Seeing that Stella was taken aback, Clarence kissed her on her forehead, “All right. Don’t worry about
him. It’s his own business. He’s a grownup now. It’s the psychological disorder that he needs to
overtime it by himself.”
Stella shook her head gently, “It’s not a psychological disorder.”
“Jeffrey Radomil and Channing are different individuals. Jeffrey Radomil has nothing to do with what
Channing was doing. Since Channing can’t let go of it, he always feels he has owed you a lot, and his
existence is an error. He also feels that he’s a filthy man because of Jeffrey Radomil’s blood in his
body. He must overcome those thoughts,” Clarence explained.
Stella looked at him. She asked after a long while, “What if he can’t?”
Clarence said, “If he can’t, he’ll be trapped by those things and never make any progress again.”
“Hence, he has pushed all the blames of those things that have happened in the past and have nothing
to do with him. Then he wants to give up all he has to make up for everything, right?”
Meeting her gaze, Clarence hummed to answer after a long while.
“Do you think he will let go of it after he has finished doing all things?” asked Stella again.
“Probably he can.”
Stella was silent for a moment. Then she continued, “I got it. I will make time to talk to Chan.”
Clarence said indifferently, “Those thoughts had already rooted and sprouted in his heart. Your
conversation might not work.”
“I have to try anyway.”
Clarence pulled her into his arms, “All right. Your question time is up. Let’s go to bed.”
Stella nestled her head on his chest in silence.
People were always like this - they could always see the nature of other people’s matters.
However, when facing their own matters, they couldn’t convince themselves at all.
That was why a bystander saw through everything.
...
After Channing drove Winnie home, Winnie got down. She said, “Hurry up and go home. It’s almost
dawn.”
Channing gripped the steering wheel and turned to look at her, “Will your drive come back tomorrow?”
Winnie didn’t understand what he meant. She nodded and answered, “Yes, he will.”
Channing didn’t say anything else, “See you tomorrow.” He started the engine.
Winnie waved at him, “See you tomorrow. Be careful when driving home.”
After that, she turned to walk into the community.
Channing gazed at her receding figure for a long time. Then he drove away.
As soon as Winnie walked out of the elevator, she saw the man waiting at her door. She frowned, “Why
are you here again?”
The man put off the cigarette in his hand, “I’ve asked the program team. Your filming finished a long
time ago. Why are you back so late?” he asked.
“None of your business.”
As Winnie spoke, she was about to unlock the fingerprint lock.
The man grabbed her arm and said, “Winnie, please give me one more chance, OK? I’ve divorced her
already. I didn’t mean to hurt you back then. I didn’t know she would be so crazy...”
Winnie looked at him expressionlessly, “I have no interest in your family business. Please leave. Or I’ll
call the police.”
The man snorted, “If you want the topic that you and I went to the police station together at night to go
on the trends, I don’t mind.”
Winnie frowned more deeply, “What is wrong with you?”
“Yes, I’m sick. Do you know how I spent my past few years? I’ve been thinking about you all day long. I
also wondered what was wrong with me.”
“You should go to the hospital instead of coming to me.”
The man said, “I know Conrad Group has given you a lot of resources in the past two years. I always
met Clarence Conrad. Between you and the interest, which one do you think is the most important?
Besides, many newcomers enter the entertainment business every year. There are so many young and
pretty actresses. Do you think Conrad Group will never make others popular?”
Winnie said calmly, “I don’t mind who Conrad Group wants to make popular. You can go to talk to Mr.
Conrad as you like. You can ask him to ban me. I don’t mind. But please leave. Now!”
The man slightly squinted, “Think you can fight against me just because you are a bit famous, huh? In
the entertainment business, you’ll be doomed when I moved my fingers.”
“Just do it. What are you waiting for?”
Seeing that his hard and soft tactics didn’t work, the man was angry. He rudely pulled Winnie’s arms,
“Are you playing cool with me? You know what. Even I fuck you here today, no one can do anything to
me. You won’t get rid of the scandal as a few years ago.”
Winnie slapped him across his face violently. She laughed in anger, “Good! Let’s die together!”
The man probably didn’t expect her movement. He was taken aback for a few seconds.
Right then, the door of the elevator was opened.
A figure showed up in front of them.
When the man was in a daze, Winnie instantly withdrew her hands. Then she turned around and pulled
up the collar that slid to her shoulder during the fight.
The man’s face darkened. He wanted to blow up, but there was a stranger.
He wanted to wait after the young man left and get even with Winnie.
Much to his surprise, the young man walked towards them directly.
Channing stood in front of Winnie and pulled out something from the pocket of his trousers, “You’ve
forgotten your lipstick in my car,” he said.
Winnie reached out and took it over, pressing her lips slightly, “Thank you. Hurry up and go home.”
Obviously, she didn’t wish him to meddle in.
The man looked at them meaningfully, “What’s your relationship?” he asked.
Winnie snapped in a cold tone, “None of your business. Get out of here!”
The man laughed weirdly. After tidying up his collar, he turned around and walked into the elevator.
After he left, Winnie randomly put the lipstick into her purse. She said, “Chan, it’s quite late. Be careful
when driving.”
Chan nodded.
Winnie pressed the fingerprint lock again. She walked in quickly and closed the door.
Channing withdrew his gaze and strode away.
Downstairs, the man was smoking while leaning against his car. Seeing Channing coming out of the
apartment building, he asked with interest, “Are you a new actor from Winnie’s agency? It’s so late
now, but you deliberately came to her apartment to give her the lipstick. What’s your intention?”
Channing didn’t answer, striding forward him.
The man clicked his tongue and continued, “Winnie is good-looking with a nice shape. She’s quite good
in bed. No wonder a young man like you would be so obsessed. Just...”
Before he finished speaking, Channing threw a punch on his face.
The man was hit off-guard. The next second, he was pressed on the ground. Channing continuously hit
his face and body with his fists.
The man couldn’t fight against such a desperate attack at all, only letting outcries in pain.
Finally, the security guards from the community found what was happening. Several of them came over
and pulled Channing away.
The man covered his face, making a call excitedly.
Channing, however, was standing there with a gloomy look. He gazed at the man coldly and
threatened, “I dare you to find her again.”
“Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that?”
“I’m nobody. My life is worthless, but you should be reluctant to die,” said Channing.
