Upon hearing the complaint from the other end of the line, Stella suddenly felt as if she was a truly evil woman.

She muttered, “You will come to be when you want to see me. If you don’t come here, it means you are busy, doesn’t it? Why should I waste my effort to look for you?”

After a pause, Clarence asked, “Have you read the recent news?”

“Yes, I have.”

“I’m dealing with the matter of Steward family, a bit busy recently.”

Stella said, “I see.”

Clarence said, “If you miss me indeed, come to see me in Conrad Group.”

“Thanks for your invitation. I never thought of that.”

On the other end of the line, Clarence snorted, “I’ve got to go.” He hung up.

Stella put down the phone. She checked the time and found it was eleven o’clock. The wretched man was still in Conrad Group right now.

She lay on the bed, tossing about, unable to fall asleep.

After around half an hour, she suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up. Then she took a coat from the closet and walked out of her apartment.

The streets were empty at night, but the street lamps were shining.

Soon, her taxi was pulled over at the entrance of Conrad Group’s building.

Stella got off. Standing at the entrance, she suddenly sobered up under the cold wind.

She had been somewhat reckless to come over here so suddenly.

She walked to the roadside, pulled out her cell phone to call a cab, but her finger didn’t tab the confirm button.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Stella put her phone back into the pocket of her coat. She turned around and walked into the building.
