Chapter 665
In the studio, Ste was sitting in front of her desk with one of her hands supporting her chin. She was
gazing at the piercing sunlight outside the studio, and she seemed to be lost in her thoughts.
She wondered what was going on with rence’s side, and she couldn’t know whether the directors’
meeting was going well as nned.
Time was slowly ticking away, and the sun was hanging in the middle of the sky. The heat shrouded the
whole city and made it a scorching hot ce.
Just as Ste was standing up and about to make some coffee for herself, she saw some people
outside her studio slowly forming a crowd when she reached the door. They seemed to be engaged in
some heated discussion.
The girls in the studio were attracted by thismotion as they all craned their neck, wanting to find
out what was happening.
Ste put down her ss of water and slowly walked out of her studio, almost involuntarily.
As she passed through the passing crowed, she saw a man who was dressed in white shirt and ck
pants standing by a ck car. He was holding a bouquet of fiery red rose in his arm.
Under the glow of sunlight, his expression appeared a little nonchnt andzy.
When Ste got a good look at him, she couldn’t help but get stunned.
rence met her eyes and raised his brows slightly. He began to move his feet and walk to where she
was. He handed her the flower, “This beautifuldy, do I have the honor to have lunch with you today?”
There was immediately an explosion of noise around them as the crowd started to mor and whistle.
They were guessing about rence’s identity as one of those domineering CEOs who was pursuing
his sweet and demure wife.
Ste’s face swiftly flushed bright red. She didn’t know whether it was caused by the hot weather or
because she was so embarrassed.
She took over the roses quickly and dragged rence all the way back to her office.
rence had a faint smile ying around his lips, and instead of being led, he held her hand and took
the lead.
The girls in the studio all drooped their heads, pretending not to see this scene.
On the other hand, outside the studio, the surrounding crowd had dispersed, seeing that the
protagonists were no longer there.
After entering the office, Ste put the flower on one side and shut the door. She turned to him and
said, “You…”
Before she could say anything, a huge hand grasped her waist. rence was pushing her against the
door, and he was rubbing her chin lightly with his fingers, “This beautifuldy, you still haven’t answered
my question.”
Ste pushed him slightly with her face blushed, “Stop messing with me.”
rence replied, “Then I will take that as a yes.”
Ste’s lips couldn’t help but curl up. She looked up at him and asked, “Didn’t you say that you can only
come back at night?”
“Allow me to correct you. You only asked me about what I want to eat tonight.”
Ste was rendered speechless.
This bastard really knew how to y with words.
She stayed silent for a few seconds before replying, “Then… The board meeting has already ended?”

rence tucked a few strands of her hair to the back of her ear and mumbled softly, “Everything is
done.”
Ste didn’t continue the conversation as she wrapped her arms around his waist and stuck her face
on his chest.
rence looked downwards and chuckled, “What are you doing? Although I like you being the one
taking the initiative, I…”
Ste interrupted her, “Nothing. Stop talking.”
rence’s gaze became soft and gentle as he proceeded to hug her.
After some time, he repeated, “Everything’s over.”
Ste closed her eyes and replied, “Yes, I know that.”
When things finally came to an end, all she needed to do now was to wait for the little one to gain full
recovery. Then, they could finally be together forever. There wouldn’t be any nonsense or trifles
interfering with their lives.
At noon, after finishing their lunch, Ste sat in front of her desk to continue her design. rence was
simply reading a book by her side.
The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful.
When it was three in the afternoon, someone knocked on the office door.
One of the girls peeked into the office and whispered, “Ms. Radomil, someone is looking for Mr.
Conrad.”
Ste looked up at her and then at rence.
rence continued to read his book and didn’t provide any response. He simply said, “I won’t see
anyone.”
Ste added, “Just tell that person that he’s busy. He doesn’t have time.”
The girl nodded and then left.
Ste went back to focus on her draft.
If her guess was correct, it must be one of those Conrads who hade looking for him.
After some time, the girl came knocking at the door again, “Ms. Radomil, another one is here for…”
rence replied with the same thing, “Not seeing anyone.”
The whole afternoon, visitors kepting for rence, but none of them were able to meet him.
Later on, the news about rence''s departure from the Conrad Group finally spread like wildfire and
became a hot topic on the inte. People somehow acquired the information that rence was at
Ste’s studio. There were more and more people who came knocking.
Besides those from the Conrad Group, numerous reporters came too after hearing that rence had
resigned from the president’s position. They all came in the hopes of getting their hands on first-hand
news.
However, no one was able to meet rence face to face.
Ste mulled over this situation and came to the conclusion that she couldn’t simply continue her
business today. So, she ended business hours earlier than usual and allowed her employees to go off
work and get back home.
For the others who came visiting muchter, not only were they not able to meet rence, they
couldn’t even get into her studio.
While on the way back home, rence apologized, “I’m sorry, everything happens because of me.”
Ste was driving as she answered, “It’s alright. It just so happens that everyone is busy during this
period of time, and I am trying to find a chance for them to rest which is to no avail.”
rence swooped in and his voice suddenly lowered, “Do you mean that I am not disturbing your work
progress?”
Ste never thought that he would have this kind of awareness, so sheforted him, “Not at all. I can
work on my design anywhere, and I can continue it at home now…”
“If that’s the case, let’s go now.”
Ste was confused, “Where are we going?”
“Didn’t you decide on the ce already? Semporna.”
They coincidentally reached a traffic junction, and Ste stopped the car and turned her head around,
“Didn’t you say that we will only go during the weekends?”
rence mused, “ns always fall behind changes.”
“I don’t even have anything prepared yet…”
“Go pack up your necessities when you get back home. Leave the rest to me.”
Ste protested, “But…”
“Only when we were gone, those people would stop flocking to your studio and disturbing your
business.”
Ste gave this some thought and decided that he was right. She then nodded, “Alright.”
After getting back home, Ste began to pack up her stuff.
When she was tidying up the wardrobe, she suddenly saw that blue and white striped shirt which was
bought for her by rence when he went on a business trip to Mysia.
At that time when they divorced, she thought that rence would have discarded this piece of clothing.
A smile bloomed over Ste’s face as she packed that up into her luggage too.
Not long after, rence came in and asked, “Are you all packed up?”
Ste answered, “Almost done. Is time almost up?”
“Not at all. Take your time. We can go whenever we want.” rence walked to her side and took over
the shirt she was holding, “Besides these, do you have anything else that you need to bring?”
Ste recalled a few other pieces and ran back to the bedroom.
After packing up everything, when they departed, Ste called Sherry and ine to tell them about her
absence. She woulde back after a week.
