Chapter 480: Chapter 480

Everything went smoothly as Emmett and Daniel were there. They got a burial ground prepared beforehand.

After cremation, the ashes would be buried in the burial ground by the workers.

On the way home, Stella called Channing. She then sent him the address of the grave and then leaned on the car window. She stared outside quietly.

Sherry asked softly, “Stella, are you okay?”

Stella smiled, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I’m used to this.”

Sherry sighed silently. She tapped Stella’s shoulder, trying to comfort her. She didn’t know what to say.

After a while, the car stopped.

Stella reorganized her thoughts and took a deep breath. She was about to open the car door, but someone opened it from outside.

She looked up and looked at the person standing outside the car in surprise, “Why are you here?”

Clarence leaned forward and grabbed her hand that was hanging mid-air, “How could I not be here for something so important?”

Stella pursed her lips. She got out of the car.

Daniel called her and she was soon on her way to the appraisal center. On the way, she messaged Clarence about this.

But he never replied. She thought he was in a meeting and wasn’t expecting to see him.

She got out of the car and noticed that Cameron was there as well. He had a walking stick with him and stood afar with a grim look on his face.

Daniel probably told him about it already.

Stella looked around, there was no one else.

Clarence knew what she was thinking. He held her shoulder and said, “Let’s go.”

The sky turned dark, and it started to rain.

Stella stood in front of the grave. She lowered her eyes.

Clarence stood next to her, holding an umbrella.

After a while, Channing arrived as well.

He didn’t walk up to the grave, he just stood quietly and watched from afar. His handsome facial features were being clouded by the misty weather, one couldn’t tell how he was feeling.

Many came, but nobody talked during the whole funeral.

After the tomb was sealed, Cameron sighed deeply, “It had been so many years, Miranda could finally rest in peace.”

Clarence said, “It’s not that simple.”

Cameron looked at him and grimaced, “What do you mean?”

“After the explosion that year, what else happened? Why was she there for such a long time? Why didn’t she ask for help? Why did she marry Jeffrey and why was she killed by him? There are so many questions but there are no answers.”

Cameron gripped his walking stick, he frowned deeply and didn’t say anything.

Clarence continued talking, “Jeffrey is the only one who knows the answer to these questions.”

Daniel said, “We used every trick on the book to make him talk. Even if he said something, he was just spouting lies. None of what he said was true.”

Clarence said, “That’s because he knew that that way, he would still have value and you guys wouldn’t kill him off so soon.”

“Do you know how to make him talk then?”

“I don’t know.”

Everyone was speechless.

Stella grabbed his sleeve, signaling him to not talk about it anymore.

Clarence grabbed her hand in return and said, “I just wanted to remind everyone that this isn’t over yet, it’s not that simple. We shouldn’t let our guard down.”

Emmett stayed silent for a while, he then said, “Everything was brought up by Lyndon. He went into hiding now, but as long as we spent some effort, searching for him was just a matter of time. Are you saying that...”

“If this is part of his plan, then yes.”

Cameron said, “You mean that Lyndon had accomplices for what happened back then?”

Clarence said, “It’s just a guess from my side. You guys know Lyndon quite well and have already searched the possible areas that he would be at.

And we have people shriveling the place constantly. Under this circumstance, Lyndon couldn’t possibly run away unless someone hid him on purpose.”

Cameron said, “We thought of this, but we checked everyone who got in touch with him and still couldn’t find anything.”

“He knows that you guys are looking for him. Of course, he won’t be hiding in places that you guys can think of.”

Daniel asked upon hearing what Clarence said, “So, Mr. Conrad, do you think that the person hiding him is someone who has no contact with Lyndon on the surface but has to help him for some reason? And the reason was most probably related to the incident 20 years ago?”

“Maybe.”

They were all just guessing baselessly, they had no evidence.

It went quiet again.

At this moment, Stella said softly to Clarence, “I want to go to a place. Can you go with me?”

Clarence looked at her and said, “Okay.”

Stella bowed slightly at Cameron and said her goodbyes. She then walked up to Channing and Sherry, “Sherry, Chan, let’s go.”

Channing nodded and glanced at the grave one more time. He then left with Stella.

Sherry turned around and met Daniel’s eyes accidentally. Her scalp felt numb, she quickly left.

They got outside and Stella halted in her tracks, “Sherry, I want to go somewhere. Can you send Chan back to school for me?”

Sherry wanted to say something but Channing got ahead of her, “Are you going to see Jeffrey?”

“Even though he has been lying the whole time, I want to ask again since we know more about the incident now.”

“I want to come with you.”

Stella shook her head, “No.”

Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again Channing frowned, “But...”

Stella said, “Clarence will go with me. You should go back to school.”

Channing wanted to say more but Sherry was already grabbing his shoulder and trying to shove him into the car, “Listen to your sister, don’t think about this too much. Jeffrey is an ass... Jeffrey doesn’t say nice things, it’s good that you don’t go.”

Jeffrey wasn’t a nice person, but he still was Chan’s father. Sherry swallowed the word “asshole” that she was about to blurt out.

Stella smiled at Channing, “Don’t worry, I’m just going to ask some questions. I will give up if he doesn’t want to say anything.”

Channing pursed his thin lips, he looked away and got into the car.

Sherry waved at Stella, “Stella, we’ll be leaving.”

Stella nodded, “Okay.”

They got into the car that Stella took to get here just now.

After the car drove away, Clarence grabbed Stella’s hand and said, “Let’s go.”

On the car, Stella asked, “Do you know something that I don’t?”

“What?”

“The things you were saying today. You never mentioned them to me. But then you suddenly said it all out. You must have some new information.”

Clarence’s hands were on the steering wheel, he answered, “I don’t know, it’s just that...”

Stella asked, “Just what?”

“I realized a problem.” He squinted his dark eyes and his voice turned frigid, “The year the Steward family got into trouble was the year that Justin got into a car accident. And that year, the Conrad family took me in.”

Stella’s eyes were open wide upon hearing what he said. She looked at him in disbelief.
