Chapter 492
In Conrad Group...
After delivering the documents to the conference room, Nathan came out and poured a ss of water
over to Ste.
Ste took it and said thank you. She thought for a moment before saying, "Has Conrad Group been
very busytely?"
Nathan replied sternly, "The Conrad Group has been fely."
Hearing his words, Ste froze, "Then what is rence busy with? I see that he is very busy."
Saying that, she couldn''t help but frown, "Or is something wrong with the Conrad family?"
Seeing that she misunderstood, Nathan hurriedly said, "Ms. Radomil, it''s not the Conrad Group, and it''s
not the Conrad family, it''s ..."
Nathan was a little hesitant. Since Mr. Conrad did not say, it indicated that he did not want Ste to
know these things, and he did not know whether he should tell her about this.
Ste said calmly, "Then he''s having an affair."
Nathan was so scared that he immediately said, "Mr. Conrad has actually been dealing with things with
the Steward Grouptely."
Ste was slightly stunned, "Steward Group?"
"Yes." Nathan nodded, "Ms. Radomil, you may not be aware that when Lyndon was still around, he had
already messed up the Steward Group, and many of the ounts were in serious deficit. Coupled with
Steward Group''s current situation, all project is halted, many businesses,rge or small, have gone
bankrupt as a result, and many employees have been affected."
Ste said, "Is that what he''s been working on ...tely?"
Nathan continued, "No matter what, Steward Group is one of the country''s leadingrgepanies.
Both its influence and its size are huge, and it''s apletely independent business, so there''s only so
much the Conrad Group can do."
N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.
Ste did not speak for a moment.
She would never have guessed that rence was dealing with matters of the Steward Group.
Thinking about it, she closed her eyes.
Even rence and Daniel together couldn''t handle the matter, so it could be seen how troublesome
and tricky it was.
If this was the case, then there was really no other way.
No wonder Armand and Logan had approached her.
Nathan said, "Ms. Radomil, you can trust Mr. Conrad. He can handle these things. It''s just that the
Conrad family is watching too closely, so it''s going to take a little while."
Ste pursed her lips for a few seconds before she said, "I understand."
Nathan nodded and left the office.
Ste sat on the sofa and looked nkly at the floor-to-ceiling window in front of her. No one knew
what she was thinking.
Time passed by. The sky turned from bright to gray and finally returned to ck.
The streets were lit up with one street light after another.
She had been thinking about it since Logan and the others came looking for her.
Even though both Sherry and Daniel had told her not to say yes…
They were all saying how much trouble this thing would get her into, but no one was saying that if she
chose to go down this path, it must be wrong.
Everyone knew that she might be the only one who could temporarily pull the Steward Group back from
the brink of death now.
Probably caused by the environment she grew up in, Ste just wanted to live her life well and in
peace, and it was enough for her to protect the people who mattered most to her.
But now, no matter what purpose those people were holding, they made her have to take care of this
matter.
Whether it was for herself, or for the tens of thousands of employees, or even for rence.
Just as she was lost in thought, a low male voice came from behind her, "When did you get here?"
Ste turned her head and saw that rence had already returned.
She said, "It wasn''t that long ago. Are you ... finished?"
rence sat next to her and pulled his tie with one hand, then pressed his brow, "No, there''s still a lot
of paperwork to be done."
Seeing this, Ste asked softly, "Do you have a headache?"
"A little."
Ste said, "Shall I press it for you?"
rence looked at her and raised an eyebrow slightly, "Yes."
Ste was just about to get up when rence moved his body slightly andy down on the sofa, with
his head on herp.
Ste was speechless.
All right.
She reached out and gently rubbed the man''s temple.
rence closed his eyes and rested.
After a while, after making sure he wasn''t asleep, Ste whispered, "I heard that you''ve been working
for the Steward Group recently."
rence said, "Did Nathan tell you that?"
"It doesn''t matter who said it." Ste paused, then said, "Why?"
"What why?"
"Steward Group and Conrad Group have been out of business for a long time. So even if Steward
Group copsed, it wouldn''t have much to do with Conrad Group. You''ve always been a cold-blooded
businessman who knows the pros and cons very well, so you shouldn''t have done such a thing."
rence was speechless.
He slowly raised his eyes and stared at her with his dark eyes.
Ste felt so guilty as he looked at her that she put a hand over his eyes, "I''m giving you a massage.
You just close your eyes and enjoy."
rence pulled her hand down, "In your eyes, I am a cold-blooded and cruel capitalist?"
"No, I''m just asking." Ste closed his eyes for him and continued to massage him, then added, "If
you''re doing it for me, there''s even less need. You should know that I don''t really want to get involved
with the Steward Group either."
"Are you scolding me or undermining me?"
"No, I''mplimenting you. I''m impressed by your sense of social responsibility."
"..."
After a few seconds, rence said, "Lyndon has made such a big mess that, to date, it''s not just the
Steward Group. There are many aspects involved, and even if I''m a cold-blooded, ruthless capitalist,
there are times when I asionally want to be a good person."
Ste was speechless.
This sounded so familiar.
She was silent for a moment before saying, "I want to be a good person too."
rence reopened his eyes and looking at her, then his good-looking brow furrowed slightly.
Ste continued to block his eyes with her hand, "Gee, didn''t I tell you to close your eyes?"
"Did someone say something to you?"
"Not ... It doesn''t matter whoever said something to me. I was seeing all those news rted to Steward
Group and thought ..."
Ste felt a breath of air bottled up in her chest, which could note up or down and made her feel
quite ufortable.
Without waiting for her to think of what to say, rence added, "You can leave that alone."
"I know. But ... I''d kind of like to be like you and asionally be a good person."
rence said, "You''ve thought about it?"
Ste hung her head and mumbled softly, "Almost."
Since rence had been dealing with this, what reason did she have to avoid it?
The feeling of fighting alongside him seemed pretty good too.
Hearing what she said, rence sat up, cupped her chin with his long fingers, andughed silently, "I
knew you''d do that."
Ste met his eyes and also smiled, "It means I also quite have a sense of social responsibility."
