As it snowed the whole night, the whole holiday village was shrouded in mist in the next morning.

Emmett supported Stella to get on the car. Stella turned around and took a glance.

She could vaguely saw the villa in the mountain afar.

Emmett looked over following her lines of sights and pressed his lips, “Stella, let’s go.”

Stella withdrew her lines of sights, gently nodded her head and got on the car.

When they left, Nathan knocked at Clarence’s door and reported, “Mr. Conrad, Mr. Carter has left with Mrs. Conrad.”

Clarence replied with a nasal sound. He stood up and said, “Let’s go.”

Nathan followed behind him and continued, “Mr. Conrad, I got a piece of news just now. The Perez family is arranging Miss Annie to leave the country. She will probably go abroad in these two days. Maybe the Steward family has assisted them. But at present I’m not clear of the detailed route.”

Clarence curled his thin lips into a smile, “Looks like the show they prepare have a sequel.”

“Mr. Conrad, do you mean…”

“The Perez family is the biggest backer for Joanna now. Do you think that she will offend the family for the sake of Annie?”

The farce at the door of the Conrad family was just a show for Clarence.

It was Joanna who asked for other people’s help that Annie could leave the country through the arrangement of the Steward family.

Nathan immediately figured it out, “I’ve ordered them to follow Miss Annie once she steps out of the Perez family.”

Clarence paused and then replied, “I asked you to investigate Charles Steward before. Do you have any news?”

“Mr. Steward’s behavior is so weird recently. He has been investigating Stella’s father.”

Clarence paused and knitted his brows, “Jeffrey Radomil?”

“yep.” Nathan added, “By the way, Mr. Conrad, when I investigated Charles, I found that his subordinate transferred a large sum of money to a private detective. And the last one who hired this private detective was Stella’s younger brother. And he went to several newspaper offices to publish a notice attached with an old photo in an attempt to find a person.”
