    Ste put away her smile, nodding slightly.

    Sherry couldn’t help cursing inwardly. She asked in a gentle tone, “Have you given her that ne?”


    “Yep. Annie tossed it away.”


    Sherry heaved a sigh, “Forget it. Just let it be. Anyway, you’ve got the design payment. It’s their own


    business how to deal with it.”


    Although her words made sense, Sherry knew that each designed product was unique containing a


    designer’s effort. Ste was definitely upset when seeing her designed end product be smashed and


    tossed in her presence.


    Ste said, “Let’s go home.”


    As soon as she finished speaking, Sherry saw rence walk out of the hotel. He was expressionless,


    emanating a cold aura. He strode over to a Rolls-Royce parked at the roadside.


    He didn’t spare any nce at them.


    Nathan, who followed him, cast a hesitant nce at Ste. He wasn’t sure if he should invite Ste to


    get into the car, so he could only nod at her and drove the car away hurriedly.


    Sherry said, “What is wrong with the wretched man again? It’s his fault that he’s so yful with women.


    How could he be so arrogant? I have mistaken him as a good man. Phew!”


    Ste faintly smiled, “Let’s go.”


    ...


    Back to Starry Lake Mansion, Ste was walking upstairs. The servant whispered to her, “Mrs. Conrad,


    did you fight with Mr. Conrad again? Just now, he came back home with a long face as if he was quite


    angry.”


    “No worries. He’s always like this.”


    The servant left after exchanged a few words with her.


    Walking into her room, Ste took out her suitcase from the cab and roughly put all her clothes in it.


    Then she pulled the suitcase out of her room.


    When she walked out of the room, she saw rence lean against the door with both his hands in the


    trousers pockets. He stared at her expressionlessly, “Where are you going?”


    Ste answered, “Mr. Conrad, you are getting married. I don’t have any reason to continue staying


    here.”


    rence suddenly sneered, “You’ve listened to one sentence from her and you believed her. I’ve said


    a lot of words to you but you don’t care at all. Ste, it’s just your excuse, isn’t it?”


    “Mr. Conrad, if you are delighted to think this way, please go ahead.”


    Ste wasn’t in the mood to talk nonsense with him. Directly, she dragged the suitcase forward.


    When she reached the stairs, she stopped.


    She acted way too recklessly.


    Not far away from her, rence didn’t move a bit. He looked at her calmly.


    There was fury suppressed in Ste’s heart for some reason. Now he seemed topete with her in


    silence. She thought for a moment and walked downstairs, “Excuse me, Alisa. Could you please help


    me take the luggage downstairs?”


    Alisa was about to say yes, but she saw rence appear on the top of the stairs with a cold look.


    She was enlightened. With one hand covering her waist, she said, “s... Mrs. Conrad, I’ve got a


    strong pain in my back recently. I can’t lift anything heavy.”


    After that, she escaped from the scene.


    Ste was speechless.


    Then she decided to give up her belongings.


    She turned around and took a step. While walking, she heard rence’s voice from her back, “You


    should know the consequences after leaving here.”


    Upon hearing it, Ste paused her pace.


    rence walked downstairs slowly, sitting on the sofa.


    Ste looked at him, “Mr. Conrad, are you threatening me?”


    “If you are delighted to think this way, please go ahead.”


    Ste was choked up.


    She wondered the wretched man might have something wrong mentally.


    Ste pressed her lips and tried to reason with him, “Mr. Conrad, Miss Steward shouldn’t know my


    rtionship with you. She also doesn’t know we’re staying in the same house right now. If she knew


    it...”


    rence looked up at her, “If she knew it, what would happen?”


    Ste was interrupted by him. For a moment, she forgot what she was about to talk to him.


    rence added, “Ste, I believe you should exin why you showed up there. You shouldn’t have


    questioned me about whom I’m going to marry.”


    Ste denied that she was questioning him.


    It was him who obviously wanted to have two men at the same time.


    Ste inhaled deeply, “Mr. Conrad, I didn’t mean to show up there. Miss Steward is my client. I went


    there to send her the end product. Later, because of the incident in the auction, I needed to exin it to


    Mr. Jason.”


    “Did he listen to your exnation?”


    “Well... No, he didn’t.”


    “Was your exnation useful?”


    “No, it wasn’t either.”


    rence looked over at her coldly, “Then, tell me. What were you doing there?”


    Ste quieted down for a moment and said, “Mr. Conrad, something happened to my design. As the


    designer, I should be responsible for it. It’s not that I didn’t need to exin because it was not useful.”


    “I didn’t see how responsible you were. I just saw that Horace Jason was against his father because of


    you.”


    rence’s tone was indifferent as if he was quite happy to see what had happened.


    Ste didn’t speak. She knew how stressful Horace would be when he rified for her in public.


    rence added, “Ste, Horace Jason has the engagement with the Conrad family already. Now the


    Jason family knows your existence and has witnessed that Horace Jason could do anything for you. Do


    you think they would pretend that nothing has happened and not deal with you?”


    Ste didn’t understand it, “What do you mean?”


    “I mean your enemies are not only the Conrad family but also the Jason family. As long as you walk out


    of this door, I have nothing to do with what you’ll end up with.”


    Ste was silent for a few seconds. She chuckled, “Oh, right. Mr. Conrad, you’re not interested in


    dealing with such a matter, anyway.”


    rence licked his thin lips, his ck eyes gazing at her without a blink.


    He had never been in a mood to exin anything. He didn’t care how others would misunderstand him.


    However, he suddenly wanted to dig out the ungrateful woman’s heart and see if she still had her


    conscience.


    rence said, “If I don’t deal with things for you, do you think you can still stand here speaking to me?”


    Ste smiled at him perfunctorily. She wasn’t in the mood to continue speaking to him. She said, “No


    matter what, Mr. Conrad, since you’ve engaged with Miss Steward, you’d better find a chance and


    make everything clear to her. In a married, the most important is honesty and responsibility.”


    rence cast her a nce, “Do you mean that I wasn’t honest enough to you and I didn’t take my


    responsibility in the past?”


    Ste didn’t answer.


    He had admitted it himself.


    “Well, Mr. Conrad, I just think since you’re getting married to Miss Steward, you shouldn’t have hidden


    anything from her. Otherwise...”


    “Ste, are you jealous?”


    Ste was confused.


    rence stood up and approached her step by step, “You kept talking about Phoebe Steward and


    marriage. Aren’t you jealous?”


    Ste couldn’t help taking steps back. With a blushed face, she denied, “No, I’m not! Mr. Conrad, I just


    think your behaviors are way too shameless!”


    While she was stepping back, she bumped into something. When she was about to fall, she grabbed


    the shirt in front of her in a panic.
