Chapter 195


    When Ste opened the door, she saw Winnie standing outside and waving at her.


    Steughed, when she was just about to say something, she saw a man’s silhouette appear slowly


    behind Winnie.


    “…”


    rence stood still, and turned his head towards her, his expression as if unhappy, “What’s that


    expression?”


    Winnie gave a dryugh, and exined, “It’s like this, I bumped into Mr. Conrad in the lift just now, isn’t


    it such a coincidence! Mr. Conrad is here to look for a friend, but that friend is not here, such a pity, so


    I…”


    Ste’s expression remained unchanged, she stared at rence and said intentionally, “Didn’t expect


    Mr. Conrad to even have friends over here.”


    Hearing the sarcasm in her voice, rence said calmly, “If I have money, would I not have friends?”


    Ste, “…”


    Damn it, it’s really a sentence that left people speechless.


    In the current situation, she couldn’t straight away chase him out, what’s more even if she chased him


    away, it might not even be effective.


    Ste inhaled deeply, and made way for them, “Come in.”


    When they were going in, rence said in a low voice to Winnie, “Not bad acting skills.”

    “…”


    She really had to thank him for hispliment.


    Following rence’s arrival, the originally cosy atmosphere quickly turned to one of ice.


    As for rence himself, he seemed to not have detected the unweing atmosphere surrounding


    him, his expression calm and collected.


    Ste even felt awkward for him.


    Emmett probably didn’t expect him to appear here too. After being stunned for a second, he recovered


    very quickly and greeted him politely, “Mr. Conrad.”


    When Sherry finished her call and came out to this scene, she was stunned. She went next to Winnie


    and asked, “What happened, that dog… Mr. Conrad, why is he here?”


    Winnie took a deep breath, unable to exin her reasons.


    In the kitchen, Channing looked at what’s happening outside, and frowned deeply, “Why is he here?


    Did you invite him?”


    Ste said, “No, but…”


    “But what?”


    Steughed, and shook her head lightly.


    Even if he hadn’te with Winnie today, he would have found another way.


    Sure enough, it couldn’t evenst for two days.


    After a moment, Channing said again, “Has he been pestering youtely?”


    “Sherry told you this?”


    “I guessed.”


    Ste, “…”


    He was good at guessing.


    Ste stopped her thoughts, “Let’s eat.”


    On the table, Winnie and Sherry sat together. Daniel, Emmett and rence sat on one side each.


    Once Channing went out, she was dragged by Sherry to sit next to Daniel.


    The leftover seats were next to rence and Emmett.


    This meant that Ste had to choose between the both of them.


    Seeing this scene, Ste wanted to just disappear into thin air.


    What was this battlefield?


    She turned around and looked at the person that caused this situation. Without thinking she already


    knew that it was Sherry.


    Seeing that the situation had escted very quickly, Sherry immediately said seriously, “This… Ste,


    you sit next to Emmett, don’t squeeze next to Mr. Conrad.”


    Ste’s temples were pounding, she would settle this with Sherryter.


    Just when she was about to sit down, her wrist was pulled by someone.


    rence raised her head to look her, his gaze calm, “I’m not afraid of squeezing, you sit here.”


    “…”


    Winnie couldn’t bear to continue looking at this situation. She had brought rence here today without


    informing everyone, she indeed felt very bad. She got up and said, “Ste, you sit here, rence and


    I…”


    Before she even finished her words, a cold gaze turned to her.


    She quickly sat down, and rubbed her neck awkwardly, pretending as if nothing happened.


    Using this opportunity, Ste quickly found an excuse, “I suddenly recalled that something is still


    cooking in the kitchen, you guys eat first.”


    Finishing her words, she quickly pulled away rence’s hand, turned around and ran back to the


    kitchen.


    rence gazed at her back for a while, as if calcting the possibility of them sitting together.


    A few secondster, he turned to look at Emmett.


    Emmett, “?”


    Under everyone’s astonished eyes, rence emptied out a seat, and moved to sit next to Emmett.


    Everyone, “…”


    Sherry said quietly by the side, “Is this what people meant by, if I can’t get it, neither can you?”


    Winnie nodded in agreement, “This is what they meant by war makes both parties lose out.”


    Ste stayed in the kitchen for over ten minutes. She finally decided to go out and get Chan to swap


    seats with her.


    rence’s threat wouldn’t work on Chan.


    With this decision in mind, she felt that she had finally let go of the rock in her heart.


    But what she didn’t realize was that the seats outside had been swapped, and left her a single seat.


    This was even better, it would prevent a lot of awkwardness.


    rence’s gaze swept across the house, his eyes finally fell on the bouquet of flowers on the coffee


    table. His brows frowned slightly.


    He said quietly, “Was that flower given by Mr. Carter?”


    Emmett said, “Yes.”


    rence replied, “Doesn’t Mr. Carter know that Ste is allergic to flowers. Mr. Carter your enthusiasm


    is given to the wrong person.”


    Before he even finished his words, Ste looked at Emmett and smiled, “Not true, I love flowers, thank


    you very much.”


    Emmett smiled and nodded his head slightly.


    rence pursed his lips slightly, and looked at her from the side of his eyes.


    Ste quickly averted her gaze, and lowered her head to eat something.


    At this moment, Daniel opened his mouth and said, “Mr. Conrad, don’t you bring anything whening


    to people’s house?”


    Hearing this, Sherry quickly used this opportunity to agree, “Yes, Emmett brought flowers, Daniel


    brought red wine, Mr. Conrad what did you bring?”


    rence, “…”


    He licked his lips, and looked towards Winnie, “She didn’t bring anything too right?”


    Daniel smiled, “Winnie is a girl, Mr. Conrad why are youparing yourself with her.”


    rence asked him back, “What’s the difference with being a girl, everyone is equal.”


    With these words, Ste choked on her food.


    This son of a bitch really learned fast.


    Daniel must not have expected rence’s skin to be so thick, after being stunned for a bit he stopped


    talking.


    After a few seconds of silence, rence looked at the oily food in his bowl, and his brows furrowed.


    Ste was just sitting by his side, and she noticed his slight change in expression.


    She almost forgot, this son of a bitch didn’t like eating oily food.


    And in his bowl, was quite a lot of oil.


    Ste pursed her lips, but in the end she didn’t do anything.


    Good that he didn’t like it, then just stop eating and leave.


    A few secondster, Emmett that was sitting next to him noticed too. He asked, “Mr. Conrad do you not


    like to eat hotpot.”


    There were so many people around now, hence Sherry wasn’t afraid, she quickly added, “Mr. Conrad is


    used to eating delicacies, I think this doesn’t cater to his appetite.”


    Channing said calmly, “If that’s the case, better not force yourself, what’s more we’re not from the same


    walk of life.”
