Chapter 546
Twenty minutester, the ck Rolls-Royce stopped at the gate of themunity.
Seeing the car, Maxwell hurriedly walked over, “Mr. Conrad.”
rence was enveloped in a cold aura at this moment as if he was a demon who crawled out of hell.
He asked in a cold voice, “Have you found them?”
Maxwell shook his head, “We checked the wholemunity and all the basements, and we even
searched the areas outside of themunity carefully, but we still failed to find them.”
rence abruptly turned around and grabbed Maxwell’s cor, his voice icy-cold, “How did I instruct
you before?”
Maxwell lowered his head, “I failed in my duty.”
“Failing in your duty?” rence sneered and pushed him aside, “Can you get them back by ming
yourself for failing in your duty?”
rence closed his eyes and continued, “Have you investigated the cause of this fire ident?”
“We’re investigating it. But the fire spread in an instant. It seems like it’s not a pure ident.”
rence asked in a cold voice, “One can easily find out this is not an ident if he’s not brainless.”
He turned his head to look at Maxwell, “Do you remember the appearance of the woman who pulled
you before?”
“Probably.”
“Probably?”
Maxwell immediately said, “I remember it clearly.”
rence gave an order, “Find her as soon as possible.”
“Okay.”
Maxwell received the order and left in strides.
rence then ordered his subordinate who was waiting aside, “Go contact the manager of the
apartment. I want to know about the cause of the fire as soon as possible. Moreover, contact the police
to get the surveince videos of the wholemunity. If you found any suspicious people, immediately
catch them no matter what they want to do.”
“Yes, Mr. Conrad. I will arrange it right away.”
“Hold on.” rence then asked, “Did Amanda disappear too?”
His subordinate nodded his head, “Yes.”
“Call Vincent and ask him to find out the whereabouts of Amanda’s boyfriend.”
After his subordinate’s leaving, rence stood on the spot. Looking at the boisterous crowd not far
away, he pressed his thin lips into a straight line and slowly clenched his fists tightly.
The manager of the apartment hurriedly walked over after a short while, “Mr. Conrad, I don’t know
you’re also here. I…”
“Cut the craps.”
The man wiped the sweats on his forehead, “Mr. Conrad, let me take you there.”
The fire had been extinguished and the whole building was still dripping with water. The inhabitants of
the apartment were allining about the fire, looking worried and scared.
They went upstairs to the floor where the fire broke up. The manager of the apartment said, “Mr.
Conrad, be careful of the wet floor.”
Standing at the door of the burnt house, the manager said, “This is the ce where the fire broke out. I
asked a firefighter just now and he told me this house had stored arge sum of mmable materials.
As long as there was a spark, it would easily cause a big fire.”
“Who was the inhabitant of this house before?”
The assistant of the manager hurriedly walked over and said, “A You Tuber rented this house as her
warehouse before, but she terminated the rental contract two days ago. Thendlord was not in the city
and he didn’t have the time toe here to inspect the house. Moreover, that You Tuber left without
asking thendlord to return her guarantee deposit, so…”
rence stood at the balcony and looked up.
This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
They were now on the fifteenth floor and the house they lived in was on the twentieth floor.
Once the fire began to spread, Maxwell and the others would not have any time to hesitate and they
would immediately choose to go downstairs from the exit passageway.
It seemed like this was a well-prepared n.
The manager said, “Mr. Conrad, er…”
rence said in a cold voice, “Contact that You Tuber and check whether it was she who ced those
inmmable materials here.”
The manager’s assistant received the order and left. The manager continued, “Mr. Conrad, your house
is on the twentieth floor, right? I guess the house is probably seriously damaged. Would you like to go
upstairs to have a look?”
rence replied with a nasal sound. After taking two steps, he found the manager was following
behind him, and said, “I will go upstairs myself. Go on with your own business.”
“Okay.”
When he arrived on the twentieth floor, rence walked to the house which was at the end of the
corridor, put in the passwords and entered the house.
The whole house was pervaded with the smell of smoke and half of its curtains and sofas were burnt.
rence walked to the baby’s crib and fixed his eyes on the feeding bottle and toys that were left on
the crib as they didn’t have time to take them away. His ck eyes were so unfathomable. It seemed
like he was pondering something.
After a long while, he turned around and left.
He opened the door of the next room and took out a suitcase from the cloakroom. Then he packaged
all the things that Ste usually used and her clothes into the suitcase.
As soon as rence went downstairs, he received a call from Vincent. Vincent asked, “What
happened?”
“I have a foreboding.”
Vincent said, “If the one who nned this was Amanda’s boyfriend, he would at most try to get some
money. What else can he do? Just rest assured. I’m on the way and we will get the news soon.”
rence replied with a nasal sound and ended the call. Then he handed the suitcase to his
subordinate, “Send it to the Starry Lake Mansion.”
…
At the same time…
On the other side…
Holding Little Noah who kept crying in her embrace, Amanda took a nce at the back seat and said
anxiously, “Where are we going? What’s wrong with Ms. Anderson? She has been unconscious…”
Logan, who was driving the car,forted her in a soft voice, “It’s just that she has inhaled too much
smoke and she’s unconscious temporarily. She will wake up soon.”
“Where are we going? At least you should tell me this.”
“Rest assured. I will take you to a safe ce and no one will find us.”
Amanda was burning with anxiety, “I feel so anxious. Can you please give me your phone? I want to
make a call? They will get anxious if they can’t find us.”
Her phone was lost when she went downstairs and before she could contact rence, Logan showed
up in the crowd and told her that he would take her out as there were many people there.
As Amanda had to take care of the child, plus that she trusted Logan a lot, she didn’t think too much of
it. She thought she could get out first and find Maxwellter. However, unexpected, just as they took
two steps, Dolores, who followed behind her, passed out. Logan supported Dolores up from the ground
and led them to the car.
Before Amanda could say anything, Logan had started the car.
Logan looked towards her, “Amanda, actually I have been keeping one thing a secret from you.”
“What’s it?”
Logan continued, “Actually, I’ve been working for Ms. Radomil during this period. You must also know
it. Ms. Radomil has be the new person in charge of the Steward Group and I’m her subordinate.”
Amanda subconsciously became nervous, “So… So what?”
“Ms. Radomil has learned about what you’re doing.” When speaking, Logan took a nce at the baby
in Amanda’s arms and narrowed his eyes, “She also knows that this is her baby.”
Amanda was shocked and her pupils amplified, “Im… Impossible. Mr. Conrad has been keeping it a
secret. Ms. Radomil won’t be able to learn about this.”
Logan heaved a sigh, “It’s because Mr. Conrad has been keeping it a secret from Ms. Radomil that she
was so angry when learning about the truth. She ordered me to take the child to a ce where Mr.
Conrad can’t find him and she will wait for us there.”
Before Amanda could say anything, Logan continued, “Hence, you can’t report this to Mr. Conrad. As
for whether my words are true or not, you will know it when we arrive at the ce, right?”
