Chapter 225
In a room of the hotel…
The manager reported to rence, “Mr. Conrad, Mrs. Conrad has agreed to go to the evening
sightseeing. But…”
Sitting on the sofa, rence asked in a m voice, “What’s the matter?”
The manager replied with a flustered mind, “Mrs. Conrad said that she wants to bring a friend together.”
rence narrowed his eyes dangerously and gently clicked his knees. It seemed like he was
pondering something.
He asked after a short while, “When will she be there?”
“Mrs. Conrad is taking part in the annual party of Star Ferry Technology now. Probably she will go there
when the party is over.”
rence stood up, “Prepare it now. If Emmettes with her, you should obstruct him.”
…
The annual party started. The C-level managers of the Star Ferry Technology went to the stage to
deliver a speech one by one and Emmett was thest one to give a speech.
This part was followed by a lottery.
Ste took a nce at her phone. It was half past seven.
She turned her head and said to Emmett in a low voice, “Emmett, I have to leave now.”
Emmett was stunned, “Where are you going?”
Ste replied with a light smile, “I have to deal with some matters.”
Emmett immediately knew that these matters must be rted with rence.
He said after a short while of silence, “Let me go there with you.”
Ste said, “It doesn’t matter. I can handle it myself.”
Right at this moment, Emmett’s assistant came to find him and told him that the next part was going to
start.
As the boss of the Star Ferry Technology, Emmett couldn’t leave in such an important event.
Ste said, “Go on with your business. I will leave first.”
Emmett had no choice but to nod his head, “Call me when it’s over. I will go to pick you up.”
“Okay.”
Ste directly went to the first floor of the hotel after leaving the banquet hall.
A man was waiting for her outside.
He walked over and asked, “Excuse me, are you Ms. Radomil?”
“Yes.”
“I’m a staff of this hotel and I will bring you to the evening viewing tform.”
Ste smiled lightly, “Thank you.”
The car went on the mountain and ten minutester, their field of vision became broader.
There was a spa vi.
In the garden of the vi, there were some equipment for star observation and several tents.
If the weather was good, it would have wonderful scenery.
After getting off the car, the man brought Ste to the vi, “Miss, please wait for a moment here.”
Looking at the long table that was perched with various kinds of food and red wine, Ste nodded her
head to show her gratitude.
After the man’s leaving, Ste sat down at the long table and looked at the red wine in front of her with
composure on her face.
After a long while, there suddenly came a loud bang from the sky. It sounded like something had
exploded in the sky.
Ste turned around and saw the fireworks that illuminate the whole holiday vige.
Ste was stunned as she hadn’t expected this.
Bright and colorful fireworks exploded in the sky one by one.
When the firework show came to an end, Ste heard some footsteps from behind.
She had expected this.
But when she turned around and wanted to say something, she found that the man was the staff who
sent her here.
The man didn’t probably expect that Ste would suddenly turn around, and he was startled, “Ms.
Radomil…”
Ste instantly felt very awkward. She picked up a ss of red wine, took a sip, and thenughed drily,
“What’s the matter?”
The man handed a gift box to her, “Ms. Radomil, to show our apology, we specially prepare this gift for
you.”
Ste froze. She suddenly realized something and asked, “The fireworks…”
“It’s a part of our evening sightseeing.”
“Oh.”
Ste felt so embarrassed that she even wanted to find a hole on the ground to hide herself.
The man continued, “Ms. Radomil, you can stay in this vi tonight. I wille here to pick you up
tomorrow morning.”
Ste gently shook her head, “I will only stay here for a while and then I wille back.”
“Then I will wait for you in the car.”
After the man’s leaving, Ste lifted her chin and gulped down the red wine in the ss.
She felt that ever since she bumped into rence today, she had lost the ability to think calmly.
She would uncontrobly think that he was here for her and even had an illusion that he was the one
behind all those wired things happened to her today.
But the reality told her that she had been thinking too much of it.
Although those things seemed to be incredible, they happened to her coincidently.
Ste heaved a long sigh and poured another ss of wine for herself.
It seemed like she had been greatly influenced by rence before. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so
sensitive now.
Ste stood up and walked to the sightseeing tform. She slightly leaned against the handrail and
looked at the lights afar, seeming to be lost in her thoughts.
Ste stood up, walked to the viewing tform, slightly leaned against the handrail and fixed her eye
son the starry lights afar, seeming to be lost in her thoughts.
The evening breezes carried chillness, plus that she was in the mountain now, Ste snooze after a
short while and felt her legs and arms cold.
When she prepared toe back to the hotel, a person stood beside him and hiszy voice sounded
by her ear, “You look disappointed when seeing that I’m not here.”
Ste replied, “Mr. Conrad, didn’t youe back to City N?”
rence looked askance at her, “You know it’s my lie. Why did you stille here?”

“I…”
Ste was suddenly lost for words.
Originally, she nned toe here to expose his tricks and embarrass him. She would not give any
opportunity for him to justify himself. But out of no reason, she suddenly lost the mood to do so.
Ste gathered her cloth and said, “Mr. Conrad, the show is wonderful and if you didn’t appear, I would
have been convinced. May I ask why you suddenly changed your mind?”
With one hand in his pocket, rence looked at the distance and said indifferently, “I feel distressed.”
Maybe it was because she had drunken wine just now, or maybe it was because she felt numb and
dizzy after being exposed in the cold wind for a long time, Ste asked, “Why do you feel distressed?”
“I feel distressed when seeing you standing here alone.”
Ste smiled silently. She didn’t reply.
rence continued, “Ste, do you forget that today is an important day?”
Ste felt more confused when hearing this, “What’s it?”
“It’s our wedding anniversary.”
Ste said sulkily, “Mr. Conrad, can you find a usible excuse? Our wedding anniversary was half a
year ago.”
rence took a nce at her, “Oh, you still remember it.”
Of course Ste remembered it clearly because she proposed the divorcement and sent him a
‘surprise’ on their wedding anniversary.
rence continued without waiting for Ste’s reply, “I make up this for you. It’s our first wedding
anniversary.”
When he finished the words, the whole scene was prevailed by silence.
Ste looked at him dully. At this moment, she even felt that her heart had stop jumping.
