Chapter 671


    They stayed in the town of Tekapo for a week. They could see the blue sky every morning and the


    starry sky every night.


    And there was the crystalline Lake Tekapo beside them.


    The townspeople were enthusiastic and hospitable. They would greet them every day.


    After a week, Ste had learnt some simple greetings.


    The ce was indeed a Shangri.


    It seemed to inste them from the external disturbances when staying in this ce.


    On the day of departure, Ste was reluctant to leave there. She leaned against the window of the car


    and looked outside.


    The townspeople waved goodbye to them from a distance.


    rence said, “If you like this ce so much, we cane here once a year.”


    Ste drew her attention back and looked at him, “Really?”


    rence smiled and pulled her into his arms, “What do I lie to you for?”


    Ste said, “Next time, we bring Noah here.”


    “Ok.”


    The car drove out of the town and headed for Christchurch.


    They had reached the hotel at night.


    They nned to stay for a night and departed to Semporna the next morning by their private jet.


    At midnight, when Ste was in a mist of sleep, she felt that rence woke up and picked up a call.


    After a while, she was woken up.


    rence gazed at her and said softly, “Baby, we might have to skip the trip to Semporna.”


    Ste was confused, “Huh?”


    rence said, “We should go to London now.”


    Hearing the word “London”, Ste’s sleepiness faded away.


    rence kissed her forehead, “Get up, I have packed your things.”


    It was midnight when they left Christchurch. The city was silent.


    After getting up the ne, Ste grabbed rence’s cuff and she controlled her shivering voice,


    “Anything happened?”

    rence held her hand, “I don’t know the exact situation. So, I can’t tell you now.”


    rence did not answer her directly, she was more worried. If it was nothing serious, rence wouldn''t


    change the n to Semporna and depart at midnight.


    It must be… Something happened to that person.


    On the ne to London, Ste leaned against rence. Neither did she speak or sleep.


    Possibly hours had passed, sunlight shone in through the window.


    And after a period of time, sunlight faded away from the cabin. It fell in the silent night mode again.


    Finally, the nended.


    Someone had been waiting for them on the tarmac.


    rence brought Ste into the car.


    The nearer they got to the destination, the more nervous Ste was.


    Her mind was messy. She could not calm herself down.


    After an hour, the ck car parked in front of a private hospital. Except for police cars, there were a lot


    of bodyguards standing there.


    Ste clenched her fists tighter once she went down the car.


    rence approached her and held her hand. Then, they walked into the hospital.


    The bodyguards let them in.


    After entering the hospital, there were police standing there and recording something.


    The atmosphere was suffocatingly tense.


    Just then, a man walked out from the side, “Mr. Conrad, Ms. Radomil, please follow me.”


    Ste remembered him. He was William’s assistant.


    The assistant brought them to the ward on the top floor and said, “The ward downstairs is just a


    camouge, Mr. William is here.”


    Ste looked at the man lying on the bed with an oxygen tube through the window. Her guess had been


    confirmed.


    She found herself struggling to speak, “What happened?”


    The assistant said, “Yesterday afternoon, after Mr. William left the house, he was attacked. The


    attacker was well prepared and we lost badly. Mr. William was hurt severely and fell into aa. He


    was still in a dangerous phase.”


    “Why…”


    “Those people have been spying on us for some time. They are hostile. They have robbed our goods a


    few times and they even use their guns to threaten the suppliers. It causes thepany to lose


    heavily.”


    rence said, “Have you investigated their background?”


    The assistant shook his head, “They’re desperados. They will sacrifice themselves for the sake of


    money.”


    “They want money, but who would give it to them?”


    “We have investigated everyone in thepany and ruled out the irrelevant.”


    Ste pursed her lips, “Danieles back because of this incident?”


    The assistant nodded, “Yes.”


    “Then he…”


    “Daniel has been missing for a week.”


    Ste opened her eyes widely, “What?”


    The assistant said, “Daniel had traced the group of people a week ago. Before he went missing, he


    sent us an address. But when we arrived, he had disappeared with those people.”


    “William was attacked yesterday because he got a lead on Daniel and he left in a rush. However, he


    didn''t expect that it was just a trap.”


    After Ste heard that, she was so shocked that she started to stagger and almost tumble on the floor.


    William fainted after he was shot by the gun. He was still in danger. Meanwhile, Daniel had been


    missing for one week. No one knew whether he was dead or alive…


    Sherry was pregnant and she was waiting for him in City N.


    rence held her and sat on the sofa.


    The assistant saw that and nodded to them, “Mr. Conrad, Ms. Radomil, please take a rest here. I have


    other things to deal with. Excuse me.”


    After saying that, the assistant left.


    Ste held rence’s hand. She choked, “I…”


    She opened her mouth, wanting to say something but just failed.


    rence patted her back gently and kissed her hair. He consoled her silently.


    Ste closed her eyes and the corners of her eyes were moist.


    She never expected that she would meet William again in such a situation.


    She should have…she should have pretended that she did not know anything at the beginning and


    talked to him nicely.


    Although her memory about her biological father were long gone.


    But whether it was the watch or the ring, or the fact that he went back to revenge in a different face,


    including the fact that he chose not to tell her the truth and not to tell her who he really was, all his


    actions were aimed to not let her be in a dilemma.


    He was a wonderful husband and father in every way.


    However, she never faced it and kept dodging him.


    Ste gripped rence’s clothes and sobbed silently. And she cried louder and louder.


    She did not manage to ask how he had been doing these years and whether he had lived a good life.


    She wanted to ask him about the past and about her lost memory.


    She didn''t even manage to call him “daddy” once.
