Chapter 876


    Ste just could not fall asleep.


    Maybe it was due to the strange environment that she couldn’t help thinking about the reasons why


    Channing acted so brutally. Though she had had a cup of hot milk, she just kept getting more and more


    agitated.


    Then she chose to got up and stroll in the room, trying to calm herself down.


    As she was taking a deep breathe, she heard the door opened.

    It was rence. Seeing what she was doing, he asked, “Are you hungry?”


    Ste shook her head, “No, I am not hungry. I just couldn’t fall asleep.”


    rence loosened his tie with one hand and threw it onto the sofa before he walked over to her and


    patted her head softly, “Just because I’m not with you?”


    Ste smiled and pushed him gently, “Well, you should take a shower first. Have you had dinner yet? I


    will make something for you.”


    “No, you don’t have to. I will take a shower first.” rence turned away and took the lid of a small box


    on the bedside table. In the box there was a wood cube and rence dripped one or two drops of oil


    which was used to soothe the nerves.


    A faint fragrance of wood was sent over immediately, conveying a sense of coolness and calmness.


    And it was quitefortable to smell.


    Ste took out some clothes from the wardrobe. rence took those clothes and gave her a gentle


    kiss before she said slowly, “You don’t have to wait for me. You should go to bed early.”


    Ste nodded, “I know.”


    Seeing rence headed into the bathroom, Ste lied back on the bed. Maybe the oil worked. She


    finally felt a little sleepy.


    She yawned and closed her eyes slowly.


    After a while, she found herself in a warm embrace.


    Ste was still conscious right now. She mumbled. “ine said you had gone out together with Archer


    …”


    With Ste in arms, rence halted for a second before he said, “I led him to meet someone.”


    Ste nodded. She didn’t ask who the one was. She remained silent for a while before she said, “My


    father called me this evening. He has been back and has met Channing. But he didn’t tell me what he


    said to Channing.”


    rence said, “You don’t have to worry. He knows what he is doing.”


    Ste nodded in his arms, “I hope this time William and Channing can get closer.”


    rence patted her back and said, “They will. Don’t bother.”


    The sound of Ste’s breath got more and more stable. After a while, she fell asleep.


    …


    In the Conrads'' Mansion.


    Sitting in Dempsey Conrad’s room, Justin stared at the empty bed. Seemingly he was wonder


    something.


    Harris got closer to him and said, “Mr. Conrad, I will take Mr. Conrad back soon.”


    Justin got back from his wondering and said opened his mouth slowly, “You don’t have to. They have


    noticed you when you got to the hospital.


    Harris gritted his teeth, “It’s my fault. I …”


    In the morning when Dempsey Conrad was taken by rence’s men, Harris was afraid that their action


    would put Justin in a disadvantaged position. And he had no idea about the situation of Chassell. To


    ensure Justin’s safety, he chose to act immediately on his own.


    Though he had prepared well, he was a bitte. Their men hade.


    If it were not the woman, Chassell must have been dead now!


    Justin said, “Did you show up before them?”


    “The woman was the only one who noticed me. I will have her killed.”


    Justin maintained a poker face, “Let Jon do it. The woman has seen you. If you missed the target


    again, you won’t be back.”


    Harris lowered his head without a word.


    Justin drove his wheelchair and headed outside, “Now not even a fly would get in Chassell’s room.


    Don’t waste more time on him. We should try another way around.”


    Harris ran over to help her, “You mean … Ste Radomil?”


    “Two workers have been dead in the new studio. But no information on such a piece of sensational


    news is avable online. We can work on it and I want you to be responsible for that.”


    “But rence still got Master Conrad in hand. And news reports on the New Coast Project have


    already rendered us in a disadvantaged position. I’m afraid …”


    “He will die soon. He is of no use to rence even if he was in his hand,” Justin smiled, “And I’m not


    the man who cares most about the project.”


    The partners were the ones who were most worried.


    Justin continued, “Although we haven’t reached our goal, what we have done is enough to have them


    anxious.”


    After all the money invested could not be retrieved.


    “But apart from Steward Group, rence also owns another two multinationalpanies, Complex


    and Southwest. If Steward Group is involved in the case and the group ends up bankrupt, the other two


    he owns can still run smoothly.”


    Justin smiled faintly, “He won’t let Steward Group go bankrupt in his hands. Don’t you forget that the


    twopanies have had financial interactions with Steward Group.”


    He’s right. One had invested in Steward Group and the other been in strategic cooperation with


    Steward Group.


    If Steward Group was involved in the New Coast Project, the other twopanies would definitely fail


    to remain intact.


    Should in rence’s mind Steward Group was something that could be discarded easily, it was hard


    for Justin to fight against him.


    But in fact, Steward Group really meant a lot to rence.


    It was because rence had his own thoughts and concerns that Justin could have all those people


    involved dead with him together through the New Coast Project.


    After Harris had told him what he had to do on the phone, Jon remained for a few seconds before he


    asked, “So in your mind, the sudden death of a super star in her home in midnight is something that


    can be easily neglected by the general public?”


    Harris said, “She have many reasons tomit suicide. She was harassed by Chassell. She suffered


    cyber-violence. Channing was arrested for her. She can’t forgive herself andmits suicide. It’s


    simple, isn’t it?”


    “Do you think someone as smart as rence Conrad would fail to realize what really happened?”


    “It’s none of your business. You just take care of what I told you.”


    After that, Harris hung up the phone.


    Christian Atwood was standing beside him. He frowned and said, “As a secretary, he is too arrogant.


    Even Justin won’t dare to speak to you like that.”


    Jon sneered, “Indeed, Justin won’t talk to me like that. He is not a man of that kind. But if you think he


    respects me, you are wrong. For him, I am nothing but a gun which would be abandoned anytime.”


    “So… we don’t have to cooperate with them, right?”


    Jon was originally a man collecting and selling information and intelligence. He used to take the money


    and leave quickly regardless of what he had done to other people.


    But since his cooperation with Justin began, he got involved more and more deeply.


    Justin got the evidence which could prove what he had done those years. The cruel man wouldn’t let


    him go readily.


    Plus, even someone as cruel and cunning as Amanda ended up killed by him immediately.


    Now even if Justin would let him go, rence wouldn’t forgive him.


    It’s a dead end anyway.


    But if Justin won in the end, he could get what he wanted. That’s why he finally decided to fight for his


    own survival.
