Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Learning that Emmett left because of the business of the company, Stella silently heaved a sigh of

relief.

She said, “Then I will not bother you. I…”

“Stella,” Emmett interrupted her in a gentle voice.

“What’s the matter?”

He curled his lips into a light smile, “Nothing. Have a rest early. Good night.”

He didn’t ask the question although he was so curious about it.

After ending the call, Stella put her head on the table again.

She didn’t know whether she should make it clear with Emmett or nor. It was just that Emmett had

never confessed his feelings to her and it would be very weird if she suddenly told him that she didn’t

love him.

Stella thought that she would be sleepless for the whole night and opened her drawing book.

But she unconsciously sketched Clarence’s contours on the paper.

When she realized this, the painting was almost finished.

She subconsciously wanted to tear off this picture, yet paused at a second thought.

Never mind.

She could keep this to remind herself not to make a wise choice.

Stella turned to the next page. She patted her face to sober up herself and then began to draw a new

picture.

At the same time…

In the Steward family…

In the study, a man reported to Charles, “Master Steward, we’ve investigated it and found that it was a

boy who offered the photos to the newspaper.”

Charles inexplicably knitted his brows, “Boy? What’s his information?”

“His name is Channing Radomil. He’s 19 years old and is a freshman of University A.”

“Did you find out how he got the photos?”

The man slightly nodded his head, “Channing has a sister and her name is Stella Radomil.”

Charles abruptly stood up, “What?”

“I’ve verified it. Stella is Clarence’s ex-wife.”

Charles, who used to be elegant, failed to maintain his composure any longer, “Are you sure?”

“I’m sure. I’ve confirmed it with the employees of that newspaper office. It was Channing who gave

them the photos and asked them to publish a notice. Moreover, having not found the man through

publishing notice on the newspapers, he posted the photos to other platforms. But we’ve intercepted all

of them.”

Charles gave an order after a short while, “Go find out Stella and Channing’s background right away. I

want to know all the details ever since their births. One more thing…”

Right at this moment, there was a string of knockings on the door.

Phoebe pushed open the door, “Day, why do you call me here?”

Charles sat back on the chair and waved his hand to gesture his subordinate, “You can leave now.”

“Okay.”

After the man’s leaving, Phoebe closed the door, walked into the study, and then sat opposite to

Charles, “Dad, I heard your mention ‘background’ when I was outside. Is there any problem?”

Charles replied calmly, “There’re some problems in the company. It’s not a big deal. I’ve asked my

subordinate to deal with it.”

Phoebe nodded her head.

Charles paused. After several seconds, she continued, “I heard that you’re so close to a foreigner

recently. Is that true?”

“Rigorously he’s not a foreigner. He’s a half Chinese.”

After her birthday party, Daniel would date her from time to time.

Phoebe didn’t understand it. If this happened in the past, she would refuse it without a second thought.

But ever since her engagement with Clarence was cancelled, some people were waiting to have a

good laugh at her even though they didn’t say it openly.

But now, Daniel, a person who was renewed internationally, was pursuing her. Naturally she would not

refuse it.

Charles said, “Have you investigated his background.”

“Yep. It’s very normal. He came to City N to have a concert and many of my friends know about him.”

“Phoebe,” Charles said, “I won’t oppose it if you want to have a boyfriend. But you should clear that

your husband-to-be cannot be a musician.”

“I know it.”

“I’m also responsible for the engagement with the Conrad family. I knew deep down about Clarence’s

personality, but I still allowed you to marry him.”

Phoebe shook her head, “Dad, please don’t say this. It was me who insisted on marry him because

Clarence is the best choice for me in every aspects.”

Charles heaved a long sigh and asked inadvertently, “By the way, how’s Clarence’s ex-wife.”

Phoebe didn’t expect that her dad would suddenly ask this and was a bit stunned. She then replied,

“She established a studio with her friend and is quite close to Clarence recently. I saw them having

dinner together on the date of my birthday party.”

Charles said in a deep voice, “I’ve expected it. It’s a good thing that you didn’t marry him.”

Phoebe didn’t reply.

Charles continued, “I remember that you said Clarence’s ex-wife was sold to Twilight Club before. Is

her family so in short of money?”

“I didn’t probe into it. Maybe.”

“Does she have any family?”

“She has a younger brother. As for others, I’m not clear of it.” Phoebe then asked, “Dad, why did you

suddenly ask this?”

Charles replied, “Nothing. It’s just that I’m curious about her since she is so important to Clarence.”

Phoebe’s face turned cold when she heard this.

“Yep. I underestimated her schemes before, otherwise, it won’t be like this now.”

Charles said, “Phoebe, Clarence was unfair to you on this matter. If you feel aggrieved, you can vent

your anger. It doesn’t matter.”

“Dad, do you mean…”

“Dad will support you no matter what you want to do. I believe that the Conrad family will not have any

objection to it.”

“Thank you, dad.”

Charles stood up. When he was about to walk out of the study, he suddenly recalled something. He

turned around and asked, “Phoebe, is the designer who designed the necklace for you before

Clarence’s ex-wife?”

Phoebe was stunned. After a long while, she curled her lips into a smile, “Dad, why do you ask…”

“It’s just a casual question. Have a rest.”

Phoebe’s reaction had fully answered it.

After coming back to his bedroom, Charles locked the door, walked to the wardrobe and opened a

drawer. He took a box out from it.

There were several yellowed documents in the box and below them was a pocket watch that was

deformed by fire.

He took out the watch and stared at it for a long time.

At the next moment, his phone rang.

Charles picked up his phone. His subordinate’s voice sounded from the other end of the phone,

“Master Steward, I found out that Stella Radomil and her brother Channing had a father who was a

gambler. He often came to the underground gambling houses, big or small. When he ran out of money,

he would resort to usury. Three years ago, he sold Stella to the Twilight Club.”

“What about their mother?”

“We didn’t get too much information about this. It seems like that their mother died when giving birth to

Channing.”

Charles asked, “What’s her name?”
