Stella also doubted this question before, but if she just simply gave up without trying, she would feel more reluctant. Also, she would feel sorry for Chan.

After a while, she answered, “Even if he’s not willing to tell me, I can get some information from him. Besides, only when I continue staying in the Stewards’ Mansion will I know what Charles Steward’s next plan will be.”

Clarence stared at her in silence, slightly pressing his thin lips.

Stella looking into his eyes without any intention to retreat.

She continued, “I’ll always keep in touch with you. If I felt anything dangerous, I wouldn’t continue staying there any longer. I’ll leave there immediately. Does it work?”

A moment later, Clarence stood up, “Let’s go.”

Seeing that, Stella heaved a sigh silently.

She felt that her effort was in vain after negotiating with him for so long.

Before she spoke, Clarence said, “Remember what you’ve promised me. Don’t forget... you still have a younger brother to raise.”

Stella said, “Chan can make money himself. He doesn’t need me...”

Before she finished her words, Clarence cast her a cold glance. She immediately shushed.

On the way driving to the Stewards’ Mansion, Clarence didn’t speak at all. He remained expressionless, and Stella couldn’t tell his emotion at all.

Stella asked tentatively, “Are you mad?”

“Ehn.”

Stella was silent.

He admitted it way too directly.

She muttered, “Don’t you always deny that you are not so narrow-minded as I am?”

Clarence asked, “Have you admitted that you are narrow-minded?”

She thought for a moment and answered, “I’m narrow-minded so you are the only one in my mind.”

Clarence didn’t utter a word.
