Clarence smiled silently and looked up at him. “That's interesting. You don't ask your mother what she
does, instead asking me?”
Emmett's face stiffened and he gritted his teeth before saying, “I went to her, but she wouldn't tell me.
And... As her son, I don't want to investigate her."
“So, Mr. Carter is asking me to investigate your mother for you?”
Emmett did not speak, but nodded his head with difficulty.
Clarence said blandly, “I can do that on one condition.”
“What's the condition?”
“Don't show up in front of Stella in the future.”
Emmett took a breath and said, “You don't need to talk about this again. She has already talked to me
before.”
Clarence smiled quietly without saying anything.
After a few seconds, he said again, “One more thing, since Mr. Carter has asked me to help you look
into this, no matter what method I use, who I talk to and what result I get in the end, you have no right
to interfere.”
At this point, he had no other choice.
It wasn't that he was trying to exonerate himself or anything, but that if it got out to William, his mother...
What he could do is trying his best to restore the truth of this matter and find out why his mother did it
so that he can help her deal with the aftermath.
Before leaving, Emmett said, “I have one last question for you.”
Clarence said, “Go ahead.”
Emmett asked, “I always feel that you are very hostile towards me. I know it's because I like Stella. But
obviously Horace Jason mean more in her heart compared to me. You don't seem to have much
hostility towards him.”
Clarence's expression remained unchanged. “That's because Horace Jason is more decent than you,
and he knows what he should do and what he shouldn't. He doesn't even bother to use the tricks you
played.”
As Clarence's voice fell, Emmett's face turned pale again, and even his body was a little shaken.
He admitted that he had deliberately slandered Clarence in order to be with Stella.
But he was desperate at that time.
It seemed that in a relationship, playing some naughty little tricks wouldn’t hurt.
But he lost all he had.
After a long while, Emmett said, “When this is over, I will go to Canada and won't be back in recent
years.”
After speaking, he turned around and left, even his back appeared to be a bit sad and lonely.
It looked a little pitiful inevitable.
Nathan stepped forward when he saw this, with sympathy on his face and said, “Mr. Conrad...”
Clarence glanced at him, “Do you want to go to Canada with him?”
Nathan gathered himself up instantly and said, “Let's go up.”
…
When it was time to get off work in the evening, Sherry was discussing with Stella what they were
going to eat for dinner. But as soon as she closed the studio door, she saw an uninvited guest standing
not far away.
Sherry was speechless and then said, “Why are you here again.”
Daniel took a moment and said, “Actually, I'm here to see Stella.”
Sherry, “…”
Stella instantly knew why he came to her without thinking over.
She said, “Let’s go to dinner, my treat.”
Twenty minutes later, they were sitting in a Chinese restaurant.
Stella finished her order, and gave the menu to the waiter. Then she looked at Daniel and said, “How is
your injury? Are you feeling better?”
Daniel took a cup of water to drink and nodded. “Nothing serious.”
“What about my father, how is he?”
“He is doing fine, less busy than before, but still a lot is going on because the headquarters is moving
back to City N.”
Stella said, “How much longer would it take?”
“At a normal pace, it could be the end of the year. If it was delayed, should be early next year.” Daniel
said.
She pursed her lips lightly, thinking there were almost four months before the end of the year.
Daniel coughed and glanced at Sherry quietly. It seemed that he wants to say something and was
seeking her help, but Sherry directly looked away and ignored him.
Daniel couldn't help but was silent for a while before saying, “Ms. Radomil, I want to explain something
to you about Emmett…”
“Emmett has already come to me today, and he has explained everything pretty clear.”
Daniel shook his head. “He didn't make it clear, this was not his intention, he...”
Stella interrupted him and said calmly, “Even if it wasn't his intention, the mistake has already been
made, isn't it? Or maybe you can tell me that it had nothing to do with anyone, except that the doctor,
while doing a paternity test, mixed up the DNA sample and accidentally caused this result. That's the
only explanation I can accept.”
Daniel said nothing.
Stella said again, “I don't want to talk about this anymore. I'm very tired, so just let it be. What we
should do now is planning for the future.”
“I will talk to William.”
Stella shook her head and said, “You don't have to talk to him. I've already asked Chan about his
feelings. He felt quite shitty. There is no hurry in this matter.”
When Daniel wanted to say more, Stella said, “Don't go to Chan either. I know my brother the best. At
such times, the more others try to persuade him, the more he will reject and dislike him.
“This matter has nothing to do with you in essence, and you don't need to feel guilty for it. But I
understand that as a friend of Emmett, you want to speak and explain for him. But as for me, the
injuries that Chan has suffered cannot be easily smoothed out by such explanations.”
“I don't care about anyone else. I only care about my brother.”
Hearing her words, Daniel was speechless. He wanted to speak several times, but only to find he
couldn't refute anything.
At this time, the dishes came up one after another.
Stella's tone returned as usual. “Let's eat, I have been here with Sherry before, and it tastes good.”
Daniel was really impressed.
Women were fickle as expected.
They could have several attitudes in different scenarios.
After dinner, Stella went to the bathroom.
Sherry and Daniel stood outside the restaurant waiting for her.
Sherry said, "Don't take to heart what Stella said just now.”
Daniel was stunned for a moment and asked, “What?”
Sherry said, “I said, she is not targeting you. It’s just that she has always cared about Chan. Maybe
because she's always gentle and mild, so you didn't see that she was actually furious about it at this
time. Don't mention this in front of her again. She will find her own way.”
Daniel pursed his lips. “I see.”
He said again, “Is Channing Radomil awfully rejective?"
Sherry nodded. “Actually, it is understandable. After all, his father was Jeffrey Radomil since he was
born, and naturally he has no feelings for William.”
