Chapter 711


    Ste was wet from the rain, when she got home, she took a hot shower and thenid down on the


    bed, soon falling asleep.


    Not long after, the doorbell rang.


    rence opened the door, looking at the person standing outside he asked, "What is it?"


    Sherry asked in a small voice, "How is Ste?"


    "She’s asleep."


    "Is she okay?"


    "Yeah."


    Sherry nodded, then mumbled, "That’s good."


    As she said that, she turned and was about to leave.


    "Wait." rence called for her, "Do you know how to make ginger soup?"


    Sherry was surprised, "What?"


    rence said, "She was caught in the rain. Ginger soup can prevent her from getting sick."


    Sherry finally reacted, and nodded, "Sure, let me do it."


    She couldn’t cook as well as Ste did, and she didn’t like to make food herself, but the easy things she


    could still do.


    Compared to rence who didn’t know cooking at all, she was not so bad.


    Sherry just entered the kitchen when rence said, "I need to go out. Keep an eye on her."


    "Okay."


    Hearing the clicking of the lock, Sherry took a deep breath, nd started looking for ginger in the kitchen.


    Not long after, the hot ginger soup was done.


    Sherry took the bowl and went to the bedroom. She put it on the night stand and went ahead to wake


    Ste.


    "Ste? Ste?"


    Ste was still asleep, but she heard someone calling her name so she answered.

    Sherry said, "Come, drink the ginger soup and then go back to sleep, so you won’t get sick."


    When she heard Sherry’s voice, Ste’s mind was a bit clearer, but she felt that the world was spinning


    around her.


    Sherry noticed that something was off so she touched her forehead, it was burning a little.


    Ste sat up, her nose already stuffy, "Where is rence?"


    "He said he was going out, maybe he has something to take care of."


    Ste nodded, then asked Sherry, "How are you?"


    Sherry answered, "I am well. But it was my fault for being too impulsive. Iif it wasn’t me who ran there


    right away after getting the message, you wouldn’t have fallen into the trap and went to the roof."


    Steughed, "It has nothing to do with you. Even if you weren’t there, he would have found another


    way. Lyndon had been hiding for too long. If we didn’t have a chance like this, he wouldn’t have shown


    himself."


    "So it’s all good now, that scourge is dead." Sherry paused for a second before continuing, "Right, I


    saw that Caesar was also in the restaurant, and he was shing with rence. Oh, and also, there


    was this Darnell. Didn’t Caesar take ine for dinner? What was going on there?"


    "This is veryplicated, Sherry. I haven’t told you before because I didn’t want to drag you into this.


    Caesar is not a good person. We''re quite certain that he is working with Lyndon, but they gave up on


    Lyndon for some reason. Because of this Lyndon fell from the roof today."


    Sherry paused, "I thought he was alright, which was why I let ine leave with him today. I..."


    Ste grabbed her hand, hesitating before she said, "Sherry, there is something else. You remember


    ine was taken away before, right? He was the one behind it."


    Sherry was stunned when she heard that.


    So that meant, her baby...


    Ste said, "Don’t worry, he will pay for what he had done."


    Sherry looked down, her nose tingling.


    Ste leaned over to hug her.


    After a while, Sherry asked, "Daniel, how is he?"


    After Sherry got back, she had seen the news that the Steward Group was mortgaging assets. She had


    meant to ask, but Ste was not in a good condition, so she didn’t want to trouble her more.


    Ste said, "He will be alright, they gave me two days, and there is still one day left."


    "But so much money..."


    Ste patted her on the shoulder, "As long as they are in City N, there will be a solution."


    Sherry suddenly remembered, "Right, in City N, nobody is more formidable than rence, the king of


    hell."


    Steughed on that. Well, rence had earned himself a new nick name.


    Sherry let go of her and rubbed her eyes, "Alright, alright, let’s not talk about that anymore. Drink the


    ginger soup when it’s still warm."


    Ste agreed.


    She took the bowl and took one sip. It was still hot.


    Sherry said to her, "Ste, drink that and then sleep. Sweat a little. If you are still not feeling well you


    need to take medicine tomorrow."


    Ste nodded, "I should be fine."


    When she finished the soup, Sherry tucked her in the nket on all sides.


    Sherry took the empty bowl, "Sleep, I am going home."


    Ste answered in a small voice, "Good night."


    "Night"


    After Sherry left, Ste closed her eyes again. She didn’t know if it was the ginger soup that started


    kicking, but the scenes in her dream became terrifying.


    First it there was the fire that haunted her from time to time. She felt so hot that she was sweating.


    Then after that, the fire turned into pouring rain.


    Ste couldn’t even react yet when she saw that someone fell off the building in front of her.


    The next second, she felt as if someone was pushing her from behind, and she couldn’t control herself


    but to fall as well.


    The feeling of her falling woke her up.


    Ste sat up straight. She was sweating all over.


    rence was sitting next to her. "Did I wake you?"


    Ste shook her head, "No, I..."


    "Having a nightmare?"


    Ste didn’t speak, she was staring to the front.


    rence reached out a hand and pulled her into his arms, "I am here, don’t be afraid."


    When she calmed herself down, she asked, "Where did you go?"


    "When Lyndon died, you were there. There were some evidences they needed confirmation."


    "Why didn’t you call me..."


    rence stroke her hair, "It’s enough with me there."


    Ste wanted to say something else, but rence pulled up the nket over her, "It’s alright, go back


    to sleep. We can talk tomorrow."


    Ste drew herself back from his embrace and sniffed, "Why don’t you sleep outside tonight. I am sick.


    I don’t want to get you sick as well."


    "Who hadn’t had a cold before?"


    "But..."


    rence got close to her and kissed her on the lips, "Is that okay?"


    Ste was speechless.


    She said in a bad manner, "If you catch a cold this time, I won’t have the energy to take care of you."


    rence said, "Well, Alisa had been bored for some time. If we both get sick, we can call for her to


    come."


    Ste didn’t know what else to say.


    She got into her nket and closed her eyes, "Alright, sleep."
