Chapter 154
Sherry knew Ste wanted to make her leave on purpose, and she left the ward reluctantly. After she
left, Phoebe sat on the couch beside her and said, “I heard that you’ve lost your child, I feel sorry about
that.” Ste did not have any change in expression and she replied ndly, “There’s nothing to feel
sorry of, it’s not mine, even if I did keep it, it won’t end up good.”

“Miss Radomil…”
“If you have anything you want to say, don’t mind me.”
Phoebe smiled. “It’s actually nothing, I just want to give some constions, as for the others…” She
paused and continued, “Maybe you’re not aware of this, but my father has sent men to fetch you the
day you left the Conrad’s house. He wanted to take you to a safer ce, but he didn’t expect that such
an ident would happen along the way. Please don’t misunderstand my father, he did not have
anything in mind, it’s just that I’m getting married with rence soon, and he might think that…”
She did not finish her words and was evasive, but Ste got what she meant. Phoebe was going to
marry rence, and she as his ex-wife would only affect their rtionship. Seeing her not saying
anything, Phoebe said, “Of course, I certainly believe in you, it’s just that my father has his concern
after all. My marriage with rence this time also connects the Conrad and the Steward family, he’s
thinking for the overall situation.”
Ste only spoke after a few seconds, “I know what you’re trying to say.” Phoebe maintained the smile
on her face and did not reply. Ste continued, “Don’t worry, the child’s gone, and I’ll have nothing more
to do with rence anymore.”
“Then are you going to continue staying in City N?” Having heard that, Ste smiled too, yet her smile
was too nd that no one could discern what she was thinking. She spoke, “Why not?” Phoebe
probably did not see thating and there was a slight change of expression on her face. Yet she
quickly concealed it and said, “I thought after suffering all these, you’ll hate this ce.”
“What I hate are just those people.” The reason why she fought so hard to leave was just to keep the
little fellow in her womb. Now that the child was gone, she had nothing left, and she had nothing to be
afraid of. “You’re right, Miss Radomil, I’ve been casual in my ns. If that’s the case, do tell me if you
need any help in the future.”
“Thank you, Miss Steward, I appreciate that,” Ste said. “But I no longer want to have anything to do
with the Conrad’s, so I’m sorry, Miss Steward, I don’t want to see you again too.” Phoebe could not
help but let out a smile. “I thought we’re friends…” Ste was expressionless. “Do you really want to be
friend with your fiancé’s ex-wife?”
Phoebe did not argue with her anymore this time and she slightly kept a straight face. She stood up
and said, “You do have your own pride, Miss Radomil. I feel sorry for what you’ve been through.”
“I’ll wish you a Happy Wedding Day in advance.”

Ste went to Adolph’s ward when her health had improved, yet he was already nowhere to be found.
The nurse said, “I suppose that man hasmitted something? The police looked for him a few days
ago and he jumped out of the window the moment the police arrived.” Ste pursed her lips and did not
reply. She thanked the nurse and returned to her room.
Ste was discharged after half a month. Before she went back to the little apartment she rented, she
let Sherry took her to another ce. She was taken away by the Conrad’s near the office of the SG
Jewelry Magazine back then, and her things were still at the Starry Lake Mansion.
Alisa weed her when she saw her came back. “Miss Radomil, you’ve finallye back. I suppose
you’ve not had lunch? I’ll make something for you…” Ste smiled at her. “Thank you, Alisa. I’ll leave
as soon as I take my things.”
Alisa asked with care, “Do you have a fight with sir again?” She then sighed. “Mr. Conrad has gone for
a business trip some time ago and has note back until now. Why don’t you wait for him first?”
“No, thanks.” Ste wasposed. “We didn’t have a fight, it’s just that he’s getting married soon, and
I…” She paused and continued, “…no longer have a reason to stay here.” Alisa was not aware of that
and she was full of surprise. After nodding at her, she went upstairs to pack her things.
Her things were not many in the first ce and she managed to pack them within few minutes. As she
took her luggage and went downstairs, she saw Alisa still standing there and was intending to say
something. Ste said, “Thank you for your previous care, Alisa. I’ll leave now.” Alisa did not know what
to say when she faced such a situation and she could only offer to apany her to the entrance.
She could not help but say when they reached the entrance, “Miss Radomil, I don’t know what’s
happened between you and sir, but sir has always been soft-hearted though he’s harsh in his words.
He never meant what he said, you…”
She had been watching this couple being with each other for three years. Although they would
sometimes have arguments, anyone could tell they were very fond of each other. Who would have
expected such an ending? Ste stopped and she still wore her smile. “Thank you, Alisa, you can stop
here now, I’ll visit you whenever I have the chance.”
“Oh, okay, Miss Radomil. Please take care of yourself too.”
Sherry whispered when she entered the car, “So rence let you go just like that?” Not knowing what
Ste was thinking, she only spoke after being in a daze for a while, “He’s gotten what he wants, and
he no longer has the reason to let me stay, plus…” She smiled ndly when she remembered Alisa’s
words just now. “rence’s not here, he’s gone for a business trip.”
“Damn!” Sherry widened her eyes in disbelief. “What a bastard he is, how could he actually go for a trip
when you’re in the hospital like that!” Ste did not mind that at all as she had already expected that.
That child was totally a trouble to him. It would be a fortune that he did not celebrate it openly but just
go for a business trip.
Channing had been waiting there when they returned to the apartment. Ste lied to him that she had
gone travelling when they talked on the phone back then. Channing noticed that she had lost weight
and her face was cadaverous. He nced at her tummy and pursed his lips. He did not ask anything
further and only took over her luggage, going upstairs without uttering a word.
Sherry said, “Since it’s rare that Chanes, why don’t we have hotpot today? The weather’s turning
cold recently, hotpot is the best.” Ste smiled. “Sure.”
