Stella put away her smile, nodding slightly.

Sherry couldn’t help cursing inwardly. She asked in a gentle tone, “Have you given her that necklace?”

“Yep. Annie tossed it away.”

Sherry heaved a sigh, “Forget it. Just let it be. Anyway, you’ve got the design payment. It’s their own

business how to deal with it.”

Although her words made sense, Sherry knew that each designed product was unique containing a

designer’s effort. Stella was definitely upset when seeing her designed end product be smashed and

tossed in her presence.

Stella said, “Let’s go home.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Sherry saw Clarence walk out of the hotel. He was expressionless,

emanating a cold aura. He strode over to a Rolls-Royce parked at the roadside.

He didn’t spare any glance at them.

Nathan, who followed him, cast a hesitant glance at Stella. He wasn’t sure if he should invite Stella to

get into the car, so he could only nod at her and drove the car away hurriedly.

Sherry said, “What is wrong with the wretched man again? It’s his fault that he’s so playful with women.

How could he be so arrogant? I have mistaken him as a good man. Phew!”

Stella faintly smiled, “Let’s go.”

...

Back to Starry Lake Mansion, Stella was walking upstairs. The servant whispered to her, “Mrs. Conrad,

did you fight with Mr. Conrad again? Just now, he came back home with a long face as if he was quite

angry.”

“No worries. He’s always like this.”

The servant left after exchanged a few words with her.

Walking into her room, Stella took out her suitcase from the cabinet and roughly put all her clothes in it.

Then she pulled the suitcase out of her room.

When she walked out of the room, she saw Clarence lean against the door with both his hands in the

trousers pockets. He stared at her expressionlessly, “Where are you going?”

Stella answered, “Mr. Conrad, you are getting married. I don’t have any reason to continue staying

here.”

Clarence suddenly sneered, “You’ve listened to one sentence from her and you believed her. I’ve said

a lot of words to you but you don’t care at all. Stella, it’s just your excuse, isn’t it?”

“Mr. Conrad, if you are delighted to think this way, please go ahead.”

Stella wasn’t in the mood to talk nonsense with him. Directly, she dragged the suitcase forward.

When she reached the stairs, she stopped.

She acted way too recklessly.

Not far away from her, Clarence didn’t move a bit. He looked at her calmly.

There was fury suppressed in Stella’s heart for some reason. Now he seemed to compete with her in

silence. She thought for a moment and walked downstairs, “Excuse me, Alisa. Could you please help

me take the luggage downstairs?”

Alisa was about to say yes, but she saw Clarence appear on the top of the stairs with a cold look.

She was enlightened. With one hand covering her waist, she said, “Alas... Mrs. Conrad, I’ve got a

strong pain in my back recently. I can’t lift anything heavy.”

After that, she escaped from the scene.

Stella was speechless.

Then she decided to give up her belongings.

She turned around and took a step. While walking, she heard Clarence’s voice from her back, “You

should know the consequences after leaving here.”

Upon hearing it, Stella paused her pace.

Clarence walked downstairs slowly, sitting on the sofa.

Stella looked at him, “Mr. Conrad, are you threatening me?”

“If you are delighted to think this way, please go ahead.”

Stella was choked up.

She wondered the wretched man might have something wrong mentally.

Stella pressed her lips and tried to reason with him, “Mr. Conrad, Miss Steward shouldn’t know my

relationship with you. She also doesn’t know we’re staying in the same house right now. If she knew

it...”

Clarence looked up at her, “If she knew it, what would happen?”

Stella was interrupted by him. For a moment, she forgot what she was about to talk to him.

Clarence added, “Stella, I believe you should explain why you showed up there. You shouldn’t have

questioned me about whom I’m going to marry.”

Stella denied that she was questioning him.

It was him who obviously wanted to have two men at the same time.

Stella inhaled deeply, “Mr. Conrad, I didn’t mean to show up there. Miss Steward is my client. I went

there to send her the end product. Later, because of the incident in the auction, I needed to explain it to

Mr. Jason.”

“Did he listen to your explanation?”

“Well... No, he didn’t.”

“Was your explanation useful?”

“No, it wasn’t either.”

Clarence looked over at her coldly, “Then, tell me. What were you doing there?”

Stella quieted down for a moment and said, “Mr. Conrad, something happened to my design. As the

designer, I should be responsible for it. It’s not that I didn’t need to explain because it was not useful.”

“I didn’t see how responsible you were. I just saw that Horace Jason was against his father because of

you.”

Clarence’s tone was indifferent as if he was quite happy to see what had happened.

Stella didn’t speak. She knew how stressful Horace would be when he clarified for her in public.

Clarence added, “Stella, Horace Jason has the engagement with the Conrad family already. Now the

Jason family knows your existence and has witnessed that Horace Jason could do anything for you. Do

you think they would pretend that nothing has happened and not deal with you?”

Stella didn’t understand it, “What do you mean?”

“I mean your enemies are not only the Conrad family but also the Jason family. As long as you walk out

of this door, I have nothing to do with what you’ll end up with.”

Stella was silent for a few seconds. She chuckled, “Oh, right. Mr. Conrad, you’re not interested in

dealing with such a matter, anyway.”

Clarence licked his thin lips, his black eyes gazing at her without a blink.

He had never been in a mood to explain anything. He didn’t care how others would misunderstand him.

However, he suddenly wanted to dig out the ungrateful woman’s heart and see if she still had her

conscience.

Clarence said, “If I don’t deal with things for you, do you think you can still stand here speaking to me?”

Stella smiled at him perfunctorily. She wasn’t in the mood to continue speaking to him. She said, “No

matter what, Mr. Conrad, since you’ve engaged with Miss Steward, you’d better find a chance and

make everything clear to her. In a married, the most important is honesty and responsibility.”

Clarence cast her a glance, “Do you mean that I wasn’t honest enough to you and I didn’t take my

responsibility in the past?”

Stella didn’t answer.

He had admitted it himself.

“Well, Mr. Conrad, I just think since you’re getting married to Miss Steward, you shouldn’t have hidden

anything from her. Otherwise...”

“Stella, are you jealous?”

Stella was confused.

Clarence stood up and approached her step by step, “You kept talking about Phoebe Steward and

marriage. Aren’t you jealous?”

Stella couldn’t help taking steps back. With a blushed face, she denied, “No, I’m not! Mr. Conrad, I just

think your behaviors are way too shameless!”

While she was stepping back, she bumped into something. When she was about to fall, she grabbed

the shirt in front of her in a panic.
