Chapter 866
This night, apart from Ste, no one almost stayed up the whole night.
At half-past seven in the morning, the Conrad Group finally posted a statement based on the various
questions throughout the Inte.

The statement made an apology to the partnerpanies and the public. And it dered that these
loopholes resulted from negligence that existed in the early stage of the project. The Group will rectify
the situation and give everyone an exnation as soon as possible.
Everyone grasped the key point of this statement.
"The project was in its early stage."
As it''s known, this project was founded by rence.
The statement simply put all the me on rence, and they had nothing to do with the problems. And
the Conrad Group was trying to fix it.
In other words, the Conrad Group was tidying up rence''s mess.
Although it was an early morning, the online discussion of this matter had gone viral. Several media
sites quickly uploaded a report, which was soon reposted onto those major social websites.
Justin sat in the car, witnessing the number ofments skyrocketing up in a few minutes on the
phone. His brows creased into a smile.
His assistant''s voice came from the front, "Mr. Conrad, the hospital is heavily guarded these days. They
even searched the doctors going in and out. We can''t do anything."
Justin remainedposure, busy browsing one new article after another. He lightly said, "Isn''t he still
in the intensive care unit? We still have time."
Justin continued as he put away the phone. "After today''s news, do you think rence still cares about
him?"
The assistant gave a simple nod. "I will take care of it as soon as possible."
Justin made a short reply and looked out the window. "When will we get there?"
"Ten minutes," The assistant replied to him, "Our men are guarding thending field, but rence
hasn''t shown up yet."
Justin gave a dryugh. He put the phone against his jaw and said pitifully. "Honestly, I didn''t expect it
to happen so fast. Well, I will miss the fake brotherhood between us."
The assistant raised his voice several notches. "He owed you for this. Now it''s time to pay you back. I
believe that the olddy would be very pleased to see this if she were here."
Justin did not say anything, but a wide smile faded away on his face, reced by the icy stare.
Soon, the car stopped outside thending field.
rence''s car arrived almost at the same time as they did.
It was Seven fifty-five.
The assistant wheeled Justin out of the car. He sat in a wheelchair, watching rence supporting
Ste, and spoke with a smile, "rence, Ste, what a small world."
rence slowly turned around, and when he saw Justin, he did not look surprised.
Ste followed rence out of the car, but she wore a mask, a thick knitted cap, and a scarf wrapping
her neck. Other than a pair of eyes, Ste was fully geared. It was almost impossible to recognize her.
rence stood in front of her.
Justin smiled slightly, "I heard that you were nning to send Ste away from City N. I''m afraid that I
won''t see her again, so I especiallye to see her off."
There wasn''t any emotion in rence''s eyes. "Why won''t we meet each other? Oh, only if you''re
dead."
The assistant behind Justin frowned upon rence and wanted to move forward, but Justin waved him
to back off.
Justin said, "Well, you might be right. You know, I''m getting worse. Maybe I will sleep and never wake
up one day."
rence said lightly, "So, anything else?"
Justin paused and nced at Ste behind him. He suddenly said, "Well, just out of curiosity, what
happened to Ste?"
"Well, you know, she is a fragile pregnant woman now."
A look of inward illumination came into Justin''s eyes, and he said, "Oh, that''s why I saw Winnie in the
trending topic a few days ago."
rence said, "You mind if I take Ste to go?"
"rence," Justin called him, "I saw the news that Ste''s brother had trouble. Has it been done? Do
you need my help?"
rence said in a frosty tone, "We''re fine."
He wanted to leave with Ste as soon as possible.
Justin stopped him, "How about this? I know you want to send Ste to a quiet ce. I know a ce in
the City N''s suburb. It''s a chill and rxing hot spring resort. Why not send her there?"
rence repeated in a cold voice, "We''re fine."
Justin furrowed his brows helplessly, "rence, I do not mean to stop you, but … you might see the
news about the Conrad Groupst night. I just took over the New Coast project, so I get absolutely
nowhere looking into it. And now I have to face such a big bomb. I wonder if you cane back to help
me? Maybe we can take care of these problems together?"
rence said, "About the New Coast project, I already asked Nathan to give you all the information
before I left. As for the rest, I can''t do anything about it."
Before Justin continued, rence added, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you. I''m used to saving copies for
almost every project. If you want to check on the problems, I can have someone deliver the copy to
verify with you one by one. What do you think?"
The smile on Justin''s face froze, his hands sped together, and he fell into silence.
The sunrise of early winter waster than the summer. The day was slightly breaking at eight o''clock.
The ferocious winds were roaring past thending field. It was deadly quiet that only the rustling sound
of the leaves in the breeze could be heard.
rence gave Justin a nk stare. "I thought we were square if I gave you the Conrad Group. But
now, it seems you want more than this."
Justin kept a smile on his face. "I''m a cripple. What am I going to do with the Conrad Group?"
"So, what do you want? My life?"
Justin heaved a sigh and said, "rence, we shouldn''t have talked like this."
rence gave a bitter smile, "Then what should I say? Should I thank you for what you''ve done?"
"I helped you find the truth you''ve been looking for and even found your family. Isn''t that good?"
rence''s eyes red as he walked towards Justin. He raised his voice. "You could have just told me
this …"
rence walked up to, grabbed his cor, and red at him. He ripped off Justin''s hypocrisy by his
words. "You should not y dirty and put it on a child who is only a few months old."
