Elaine had never been mocked in this way before. Anger surged in her heart. She said, “You are my uncle, too. How could you say that to me?”

“Did you ever take me as your uncle?”

“You...”

Stella couldn’t look on any longer. She pulled Elaine’s hand. “Calm down. I want to get some fresh air. Let’s go.”

She dragged Elaine away from the battlefield.

After they were gone, Caesar said slowly, “I’ve never imagined we three would encounter each other here in such a way.”

Clarence uttered indifferently, “Isn’t it what you’ve been hoping to see?”

Caesar smiled without answering, looking ahead.

Justin Conrad arrived.

His assistant pushed his wheelchair over and stopped in front of them.

Justin said, “Hi Clarence. Good morning, Mr. James.”

Then he looked over at Darnell next to them and asked, “Who is this gentleman?”

Caesar didn’t tell him Darnell’s identity. He replied, “He’s my cousin.”

With a friendly smile, Justin said, “Mr. James, you do have a family full of talents.”

As he spoke, he asked Clarence, “Has Stella come?”

“Yes, she has. She went out to get some fresh air.”

Justin said, “When I just arrived here, Mr. James told me one of the rings in the auction tonight was from Stella’s parents. I’ll ask the staff to take it out from the auction. You can give it to Stella.”

Clarence said, “No, thanks. I can buy it myself.”

“All right. I know you wanted to do something for her.”
