Seeing this, Dempsey knitted his brows tightly. He turned his head to look at the babysitter, only to see
the panic on her face. The babysitter slummed onto the ground, “It’s none of my business. I didn’t
mean to do it. It was Madame Conrad who instructed me to do so.”
Dempsey was stunned, “What did you say?”
The babysitter said in a trembling voice, “It was Madame Conrad who asked me to do so. She asked
me to smother the kid in front of you. I… I was just carrying out her order.”
Even Dempsey was clutched by chillness when he heard the words.
She wanted to smother the baby in front of them.
How vicious she was that she could think of such a cruel mean?
Clarence let go of Stella and said in an extremely cold voice, “Oh, I forget her.”
Dempsey was not well-grounded on this matter, so he didn’t say anything. Pulling a long face, he
quickly walked towards the front house with the support of his crutch.
Dempsey’s men followed him to leave.
Stella stood over there with her lips being pressed into a line. It was hard to read her inner thought
through her expression.
Right at this moment, Vincent walked over with two doctors. One of them had an examination on
Dolores, and one of them prepared to give the baby a check-up.
Stella dodged him and hugged the baby tightly in her embrace.
The doctor looked towards Clarence. Clarence then said to Stella in a soft voice, “He keeps crying, so
let the doctor examine his condition.”
Stella looked up at him. When their eyes met in the air, Clarence only found thick vigilance and defense
in her eyes.
Clarence stiffened and moved his thin lips trying to say something, yet he couldn’t even utter a syllable.
Stella walked past him and stopped in front of the doctor, “Can I hold him when you’re having the
examination?”
The doctor nodded and then began to examine the baby’s condition.
Seeing this scene, Nathan and Vincent exchanged a glance and they all noticed sympathy in the other
person’s eyes.
Clarence was completely doomed this time.
Vincent coughed, took a step forward and said to Clarence, “I got a piece of news just now. Amanda
died. She was killed by Logan.”
Clarence was dumbfounded for a while and he seemed to be at a loss temporarily. He spoke after a
while of silence, “I see.”
Clarence continued, “Take care of the things here. I will go there to have a look.”
Vincent grabbed his arm, “Wait, don’t be impulsive. Let’s wait and see how Dempsey will deal with it.”
“Okay.”
After Clarence’s leaving, Vincent retreated his hands and then found her palm was wet. He spread his
hand and found the blood on his palm.
Vincent was startled. He wanted to stop Clarence, yet only to find he had gone far. He could only watch
him disappearing into the night.
As for Dolores, the doctor examined her condition and concluded that she was injected with a kind of
drug. Luckily, the dosage was small and she would wake up soon.
The baby gradually stopped crying in Stella’s arms and sobbed from time to time.
The doctor put down the auscultator, “He was probably started. Luckily he was not suffocated because
of your timely rescue. If you show up a while later, he might have been in danger.”
Stella tightened the embrace of the baby when she heard the words and her back broke out into cold
sweats unknowingly.
Nathan walked over, “Ms. Radomil…”
Stella didn’t say anything when she saw Nathan and simply walked away with the baby in her arms.
Nathan was rendered speechless.
They were really doomed this time.
Several minutes later, there came some noises from the backdoor.
Channing ran over quickly.
And Emmett also came with him.
When Channing saw the bloodstains on the ground, he looked towards Stella, “Did you get hurt?”
Stella shook her head, “I’m fine.”
Emmett looked around with his brows slightly furrowed.
It was easy to guess what had happened just now.
Seeing this, Vincent said to Nathan, “I think there won’t be any other problems here. You shall take
care of Clarence’s mother and I will go to the hospital. I can stop him if he really loses control of
himself.”
Nathan nodded his head, “Okay.”
The men in the surroundings also left along with Vincent’s leave.
Stella closed her eyes and suddenly broke the silence, “Chan, give me a hand.”
Channing immediately lifted his hands to support Stella.
Only then did he realize that Stella was trembling all over. It seemed like she couldn’t maintain her
balance.
Emmett also walked over, “Stella, let me take you to leave.”
Stella gently shook her head, “No thanks.”
After a short while, when she recovered from it, she handed the child to Channing, “Take care of the
baby. You can’t let go of him before I come back, nor can you give him to anyone.”
Nathan lowered his head with guilty.
Channing frowned, “Where are you going?”
Stella replied, “I will settle this matter.”
Emmett called her name, “Stella…”
“I can go there myself.”
…
Sitting on the sofa, Joanna curled her lips into a smirk when she heard the gunshot from afar. She
looked relaxed and pleased.
After a long while, there came some footsteps from the door.
Then there came Dempsey’s cold and stern voice, “Are you crazy?”
Joanna looked towards him and said in a composed voice, “What’s wrong with it? Now that you can’t
control Clarence no matter how hard you try, I can do you a favor and prevent possible threats. Does it
have any problems?”
Dempsey was so furious that he shivered all over, “Looks like you’re completely crazy. Why did you
have to offend Clarence? Do you know that he even wanted to kill me tonight? Do you think he will let
go of you?”
Joanna gathered the shawl on her shoulders and didn’t change her expression. “Didn’t he want to kill
me a long time ago?” asked Joanna.
“That’s true. But have you ever thought of why he didn’t kill you? If not for Justin, do you think you can
still live until now? You would have…”
“To be honest, I wanted to die a long time ago. My son suffered a lot and I knew the most how bitter he
felt. But you still tortured him by taking Clarence back to Conrad’s Mansion. Wasn’t it the same as
telling him that he was a good for nothing? Clarence grew up together with Justin. He could run and
jump and he gradually took over the Conrad Group. Do you know what it means to Justin – it’s a kind of
tremendous pain and suffering.”
Dempsey retorted, “You’re so extreme. Justin has never thought so.”
Joanna sneered, “It’s because he’s so silly that he really takes that illegitimate son as his brother. What
else can I do? I can only pave the road to success for him and do everything that he’s supposed to do
for him.”
Dempsey was a bit helpless. He waved his hand, “Hurry up to leave. They can resist his men for some
time. Don’t come back after leaving. I will send Justin abroad several days later, and you…”
“Why do I have to leave? Clarence wants to kill me, right? Then just let him do it. Even if I have to die,
he will not have a happy and careless life.”
Only her death could trigger the development of her plan.
Dempsey subconsciously shook his head, not knowing what to say at the moment.
Right at this moment, a man hurriedly ran into the house, “Master Conrad, Young Master Clarence is
coming.”
Dempsey frowned tightly, “Hurry up and ask Justin to come back.”
Justin went to the hospital for an examination this afternoon and he hadn’t come back.
Only Justin could stop Clarence for the time being.
