Donaldâs last words sounded obedient and flattering and also made Dempsey look good.
Since the words had been said to this point, if he was still not allowed to go up, the Conrad family would be deemed diffident.
Dempsey withdrew his cane and said irritably, âGet lost immediately after taking a look.â
âThank you, Master Conrad.â
After Donald finished his words, he immediately ran up the stairs.
He searched room by room from the second floor to the third floor.
Meanwhile, he also had to make sure that no one secretly moved Stella to the room he had searched before.
After a while, there was only one room left.
When Donald was about to go in, the maid came forward to stop him, âMr. Shawn, this is Mrs. Conradâs room. You canât go in.â
Donald smiled, âIâm not going in, Iâll just take a look at the door, Iâm looking for someone.â
âEven so, you still canât do that.â
Donald touched his eyebrows and did not speak for a moment.
Being a junior, it was indeed not appropriate for him to barge into a female elderâs bedroom.
If Stella was inside there, it was still fine. But if she was not inside, not having to wait for the members of the Conrad family to fix him, his father would break his legs after he went back home.
However, he was sure that Stella must be in the house of the Conrad family now. This was already the last room.
Donald gritted his teeth. He did not care anymore and chose to try his luck.
Just when Donald was about to go in, the door of the bedroom was opened. Joanna who was wearing a nightgown looked at him coldly, âWhat are you doing.â
âMrs. Conrad...â
âWill you give it a rest, you surprisingly come to my place to find someone?â
Donald smiled bitterly, âI have no choice.â
Joanna said, âI really didnât realize before that the upbringing of the Shawn family is actually so outstanding.â
âYou can just scold me...â
âI donât have the time to scold you.â Joanna was with her arms folded, âBut since youâve come here to find her, if I donât let you take a look, I believe you wonât give up.â
As Joanna said, she stepped aside.
When Donald saw this and was about to go in, Joannaâs voice slowly sounded, âCould it be that you really want to visit my room? If sheâs really here, canât she hear you when you call her?â
Donald twitched his lips, âYouâre right, Iâm too rude.â
As he said, he increased the volume, âThen I wonât disturb you anymore, Iâll take my leave first. Iâll come to apologize to you personally two days later.â
After he finished, he deliberately dawdled outside the door for a few seconds while paying attention to the situation inside.
Joanna stared at him coldly and did not say anything as if she was wondering how long he intended to stay here.
Donald withdrew his gaze and met her eyes. He smiled apologetically and could only leave upon seeing that he really could not dawdle anymore.
After he left, Joanna glanced at the maid outside and the maid followed her.
In the room.
Stella was sitting on the sofa and Justin was opposite her.
Ten minutes ago.
When she had just thrown the things down, Justin appeared in the room.
During the whole process, he only said a sentence to her, âStella, trust me once, Iâll never hurt you.â
So, when Donald came to look for her, she did not make a sound.
Not only because that Donald could not take her away by himself, but she wanted to know what exactly the reason that they spent so much effort was and even persuaded Justin to act and bring her here.
She also understood what Donaldâs words meant just now. They would come back to find her again.
It was temporarily safe for her to stay here.
Joanna walked in, looked at Stella and snorted, âItâs good that you know how to behave yourself.â
Justin said, âItâs very late, you should rest, Iâll send Stella to her room.â
âJust ask the maid to do so, why do you have to do it personally.â
âI just want to do what I can do. Otherwise, Iâll really be a cripple who canât do anything.â
Joanna did not say anything more and just turned sideways.
Stella had now regained a majority of her strength. She directly followed Justin and left.
When they reached the second floor, Justin turned the door handle of the room and said gently, âThis is Clareâs room. You can stay here for the time being.â
As he said, he controlled the wheelchair to move forward, entered the room and switched on the light.
âAlthough he hasnât come back to stay for a long time, the room is cleaned every day.â
Stella said, âIâve done what you said. Could you tell me now what exactly you guys are doing.â
Justin turned to look at her and let out a silent sigh, âHave a seat first.â
...
Just after Donald left the house of the Conrad family, he received a call from Vincent.
Vincent said, âStella didnât go back, she must still be at the house of the Conrad family.â
âI know.â
âDonât tell me that youâve already left?â
âWhat else can I do, Iâve searched every room in the house of the Conrad family. If my father knows what I have done tonight, he will certainly kick me out of the house.â
Vincent was speechless.
Donald said, âWhat about Clarenceâs side, did you manage to contact him?â
âNo, but I just got the news that he will renegotiate the terms with the other party tonight and I donât know how is the negotiation going now. There is a time zone difference overseas so I canât contact him and the speed we get the news will be much slower.â
Donald frowned, âIt seems that weâve been fooled.â
âWhat?â
âRegarding the matter that Justin is injured, on the surface, it looks like the Conrad family is trying to make everyone aware of his existence but in fact, heâs just a bait.â He narrowed his eyes, âA bait that was deliberately thrown to us.â
Vincent kept silent for a while, âWithout the cooperation of that person, this absolutely canât be accomplished.â
âJustin.â
âYeah.â
Donaldâs fingers tapped on the steering wheel, âBased on the attitude of all members of the Conrad family, they no longer care about reputation. Itâs fine as long as they can cover up the lie.â
âBut I really donât get why would Justin help them.â
Vincent sighed, âStella probably had the same doubt as you so she chose to stay.â
The reason why he deliberately shouted so loudly at the door just now was meant to be heard by Stella.
If she wanted to leave, she could have made just a little sound.
But, she didnât.
Also, he had searched all the rooms but he still did not see Justin. This only showed that at that time, Justin was also in the room.

Since the matter in London is done by them and theyâve detained Stella, itâs only possible that theyâre trying to get him to agree to some terms.â
âNo matter what, there will be an outcome tonight.â
Vincent gave an um, âYou go back first. Iâll send someone to keep an eye on the Conrad family. As long as Stella is in the house of the Conrad family, we still have other ways.â
âBut we shouldnât just sit still and do nothing.â
âWhat do you want to do.â
Donald said, âThe matter that Stella disappeared after attending the reception of the Conrad family tonight has to be spread to the public. When the time comes, other than us, there will naturally be others to ask for an explanation from the members of the Conrad family. They will be capable enough to make the members of the Conrad family take quite a while to deal with them.â
