With Phoebe Steward’s words came nothing but awkwardness.

Stella wanted to say something, but no words came out of her mouth.

But that could be for the better, if William saw how messed up Clarence’s private life was, he might start having second thoughts, and refrain from cooperating with Clarence.

That probably counted as a comeback, right?

Her wish was fulfilled.

Clarence’s gaze was darkened and he narrowed his eyes, not saying a thing.

Then, William looked towards Phoebe and said suddenly, “I’m sorry, who are you?”

Phoebe smiled and introduced herself, “My name is Phoebe Steward, pleased to make your acquaintance.”

William nodded lightly and said, “Ms. Steward, I see.”

Phoebe replied, “I will leave you all to it now. I have things to tend to for now.”

She then told Daniel, “Let’s go, Mr. Daniel.”

Daniel looked at Stella, nodded and left with Phoebe.

After Phoebe and Daniel were out of earshot, William said, “I assume that Ms. Steward is the daughter from the Steward Group?”

Clarence looked at him and said, “Do you know her?”

William smiled, “I don’t, but I’ve heard of her before.”

After they left the restaurant, Stella said goodbye to William, then turned around and stared at Clarence for quite a while.

Clarence matched her gaze, his mysterious expression showing no emotions.

He asked, “What are you trying to say?”

Stella licked her lips. Since Clarence started it, she might as well seize the chance.

“I’ve told you so, Mr. Conrad, don’t treat relationships haphazardly. Look at you now, getting ridiculed by your fiancé in public and unable to do anything about it.”

Clarence replied, “Who do you think I did that for?”
