Prev Chapter Next Chapter

There were lots of guests visiting the Conrad, it was as much as or even more guests than during

Dempsey's birthday party last year.

One different thing was Justin rarely show himself, he was hiding all the time.

But today, he stayed beside Dempsey all the time, he had never left his side.

Although Dempsey was walking with a cane, he looked extremely lively and greeted all the guests

while introducing Justin.

"Justin has been staying home due to some health issues, but he had gotten much better now, you'll be

seeing him often in the future, please take good care of him." That was his lines.

Vincent stood not far away holding a wine glass, "It seems like Dempsey is determined to bring Justin

into the Conrad Group," he said softly.

Donald mocked, "He has got no other way. His force in London is already a mess."

Stella looked at Justin who stayed beside Dempsey in his wheelchair in silence. He had not spoken

and looked like a puppet being controlled.

She frowned, "Justin didn't do it willingly."

"He wouldn't have waited until now if he wants the Conrad Group," Vincent added.

"If Dempsey stays beside him all the time, we wouldn't have a chance to ask anything," Stella said.

Donald took a sip of his champagne, "We can't keep waiting, I'll do something."

He strode towards Dempsey and smiled, "Hi Mr. Dempsey."

Dempsey was enjoying his talk with someone else but his face stiffened as he turned to Donald, "It's

you, when did you come back?" he said with a cold tone.

"It's been quite some time," Donald looked towards Justin, "I heard that Justin was hurt, is he okay?"

Justin shook his head and spoke for the first time tonight, "I'm okay."

Donald let out a concerning sigh, "Your forehead is injured, do be careful not to get infected."

Someone approached them from behind during their conversation; he took the chance to pour his drink

onto Justin.

Both Vincent and Stella stood speechless afar.

He was truly a natural actor.

"What are you doing?" Dempsey yelled angrily.

Donald immediately took out his handkerchief, "I'm so sorry, I'm a bit drunk, and let the drink slid from

my hand."

"You…"

Justin took his handkerchief and wiped his shirt, "It's alright."

Dempsey was infuriated, but he couldn't simply let it out due to Donald as well as in front of the guests,

he yelled at the maid nearby, "What are you waiting for? Bring Justin back for a change."

The maid quickly moved forward, "Yes." And they pushed Justin away.

Donald threw a glance at Stella, signaling her to follow Justin while he blocked in front of Dempsey and

apologized sincerely, "I'm so sorry, let me make it up to you by offering you a free legal consultation."

Dempsey thought he was crazy, "Why would I need legal consultation? I guess you are out of your

mind staying too long overseas."

Dempsey tried to collaborate with the Shawn family before, but Donald and Clarence became alliances

out of nowhere, and the Shawn family seemed not interested, so he gave up. He disliked Donald but he

appeared in front of him and made him angry.

Before Stella went follow Justin, Vincent reminded her, "Joanna was nowhere to be seen, do be careful

not to bump into her."

Stella nodded after a few second's pause.

Justin told the maid to leave after they arrived at his room, "You can leave me now, I'll change by

myself."

"But Master Conrad said…"

"Are you trying to go against me?"

The maid didn't dare to speak further and left.

Justin went into his room, changed his clothes, and went to the backyard instead of the living room.

It was quiet in the backyard's garden.

He sat quietly for a while before saying, "You can come out now."

Stella walked towards him, "Mr. Conrad."

Justin turned his wheelchair and was slightly surprised, "Stella?"

Stella nodded. "I heard that you were injured, are you okay?"

Justin smiled, "I accidentally tripped myself while getting down the stairs, no severe injuries, it was just

scratched."

He paused and continued, "Clarence is not with you?"

"He went to London." Stella bit her lips, "Did you… Not know about his trip to London?"

"I haven't heard of it, something is up at London?" he asked.

"I'm not sure but I heard that it was arranged by the Conrad family."

Justin was shocked slightly and frowned, "I see."

Stella asked, "What?"

"I was curious why he wanted this party but now I know why." Justin sighed, "He hasn't given up."

Stella remained silent, it seemed like Justin didn't know about it.

Sending Clarence to London or Conrad's next step, they kept everything from him.

He wouldn't have agreed if they let him know.

Justin asked after a while, "This is the reason why you are here to meet me?"

Stella didn't deny, "I thought you know what are they up to, and I don't know the situation of Clarence in

London, so…"

Justin said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't know anything. I'm sure Clarence will handle everything

well, perhaps he only needs a little more time."

"All right, thank you."

"How have you been lately?" Justin asked.

"I'm still the same, not too good, not too bad either," Stella answered.

"There's nothing much I could do to help, but I wish that you could forget the past and live a bright

future."

Stella nodded, "I should go now."

"All right," Justin said.

Stella turned to where she came from but someone blocked her way when she was about to reach the

living room.

Joanna looked at her and said, "Long time no see."

Stella's face stiffened and gritted her teeth.

Joanna smiled, "Looks like you hate me. Is it because I killed the baby in your womb?"
