Charles snorted. Apparently he was not convinced.

Phoebe’s news appeared on the Internet right after the disclosure of the matter between the Conrad

Group and Stella. It was definitely contrived.

After a short while, Charles continued, “I can agree to the conditions you put forward before. But I have

my conditions too.”

Stella was not surprised at this answer. She smiled, “Mr. Steward, please tell me what it is.”

Charles said, “I can only give half of the properties you want to you. You also know that the Steward

Group in confronting many challenges now. Moreover, its stock price plummeted because of Phoebe’s

scandal. This is what I can give you. It’s the maximum that I can give you.”

Stella licked her lips expressionlessly. She didn’t reply as she was waiting for Charles’ rest words.

Charles continued, “Except for this, you should give me a letter of assurance which assures that you

will not intervene in any projects of the Steward Group. I will also promise to you that you will get all the

benefits that you deserve to get.”

When speaking, Charles took out a document that he printed in advance and pushed it to Steward.

There was Charles’ signature and the Steward Group’s seal on the last page of the document.

Stella took a glance at the document and then lifted her head again, “I can agree to it, Mr. Steward. But

I hope you will not bother my brother again. This is my last condition. Moreover, Ms. Steward must

apologize to my brother. The things she did have greatly impacted my brother’s study and life. If you

don’t agree to this, even though I can let pass this matter, it will be hard for me to face my brother

thereafter.”

Charles narrowed his eyes. After a while, he said, “But you should clear that she will only apologize to

him in private.”

“I know. I just need Ms. Steward to apologize to my brother in person. I don’t mind others.”

Charles didn’t speak again. It was acquiescence.

Stella said, “Mr. Steward, I know that you’re a man of your word. You won’t get back on your words,

right? Comparing to you, I’m so mean.”

When speaking, Stella put a recording pen on the table.

Seeing this, Charles’ expression changed dramatically.

Stella said with difficulty, “I have no choice. I was fooled by this trick by someone yesterday. I should be

smart and put it down to experience. But Mr. Steward, as long as you don’t go back on your words, this

recording will be useless.”

After finishing the words, Stella turned off the recording pen, picked up the pen on the table and signed

her name on the last page of the document. She then opened the inkpad and pressed her fingerprint

on the paper.

After that, Stella picked up the document and recording pen and stood up, “Mr. Steward, please rest

assured. I will handle this matte properly.”

When Stella walked out of the studio, she saw Phoebe standing outside of the door. Her expression

was so hideous. Apparently, Phoebe had heard the conversation.

Stella smiled at her, “Ms. Steward, good morning.”

Phoebe gritted her teeth, “Do you think that you will get the Steward Group by doing this?”

“I never think so. After all, the Steward family has a great fortune and this is just a small part of it. But

as the old saying goes, we should enjoy our when we can.”

After finishing the words, Stella left quickly without paying any attention to Phoebe’s expression.

When Stella appeared in her vision, Phoebe clenched her fists, reluctant to admit defeat. She walked

into the study, “Dad, how can you agree to her conditions so easily?”

Charles stood up and stood in front of the windows with his hands behind his back. He replied in an

indifferent voice, “Those things are not important. We can give her since she wants them.”

“But…”

“Phoebe,” Charles interrupted her, “You should reflect on yourself. You were so careless when doing

those things. You left some evidence and were then threatened.”

Phoebe was suddenly lost for words and lowered her head.

Charles continued, “Does the matter of the Conrad Group yesterday have something to do with you?”

“I…”

Phoebe stammered. After a long while, she replied, “Dad, please rest assured. They will not be able to

find out my relationship with that matter.”

“That’s good.”

After a moment, Charles said, “Let’s stop here.”

Phoebe then left the studied.

At the same time, Charles’ phone rang. When he answered the call, his subordinate’s low voice

sounded from the other end of the phone, “Master, the man that we brought back last time runs away.”

Charles narrowed his eyes gloomily, “How long has it been?”

“Less than ten minutes.”

“Go find him. You don’t need to bring him back again. Directly kill him.”

“Okay.”

It had been raining when Stella drove to her studio. Stella took a glance at the document on the

passenger seat and slightly pressed her lips together.

Since she had gotten the things she wanted now, she should clarify Phoebe’s scandals on the Internet.

However, she was not in a hurry as Charles didn’t give her a time limit. She just needed to finish this

task today.

When she arrived at the studio, she found that her employees were having a heated discussion on the

news on the Internet. But the strange thing was that they were standing at the door when discussing it.

Stella asked, “Why are you standing here?”

The girls shook their heads simultaneously, “This place is cool.”

Seeing this, Stella took a glance into the studio. Combining with their reactions, Stella figured out

something. She raised her brows and smiled, “Go into the studio. It’s still raining outside.”

After finishing the words, she walked into the studio.

Stella pushed open the door of the office and saw Clarence sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. It

seemed like he was sleeping.

Stella closed the door gently, walked to Clarence, picked up the blanket beside the sofa and gently put

it on Clarence.

Stella maintained the posture after finishing this. She slightly leaned forwards and fixed her eyes on

him.

She guessed this wretched man must have not slept last night because there were two light dark

circles below his eyes.

Stella studied him for a while, and then she suddenly leaned forward and landed a kiss on his thin lips.

But she didn’t expect that when she ended the kiss and prepared to stand up, the man in front of her

suddenly opened his black eyes.

Stella, “…”

Clarence fixed his black eyes on her and asked in a low husky voice, “Did you kiss me secretly?”

“I…”

Before Stella could give an explanation, her wrist was grabbed by him. At the next moment, she fell into

the man’s embrace.

Clarence looked askance at her, “You can kiss me above board if you want to. Why did you kiss me

secretly? I won’t mock at you.”

Stella’s eyelids jumped. She thought she had made an unwise decision just now.

Seeing that she was silent, Clarence rubbed her shoulder with his chin and said in a husky voice, “Why

don’t you kiss me now? Then I have to kiss you, okay.”

It was not a question. Instead, it was a notification.

After finishing the words, he bit her lips. The kissed carried his miss for Stella and he slowly deepened

the kiss.

Stella patted his chest, wanting to tell him that they were now in the office and reminding him that it

would be awkward if someone came to the office at this moment.

But Clarence ignored it. He clasped the back of her hand and pressed her onto the sofa while kissing

her.
