Chapter 346
Sherry went out walking to rx but twisted her ankle instead. Not only she couldn’t rx now, but it
had also be worst.
She saw the couple hugging each other by the creek as she limped back. She felt like she lifted a rock
and hit on her own foot.
She became the clown herself.
When she saw the kid sitting on the table doing school work, she took a deep breath feeling guilty as if
like she was harming the future generation of the country.
Whatever, let it be. Sherry limped towards him and sat down. “Hey kid, what grade are you?”
“Fourth grade.”
Sherry nced at his book and it was indeed a fourth grade’s book.
She then asked, “You are just a kid, who taught you to… lie to people online?”
‘Little Rabbit’ put down his pencil and answered seriously. “Ms. Magical Pretty, I didn’t lie to you, I…”
“Wait, wait, wait!” Sherry immediately stopped him, “We don’t know each other, just call me Ms.”
“Oh, okay.”
He seemed polite, so Sherry continued, “If you didn’t lie to me, why would you sent me… those
photos?”
She couldn’t utter the word six-pack in front of a kid.
‘Little Rabbit’ tilted his head, “Didn’t you ask me to? The online people said these pictures help to build
trust in each other, so I chose a good one and sent it to you.”
It was nothing but an unintentional question she asked at that time, but…
She let out a sigh and kept telling herself that he was just a kid.
Sherry turned, took out an ice pack and a piece of cloth from the box and applied them on her ankle.
‘Little Rabbit’ saw that, took out a bottle of cold spray and handed it over to Sherry.
Sherry stunned, “Why would you carry this with you?”
“My mom is a doctor, she let me carry this and sanitizer with me all the time, for emergency use.”
Hearing that made Sherry curious, “That’s not bad, what about your dad? What does he do?”
His eyes darkened and lowered his head in silence.
Sherry thought she had asked a sensitive question, she coughed twice and changed the topic. “Where
do you go to school?”
“I’m not attending school now.”
“Why?”
‘Little Rabbit’ swept a nce at her cautiously, “Nothing, mom said there are too many bad guys out
there and forbids me from going to school.”
Sherry, “…” No school due to bad guys but allowed to meet an online friend?
Sherry couldn’t understand the logic behind this.
She needed to talk to the guardian when she sent him backter. It was fine since it was her today, but
it could be a real bad guy next time.
Soon, the night was falling and everyone came back.
Ste had just finished loading the charcoal into the barbecue grill when rence came and put his
jacket in her arms. “Go wait over there.”
“Can you handle this?”
rence took off his watch and raised his brow. “There’s nothing I can’t handle.”
He started showing off again.
Ste received the watch from him, put it down on a clean surface and went back to help.
She smelled burnt food as she approached.

Ste, “…” She knew this would happen.
“Let me do it.” She said helplessly.
rence was such a young master, he was destined to be served. It would be a disaster to let him
work in the kitchen.
rence moved and gave an excuse, “You’re the one who asks me to stop.”
Ste red at him, such an ungrateful wretched man.
After a while, the space was filled with delicious grilled food smells.
These were all half-cooked premade food, a little voring and grilling were enough, simple task.
Hence, Ste couldn’t understand how did that wretched man burnt the food in such a short period.
All the otherdies would like to help but stopped when they saw rence stood behind Ste with his
hands in his pockets.
At this moment, Ste’s mobile vibrated.
She was busy so she asked rence, “Mr. Conrad, please have a look who’s calling.”
rence picked up the mobile, he saw a stranger number and answered it aside.
It was silent for some time before someone smiled oddly on the other side. “My beloved daughter, I
heard that you participated in a contest again, how much is the reward this time?”
rence remained calm hearing his voice. “The amount depends on whether you’ll still be alive to
enjoy it.”
Jeffrey didn’t expect rence to answer the call, he paused and continued. “My son-inw, don’t be
mean, both you and my daughter need no money, the amount I ask is nothing to you.”
“How much do you want?”
Jeffreyughed out cunningly, “Three hundred million.”
“That’s not much, I’ll burn you some joss paper.”
Knowing that he was going to hang up, Jeffrey immediately said, “Let me remind you Clearance, there
are lots of people looking for me now and you know what they want right? I contacted my daughter
because she is my daughter, else, I’ll get the money from them.”
rence replied casually, “Stop dreaming, they won’t even burn you the joss paper but will let you rot
in a drainage instead.”
Jeffrey turned anxious, he was calling from an open space, and there were echoes when he spoke.
“rence, I know you are trying to frighten me and I know they are a bunch of rubbish, that’s why I stay
hidden from them. Alright, no more bargain then, a hundred million is all that I want and I promise to
disappear forever after that!”
“What a wonderful dream.” rence paused, looked at the mobile’s screen and frowned. “Don’t you
ever call Ste again, she’s not rich and stop disturbing her.”
“Alright, noted. How can I contact you then?”
rence gave him Nathan’s number. “Show me your sincerity since you asked for a huge amount.”
Jeffrey knew what he meant, “Of course, I will bring the negatives along.”
rence didn’t want to waste another second on him, he hung up and blocked the number.
All the food was ready and everyone sat around the fire singing and pping when he came back.
Ste walked to his side and asked, “You were gone for long, who was it?”
