Chapter 382
In the end, Channing declined to join them at the karaoke.
Ste sent Channing home and joined themter, while Sherry and the girls went to the karaoke.
"What have you been up totely, rence mentioned you go out early ande homete?"
"Something." After a little interval, Channing responded.
"Can you tell me what that is?"
He turned away silently.
Ste didn''t pursue him because she knew he didn''t want to tell. "No matter what happens, don''t act on
impulse again, remember that you are my brother, my only family in this world, no one is more precious
to me than you."
"How about rence?" After a moment, Channing questioned.
She was taken aback by the question. "Boyfriend is receable, but not brother," she said with a smile.
"I swear I won''t be rash, and I won''t be used to threaten you again. Adolph and you..." he hesitated,
frowning.
It was a difficult situation.

"He saved me once," Ste remarked, "And I forgive him for his earlier mistakes. I phoned and paid
him to search down Jeffrey."
"Forgive?" Channing squinted even more.
"Adolph wouldn''t havee to us if Jeffrey hadn''t borrowed money from a loan shark," Ste said.
"Furthermore, Jeffrey nned everything, and Adolph merely wanted his money back."
She despised both Jeffrey and Adolph.
But she couldn''t me Adolph anymore.
She couldn''t tell whether Adolph was kind or bad, but she recognized humanity in him because of
Modesty''s father.
It was simply a matter of surviving in different ways.
Channing remained silent as he gazed out the window.
Ste said as she parked the car in front of Starry Lake Mansion, "You should go back to school after
the weekend because you are almost fully recovered."
"Okay." Channing smiled and nodded.
"Do you want toe in?" he inquired as he got out of the car.
"No," Ste said as she gazed at that familiar ce, smiled, and shook her head.
"Then it''s goodbye."
"Goodbye."
Ste lingered after Channing had departed before driving away.
Starry Lake Mansion.
Channing walked into the living room as rence descended the stairs. "What have you been up to?"
"A gathering."
"What kind of gathering?" rence inquired, frowning.
"Didn''t my sister invite you?" He stated that on purpose.
rence couldn''t say anything.
"She just sent me back and left," Channing continued.
rence was irritated. After casting a peek at Channing, he returned upstairs.
Channing felt a lot better when he saw his unhappy expression.
rence reached for his phone, intending to call Ste, but decided against it.
She despised Starry Lake Mansion and refused to set foot inside.
rence tossed his phone on the sofa, massaged his nose, and gazed around the quiet room.
It was all thanks to him.
"Have you got it?" he asked after dialing Vincent''s phone.
Vincent replied, "Not yet. That crafty fox hides him well, but Donald is running after him, I doubt he''ll
have time to visit Ste."
"Watch the hospital as well, don''t give him a chance."
"Don''t worry, we''ve dispatched him."
"The new project with the Steward Group had begun, the remainder would be handled by someone
else. All we have to do now is make sure Charles and Phoebe don''t get in the way." rence went on.
Vincent nodded and said, "OK."
rence sat in the same location for a few moments after hanging up the phone before abruptly rising.
Channing emerged from his room downstairs, and he rushed into him. "Where are you going?"
rence imed, "It''s none of your concern."
It didn''t seem like he was going for Ste.
Was he seeing someone else?
He followed him around to see what was going on.
rence gazed into the ck mirror reflection of the car behind him from inside the ck Rolls Royce.
After a few rounds, his lips lifted and he was gone.
Half an hourter, the car came to a halt in front of amon residential area.
When rence arrived, the baby was ying with his toys in the cradle, which were all soaked in his
saliva.
His finger was covered in saliva as he poked the corner of his lips. He frowned as he quickly wiped it
away.
"You''ve arrived," Dolores stated as she emerged from the kitchen.
"Are you by yourself?" rence threw the tissue away.
"Amanda went out for groceries."
"At this hour?"
"I sent her to the mall since the fridge is empty," Dolores exined.
rence said, "I''ll send you to City C next week."
Dolores was taken aback. "Did Ste find this location?"
"She makes a big deal about wanting to visit you, so I''ll bring her next week."
"When do you n to tell her the truth?" Dolores sighed.
"After I get rid of Joanna," rence sat on the sofa.
"What happened to the baby after I left?" Dolores inquired.
"I''ll have someone else look after him until your return," he said looking to the cradle.
"It appears to be the only option."
When the doorbell rang, Dolores assumed Amanda had returned, so she went to answer it, only to find
an unfamiliar man standing there.
"Who you are?" Dolores inquired.
"I''vee to see rence," Channing exined.
He walked into the house without waiting for Dolores to answer.
rence was taken aback when he saw him, he had discovered this ce after all.
If Channing hadn''t promised Ste not to behave rashly just now, his fist would havended on
rence''s face right now.
Amanda returned at this point "What exactly is going on? Dolores, why is the door so wide open?" she
inquired quietly.
As soon as Channing noticed this, he grabbed rence''s cor, "Are you even a human being? What
did you promise me?" Channing screamed angrily.
"rence, what is..." Dolores approached after closing the door.
"It''s all right," rence said.
"Since you''re here," he said to Channing, "I''ll tell you the truth."
