Chapter 523


    In the afternoon, when Ste saw that it was almost time, she left Steward Group and was prepared to


    go to the airport.


    But she didn’t expect to see a man leaning against the Rolls Royce not far away when she just walked


    downstairs. His posture was casual and he looked calm, looking in her direction.


    Ste was stunned. She didn’t realize what was going on for a moment. She subconsciously ran


    towards rence and jumped into his arms, hugging him tightly.


    Although fromst night until now, everyone was telling her that rence was safe, she still felt worried


    and uneasy.


    At that moment, he was standing in front of her. She hugged him and could feel his body heat.


    She wasn’t dreaming.


    rence reached out and wrapped his hands around her body. He said in a low voice while smiling,


    “Do you miss me so much?”


    Ste hugged him a bit tighter. She choked uncontrobly as she said the words, “I thought that I can’t


    see you again.”


    rence gently patted her back andforted her, “I’ll be there anytime as long as you want to see


    me.”


    Ste said in a sobbing tone, “I…wanted to go to pick you up…”


    “I havee here early. I know you can’t wait to see me. That’s why I am here to meet you.”


    Ste didn’t retort. She really wanted to meet him very much. She wanted to see him as soon as he got


    off the ne.


    rence rubbed his head, “For the sake it took me so long toe back, can you get off early and


    let’s go enjoy tonight?”


    Ste nodded her head, “Okay.”


    Donald had been guarding Ste at Steward Group and she was not in a good mood to do her work at


    the moment. She felt like she was only wasting her time to stay there.


    rence pulled open the side door and moved his head in the direction of the car, “Get in.”

    On the way back, Ste leaned on rence’s shoulder. She felt rxed after being nervous for a long


    time and fell asleep after a while.


    rence wrapped his arm around her and let out a soft sigh of relief.


    If something had happened to her while he was away, he might go crazy.


    Ste had a sound sleep and when she woke up, she was already in her bedroom in the apartment. It


    was already dark outside.


    Lying beside her on the bed, rence was sleeping and having a steady breath.


    Ste looked at him quietly for a while from the side. She kissed him on his thin lips and gently lifted the


    quilt to get up.


    Ste walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. She noticed that there were no more


    ingredients inside.


    During these days in which rence was not around, Ste always had simple diets and didn’t go to


    the supermarket.


    Ste looked at the time. In the morning, Chan told her that he woulde over in the evening. She


    thought that he should be here in a moment.


    She didn’t want to go out either. She sat on the sofa and ordered some food.


    After about ten minutes, the doorbell rang.


    It was Chan who arrived.


    Ste opened the door and saw that Channing’s clothes were a little wet. Therefore, she asked, “Is it


    raining outside?”


    Channing said, “It''s just sprinkling.”


    “Come in first.”


    After finishing her words, Ste turned around and went into the bathroom. She took a towel out and


    gave it to Channing.


    Channing took it and looked around the house, “Hasn’t rencee back yet?”


    Ste said, “He’s sleeping.”


    Channing was silent before saying, “What happenedst night?”


    “No…nothing.”


    Ste knew that if she didn’t tell Channing the truth, he would still be worried.


    Therefore, she told him the whole story.


    After listening to her words, Channing frowned.


    Ste went to pour water for him, “Well, it’s over now. I’m fine now. You don’t need to worry.”


    Channing said, “What about rence?”


    Ste paused, “I don’t know. I haven’t had time to ask him yet.”


    As she just finished her words, rence came out of the bedroom and looked at Channing with weary


    ck eyes that disyed a sense of dissatisfaction.


    rence sat on the sofa and spoke unhurriedly, “Why are you here?”


    Channing said, “Nothing.”


    With that, he told Ste, “I’m d that you are fine. Then I will leave first.”


    Ste said, “Hey, let’s eat together before you leave. It’s still raining outside, isn’t it?”


    “Never mind. I will take a taxi to leave first.”


    Ste chased after him and took an umbre from the foyer and gave it to him, “Take this umbre with


    you, or else you might catch a cold,”


    After Channing left, Ste closed the door. She walked towards rence and said in a soft voice, “Why


    were you like that? Channing rarelyes here.”


    rence leaned back on the sofa, pressing his finger against the temples. He smiled and raised his


    eyebrows slightly, reaching out and pulling her in his arms, “At this time, isn’t he the third wheel if he


    stays here? He is quite smart to realize what is going on.”


    Ste was speechless.


    She sat on rence’sp and felt that his body was a bit hot. Therefore, she reached out and touched


    his forehead and then touched her own as well, “Are you catching a cold?”


    rence made a low muffled sound, “A bit.”


    “Have you taken your medicine?”


    “Haven’t.”


    At first, Ste wanted to get up and bring him medicine. But then, she remembered that he hadn’t eaten


    anything yet, so it was better to wait until he had eatenter.


    rence said, “Did they make you in troublest night?”


    Ste shook her head, “No, the people are your brother’s subordinates. He also just wants to protect


    you…”


    “Donald told me on the phone. I know.”


    Ste added, “Then is there anything we can do now to turn things over?”


    rence said indifferently, “In two days, it will be the BOD meeting of the Steward Group.”


    “What are they trying to do during this BOD meeting?”


    “Since they got the shares of Steward Group from me, they will definitely let everyone know about it.


    Therefore, this BOD meeting is the most suitable time for them to announce the news. I guess Master


    Conrad should intend to let Justin take the shares and be part of Steward Group. In this way, as


    long as I don’t object, there is no point for others to do so.”


    The way that Master Conrad tried to make Justin be part of Steward Group was undoubtedly the


    smartest no matter which perspective one was looking it from.


    No matter what means they used to get it, but if it was Justin who was forced to take on this matter,


    rence would definitely not be as ruthless as he was when he treated Master Conrad. He would


    respect Justin a lot.


    That was why they had the opportunity to take advantage of it.


    Ste tentatively spoke, “Then … will you object it?”


    rence smiled, “They are trying to make Justin take on this matter. It’s right. I won’t do anything to


    him.”


    “But Justin is also forced to do it. He has no interest to work in Conrad Group. If he is the one who


    bes part of Conrad Group, it is just Old Master Conrad trying to do what he wants in Justin’s


    name.”


    rence wrapped his arms around Ste’s waist, putting his chin on her shoulder. He said slowly,


    “Things won’t go until this stage.”


    Ste didn’t understand his words, “What do you mean?”


    “That contract must be sent to Master Conrad so that he can do something optimally based on the


    contract. But London is so far away from here. They cannot guarantee that it can be sent


    over.”
