Chapter 511


    rence wasn’t at home when Ste went back.


    She fished out her phone and saw that rence had sent her a message an hour ago, saying that


    something came up at thepany and he probably wouldn’t be back tonight.


    Ste replied with a few words, saying that she had reached home. She then put her things down and


    slumped into the sofa.


    Not long after, rence called, whispering, “Have you had dinner yet”


    “I ate at Sherry’s home.”


    rence added, “Get some rest, no need to wait for me.”


    Ste paused, “Is… something wrong”


    “There’s a little problem with the project in London, but it’s not a big deal.”


    Ste said, “I’ll let you go.”


    After hanging up the phone, Stey on the sofa for a while before getting up and going to the


    bathroom.


    Ste came out of the bathroom an hourter.


    Shey on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.


    As soon as she closed her eyes, it was as if she could hear the cries of the children.


    Perhaps it was because God felt that she couldn’t even protect the two children given to her well and


    reimed her right to be a mother.


    In fact, before Ste’s first pregnancy, she didn’t like children that much.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    It was just that when a new life began to gestate in the womb, gradually gaining its consciousness and


    thoughts, and could even feel him moving in the womb, that wonderful feeling of kinship would


    unconsciously amplify one’s senses.


    It would also anticipate the arrival of the little one immensely.


    Ste dazed until thetter part of the night when she got a little bit of sleep.


    Not long after she fell asleep, she heard a subtle movement from the bedroom.


    Ste opened her eyes in a daze and saw rence walking towards the cloakroom.


    In a trance, she thought she was dreaming.


    rence had just taken out his suitcase when a tired female voice came from behind him, “Where are


    you going”


    He turned around and saw that Ste was wearing a nightgown, looking tired.


    rence walked over and took her in his arms, saying slowly, “The situation there is a bitplicated


    and I need to go over there.”


    “To London”


    “Yes.”


    Ste added, “So how many days are you going to be there”


    “I’m not sure. A week if it’s quick.”


    Ste got out of his arms, “I’ll pack your bags.”


    rence held her wrist as she took a step, “I’ll do it. You get some sleep.”


    Ste yawned and walked forward, “You once called me in the middle of the night to ask me to pack


    your luggage, and now you’re being polite.”


    rence curled his lips, wrapping his arms around her waist from behind and resting his chin on her


    shoulder, “It was different then.”


    “What was different”


    “It was just an excuse for wanting to see you at that time.”


    Ste couldn’t help but tut-tut, rummaging through the wardrobe for clothes, “I didn’t think it as an


    excuse, but rather a capitalist’s ruthless oppression and exploitation.”


    rence raised his eyebrows, “Will you evene back if I wasn’t being ruthless”


    He kept holding her, and Ste couldn’t pack his things. She lifted her shoulders, “Let go of me.”


    “No.”


    Ste was puzzled.


    rence nibbled her ear sideways, “I’ll be there for at least a week. Don’t you miss me”


    Ste said, “You haven’t left yet. Why missing you”


    rence chuckled, “Take care of yourself during my absence. If you run into any trouble or something


    you can’t solve, you can find James and Donald.”


    “Got it.”


    rence was silent, yet he still held her, not letting go of her.


    Ste whispered, “Is there anything else”


    “The Starry Lake Mansion is renovated.”


    “Ah… it’s quite fast.”


    rence’s thin lips bit on her neck.


    Ste couldn’t help but hiss and frowned, “Are you a dog”


    “Don’t you always call me the wretched man”


    Ste was speechless.


    He was pretty aware of that.


    rence added, “Let’s move over when Ie back.”


    Ste paused a while, and only after a moment did she say, “Okay. When youe back, I also have


    something to tell you.”


    “Can’t you say it now”


    “Nope.”


    rence said, “Luckily I’m not a curious person. Otherwise, I would have been overwhelmed by you for


    the whole week.”


    Ste was voiceless.


    She got out of rence’s arms, “Okay, I have to continue packing. You go out and have some rest…


    When are you leaving”


    “The five o’clock flight.”


    Ste asked, “What time is it now”


    “Three o’clock.”


    Ste said, “How about you take a nap for half an hour I’ll wake you upter.”


    rence loosened his tie, “No need. Nathan is waiting for me downstairs.”


    “I’ll pack up right away then.”


    Ten minutester, Ste closed the suitcase and sent rence to the door, waving her hand at him,


    “Take care. Call me when you reach there.”


    rence hummed, wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace, lowering his


    head to kiss her on the lips.


    Only when Ste was about to lose her breath did he let her go, “I’m leaving. Go back to sleep.”


    Ste nodded, “Bye.”


    After rence entered the lift, Ste closed the door, went back to her room and slumped back onto


    the bed, unable to sleep at all.


    But there was still a huge workload waiting for her to deal with. So Ste could only force her eyes to


    close and sleep in a daze.


    When the rm clock went off, she stretched out and lifted the covers to get up.


    All of the Steward Group’s suspended projects had now been fullyunched, and the bank loan had


    been approved too. After getting the loan, Ste had them pay out the wages owed to the workers


    immediately.


    Although this move made some of the senior management unhappy, they didn’t dare to say anything.


    They could only hold their discontent back when seeing that even Armand’s objection to Ste’s


    opinion was refuted at the meeting.


    The people that Ste had sent to take charge of different projects had now arrived at their respective


    posts and were gradually starting to catch on.


    Now, as things stood, if things went on like this and nothing went wrong, it wouldn’t take long for the


    Steward Group to get through this crisis.


    But imagination and reality were always somewhat different.


    As soon as Ste arrived at thepany, Logan came to her, saying that after starting the construction


    work, it was discovered that there was a batch of materials that had significant problems. There was no


    way to continue using them. So, they had to be reced immediately.


    And the damning thing was that the same materials were used in almost all the projects.


    This meant that all the projects would be stopped again if they couldn’t find the new recement


    materials soon.


    However, it wasn’t easy to repurchase the new materials suddenly, and it would require arge sum of


    money.


    Logan said, “Ms. Radomil, what should we do now”
