Chapter 247


    Upon hearing his words, Ste felt quite inexplicable.


    However, his words made sense - those people were all insane. They couldn’t do anything to rence,


    so they could only make trouble for her.


    What an undeserved catastrophe!


    Ste was silent for a moment before saying, “Mr. Conrad, how did you deal with Annie Conrad?”


    rence answered steadily, “Only my wife can know such confidential matters.”


    Ste choked up.


    She gave up to know the answer.


    Seeing that she was silent, rence added, “No worries. She’s still alive.”


    He still had other ns to keep Annie alive. How could he let her die so easily?


    “I see.”


    Ste didn’t care much.


    Soon, their dishes were served.


    When Ste was about to fill her bowl with the soup, rence had already picked up the serving spoon


    and took her bowel from her hand.


    He acted quite naturally.


    Ste had never seen that the wretched man knew how to take care of others.


    Sure enough, it was not that a man couldn’t do certain things for a woman. It only depended on if he


    loved her or not.


    When rence put the bowl of soup in front of her, Ste said politely, “Thank you, Mr. Conrad.”


    rence said indifferently, “You should know I don’t need your appreciation in the verbal form.”


    Ste ignored him. The wretched man should focus on eating.


    After dinner, Ste was about to leave. Just after taking a few steps, she bumped into someone she


    knew.


    Daniel greeted her first, “Hi, Ms. Radomil. Good to see you here. Have you just finished dinner?”


    Ste nodded at him. Before she spoke, she saw someone walking toward them.


    Phoebe stood next to Daniel and said with a faint smile, “Ms. Radomil, nice to see you again. Why did


    youe here alone? Didn’t you invite rence?”


    Her words were full of sarcasm. Ste just pressed her lips into a slight smile without speaking.


    Right then, they all heard a man’s indifferent voice, “Did you want to see me?”


    Phoebe saw him and her expression slightly changed, her hands clenching tightly.


    Sure enough, rence and Ste were reconciled.


    Ste didn’t want to get involved in their conflicts. She nodded at them in response, “Daniel, Ms.


    Steward, I need to go back to my work. See you.”


    After that, she left without looking back.


    Seeing that, rence wanted to follow her. Phoebe asked, “rence, don’t you have anything to talk


    to me?”


    With one hand in his trousers pocket, rence looked back slowly. His face was quite expressionless.


    After casting a nce at Daniel next to her, he looked at her, “Should I congratte you for finding your


    true love or your engagement next month?”


    Phoebe smiled with self-mockery, “If you didn’t call off our wedding so sudden, we should have married


    already. I won’t be stuck in such a situation.”


    Phoebe was always proud and self-conceited. Even if rence called off their engagement, she had


    never wanted to marry a disabled man.


    However, she could never understand why her father asked her to think twice when she wanted to


    marry rence because he wanted her to be happy, but after a few months, he decided to let her


    marry Justin without considering her own opinion.


    She didn’t agree at all, but her father was so determined without giving her any chance to reject.


    If it were in the past, she might havepromised.


    However, it was different not. Since she met Daniel, she gradually understood what she wanted. She


    had a better choice, so why would she be willing to bound with a cripple for the rest of her life?


    “Don’t me me for everything. You know what you’ve done.” After a pause, rence added,


    “Besides, you shouldn’t have said so in front of Mr. Daniel. What do you think, Mr. Daniel?”


    Daniel kept a proper smile on his face all the time as if he had a mask. Nobody could tell what exactly


    was in his mind.


    He said, “Mr. Conrad, I don’t mind. We’re all friends. Nothing is inappropriate.”


    rence withdrew his gaze and asked indifferently, “Really?”


    “Of course.”


    rence looked over at Phoebe and said, “Don’te to this kind of restaurant next time. Mr. Daniel


    enjoys the canned food.”


    Daniel was speechless.

    The smiling mask on his face almost cracked.


    After finishing his words, rence walked away directly.


    Phoebe frowned. Turning to look at Daniel, she asked, “What did he mean?”


    Daniel immediately adjusted his expression, “Nothing. I went to Ms. Radomil’s apartment for a meal


    before. Mr. Conrad happened to be there as well.”


    “Are you quite close to Ste Radomil?”


    “Not bad. We’re neighbors next door. Emmett is also chasing after her.”


    Upon hearing it, Phoebe sneered inwardly.


    Looking in the direction that rence was gone, Daniel squinted, “Well, it’s just that Emmett will be


    disappointed.”


    “Exactly. They made such a big scene but eventually, others got harmed.”


    Daniel looked over at Phoebe, whose eyes were full of hatred.


    ...


    Out of the restaurant, Ste happened to see a taxi, so she sat in and left.


    It was a surprise for her that Daniel and Phoebe were together.


    If she hadn’t encountered them today, she would never expect that would happen.


    Ste pressed down the car window and heaved a sigh. Fortunately, Sherry hadn’t fallen in love with


    Daniel.


    When she got home, Sherry just woke up. She walked into the kitchen while yawning, “Good morning,


    Ste.”


    “It’s ten o’clock in the evening.”


    Sherry widened her eyes instantly, “Holy shit! Did I sleep for such a long time?”


    Ste changed into her slippers, “There should be no food left in the fridge. What would you like to eat?


    I’ll order the takeout for you.”


    “Everything is fine.” Sherry drank some water and nestled on the sofa, “The more I slept, the more


    sleepy I got. I’m totally sobered at night.”


    Ste sat next to her and quickly ordered Sherry’s favorite dishes.


    “By the way, Ste, I suddenly recalled that my friend is holding a party tonight. I’m awake now and I


    can’t go to bed. Would you like to join us?”


    Ste moved her neck, “No, thanks. My neck got twisted. It would be worse if I stayed up


    overnight.”


    Sherry turned to look at her and asked in confusion, “Why did you suddenly get it twisted?”


    As she spoke, she added, “Oh, I see. Probably it has something to do with that wretched man, doesn’t


    it?”


    She believed those inexplicable and weird things would always have something to do with rence.


    “Not at all. I fell asleep in my office while lying prone on the desk. When I woke up, my neck was


    stiffened. Then it was twisted.”


    “Did you just return from the hospital?”


    Ste was silent for a moment, “Not really.”


    Sherry sniffed, “Why do I smell the medicinal liquor from you?”
