Chapter 400


    Ste woke up at six o’clock in the next morning. She opened her eyes and looked at the dark sky,


    seeming to be pondering something.


    She though over it for the whole night, yet still couldn’t understand why rence would bring her to


    visit his mother at this point of time.


    It was impossible that it was simply because of her words.


    Before, whenever she told him that she wanted to visit Dolores, rence would shift the topic. But this


    time he directly brought her here.


    Ste really couldn’t figure out what rence was thinking.


    Feeling sleepless, Ste was absent-minded for a while. Then she lifted the quilt and got off the bed,


    preparing to go to the garden downstairs.


    When she closed the door, rence slowly opened his eyes.


    The sky gradually became bright. When Ste went to the garden, the sky was a bit overcast and she


    could vaguely see the road.


    She sat on a swing and swung casually.


    The air here was quite fresh. Sometimes when there was a breeze, Ste could smell the fragrance of


    flowers.


    Many things had happened during this period and Ste was nervous every day. She felt it good to sit


    on a swing with a nk mind.


    She sat there for an hour and the sky became brighter.


    Ste took a nce at her phone and thought it was time to get into the house. She then walked into


    the kitchen to prepare breakfast.


    They had toe back to City N after the breakfast and they would arrive there at noon at the soonest.


    When Dolores got up, she found that Ste had prepared the breakfast and asked, “Ste, why don’t


    you sleep for a longer while?”


    Ste replied with a smile, “I had a good sleepst night and I couldn’t fall asleep again after waking


    up.”


    Dolores said, “Leave the rest matters to me. Go upstairs and wake up re.”


    “Okay.”


    Ste immediately went upstairs. When she pushed open the door, she found that rence was


    wearing his shirt.


    Ste, “?”


    She took a nce at the shirt on the sofa and asked, “Didn’t you say that you didn’t bring clothes for


    changing here?”


    “I lied to you, but you believed it.”


    Wretched man, damn you!


    rence curled his lips into a smile, picked up the necktie aside, walked to Ste and raised his brows,


    “Can you help me?”


    Ste sneered, “You also wore a necktie when I was not by your side.”


    rence curled his lips into a smile, leaned forwards and whispered into her ear, “Of course I can wear


    it by myself. It’s just that the expression doesn’t feel that good.”


    Ste recalled the scenes of that night and immediately blushed. She anxiously grabbed the necktie


    from him, randomly tied it, gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, “Can you not be that annoying?”


    Ste still had a red face when she went downstairs.


    Seeing this, Dolores asked, “Ste, what’s wrong? Did you catch a cold because of your thin clothes?


    This ce hasrge temperature difference between morning and evening. Have you taken pills?”


    Ste hurriedly waved her hands, “No need. It’s just that…”


    She couldn’t find an excuse at the moment and could only step heavily on the culprit rence.


    rence said without any expressional change, “She’s good. She would bluish when she’s excited.”


    Dolores was confused, “Excited?”


    rence said slowly, “Maybe she was so excited when she opened her eyes and saw such an


    outstanding and perfect boyfriend.”


    Dolores, “…”


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    Ste, “…”


    Oh gosh, she wished so much that she could be as cheeky as him, in that case, she would not be so


    embarrassed that she even wanted to hide herself under the table.


    Dolores coughed and directly ignored that topic, “Well, you almost finish the breakfast. Hurry up to set


    off. It’ste now.”


    Ste hurriedly nodded her head, “I will go upstairs to package up my things.”


    It was an excuse for her to leave this awkward ce.


    Dolores lifted her head and watched her disappeared on the stairs. Then she asked in a low voice,


    “How’s the little baby?”


    rence put down his ss and replied slowly, “He’s good.”


    He paused and then said, “I will arrange some men to send you back this afternoon.”


    Dolores heaved a sigh silently, “You’re so…”


    She paused and shook her head helpless and then gathered the dishes and walked into the kitchen.


    Sitting at the dining table, rence licked his teeth.


    He specially brought Ste here and her suspicions before must have disappeared.


    At least they would disappear for a period as long as there was no idence.


    rence pinched his nose bridge, his facial features looking cold.


    After a short while, Ste went downstairs with her luggage, “I finish it. Let’s go.”


    She ran to the door of the kitchen and said to Dolores, “Ms. Anderson, we will leave now. Please take


    care of yourself.”


    Dolores nodded her head, “Rest assured.”


    After their leaving, Dolores walked out of the kitchen and began to throw the things in the refrigerator


    into the trash can.


    Ste had a strange feeling that it took less time for them toe back and the helicopternded in


    City N soon.


    rence directly sent her back to her studio and rubbed her head, “Then I will go now?”


    Ste nodded her head, “Will youe back to thepany directly?”


    “Yes.”


    Ste reached out to pull open the car door, “Come back quickly. I…”


    Before he could finish her words, she was pulled back by rence. He leaned forwards, leaned a kiss


    on her lips and tasted it for a while. Then he let go of her and said with satisfaction, “Go back.”


    Ste curled her lips into a smile, got off the car and left.


    The driver asked, “Mr. Conrad, are weing back to thepany?”


    Looking at Ste’s back, rence replied, “Go to the other ce first.”


    The driver understood it immediately, “Okay.”


    When Ste walked into the studio, Sherry hurriedly followed her into the office and asked, “Ste,


    where have you been?”


    Ste sat onto the chair, “I went to the other city. What’s the matter?”


    Sherry said in a low voice, “Charles came to find you this morning. I guess it’s because he’s not


    satisfied with the statement you post yesterday and wants our studio to post a new statement. Luckily


    you were not here. But be careful when youe back to the Steward family today. He looked gloomy


    and I’m afraid that he will make use of every chance to go hard on you.”


    “It’s okay.” Ste replied, “He has never been kind to me.”


    It seemed like it was a wise choice as she didn’te back to the Steward familyst night; otherwise,


    Charles would have required her to post a new statement. Luckily she was not presentst night.


    Now as it had been dragged for a long time, it was meaningless even if she posted a new statement


    now.


    Sitting beside her, Sherry put her head on the desk and heaved a sigh, “How long will you live in the


    Steward family. Nope, I should ask you when you will expose Charles and Phoebe’s real faces.”


    Ste paused when she heard the words and her smile gradually disappeared.


    Not to mention the fact Steward family that had a deep-rooted foundation, Charles alone was hard to


    deal with. From the things he did in the past, she could tell that he was extremely thoughtful, scheming


    and prudent.


    It was hard to get something on him unless he gave the show away or unless there was certain


    evidence. Otherwise, she could not shake his status at all.


    Even Cameron could not directly offend Charles. It was enough to prove that Charles was powerful.
