Amanda turned her head and took a glance. After making sure that Maxwell hadn't noticed them, she
pulled Logan away.
She then sat on a bench. Logan bought two drinks and sat next to her, "Shall we go to the movie
later?"
Amanda took the drink and shook her head, "I can only stay with you for ten minutes at most, and then
I will have to go back."
Logan frowned, seeming to be a little dissatisfied, “Why are you in such a hurry?"
“I have no choice.” Amada replied, “Or maybe we can go to see a movie tonight. I may go out at that
time.”
Logan said, “You can go out frequently before, right? What happened recently?”
Amada took a sip of the drink and slowly said, "Ms. Anderson went to the other city, and I am now
taking care of the child alone, so I can't leave him. But she will be back this afternoon.”
"Ms. Anderson?" Logan asked seeming to be pondering something. "Is she also employed to take care
of the baby?"
Amanda moved her lips when she heard the words, but she was suddenly lost for words and said
vaguely, “Nope. She’s…”
She paused and then continued, “All in all, I will be free when Ms. Anderson comes back.”
Logan didn’t probe into it again as he was afraid that it would cause her suspicion if he kept asking this.
He smiled and took out his phone, “Which movie would you like to watch? I will book the tickets in
advance.”
Amanda leaned forwards and selected the last one on the page, “This one. But you’d better book it
later. We can talk about this when Ms. Anderson comes back.”
“Okay.”
They sat there for several minutes. Amanda took a glance at her watch and hurriedly stood up, “I have
to go.”
She looked around yet didn’t see a trash can.
Logan reached out thoughtfully, “Give it to me. I will throw it later.”
Amanda let out a bright smile, lowered her head and landed a kiss on his cheek, “Then I will leave first.
See you tonight.”
“See you tonight.”
Where Amanda disappeared in his vision, the smile on Logan’s face gradually disappeared. He
clenched the empty drink bottle with his eyes full of schemes.
If his guess was right, the ‘Ms. Anderson’ that Amanda mentioned just now was Clarence’s biological
mother.
But the outsiders had thought that his mother had died. He didn’t expect that she was still alive.
Clarence asked his biological mother to take care of that baby. It seemed like his guess was right.
Logan seemed to think of something. He put down the two drink bottles, stood up and walked towards
the direction that Amanda left just now.
When he got closed, he hid himself behind a tree. His eyes became more unfathomable when he
stared at the man beside Amanda. He then took out his phone and took several photos.
Maxwell seemed to sense something and quickly turned around.
Logan quickly withdrew his lines of sights and hid behind a tree.
Amanda looked towards Maxwell, “What’s wrong?”
Having not found any weird point, Maxwell replied in a calm voice, “Nothing. We have been out for a
while. Let’s go back.”
Amanda nodded her head, “Okay.
As Maxwell also found him just now, Logan didn’t dare to follow them closely.
He pondered for several seconds and walked to his car. He planned to wait for them in front of the
entrance of the community in advance.
It was not the first time for Logan to come to find Amanda ever since they moved here, so he knew
which entrance they would get in when they came back.
However, Amanda and Maxell pushed the stroller out to sunbathe and they didn’t drive. They walked
back slowly.
When they came back, Logan had been waiting downstairs for twenty minutes.
He noticed that the man that accompanied Amanda before was following her and had been keeping a
proper distance with her. They entered the community soon.
Several minutes later, the man walked out of the community and got into an off-roader that was parked
by the roadside. He didn’t get off the car again.
Logan remembered the license number of the car and deliberately drove past the off-roader. When
driving past it, he took a glance into the car and found that there was more than one person in the car.
When he left, a man in the car said, “Maxwell, this car seems to belong to Amanda’s boyfriend.”
Maxwell took a glance from the rear-view mirror and replied with a nasal sound.
Recalling what happened today, Maxwell knitted his brows. He could roughly guess why Amanda
suddenly suggested taking the baby out for sunbathing today.
His subordinate asked, “Should we report this to Mr. Conrad?”
Maxwell replied, “It’s useless even though we report it. Mr. Conrad is looking for the other baby-sitter.”
Several seconds later, Maxwell added, “Pay more attention during this period. There can’t be any
accident.”
“Okay.”
…
At four o’clock in the studio…
When Stella was drawing designs, her phone that was placed on the desk vibrated.
She picked up her phone and found it was a call from Louis.
Louis asked her, “Ms. Radomil, we find out other conditions during the investigation. Is it convenient for
you to come here now?”
Taking a glance at the design drawing that was almost finished, Stella nodded her head, “Okay.”
After ending the call, she put her phone into her pocket, picked up her bag and left.
On the way there, her phone rang again.
It was from a strange number.
Stella hurriedly stopped by the roadside and answered the call, “Hello?”
But there were only the noises of electricity from the other end of the phone and she didn’t hear anyone
speaking.
Stella clenched her phone and asked again, “Are you Adolph?”
There was still no reply.
Before Stella could ask again, the call was ended.
Looking at the screen that gradually became dim, Stella heaved a sigh silently.
It looked like it was just a nuisance call.
She put down her phone and started the car again.
When arriving at Louis’ office, Stella stood in front of the door and reached out to knock at the door.
Louis sound soon came from inside, “Come in please.”
Stella pushed open the door and greeted him.
Louis pointed at the chair opposite to the office desk, “Ms. Radomil, please take a seat first.”
Stella sat down and then asked in a gentle voice, “Is there any result on the matter of that
competition?”
Louis clasped his hands and put them on the desk. He knitted his brows tightly and heaved a sigh, “I
had had a conversation with the two judges during these two days. But they all told me that they
wouldn’t help Modesty cheat in the contest. They’re all famous in the international community and
Robert has been guaranteeing for them and Modesty, so I…”
Stella understood what he meant. She smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. Sorry to bother you. I will
investigate the rest matters.”
Both she and Louis had no certain evidence now. If they accused the judges who had high social status
based on their suspicion, it would be disadvantage to them and they couldn’t persuade the others
either.
Louis continued, “I asked you to come here not simply because of this matter. Ms. Radomil, do you
remember the rules of the semi-final competition?”
Stella didn’t expect that he would suddenly mention the semi-final competition and was stunned for a
while. She then replied, “I remember.”
Louis said, “The semi-final competition required ten designers to complete the correspondent design
according to the number they drew by lot.”
“Does it have any problem?”
Louis nodded his head seriously, “Yes.”
