Chapter 226
rence eyes met with hers in the air. He slightly raised his brows and curled his lips into a smile,
“What’s wrong? Do you regret it?”
Ste shifted her gaze to evade his lines of sights and stammered, “What… what should I regret?”
“Do you regret refusing me?”
“Mr. Conrad, please don’t think too much of it. This won’t happen.”
rence looked at the front again and replied in a m voice, “But your eyes have betrayed you.”
Ste, “…”
She coughed with uneasiness and didn’t justify herself again.
The more she talked, the more likely that she would make a mistake.
Ste asked with bewilderment, “Mr. Conrad, what’s your purpose? Didn’t you say that you’ve be
impatient?”
“It’s joke. Why do you believe it?”
Ste suddenly felt a headache. She underestimated this wretched man’s shamelessness again.
She pressed her lips together and said slowly, “Mr. Conrad, thank you for what you’ve done for me
tonight. I admit that I felt surprised and…”

Ste didn’t tell him that she was also moved. She paused and continued after a short while, “We’ve
divorced each other for half a year. Mr. Conrad, you don’t need to…”
“Ste Radomil,” rence interrupted her, “Don’t you understand that I’m sweet-talking you?”
Ste thought that she had misheard it, “What?”
rence turned around, leaned against the handrail, and fixed his ck eyes on Ste, “I will make up
the rest two wedding anniversaries for you.”
Ste was stunned and was suddenly lost for words.
After a long while, she asked, “Mr. Conrad, have you thought of it, what you do for me now is
meaningless for me and it will only damage my peaceful life.”
“Your peaceful life? Do you mean being with Emmett?” rence continued, “Emmett is not as simple
as his appearance. Do you think that he can establish Star Ferry Technology himself in a few short
years?”
“This has nothing to do with me. And I don’t care.”
rence said slowly, “Ste, do you know why you don’t care?”
Ste took a deep breath, “It’s his private affair. I have no ground…”
“Because you don’t love him. So you won’t care no matter what he did.”
Ste didn’t reply again. She slightly pressed her lips.
rence continued, “How will your life be peaceful when living with a person you don’t love.”
“Mr. Conrad, you’re wrong. I want a peaceful life, but it doesn’t mean to be with Emmett.” Ste looked
at him calmly, “As long as you don’t appear in front of me, my life will be always peaceful.”
rence chuckled, “Ste Radomil, please be clear of your real thought before telling a lie.”
“…”
Ste thought it was so difficult to talk with him. She didn’t know when this man had seen through all
her thoughts and every time he could expose her pretense easily.
“Mr. Conrad, I’ve made it clear with you. The problem between the two of us has never been whether
we love each other or not, it’s…”
“It’s not asplicated as you’ve imagined. You said that you were not happy during the three-year
marriage with me, so I’m now trying to make up for my mistake. When you’re not angry at me and
decide to forgive me, the problem between us will naturally be solved.”
Ste was amused, “Mr. Conrad, do you think that it’s so simple?”
rence understood what she meant. He said in a low voice, “I will handle with all your worries.”
“I believe in your ability. You can get rid of Annie and even Joanna. But even if everything move on as
your wish, so what? You can’t change the past.”
“Why can’t I?”
Ste didn’t want to argue with him on these meaningless matters anymore. She said, “Emmett is
waiting for me. I have toe back.”
But when she turned around, rence grasped her wrist.
“No need to bother you, Mr. Conrad. The staff of the hotel is waiting for me…”
“I asked him to leave just now.”
Ste clenched her fists tightly. This wretched man was so shameless.
“I don’t want you to send me.”
Ste tossed down his hand and walked out of the vi silently.
But after a short while, Ste regretted for her recklessness.
After walking out of the vi, the road down the mountain was prevailed by darkness. There was no
streetlight on the long road.
Even though the shlight of her phone was dim, it was the only source of light in the darkness.
The leaves rustled in the wind, making Ste feel inexplicably frightened.
Ste gathered her cloth tightly and quickened her pace while cursing at rence in her heart.
That wretched man was really immoral. If she had expected this, she would not havee here to
expose him simply for venting her anger.
Now she was the one to suffer.
Ste became angrier when thinking of this and quickened her pace again.
There suddenly came a sound from the bush beside the road. At the next moment, a creature shed
in front of her.
“Ahh!”
Ste screamed and subconsciously took a step backwards. Then she unexpectedly fell into a warm
embrace.
rence wrapped her waist with one arm and patted her back with the other. He chuckled, “It’s just a
wild cat. Is it so frightening?”
Ste was so mad, but rence still taunted at her now, so she stepped on his feet without a second
thought, “Screw you!”
rence felt the sharp pain from his feet, but he didn’t let go of her. He asked in a low voice, “Are you
addicted to stepping me?”
“I regret being gentle to you!” When speaking, she reached out to push him away, “Let go of me.”
“It was you who came to my arms just now. How can you me me for this?”
Ste gritted her teeth, “You followed behind me deliberately. Weren’t you waiting for this chance?”
rence raised his brows, “This is the only road to go down the hill. How do you know that I’m
following you?”
“Mr. Conrad, don’t you think that it will be more usible if you let go of me before saying this?”
“I’m not a gentleman and I can’t refuse it if youe to my arms yourself.”
Ste finally couldn’t bear it any longer and pinched his waist.
She had lived with him for three years, so she knew clearly about the sensitive spots of this wretched
man.
rence tightened his grip on her waist. He asked in a low, husky and dangerous voice, “Do you
believe that I will fuck you here.”
“Of course I believe it. Mr. Conrad, you can do every wicked thing.”
rence pressed his thin lips together, yet he let go of her in the end.
Ste sneered. She ignored him and turned around.
Several minutester, Ste found that there were several huge stone on the road, whichpletely
obstructed her way for going down the hill.
She remembered that there was nothing on the road when she went up the hill.
Ste turned around, “Mr. Conrad, is this your arrangement too?”
