Chapter 178


    Emmett frowned, “Do you want to go to the hospital?”


    “No, thanks. It’s my old disease. I’ll be fine soon.”


    Although she said so, Emmett was still a bit worried, “Are you sure?”


    Ste nodded, “Yes.”


    Emmett pressed his lips, “All right. If you still don’t feel wellter, do let me know. We shall go to the


    hospital for a checkup.”


    “Okay.”


    Fortunately, the light above the audience seats was quite dim, so Emmett didn’t see anything wrong.


    After Emmett withdrew his gaze, Ste turned to look at rence and frowned deeply. She said with


    her lips, “Let go!”


    rence pretended that he didn’t see it. Instead, he looked at the stage.


    Ste inhaled deeply. Raising her foot, she stomped on his foot rudely.


    She was wearing high heels today, so it might hurt a lot.


    Sure enough, she heard the man groan next to her.


    However, even so, he still didn’t release his grip on her hand.


    This was the very first time that he was so shameless in Ste’s presence. She went furious.


    When she was about to give him the second stomp, rence immediately let go of her hand.


    Ste sneered. He deserved it.


    After such a ridiculous event, Ste wasn’t in the mood to continue enjoying the concert. When Daniel


    went off the stage to change his costume and get ready for the next program, she turned around and


    whispered, “Emmett, I’m sorry. I have something urgent to deal with. I have to go now.”


    After that, Ste stood up to leave.


    Emmett immediately followed her, “Please let me give you a ride.”


    When he passed by the seat, he surprisingly found that rence had taken Sherry’s seat. He looked


    expressionless.


    Being polite, Emmett slightly nodded at him as the greeting.


    Seeing that they were gone one after another, rence licked his thin lips. He looked down at his palm


    on which Ste’s temperature still remained. He also stood up and followed them.


    Sherry sat on the seat and looked towards the exit, and then at the stage. In the end, she stomped and


    chased them out.


    In the corridor, Emmett asked, “Ste, are you still not well?”


    Ste stopped, turned around, and shook her head, “No. It’s just something urgent happened.”


    “Where are you going? Let me ride you home.”


    “Nothing. Please don’t bother, Emmett. I can go there myself. You should go back to the concert.”


    Emmett smiled, “I also want to get some fresh air and have a walk outside. Let me walk you to the


    entrance.”


    Upon hearing it, Ste couldn’t insist on refusing him. They walked towards the entrance together.


    After a while, Emmett said, “Ste, if you are free tomorrow evening, may I invite you for a dinner?”


    Ste thought for a moment. She felt quite embarrassed about her sudden leave today, “Yes, I’m free.


    But it should be on me. I’m sorry for what happened today.”


    “It’s alright. Please don’t take it so seriously.”


    Ste said with a smile, “Okay. I’ll tell Sherry about it after going home. We’ll see you tomorrow then.”


    “Ste, wait,” Emmett suddenly said, “I just want to have dinner with you alone tomorrow. Could you


    please not tell Sherry?”


    Ste was slightly taken aback.


    Studying her expression carefully, Emmett asked tentatively, “Does it work?”


    While Ste didn’t know what to answer, they heard a man’s cold voice behind their backs, “No, it


    doesn’t.”


    Emmett looked back, “Mr. Conrad?”


    rence walked to Ste and stood next to her. He looked over at Emmett, “She’s upied tomorrow.”


    Ste asked, “Am I?”


    rence pressed his thin lips as if he was quite happy about her response.


    He cast her a nce, “I said you are upied and I have the final say.”


    Ste snorted. Then she curled up a smile at Emmett, “Okay, Emmett. I epted it.”


    Emmett hadn’t returned to his senses yet. Then he nodded, “Good. I’ll go pick you up tomorrow.”


    Ste smiled, “All right. I’m taking off now. See you tomorrow.”


    After finishing her words, Ste strode away.


    When rence was about to chase after her, his arm was pulled. His face became colder, “Let go.”


    Emmett asked, “Mr. Conrad, may I ask what you are doing now?”


    “None of your business.”


    “Why not? Mr. Conrad, I’m sure that you can tell I’m pursuing Ste now. If you are chasing after her,


    we can have a fairpetition. Mr. Conrad, but please don’t always be so aggressive. Please respect


    her.”


    rence withdrew his gaze and looked over at Emmett. Suddenly, he sorted, “Said who I’m chasing


    after her?”


    Emmett asked, “Mr. Conrad, could you exin reasonably about what you are doing?”


    “Of course,” rence said slowly, “Just a kindly reminder, Mr. Carter. Ste is my wife. Please leave


    her alone.”


    Right then, they heard a whisper chime in, “Your ex-wife.”


    rence was speechless.


    When he looked over, Sherry immediately looked away. She pretended that nothing had happened.


    She couldn’t have the heart to see the couple she match-made break up.


    Upon hearing it, Emmett smiled, “I see.”


    rence looked at him again, “Mr. Carter, now you’ve known my rtionship with her. Would you still


    keep pestering her?”


    Emmett said, “I’ve heard that you had a wife, Mr. Conrad, and you didn’t like her at all. Have you


    regretted divorcing her? Well, Mr. Conrad, now you are the one who kept pestering her.”


    rence pulled his face longer and longer, staring daggers at Emmett.


    Emmett continued, “Mr. Conrad, I do appreciate that you’ve told me this. Now I fully understand what


    Ste has been through. I’ll treat her much better in the future to make up for the harm she received in


    the past.”


    After finishing his words, Emmett nodded at rence as a farewell and turned away.


    Seeing that, Sherry trotted to follow him.


    She was afraid if she continued staying here, rence the wretched man might kill her and made her


    corpse vanish.


    After they were gone, Nathan walked in and said, “Mr. Conrad, Mrs. Conrad went that way.”


    rence asked indifferently, “Do you also think that Ste has only received harm during the three-


    year marriage with me?”


    “Well...”


    Nathan realized that the answer to this question mattered in his life.


    If he gave a wrong answer, he might be doomed.


    After thinking quickly for a few seconds, he said with hesitation, “Mr. Conrad, although you had


    misunderstood Mrs. Conrad before, you cared about her asionally.”


    “For example?”


    Nathan kept silent.


    He couldn’t find any example to support his words.


    Mr. Conrad could never speak nicely.

    Although he had changed a lot, it was not difficult to tell that how many heartbreaking words he had


    said to Mrs. Conrad during those three years.


    Anyone who heard those words that Nathan had heard would crazily curse Mr. Conrad, let alone those


    words when Mr. Conrad spoke when he was with Mrs. Conrad alone.


    Seeing that Nathan kept silent, rence tightened his chin, lifted his foot, and walked out.
