Chapter 724


    When she got home, Ste closed the door, moved her neck, and stretched.


    rence hugged her from behind, kissed her ear gently, and whispered, "Are you tired?"


    "I’m fine." Ste tilted her head to look at him, "How are things going with Daniel?"


    rence said, "You were right in your guess. He was taken away."


    "That woman ..."


    "I''ve asked Nathan to check with William about her identity. We''ll have the results by tomorrow at the


    latest."


    "Daniel shouldn''t be in danger, should he?"


    rence said, "No. If the woman wanted to kill him, she wouldn''t have just taken him away."


    Ste thought about it and thought it made sense. It looked like it should be some kind of personal


    vendetta.


    She pushed rence''s hand away, "I''ll go and tell Sherry then."


    Ste had just taken a step when rence pulled her back, "We''re not sure exactly what that woman''s


    rtionship with Daniel is yet. There''s no point in you telling Sherry."


    Ste silenced. That was right.


    rence said, "Well, aren''t you tired? Go take a shower and go to bed."


    Ste suddenly remembered something and looked over at him, "By the way, what did you call Chan


    out for today?"


    "I was just having a casual chat with him."


    "A casual chat? About what?"


    rence leaned closer to her and his thin lips curled, "You want to know?"


    Ste was speechless.


    Every time he gave that look, nothing good could happen.


    Ste said, "I suddenly lost the interest."


    "But I want to talk."


    Ste, who had always been no match for him in terms of shamelessness, was taken to the bedroom to


    take a shower and forced to listen to what rence had said to Channing.


    That video was sent over by Channing this afternoon.


    Although Ste didn''t know exactly how he had gotten it, it must not have been that easy to get the


    crucial evidence in such a short time.


    Before, she had always thought that Channing had a crush on Winnie.


    But it was only recently that she realized that he seemed to really like Winnie.


    He would give anything for her.


    Ste and Channing had grown up together and she knew her little brother well. He would hardly ever


    have anything in particr that he liked, but if it was what he wanted, he would never change it.


    As if sensing herck of concentration, rence nibbled down on her shoulder and intensified his


    movements.


    Ste finally retracted her thoughts. Her nails were embedded in his back and she could barely catch


    her breath.


    After an unknown amount of time, the room fell silent.


    Stey in rence''s arms and asked softly, "Even though you didn''t sign the contract and Winnie


    isn''t really in breach of contract, what will happen after she offers to terminate her contract with the


    Conrad Group at this time? I think that the Conrad Group might target her ..."


    rence kissed her brow, "Don''t think too much about it. Winnie hasmercial value. As long as she


    doesn''t have any problems of her own, no one can do anything to her."


    Ste was silent for a moment before she added, "Justin would have been able to guess that the


    reason Winnie offered to terminate her contract would probably have something to do with you."


    "So what if he can guess it? He''s in his position to do his job. What''s more, he wants Winnie out of the


    Conrad Group more than I do."


    Ste was surprised, "Why?"


    rence didn''t answer and just closed his eyes, "Go to sleep."


    Without Winnie, the Conrad Group would be able to promote new artists more legitimately.


    Winnie was just the beginning.


    After that, more and more of the old staff would leave the Conrad Group.


    Seeing that he didn''t want to talk about it, Ste didn''t ask any further questions and slowly closed her


    eyes.


    ...


    Sherry had just gotten out of the shower when she received a message from her mother.


    Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    Sherry said, "Mom, what''s wrong?"


    Mrs. Perry sounded angry, "Do you still know that I am your mother? How long has it been since you


    called me?"


    Sherry sat down on the sofa andughed, "I''ve been busy with worktely. What are you calling me


    for?"


    "What''s wrong with Brandon that makes you look down on him?"


    Sherry was a little confused by herment, "Which Brandon? How did I look down on him? I know


    what I am and what I don''t have. Whom can I look down on?"


    Mrs. Perry said, "Just the guy I introduced you tost time. Brandon, Brandon Chang! He came back


    today. I happened to see him so I talked to him. I think he''s pretty good and better than that Liam Keith.


    Wait, you aren''t still obsessed with that bastard, right?"


    "Mum! Stop your wild guess, okay? I don''t look down on Brandon. I just ..."


    When she first found out she was pregnant, she directly sent a message to Brandon, saying that they


    weren''t quite right for each other and that they didn''t need to contact each other in the future. When did


    she ever say something to despise him?


    "Fine, I heard you. Don''t make any excuses. You two just have too little contact. I told him that boys


    should take the initiative. And you, you should make some moves too. Don''t you know how old you


    are? My ssmate''s grandson is in kindergarten! But you don''t even have someone to get married with


    you!"


    Sherry''s head hurt as she listened, and after talking to her for a few more minutes, she hung up the


    phone.


    She put the phone down and looked at the messages that kept popping up on the screen.


    They were all greetings from the people in the dating apps she had downloaded this evening.


    Sherry wasn''t even interested in reading them, and her head hurt even more when she saw the


    messages. She simply uninstalled all the apps again.


    She sat down on the sofa, looked around and took a pillow, and put it on herp.


    When she looked down, she realized that the pillow was bought when she had gone to the


    supermarket with Daniel earlier.


    Sherry reflexively threw the pillow on the floor.


    She stood up and realized that many of the things in the house had been bought by Daniel, even the


    cutlery in the kitchen.


    All of it had been bought when he was there to cook for her.


    Sherry took out the cardboard box used when moving in and threw everything rted to Daniel inside.


    But it was too much and too heavy for her to carry, so she dragged it out little by little.


    Sherry had just dragged it out the door and was about to press the button for the lift when the door next


    to her was opened.


    ine poked her head out, "Sherry, what are you doing?"


    Sherry said, "Throwing out the trash."


    ine looked at therge box, "So much? Let me help you."


    Together, the two got the cardboard box downstairs. While sorting them, ine looked at the cute dolls


    and pillows and asked, "Sherry, these are still new. Should we throw them away too?"


    Sherry nodded casually, and seeing that ine liked them, she said, "If you like them, just take them


    back."


    ine just loved these cute plush dolls and immediately hugged a few in her arms, then said happily,


    "Thanks, Sherry!"
