Chapter 486


    On the other side…


    Since Mr. Jason was hospitalized, Reba and her mother basically did not return to their house.


    Although Reba had specially arranged a maid to deliver meals, Phoebe remained vignt at all


    times.


    She had secretly inquired about the matter and found out that Ste did not met a car ident at all.


    Despite of this, rence’s people were still looking for her. She took the jewelries she got from Aurora


    and escaped from ce to ce. Finally, she arrived at the Jason family’s house without alerting


    anyone.


    The good thing was that she did not have any contact with the Jason family for quite a long time


    already. Plus, the Jason family was facing difficulties and could not even secure themselves. Hence,


    rence did not suspect that she would stay with the Jason family.


    However, staying here was not a long-term solution.


    She had to find a way to get the Jason family to send her out of the country. Now that Horace was in


    Switzend, the Jason family must have a way to send her away without being discovered by


    rence.


    Thinking of this, Phoebe called Reba, but no one answered the call.


    Phoebe frowned, and a sense of irritation rose in her heart.


    She could not go out now, and she did not know how Mr. Jason’s condition in the hospital was right


    now.


    If Reba wanted to avoid her on purpose, she might deliberately drag the time and would note


    back at all.


    When the sky darkened, footsteps came from outside the door.


    But unlike before, these footsteps sounded steady and strong. It was obviously a man.


    Phoebe grasped the fruit knife in her hand tightly and looked at the door warily.


    Soon, the door was opened, and the slender figure of the man appeared in her sight.


    When Phoebe saw his face, she frowned and said, “It’s you.”


    After a pause, he said, “Why are you here? Uh, when did youe back?”


    Horace stood at the door and looked at her quietly. His gaze gradually moved downwards and stopped


    on the fruit knife in her hand. “Ms. Steward, since you came and be the guest of the Jason’s


    family, I must serve you personally.”


    Hearing this, Phoebe remained alert. She looked at him coldly and said, “Since your sister told you that


    I’m staying here, then you should know the reason behind this. If those things about her are leaked to


    the public, it will bring great impact to the Jason family and rence will not her go too.”


    Horace smiled faintly, “Since you said so, I want to ask you a question. My sister and Ste have never


    talked to each other before, how did she know that Ste was pregnant?”


    “Annie told her.”


    “Is that so?” Horace continued, “How did Annie know?”


    Phoebe remained silent and her expression got colder.


    “I’m sure that you know who caused this matter. Before you did these things, didn’t you think that you


    will be in this kind of situation today?”


    Phoebe snickered, “I was framed by Ste for being in this situation today. It wasn’t enough for her to


    only harm me, she even harmed the Steward family! Can’t you see the picture? That woman used


    tricks to marry rence a few years ago, and now she is using tricks to nder me and my father. All


    of you are tricked by her but you never realized. Someday, the truth will be revealed!”


    Horace spoke in an icy tone, “You imed that you are ndered. But did Ste force you to do all


    these things?”


    “I…”


    Phoebe was speechless for a moment. After a pause, she said coldly, “I just want her to reveal her true


    side.”


    “Then you sent someone to do something in her, trying to create a car ident, so that she would die


    in an ident. You did this because you wanted to reveal her true side?”


    “That’s what she deserved! She took everything that belonged to me. She even made the Steward


    Group be what it is today. I just didn’t expect that she didn’t actually get in that car.”


    Horace looked at her, he spoke in an emotionless tone, “Ms. Steward, you should be clear that no


    matter what, you have to pay the price for what you have done.”


    Phoebeughed and said, “Fine, I will pay for what I did. What about your elder sister? Should she also


    pay for what she did?”


    “Of course.”


    Hearing these words, the smile on Phoebe’s face fainted a little.


    Horace took a few steps backwards and the lights outside was turned on.


    Only then did Phoebe realize that there were several people standing in the garden.


    Among them, rence was there too.


    rence stood in the dark, and his voice was tinged with cool chills, “Tell me, what did Ste take from


    you? Me?”


    In an instant, Phoebe’s expression be as ugly as it could be.


    rence added, “If you have some self-awareness, you should know clearly that even without Ste, I


    still wouldn’t be attracted by you.”


    He continued slowly, “So, I’m quite curious that what kind of emotion you’re in when you say these


    words.”


    These words seemed to agitate Phoebepletely. She screamed, “You are just an illegitimate child!


    You have no right to look down on me! I’m the one who is not attracted by you!”


    rence smiled instead of anger, “I have to remind you one thing. You father, Charles, did not get


    married and had children. You’re just an illegitimate daughter he took home when he had no choice. To


    say the least, it was you who snatched Ste’s things. You took her identity and lived with it for twenty


    years.”


    “You’re talking nonsense!”


    When he saw her response, rence did not intend to continue dwelling with her. He tilt his head and


    said, “Mr. Jonathan, you should have heard the crime she confessed just now.”


    After saying that, rence turned around and left.


    Before Phoebe could react, she saw several people in police uniforms walking towards her.


    Her face turned pale instantly, and as she struggled, the fruit knife in her hand cut her cheeks. Blood


    smeared over half of her face.


    In the backyard, only Phoebe’s screams were heard.


    After rence stepped out if the Jason family’s house, he turned his head and looked at the man


    behind him. He said indifferently, “Why are you following me? Are you trying to tell me that I need to


    thank you for this?”


    Without waiting for Horace to answer, rence continued, “You have hidden Phoebe for so long, I am


    already generous enough for not holding anyone ountable.”


    Horace said, “I will convey my apologies to Ste on behalf of my sister.”


    rence said, “I will pass your message to her, you don’t have to go and find her.”

    After a few seconds, Horaceughed suddenly.


    rence frowned unhappily, “What are youughing at?”


    “I just didn’t expect that you’ll be so afraid of me seeing Ste. This shows that you have no confidence


    in the rtionship between both of you.”


    rence, “Heh.”


    Horace continued, “Mr. Conrad, if you understand Ste’s personality, you should know what kind of


    person she is. She will only give one chance to some specific things, so I hope that you’ll cherish it.”


    rence narrowed his eyes and said nothing.


    “I have to go to the hospital now. Goodbye, Mr. Conrad.”
