Chapter 487


    In the middle of the night, when Ste slept till semi-conscious, she felt the bed beside her sank


    slightly. Then, she fell into a warm embrace.


    She closed her eyes, and her voice was filled with fatigue, “Did you juste back?”


    rence said yes, patted her on the back lightly with his big palm, and said in a low voice, “Continue


    sleeping.”


    Ste habitually wrapped her arms around his waist and fell asleep again very soon.


    In the darkness, rence kissed her on the forehead.


    Now, Phoebe was caught, but Lyndon was still nowhere to be found.


    He was like a time bomb, no one knew when it would explode.


    Right now, the Steward Group’s internal chaos had be a huge mess, and many ounts had


    been in deficit, A group of high-level managers quitted and left thepany, leaving only employees


    who knew nothing.


    If no one stood up to preside over the situation, thepany that had stood firmly in City N for


    centuries, the family business that had been passed down several generations would copse


    overnight. Its copse would be seen as if it had never existed before. Many Steward Group’s


    employees would also suffer a huge blow.


    The person who caused these consequences was Lyndon.


    Because of one person’s selfish desire, thousands of people were harmed.


    Regardless of how many times he died, it was not enough topensate for what he had done.


    …


    The next day, when Ste’s rm clock rang, rence was no longer sleeping beside her.


    She got up with a yawn, washed up and went out of the bedroom.


    Alisa was already in the kitchen preparing breakfast, “Madam, you’re awake. The meal will be ready


    soon.”


    Ste looked around, “Where is rence?”


    Alisa said, “I just arrived, and Mr. Conrad left, saying that there is something in thepany, and he


    asked me to tell you that he might be quite busy recently, and you don’t have to miss him.”


    Ste was speechless.


    Who missed him!


    Halfway through the meal, Ste suddenly remembered something and asked, “Alisa, did the family


    next door give birth to a baby?”


    Alisa shook her head, “I’m not sure, I haven’t seen anyone next door.”


    “I haven’t seen them either.”


    Alisaughed, “If you like babies, you can have one too.”


    Hearing this, Ste paused and didn’t say anything.


    Seeing this, Alisa thought that Ste was thinking of the child she had before. She said cautiously,


    “Madam, did I say something wrong?”


    Ste said, “No, I just think that kids are really cute.”


    For thest few times, rence didn’t wear a condom when they did it, so she wasn’t sure if she could


    get pregnant.


    Just let God decide.


    After the meal, Ste went to the studio.


    After a rest, a lot of work had been backlogged.


    Although fashion week was still a few months away, there were many things that needed to be


    determined in advance and must be prepared as soon as possible.


    In the afternoon, Sherry came knocking on the door and asked in a low voice, “Ste, are you busy?”


    Ste stretched out and said, “It’s okay, what’s wrong?”


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    “There two people outside… They say they are employees of the Steward Group, and they want to see


    you.”


    Ste froze, “They are here to see me?”


    Sherry nodded, “Yes, if you don’t want to see them, I’ll just reject their request.”


    It had been a while since the Steward Group’s anniversary celebration.


    Ste did not pay much attention to the Steward Group’s affairs, butst night she saw the news saying


    that several major projects of the Steward Group were called to a halt. However, there was no one to


    lead the situation, which made the employees extremely panic.


    Ste paused a while and said, “Let them in.”


    “Okay.”


    But what Ste didn’t expect was that she knew both of them.


    One was the leader who tried to get Madison drunk at the table before, Armand.


    Another person was the single father that Madison once said she would introduce to her, Logan.


    Compared to the time they met before, once Armand entered the office, he was very agitated, sobbing


    emotionally. He approached Ste and stretched out his hands to shake hers, “Ms. Radomil, I really


    thank you for taking the time to meet us although you have a busy schedule, I really…”


    Ste avoided his hand and said lightly, “No need to be so polite, just go straight to the point.”


    Armand awkwardly wiped the sweat on his forehead and sat in the sofa, “During thest anniversary


    celebration, we only know that you are the real heir of the Steward Group. You must have heard about


    the current situation of thepany, so we have no choice but to…”


    Logan took over the conversation, “It’s better for me to say it. Ms. Radomil, since the chairman


    disappeared, the Steward Group has be a mess. Whether it is the partners or the employees,


    they don’t know what they will face in the future. They also don’t know what thepany will be.


    We can’t make any decisions at all. Hence, we would like to ask you, what do you think about the


    Steward Group?”


    Ste said, “I don’t have any rtionship with the Steward Group.”


    Armand said, “Yes, yes, yes. Those problems were created by the chairman… No, it’s Lyndon. We can


    differentiate between good and bad. Naturally, we will not let you take over this mess. But thousands of


    employees in thepany are innocent, as well as thoserge and small partners. All of them have a


    family to feed. Losing thepany may be not a big deal to others, but for them, they have invested all


    their assets and energy into thepany. This will lead to an unknown number ofpanies to go


    bankrupt and families to fall apart.”


    Hearing this, Ste frowned and did not speak.


    Logan then added, “We also understand that you do not have any obligation to take responsibility for


    the employees, but that is not just thousands of people involved, but thousands of families.”


    Armand continued, “Yes! The other senior members of the Steward Group have all run away. We have


    worked for so many years in thispany, and the employees are like our family members. I really


    can’t bear it.”


    After hearing this, Ste looked at him, “Your rtionship with the employees is like a family?”


    Armand thought that Ste was going to ept their request. He patted his thigh and said, “Isn’t it


    right? We can’t leave our family alone!”


    Ste said “Oh”, and continued, “Maybe I’m too ignorant or I’ve seen too little about the world, it was


    my first time seeing that someone will actually force their family members to drink and trying to harm


    her.”


    In an instant, Armand’s face was filled with indescribably embarrassment and awkward.


    He forced himself to speak, “That… that was because I was drunk at the time and started to say


    nonsense. I hope that you won’t take it to heart.”


    Logan also said, “Ms. Radomil, Mr. Bernard may have made some mistakes in certain aspects, but he


    has worked in the Steward Group for more than ten years, he must have feeling towards thepany.”


    “Logan is right. The Steward Group is considered as my home. Now, I’m going to lose my home. I can’t


    possibly stand aside and do nothing,” Armand sighed deeply, “If you are still mad about what had


    happened before, I can go…”


    Ste interrupted him, “You guys came here to see me, so what do you want me to do?”
