Noticing her wired expression, Samuel walked over and asked, “Ms. Radomil, what’s wrong?”
Stella shook her head and bit the tip of her tongue with great force to regain her composure and
rationality, “Go to the Conrad family and see what Clarence is doing. If you see him, tell him that
Amanda was killed and ask him to come here. If you can’t see him…”
Stella took a deep breath and then continued, “If you can’t see him, go back home directly.”
After Samuel’s leaving, Stella, though was still trembling slightly, suppressed her scare and said to the
police officer, “Can you please take me to see… her corpse.”
“Follow me.”
They then went to the mortuary morgue. When the white cloth was lifted, Stella felt breathless when
looking at the familiar face.
The police officer asked, “We’re trying to contact her family. Do you know their numbers?”
Stella replied in a husky voice, “I don’t know.”
“Have you seen his boyfriend? How’s their relationship? Did they quarrel with each other in usual
times?”
After a while of silence, Stella shook her head.
She only knew some shallow information about Amanda.
Exactly, those shallow understandings were not true.
She only knew that her name was Amanda Bryon.
Her stories and her families were all fabricated by them.
They lied to her.
Stella suddenly felt it ridiculous. She never expected that her assumptions would be proved by this
means one day.
After leaving the mortuary morgue, Stella looked at the sun outside, feeling it unprecedentedly
dazzling.
The police officers finished interrogating Logan.
Although Logan insisted on denying it and asserted that Amanda had been missed for several days
and that he couldn’t get through to her, the police had received an anonymous report that the last
person Amanda met before missing was Logan.
At the same time, when examining her corpse, the forensic scientist found some residues of the other
person’s tissue on Amanda’s teeth, which matched the teeth mark on the back of Logan’s right hand.
They were now waiting for the report from the laboratory and then they could convict Logan.
Stella sat by the door of the police station and only until the sky turned dark did she receive a call from
Samuel.
Right at this moment, Logan was taken out of the interrogation room and he was about to be arrested.
When he saw Stella, he curled his lips into a weird smile, “Ms. Radomil.”
Stella looked towards him expressionlessly.
Logan turned his head to look at the police officer, “I want to talk with him. Can you give me several
minutes?”
The officer looked towards him and then at Stella. When seeing Stella nodding her head, he walked
aside.
Logan asked, “Ms. Radomil, you must know Amanda, right? After all, she had taken care of your child
for a long time.”
Stella didn’t change her expression as she asked, “What do you want to say?”
“Alas, I used to be a man with insights, but I didn’t expect I would suffer this one day. Now that they
abandoned me right after that and framed me, I think I should do you a favor. Ms. Radomil, I can tell
you that your child is probably in danger.”
Stella instantly clenched her fists, “What did you do to him?”
Logan chuckled, “Ms. Radomil, you wronged me. I’m not that capable to do anything harmful to the
future heir of the Conrad Group. Naturally, it was tone by a person who was able to do that.”
Stella pressed her lips into a straight line when she heard the words, coldness gathering in her eyes.
“Ms. Radomil, you’d better go there as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’m afraid that you will even fail to
reach him before he dies.”
Stella didn’t reply. She turned around and quickly left.
She had been stepping on the accelerator on the way to the Conrads’ Mansion.
She trembled all over, maybe because of the fright, or maybe because of anger.
Clarence actually lied to her.
She had been fooled by him like a stupid.
She believed in his hogwash again and again.
He told her numerous times that she could believe him.
But what did she get in the end?
No wonder Clarence also commented her as foolish. It was true.
When Stella arrived at the Conrad’s Mansion, the gates of the mansion were opened and there was no
one in the surroundings.
Stella directly drove the car to the main house and stopped in front of it.
Only Joanna, who wrapped her arms in front of her chest, was in the living hall.
Joanna smiled when she saw Stella, “What a rare guest. I thought you would not step into this mansion
in the rest of your life.”
Stella ignored her. She went upstairs and checked the rooms one by one.
Joanna said in a flat tone, “Don’t waste your time. The one you want to find is not in the house.”
Stella finally realized that the house was strangely quiet. Except for Joanna, there was not even a maid
in the house.
Stella then turned around. When she prepared to walk out of the house, Joanna blocked her way, “Why
don’t you ask me what happened today?”
Stella looked at her and said in a cold voice, “Fuck off.”
Joanna was stunned and her expression was changed slightly. She didn’t expect Stella would talk to
her so impolitely.
However, before she could come to her sense, Stella had directly walked to the door.
“hold on.” Joanna sneered, “Is this your way to talk to your senior?”
Stella was amused. She turned around to look at her, “I took you as my senior in the past because I
thought you were Clarence’s mother. But it turns out that you’re not his mother. Moreover, the things
you did were so immoral. Why should I respect you like respecting a senior?”
“You…”
“You’re right. I have no couth and it’s impossible to change my inborn vulgarity and bad qualities. Why
do you have to annoy me now? I just asked you to fuck off. I’ve shown you some respect as I didn’t
curse at your families.”
Stella continued, “By the way, I was a coward as I didn’t want to cause any trouble. Nor did I dare to
offend the Conrads before. But this time, I will pull you into hell too if my child has an accident. You
have a son, so I think you can understand how I feel now.”
Joanna had never seen Stella being so tough and overbearing. She was stunned and remained silent.
When Stella finished the words, she didn’t waste time on Joanna any longer and directly left the house.
When she walked to the garden and prepared to get into her car, she vaguely heard some sounds from
the distance and it seemed like there was a commotion.
Stella looked over following the sound and found it was from the backyard.
Although she had lived in Conrad’s Mansion for a period, she had never been to the backyard.
But there seemed to be an inexplicable force that drove her to go there to have a look.
She had a hunch that both Clarence and the baby were in the backyard.
Stella ran over without hesitation.
It suddenly began to drizzle. It was almost summer, but Stella still felt it icy-cold when the rain fell on
her face.
After running for a while, Stella finally came close to the source of the sounds.
Her guess was right: Clarence was in the backyard. And Dempsey was standing opposite to him.
Both of them had many subordinates gathering behind them. The ambience was so strenuous.
Stella looked around and decided not to walk over. She found a place to hide and held her breath.
It would not have any function if she directly came over; instead, it would only make the thing more
sophisticated. She should make the next plan after making clear of the situation.
