Chapter 900


    In the evening, Ste stood in front of the French window and looked at the heavy rainy night outside.


    She had lost in thought, and no one knew what she was thinking.


    After standing there for a long time, someone suddenly put on a set of clothes behind her.


    Ste turned around and looked at the man in front of him. She was stunned and asked, "When did you


    come back?"


    rence held her shoulder with both hands. "It''s been a while. Aren''t you tired?"


    It was okay if he didn''t say anything. When he said it, Ste felt a little sore in her waist and legs.


    rence put his arms around her shoulders and took her to the sofa to sit down.


    There were hot dishes on the tea table.


    rence picked up the bowl of soup, scooped up a spoonful of soup, blew it, and then put it beside her


    mouth. "I heard from Alisa that you didn''t eat much at night. What happened?"


    Ste shook her head and drank the soup before saying, "I just had no appetite..."


    After a pause, she was afraid that rence would think too much, so she quickly added, "I should have


    eaten too much at noon. I really eat a lot these days."


    rence fed her spoon after spoon. When she finished the soup in the bowl, he asked, "Had Channing


    gone?"


    Ste nodded gently. She took the empty bowl from rence and ced it on the tea table. " William


    left with him. I hope they can take care of each other and apany each other when they reach


    London."


    "Rx, they will."


    When rence was about to get the bowl and chopsticks, his hand was held suddenly.


    It''s Ste. "By the way, I have something to tell you."


    "What?"


    Ste frowned and said, "I... went to Adolph''s underground casino today and saw Modesty Parker. Do


    you still remember? The girl that..."


    Ste didn''t know how to describe it for a while. She thought for a moment and said, "It was that


    designer funded by you to study in Paris."


    rence was a bit speechless.


    He said seriously, "My memory is not that bad. I know her."


    In the end, he added, "Didn''t I say it''s over?"


    Ste curled her lips. "I didn''t want to get even with you because of this. I was just afraid that you


    wouldn''t remember her. Look, hadn''t you remembered immediately?"


    rence repeated, "Even if you don''t say that, I know."


    Ste was about to answer, but she found it funny. Then she stopped talking and said, "It doesn''t


    matter. I want to say that they don''t just want to use Adolph to take the me. ording to Modesty,


    they want to make use of the fact that Adolph once helped me and turn me into the one who ordered


    him to kill Arthur Bat, but I think it''s strange..."


    rence pursed his thin lips and put the bowl and chopsticks in Ste''s hands. "Don''t think about it.


    Let''s talk about it after dinner."


    "But..."


    He said deeply, "It''s cold."


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Ste pouted and had to lower her head to eat.


    However, she still ate a little at night. She had just drunk another bowl of soup and only ate a little


    before she couldn''t eat anymore.


    Seeing that her stomach was full, rence took the bowl from her.


    Ste didn''t expect him to eat the rest of her food so directly. She quickly said, "Hey, let me cook


    noodles for you..."


    rence held her wrist and said, "No, sit still."


    He quickly finished the rest of the food and got up with a tray. "I''ll put it downstairs. You can sleep first."


    She didn''t know if it was her illusion, but she felt that he didn''t want to talk to her about the topic just


    now.


    But it was true that rence was already very tired every day. Now there were more things like Adolph


    and Modesty, and even the iron-made people could not bear it.


    Ste smiled at him. "Sure."


    At downstairs.


    rence put the tray into the sink in the kitchen, turned around, and just took a few steps when


    Archer''s voice came from behind. "Do you have time? Let''s talk?"


    rence turned around, and stayed silent.


    Sitting on the sofa, Archer crossed his legs and said to him. "There are two things, one bad news, and


    another worse news."


    rence crossed his legs and stared at him without saying a word.


    Archer coughed. He didn''t dare to hide, so it was better not to keep him guessing.


    He continued, "Your father... Dempsey Conrad''s health is getting worse day by day. He can''t survive


    this winter. If time flies fast, he would only ten days or half a month left."


    rence was not surprised, and his expression did not change at all. He said lightly, "The other thing?"


    "I tested the medicine bottle that Dempsey brought out. The residue of the medicine contained in it is


    indeed the enhanced version of the nutrition needles that Riverside City once destroyed. Moreover, it


    was also detected in the medicine bottle... a new toxin."


    rence''s eyes instantly turned cold. "What?"


    Archer said, "I''ve sent them back to theb for the specific test, and asked them to conduct a thorough


    test on the children. But don''t worry, we didn''t find anything unusual in his body just from our previous


    inspection and treatment. Maybe the new toxin was identally applied to the bottle in other ces.


    Everything has to wait for the test results in theb."


    rence''s jaw dropped slightly and he felt a chill all over his body.


    "So, is this thest action of Justin Conrad?"


    He used all the vicious methods on the children who were just several months old.


    Archer lowered his voice and said, "I think it''s better not to let Ste do this. We all know how difficult it


    is for her to get pregnant, and... all her hopes and persistence came from me telling her that the blood


    of the baby in her belly, which has not been born yet, can..."


    rence interrupted him. "If it''s a new toxin, do you have any solution?"


    "Well... it''s hard to say. We have to know exactly what the ingredients are. The dosage of all these


    things we''ve checked is very light, but I''m sure that it won''t endanger our lives. I don''t know what the


    consequences will be. Some toxins do have asting period."


    Archer sighed and said, "Fortunately, we found it earlier. Otherwise, when the toxin began to take


    effect, all our efforts would be in vain. Your dad still yed a little role."


    rence pursed his lips and frowned. After a while, he said, "The poison must have been given to him


    by Amanda. They met in Canada. I''ll ask someone to go there. Some clues may have left."


    Archer nodded. When he got up, he asked, "Dempsey won''t live long. Are you sure you don''t want to


    see him for thest time? Every time I go over, he asks you. He looks like a dying old man. He looks


    very pitiful."


    rence raised his eyes and looked at him coldly. "The reason why you feel that he is pitiful is that


    what he has done does no harm to you."


    After, he got up and went upstairs.


    Archer smacked his lips. He really shouldn''t have asked this.


    However, as a doctor, he hadpleted his mission and conveyed Dempsey''s thoughts to his


    son.
