Chapter 204
Ste felt the way to the toilet a great torture for her.
She even regretted putting forward this excuse.
When Ste was regretting it inwardly, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone. Before she could
react, she was pulled to a corner aside.
Looking at the man with coldness written all over his face, Ste subconsciously took a step backward,
“Mr. Conrad, didn’t you say that you want to go to the toilet?”
rence looked askance at her and said in an extremely calm voice, “Why didn’t you believe in my
words before?”
“…”
Why did this wretched man suddenly mention other matters?

Ste shifted her gaze, “Mr. Conrad, please, I…”
rence put one hand beside her to obstruct her way, “Ste Radomil, how long has I left?”
It sounded like he was denouncing her. Ste subconsciously knitted her brows, “Mr. Conrad, what do
you mean? Should I obtain your permit before having a meal with my friend?”
“Are you sure that Emmett only regards you as a friend?”
“It has nothing to do with you.”
rence fixed his ck eyes on her and said word by word, “You told me you love me before. Why
does it have no rtionship with me?”
“When did I say that? It’s you who…”
“It doesn’t matter no matter who said it. What matters is this thing.”
rence didn’t want to quarrel with him because this wretched man was so good at justifying an
unreasonable thing.
But rence didn’t intend to let her leave; instead, he narrowed his confinement of her and asked in a
low voice, “I left for several days. Do you miss me?”
Ste was rendered speechless.
Was he an insane?
Ste said seriously, “Mr. Conrad, please behave yourself and mind the impact it may have. We’re in
other people’s house.”
Several secondster, rence said, “I miss you.”
Ste was stunned as she hadn’t expected that rence would suddenly say these sweet words to
her.
rence had been like this during this period – he would make her lost for words from time to time.
She even found it hard to start an argument with her.
Right at this moment, Emmett’s voice sounded from afar, “Ste?”
Ste instantly came back to her own sense. She didn’t know where she should look at and was so
nervous at the moment.
rence put his hand into his pocket and curled his lips into a smile.
Emmett walked over. Before he asked, rence said in a m voice, “She got lost and I came to find
her.”
Emmett slightly pressed his lips, yet he didn’t point out his lie in the end, “It’s in the front. Follow me.”
When Emmett turned around, Ste trampled rence’s foot fiercely.
rence was caught out of the guard and moaned silently.
Emmett turned around when he heard the sound. Seeing rence’s knitted brows, he asked, “Mr.
Conrad, what’s wrong?”
Ste smiled at him, “Maybe he feel ufortable. He will feel better soon. Let’s go first.”
Emmett nodded his head. Before leaving, he said good-intentionally, “There’re some maids here. Mr.
Conrad, if you’re lost, you can ask them.”
After finishing the words, he left together with Ste.
rence’s temples thumped. Looking at their backs, he gritted his teeth.
When walking, Emmett turned around to have a look and then paused.
Ste also stopped when she sensed this, “What’s the matter?”
Emmett pressed his lips, “Ste, actually I want to tell you one thing long ago.”
Ste said, “I also have one thing to tell you.”
“Then let me say it first.”
He was afraid that he would not be able to say those words to Ste if she said it first.
Ste slowly nodded her head.
Emmett said, “Maybe you’ve perceived it. I don’t know how to tell you, so I only choose to tell you now.
Maybe…” He suddenly chuckled, “Maybe it’s because I’m afraid of your refusal.”
“Emmett…”
“Ste, please let me finish my words first.” Emmett continued, “I’ve been fallen for you for many years.
When Horace was staying by your side, I saw the sincere and bright smile on your face, so I’ve never
thought of bothering you. But now, I get the chance again and I don’t want to miss it.”
Ste replied after several seconds’ silence, “I’m sorry.”
“Ste, you don’t need to apologize to me. I choose to confess to you at this point of time because I
want you to know about my attitude. I won’t require you to give me your answer immediately. I know
that Mr. Conrad is also pursuing you recently, so I hope that you can give me an opportunity for fair
competition.”
Ste curled her lips into a light smile, “He’s not pursuing me. He’s just making a fuss self-willfully.”
“No matter what, I can see that Mr. Conrad likes you.”
Ste didn’t reply.
Emmett continued, “All right, I feel much more rxed after confessing to you. Ste, what do you want
to tell me?”
Ste pondered for a while, “Emmett, thanks for your favor. But at present I…”
Knowing that she was refusing him, Emmett interrupted her, “I told you that you don’t need to tell me
your answer right away. It doesn’t matter even though you don’t like me now, because maybe you will
fall for me one day. People’s feelings are different every day. I will try hard to get your love.”
Emmett continued, “Ste, please give me a chance. And give yourself a chance too.”
Ste slowly raised her head when she heard the words. She moved her lips, yet was lost for words.
…
When they went back to the dining hall, rence hade back and sat down.
rence took a nce at them and asked in a cold voice, “Mr. Conrad, are you lost?”
Emmett smiled, “It’s hard to walk to there in the evening. Mr. Conrad, looks like you’re ufortable.
Shall I ask them to send you some medicine?”
“Mr. Carter, looks like you’re so familiar with Mr. Thomas. I guess you must have visited him frequently.”
Emmett replied meaningfully, “Not that familiar. It’s just that we knew each other long ago, at least
before you, Mr. Conrad.”
rence gradually pulled a long face. With his thin lips pressed together, his ck eyes were tinged
with a touch of coldness.
Seeing that the two men had a spat again, Ste felt her head aching.
Cameron didn’t understand what was going on. He asked William in a low voice, “Are they fighting for
who knew me first?”
William chuckled. He added some tea to Cameron’s cup and shifted the topic, “I heard that Ms.
Radomil is running a studio. May I have the honor to visit it?”
Ste nodded her head, “That’s my pleasure.”
William said, “Is it convenient for me to visit it tomorrow afternoon?”
“Yep. Mr. William, you cane whenever you like.”
rence said slowly, “I’m free tomorrow afternoon. I can apany you, Mr. William.”
Ste was rendered speechless.
William smiled, “It’s my great honor if you can go with me, Mr. Conrad.”
Emmett wanted to get a word in, but he perceived a nce from the man sitting opposite to him. He
clenched his fists and didn’t say anything in the end.
