In the next evening, Daniel handed the invitation letter to the bidding to Stella.

Sitting in her bedroom, Stella put the invitation letter beside the pocket watch and slightly pressed her lips together.

She would like to call it a commercial alliance of the Steward Group than viewing it as a bidding. Probably the Steward family wanted to consolidate its status through this bidding. It was like that the Conrad family tried to make use of the Jason family to build its interpersonal connections before. Therefore, those invited to the bidding must be some big wits.

If she showed up in the bidding, Charles and Phoebe would definitely be unprepared to it.

However, this approach was too risky and Stella was still in a dilemma about whether to go or not.

After a long while, she took out her phone and made a phone call to Clarence.

His low and husky voice sounded from the other end of the phone soon, “Oh, we just separated. Do you miss me now?”

Stella, “…”

Before she could say something, Clarence continued, “I told you to move out of the house and live with me. Then it won’t be some troublesome.”

Stella replied after a long while, “Mr. Conrad, since you’ve gone to bed, let’s stop here.”

“I’ve woke up. Spill the beans. What’s the matter?”

Stella stammered, “I…”

She was suddenly lost for words.

Noticing her hesitation, Clarence said, “Don’t say it now. I will come to find you.”

“Er… It’s unnece…”

Before Stella could finish her words, she heard the busy tone in her phone.

Why was that wretched man so rash?

After ending the call, Stella came to the balcony for some fresh air. She was so fretful before, but now she magically calmed down.

Half an hour later, she received a call from Clarence. He said concisely, “Go downstairs.”

Stella rubbed her nose and then ran out of the room.

When she walked out of the lift, she saw Clarence walking towards her.
