionist replied politely, “I’m sorry, Lady, I’m not clear of the details.”
“If you’re not clear of it, why don’t you make a phone call and ask about it? Ie to Mr. Conrad from
some business.”
“Mr. Conrad has an important meeting today. No one is allowed to bother him.”
“You…”
Modesty was so furious. When she nned toe here next time, she turned around and saw Ste
standing not far away from her.
Modesty involuntarily bit her lower lip. Why was Ste here? Could it be that she regretted giving up
this opportunity?
She wanted to walk over. But at the next moment, she saw a maning out and taking Ste into the
company.
Modesty widened her eyes and then questioned the receptionist, “She’s also a designer of SG Jewelry
Magazine, why can she enter thepany?”
“Miss, she enters thepany following Mr. Lance. And we have no right to stop her.”
Modesty clenched her fists tightly, yet she had no other choice and could only leave.
