Chapter 92
rence didn’t spare her a nce. Withdrawing his hand, he strode on the step.
Ste followed him for a few steps. Then she asked, “Mr. Conrad, do you want to go to any other
ces? If not, I gotta go home.”
“Hasn’t anyone told you to exercise more after being pregnant?”
Ste answered seriously, “My doctor told me to have more rest, leaving those disgusting people and
matters alone.”
rence cast her an indifferent nce.
“Of course, I feel physically and mentally delighted with being with you, Mr. Conrad. Where else do you
want to go? Let’s go there ande back as soon as possible. Otherwise, it’ll get dark soon.”
Looking at her hypocritical smile, rence snorted, “Nowhere.”
Ste exhaled. She was delighted.
It seemed the way back was shorter than the way when they came here. Shortly, they arrived at the
door of the house.
Ste said, “Mr. Conrad, I’m going upstairs. If you need anything, please let me know.”
As she spoke, she trotted away before rence answered.
Back to her room, Ste sat in front of the bed. She opened the draft, ready to continue drawing.
However, she raised the pen but couldn’t make a brush after a long time.
Currently, the scene that rence was standing in the stern of the boat and reading out his hand to her
shed through her mind.
...
After thest brush, Ste signed her name on it.
She put down and stretched. Sherry’s call wasing in.
Sherry said, “Hello, Ste, my darling. What are you doing?”
Ste was about to answer. She looked down and saw the picture on her desk. Probably she felt guilty,
she closed the draft book and put on a wry smile, “Nothing... I’m drawing the design draft casually.
What’s up?”
Fortunately, Sherry didn’t sense anything wrong with her voice. She said, “I’m so bored alone in City N.
Tomorrow is the weekend. How about I go to find you? The scenery photos you took looked quite nice.”
Before considering it, Ste subconsciously said, “Please don’t.”
Sherry was confused, “Why? What’s wrong?”
“I meant... It’s quite far away from City N indeed. You only have two days, and you need to rush back
before enjoying anything here. How about next time? When you have a long vacation, you cane
here.”
“All right. By the way, I met Liam Keith a few days ago. He’s so in love with that bitch. A few weeks ago,
he looked as if he couldn’t live without me. Jesus! Men are jerks. They always hunt for women even if
they have girlfriends. So disgusting!”
Ste fell into the silence.
Indeed, what would be different if the dumped woman tried her best to retain the man? He would still
hunt other women behind his girlfriend.
She couldn’t help wondering what love meant to some people.
Liam was like this, let alone...
After bitching about Liam for a moment, Sherry asked Ste to take care of herself. Then she hung up
the phone.
Ste put down the phone and reopened the draft book. After a thought, she tore the page off, rolled it
up, and tossed it into the trash bin.
She inhaled, cheered herself up, and started drawing the draft.
Ste was quite immersed in her work. She hadn’t noticed that it was getting darker and darker outside.
After a long while, she heard a few knocks on her door.
rence’s expressionless voice was heard, “Ste, are you awake?”
Ste stood up and opened the door reluctantly, “Mr. Conrad, what’s up?”
“Go out for dinner.”
It wasn’t until now did Ste realized that it was dinner time.
The wretched man was unwilling to dine out for lunch. She wondered why he was willing to go out now.
rence looked out of the window, “It’s getting cold at night. Take a coat.”
“Okay.”
Ste went back to get her coat and went downstairs.
Walking out of the house, she saw the Maybach parked at the roadside.
Seeing that rence strode over, Ste realized that they may go to a distant ce.
The most important was to eat, so she didn’t want to make any trouble to him.
Much to her surprise, when she opened the rear door, rence opened the door next to the driver’s
seat.
Ste was taken aback.
rence looked over at her unhappily, “Sit in the front.”
Ste closed the rear door in silence, walking to the passenger seat.
On the way, Ste kept looking out of the window. For several times, she wanted to ask rence
where they were heading to, but she guessed that he might not answer her. She gave up.
As the car went farther, the scenery outside the car became brighter and vivid.
Looking at the crowds outside, Ste guessed that they must have arrived downtown.
It seemed that the wretched man was so picky in dinner. He drove all the way here.

After rence parked the car, Ste followed him, walking forward.
There were a lot of people on the street. Ste was pregnant and she couldn’t walk so fast. Shortly
after, she was bumped away by the passersby and distanced from him.
She didn’t worry at all. It was not a bad thing that they were separate. She could have dinner by herself
and go home afterward without disturbing him or being disturbed.
However, soon, she heard the man’s cold voice above her head, “Are you a turtle? You are moving so
slowly.”
Ste blurted out, “Are you an ostrich? You are walking so fast.”
rence was speechless.
Ste wondered where he was going to take her to. She had been starved long ago. The baby was
also objecting. She felt sickened but couldn’t vomit anything.
Seeing that she looked pale, rence pressed his thin lips and didn’t get angry. He said, “We’ll arrive
in about five minutes.”
“Mr. Conrad, if I knew you are so picky in food and woulde to this far, I’d rather stay home and ate
some steamed buns instead.”
rence pulled a long face, “Ste, don’t push your luck too far.”
Ste ignored him, keeping heading ahead.
rence was a half-step away from her, slowly walking beside her.
He blocked the crowds from bumping her again.
Upon realizing it, Ste became more annoyed. Unconsciously, she fastened her pace.
However, after she took a few steps, rence’s voice sounded out, “We’ve arrived.”
Ste followed his gaze, only to find the endless bright yellow lights and the ancient booths along the
street.
Different kinds of food, snacks, essories, toys, and clothes were sold there.
There were so many things.
“Where are we...”
Before she could finish her question, rence lifted his foot and walked over.
She knew that the wretched man’s mercy wouldn’tst long.
Standing on the street with the food booths, rence looked over at Ste, “What would you like to
eat?”
Ste wouldn’t be polite to him, so she ordered seven to eight kinds of snacks. With good manners,
she asked, “Mr. Conrad, how about you?”
“Mind your own business.”
Ste didn’t retort. She was just asking casually as being polite.
When Ste was about to find a ce to sit down, she found that rence was standing motionlessly
without the intention to move.
She reminded him kindly, “Mr. Conrad, when the foods are ready, the owners will serve them to us. We
don’t need to wait here.”
rence answered, “I knew it.”
Wondering if it was her illusion, Ste seemed to hear faintly the sound that he gritted his teeth.
