In the Conrad Group…

Nathan quickly approached Clarence after Clarence got out of the meeting room, “Mr. Conrad, something happened.”

Clarence stopped and became nervous, “Stella?”

“Yes, and no.”

Clarence looked at Nathan expressionless, “Next time, complete your sentence first.”

Nathan continued, “Mrs. Conrad went back to Jeffrey’s house with Channing. Then, they found out…”

Clarence tried to be patient, “Are you going to finish your sentence or not?”

Nathan didn’t mean to act in such a manner. He had been working with Clarence for over thirty years, and he had seen so much, but what happened in Jeffrey’s house was so uncommon. It was overwhelming, and it could send a chill down Nathan’s spine.

Nathan said softly, “Mr. Conrad, Mrs. Conrad’s mother was found.”

“Where did they found her?”

“In…Jeffrey’s house.”

Clarence was shocked. He tilted his head and asked, “Are you sure?”

Nathan nodded, “The news came from them. I think Daniel was also there. The news is almost certain.”

Clarence paused and narrowed his eyes. He changed direction and said coldly, “Postpone all my schedule. I have some other thing to attend to.”

Nathan followed behind, “Sure.”

Then, Nathan quickly took his phone out and did as Clarence asked.

After Clarence got into the car, he asked, “So, how are they?”

“Mr. Conrad, are you asking about William or Mrs. Conrad?”

“Both.”
