After Elaine was forcibly taken away by the car, everything returned to normal.
Those people also left quickly.
Caesar turned his head and looked at Sherry who had fainted on the roadside. While he was about to
leave, dozens of headlights suddenly beamed behind him.
Caesar slightly narrowed his eyes, walked to Sherry and carried her in his arms and walked to the
middle of the road.
The next second, the black car stopped in front of them. Maxwell hurriedly got out of the car.
Caesar said, “Quickly send her to the hospital. She may have a miscarriage if it’s too late.”
Seeing this, Maxwell hurriedly took Sherry and asked at the same time, “Where is Ms. James?”
Caesar frowned, “I failed to protect Elaine well. She was taken away by them.”
Maxwell said to the people in the car next to him, “Keep chasing, don’t let them leave City N.”
After saying that, he quickly carried Sherry into the car and drove to the nearest hospital.
Caesar looked at the cars heading ahead and thought for a few seconds. He then drove and followed
Maxwell.
…
Meanwhile, in London.
Stella was packing her things after having lunch.
After they went to the hospital later, they would directly go back to City N at night.
For some reason, the number of things they needed to pack now was twice as much as what they first
brought here, which took up a total of five suitcases.
In addition to clothes, she also brought a lot of gifts for each person.
Those were for Sherry, Channing, Winnie, Elaine and even Nathan.
It was 3 p.m. after Stella finished packing up these things.
She pushed all the suitcases to the door and clapped her hand, “Okay, let’s go.”
Clarence said, “Those who don’t know might think you’re a purchasing agent.”
Stella was speechless.
She harrumphed slightly, “People like you who don’t have friends won’t understand.”
Hearing this, Clarence froze and did not continue this topic.
Stella remembered Vincent. Since Noah was sick, Vincent had never appeared again.
She digressed from this topic, “Okay, okay. We shall go now.”
After arriving at the hospital, she saw that William’s face looked much better than yesterday and he
looked quite energetic.
Outside the door, many senior executives of the company wanted to see him but they were all stopped
outside by the assistant.
Seeing Stella and Clarence go in, someone could not help but mutter.
They all questioned Clarence’s eligibility to handle all the things of the company for William in the past
two weeks.
Although Complex Corporation and Conrad Group had collaboration before, it was unprecedented that
any partner would cooperate to this extent.
The assistant explained while smiling, “The person just now is William’s daughter and Mr. Conrad is
William’s future son-in-law.”
The group of people was astounded, “When did William have a daughter?”
“That’s a long story.”
Whist they were talking outside the ward, Stella entered the ward and saw that William was flipping
through something.
Stella walked over, “What are you looking at?”
William raised his head and smiled at her. He handed over the thing in his hand.
It was a thick photo album.
Stella turned over a page. The first page was a photo of William and her mother.
It was just that at that time, William in the photo was still Charles and he was having the exact same
face as Lyndon.
She flipped a few more pages. There was a new-born little girl among them.
While Stella was looking at it, William said, “After the explosion, there was nothing left in the Stewards’
Mansion. These photos were developed from Mr. Thomas’ film.”
Stella asked, “Are you close to Mr. Thomas?”
“Your mother was Mr. Thomas’s student while the Steward family and the Thomas family have been
friends for generations. Mr. Thomas was like an uncle to me to some extent. After the plane crash of
my parents that year, Mr. Thomas really missed these two previous friends so I gave him a copy of all
the films in my house but I never thought that it would end up actually helping myself.”
“My mother is…beautiful.”
William slowly said, “You and your mother look very similar. Your personalities are also alike.”
Stella closed the photo album and spoke after quite a while, “Sorry.”
Hearing this, William was slightly stunned, probably a little puzzled.
Stella lowered her head, “I knew the truth about the past and I knew you were my father but I still chose
to sidestep at that time and pretend that nothing had happened.”
William responded, “You don’t have to blame yourself. I know what you’re thinking. After so many
years, I haven’t been able to do my part as a father and eventually, I even had to leave you to deal with
the mess of Steward Group and be in danger. I should be the one who says sorry.”
“No…Steward Group’s troubles were something that I volunteered to deal with. I felt that I couldn’t just
contemplate my own navel and take no responsibility.”
“You’ve done a great job. Without you, Steward Group wouldn’t be like this today.”
Being complimented like that, Stella was a little embarrassed. She touched her nose, “Then when do
you…intend to go back to City N?”
William answered, “I’ll when I get to find Daniel and finish dealing with the things here. If it could finish
quickly, I’ll go back within six months but if things go slowly, it may take two to three years.”
Stella said, “Daniel…”
“He’ll be fine,” William added, “I’ve heard about what happened between him and your friend. During
his absence, if your friend has any needs, I’ll try my best to fulfil them.”
The two of them chatted for the whole afternoon. Before leaving, Stella asked, “Can I take this album
with me?”
William nodded, “You can take it. I have a backup here.”
Stella held the photo album and her mouth curled into a smile, “Then I’ll leave first, have a good rest…
Dad.”
Hearing this, William was stunned and didn't know how to react for the moment.
After saying that, Stella turned around and trotted away.
William watched her back and could not help but smile.
When Stella came out of the ward, the senior executives of the company who had gathered here had
already left. Only Clarence was there.
Stella asked, “When did you come out?”
Clarence kept the phone and put it in his pant pocket, “Seeing you guys talking, I couldn’t get into the
conversation so I came out.”
Stella’s face was beaming with smile. She patted the photo album in her arms, “I’ll show you later on
the plane. I was especially cute when I was a child.”
Clarence’s lips curled. He rubbed her head, “You’re just as cute as ever.”
Stella’s face blushed slightly upon hearing his words. She looked around and was relieved that no one
was nearby to hear them.
She said, “It’s already dark. Let’s go.”
Clarence glanced at the time, “Do you want to go and eat something?”
“No, let’s eat on the plane later.”
They had been out for a month. Thinking that they were going back soon, she was quite happy.
After Stella had just taken a few steps, her wrist was held by someone.
She turned her head and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Clarence stared at her and his thin lips were slightly pursed. After a few seconds, he said, “I have
something to tell you.”
Seeing Clarence’s tense expression, the smile on Stella’s face faded away. She asked softly, “What’s
wrong?”
