There was a slight change in the man’s expression when he heard the question. He picked up the pen, trying to write down something on the paper, yet still didn’t write anything.

When Stella prepared to give up and leave, a cold voice sounded from behind, “Why are you here?”

Stella turned around and found that it was Adolph. There was a scar on his face, which seemed to be resulted from the car accident. The scar started from his left cheek and ended at his chin.

He looked more ferocious than in the past.

Stella said, “Let’s have a talk at the other place.”

When they walked out of the alley, they bumped into five children who were running towards them and one of them accidently knocked onto Stella.

The little boy wiggled his fingers. When seeing the ball of dusts on Stella’s cloth, he became so nervous, “I’m… I’m sorry…”

Stella chuckled and gently rubbed his head, “It doesn’t matter. Enjoy your time.”

The boy looked towards her timidly and then looked towards Adolph.

When seeing Adolph nodding his head at him, he smiled again and ran away.

Adolph shifted his gaze and said, “This play is messy and disorderly. Yet you come alone. Aren’t you afraid?”

Stella replied in a clam voice, “It’s less horrible than human beings.”

Adolph was silent.

They walked out of the alley and came to a lawn. Adolph asked, “Why do you come to find me?”

No matter it be the debts of Jeffrey or the matter related to Modesty, they all had been a past long time ago. So Stella wouldn’t pay a special to him simply because of the above-mentioned matters.

Stella looked towards him, “I want to know about Jeffrey’s whereabouts. And I guess you can find him.”

“Jeffrey?” Adolph knitted his brows, “Didn’t he die in the prison?”

Stella chuckled, “Yeah, maybe he wasn’t dead as a doornail and he comes back again.”

Adolph could roughly guess what Jeffrey would do after coming back.

To be Jeffrey’s daughter was so disgusting.
