Chapter 596
Hearing the sounding from the doorway, Ste looked toward the door.
rence walked beside her, “Has he eaten?”
“A little bit,” Ste said, “I had asked the doctor just now and the doctor said that if he still eats very little
at noon, then he will need to get the intravenous drip treatment.”
After a few seconds, rence talked, “I need to go to Riverside City in the afternoon, I have no idea of
when I will be back.”
Hearing of the words ‘Riverside City’, Ste was stunned, and she recalled what Donald had told her
yesterday. The things that had urred recently, were probably done by those people from Riverside
City.
rence had chosen to go there at this time, was it because…
Ste said, “Is his illness rted to those people from Riverside City?”
rence nodded. Previously, he had investigated who was the driving force behind Joanna, now it
could be seen that it was most probably the James family.
He said, “Over the period when I’m not here, Maxwell will always protect you. About the Steward
Group, Armand and Logan are now in the prison already, so the biggest hidden danger is no longer
there. I will let Francis help you to manage all the matters temporarily, and Donald is also here. You can
just stay in the hospital, don’t go elsewhere.”
Ste looked at Noah who was in the bed, her voice didn’t reveal her emotion, “I know.”
Seeing this, rence took her into his arms and spoke in a low voice, “It will be fine, wait till Ie
back.”
“You must be careful.”
The corners of rence’s mouth curved up, he let her go and kissed her lips quickly when she was not
paying attention, then he turned and left.
Ste was speechless.
She turned her head, she saw that Noah was sitting on the bed and looking at her curiously. Then, it
seemed like he was in good spirits, his little hands were shaking the toys and he was giggling.
Ste couldn’t stop herself from smiling, she stretched her hand and pinched his nose.
After a while, Sherry hade back, she said, “Ste, I saw that Mr. Conrad has gone outbatively
just now, it seems like he is going to get even with someone, where is he going?”
Ste said, “Riverside City.”
Sherry was curious, “Why does he go there?”
“It’s a bitplicated, I don’t know how to say, it’s because… Maybe Noah’s illness is rted to them.”
Sherry was shocked, “Oh no, the Riverside City is so far away from City N, who the hell is so crazy to
make this thing happen to a child?”
Ste pursed her lips, her voice became cold, “Maybe it’s still rted to Joanna.”
She should have known earlier that this thing wouldn’t end just because of the death of Joanna.
If not, Joanna wouldn’t havemitted suicide so easily during that time.
Sherry insulted them intensely for a while, then she said again, “Then what shall we do now, when
rence will be back, can Noah’s illness be cured when he’s back?”
Ste shook her head, “I have no idea, just wait.”
Apart from waiting, she couldn’t do anything now.
Sherry sighed and looked at Noah on the bed, “Anyway, Ste, I can roughly understand rence’s
thought during that time when I see you today.”
Ste startled slightly, “What?”
“When Noah was born during that time, rence had concealed the truth and he didn’t want to tell
you,” Sherry said, “Have you looked into the mirror? Your eyes are always wet today, they are red and
swollen all the time. When I came here just now, I was scared when seeing that you were having a
nightmare.”
Listening to these, Ste lowered her head and didn’t say anything.
When Noah was just born, his conditions might be even worse than now.
She had heard from Chan that Noah was always sent to the emergency room for rescue.

Some more, he was so small during that time.
Ste closed her eyes, she felt a bit sad.
Seeing this, Sherry was quick-witted, and she had changed the subject, “Ste, by the way, I’ve never
heard of you talking about your son’s name, what’s his name?”
Ste opened her eyes, she kept silent for a while, then she said, “Noah.”
She had given him this name when she was in City N.
She hoped that he would grow up safely and happily.
However, it seemed like this might not be the case at this moment.
Sherry read the name, then she suddenly said, “Noah, Noah Conrad, it sounds great.”
Ste was speechless.
It’s fine.
After a few minutes, the door of the ward was pushed open.
It was Daniel.
He said, “Ms. Radomil, I’ve heard of the things that had happened recently, what can I do for you?”
Ste pursed her lips gently, “Riverside City, can you help me to investigate the info rted to this
ce?”
Daniel said, “Riverside City? Do you mean Darnell?”
“Who is Darnell?”
Daniel sat beside Sherry, “Darnell is the current head of the James family, all the outsiders addressed
him as Master of Riverside. But I’ve never met this person, I heard that he is quite cruel. He will eat
human flesh, drink human blood and gnaw the bones of a human.”
Ste was speechless.
Sherry was speechless too.
The scene of a ferocious beast sitting in front of a gloomy dining table and ripping a bloody bone
suddenly popped into their heads.
A cold shiver ran down Sherry’s spine, she let out a hollowugh, “Is… Is it so horrible?”
“Of course this is just a rumour. In short, he is not a man to be trifled with.” Daniel paused for a while,
then he said, “By the way, why are you asking me about this suddenly?”
Ste said, “The Conrad family… Nope, to be exact, shall be Joanna, perhaps she had kept in touch
with the people from Riverside City. The things that had happened recently, probably were all done by
the people from Riverside City, including… Noah’s illness.”
Daniel frowned, “Are you sure?”
Ste nodded gently, “rence has gone to Riverside City just now. No matter how far they have gone
for, it can be confirmed that these things are definitely rted to them.”
“But from what I know, the James family will never step out from Riverside City, let alone to care about
the things that happen outside Riverside City. If what you’ve said is true, for what reason do they want
to rack their brains and travel for a long distance to create so many troubles at City N?”
Sherry said, “Isn’t it that Ste just said that they had kept in touch with Joanna? Perhaps they were
having some underhand deals. Joanna always didn’t like rence, even… Anyway, I think that those
who had stayed in touch with Joanna, are not good people. There must be some hidden purposes
behind them!”
Ste pondered and said, “Is it because the James family wants to expand their power, so they have
aimed the Conrad family, thinking of recing them?”
Daniel said, “This is the only reasonable exnation, Darnell won’t offend rence at this moment
unless they want to destroy and rece the Conrad family, then shift their power to City N.”
Ste didn’t understand, “This moment, at what moment?”
Daniel exined, “The previous head of the James family had passed away not long before, Darnell’s
position is actually still unstable.”
Sherry was curious, “Why?”
