Prev Chapter Next Chapter

At the same time, things happened in the Steward Group.

Nathan knocked on the President's office door and hurriedly walked in. "Mr. Conrad, I just got news that

the assistant of Young Master Justin has been released."

Clarence's hand holding the pen stopped writing and he slowly looked up. With a cold expression, he

said, "When did this happen?"

"Just... half an hour ago, it is said that the real murderer went to the police office and confessed his

crimes. Harris... went through the 48-hour trial and was released."

Hearing that, Clarence leaned back and gently knocked on the table with the pen in his hand. Nathan

could not get his emotions.

Nathan continued, "I've already sent a person to the police station to check on the situation. He'll

soon..."

Clarence said lightly, "Harris is now Justin's most capable assistant and the person that Mrs. Conrad

chose for him. Harris summons by police have been spread on line. No matter what the reason is,

Justin will help him out."

Nathan got it immediately. "I'll go and find out who took all his crimes."

Clarence replied with a nod and picked up an invitation card on the table. No one knew what he was

thinking.

Nathan said tentatively, "Mr. Conrad, this is a banquet with dangers. Don't go."

In the morning, Conrad Group sent the invitation card.

Half a month later, Conrad Group would host a sea cruise banquet. At that time, Conrad Group would

give an appropriate answer and a reasonable solution to the query on the Internet.

Conrad Group sincerely invited all the cooperative companies to attend.

The ship would sail around the New Coast project.

Clarence sneered. "If I'm not going, who is he holding this banquet for?"

Nathan was speechless for a moment.

Just as he was about to leave, he answered a phone call from Maxwell, telling him that Adolph had

been taken away.

Nathan turned his head and looked a little serious. "Mr. Conrad..."

Clarence's face was slightly tense. "I heard you talking."

Nathan put away his mobile phone. He didn't need to check who the scapegoat was. The man was

obviously Adolph Miller.

At the same time, there was news on the Internet.

The police caught a vicious murderer.

He committed many crimes, such as the mastermind behind all the rumors in the Conrad family, the

real murderer of the designer Arthur Barnett, the real arsonist of Ms. Radomil's studio, even the murder

of Chassell Barret in the hospital, and so on.

As for the president's assistant of the Conrad Group, he just happened to pass by. He heard the noise

and came to check, so there was a misunderstanding with Winnie.

After the report was in public, public opinion online was even more one-sided.

Compared to the president's assistant of the Conrad Group, they felt that a person like Adolph, who

had committed great sins, must be the perpetrator.

Clarence quickly scanned the news on his phone and stood up. He took his jacket and left the office,

saying, "It's impossible for Adolph to willingly to replace Justin. Keep an eye on the police because they

might kill him."

Nathan nodded, "I'll go and deal with it now."

After getting out of Steward Group, Clarence got in the car and drove straight to Stella' studio.

In the studio, Stella poured Catrina a glass of water and said, "It's no longer safe there. You'd better not

go back recently. You'd better stay at your friend's house for a while."

Catrina took the water and gave a wry smile. "How could someone like me have any friends... Stella,

don't worry. I understand. I will find a hotel to stay for a few days."

Stella nodded gently. After a pause, she asked, "Where are the others?"

Catrina gives a wry smile. "Those who are still alive have probably fled."

Stella was about to say something when Sherry knocked on the door and called her, "Stella..."

Stella said to Catrina, "Wait a minute."

When she came out of the office, she closed the door and stood in front of Sherry. "What's wrong?"

Sherry pointed inside and asked, "What's going on?"

Stella breathed a sigh of relief and said, "She is Adolph's friend. Adolph... had an accident."

Sherry knew that Adolph was not a bad person, and he had helped Stella a lot. So according to Stella'

character, if something happened to Adolph, she would not sit by and watch.

But...

Sherry took her hand and said, "Stella, don't forget that you are still pregnant. As for Adolph, you..."

Stella smiled, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"That's good."

Stella said, "Did Daniel call you to talk about last night?"

Speaking of that, Sherry's face turned slightly red. "Just now, he said that he had talked to your father

and sent me the address of the restaurant for this evening, but I still feel very nervous..."

Then, she said, "Stella, why don't you come with me?"

Stella was stunned. "Me?"

Sherry nodded. "Look, Daniel is William's adopted son and William is your father. No matter what, you

are a family. It is right and proper for you to go."

Stella was silent because it seemed to make sense.

Sherry took a deep breath. "Alright! Tonight, let's..."

"She's busy."

A man's voice sounded at the door of the quiet office.

Sherry's neck was stiff and she turned around. When she saw who it was, she instantly gave up.

"Alright, I'll go."

...

After Sherry slipped away quickly, Stella looked at Clarence and asked in surprise, "Why are you

here?"

Clarence said with emotions, "It's about Adolph Miller."

Stella was stunned. "You knew?"

Clarence replied with a nod and said, "It has something to do with Justin. Leave it to me."

Stella' lips moved slightly. She thought that it was expected.

After a long while, she finally asked, "Why did Justin do that?"

"Harris was released. Adolph was the scapegoat."

Stella frowned. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

Catrina said that Adolph obviously had a chance to escape and but was taken away in order to protect

them.

Was that the reason why he came to the police station and admit his guilt?

No...

Catrina had mentioned that the people who were still alive had already fled.

Even if Adolph had been threatened by them, he would only be threatened in the underground casino.

With his skills, he had many chances to escape along the way.

However, he did not escape. Instead...

Stella said, "It's impossible for Adolph to promise Justin. There must be another reason..."

Clarence said, "Nathan has already gone to investigate. There will be messages soon."

Stella leaned against the wall and lowered her head slightly, letting out a long breath.

Clarence knew what she was thinking and pulled her into his arms. "Don't think anymore. Leave it to

me, okay?"

Stella put her hand gently on his waist, raised the corner of her mouth. She said softly, "I see. I

promised you that I would take good care of our baby."
