Chapter 523: Chapter 523

In the afternoon, when Stella saw that it was almost time, she left Steward Group and was prepared to go to the airport.

But she didn’t expect to see a man leaning against the Rolls Royce not far away when she just walked downstairs. His posture was casual and he looked calm, looking in her direction.

Stella was stunned. She didn’t realize what was going on for a moment. She subconsciously ran towards Clarence and jumped into his arms, hugging him tightly.

Although from last night until now, everyone was telling her that Clarence was safe, she still felt worried and uneasy.

At that moment, he was standing in front of her. She hugged him and could feel his body heat.

She wasn’t dreaming.

Clarence reached out and wrapped his hands around her body. He said in a low voice while smiling, “Do you miss me so much?”

Stella hugged him a bit tighter. She choked uncontrollably as she said the words, “I thought that I can’t see you again.”

Clarence gently patted her back and comforted her, “I’ll be there anytime as long as you want to see me.”

Stella said in a sobbing tone, “I...wanted to go to pick you up...”

“I have come here early. I know you can’t wait to see me. That’s why I am here to meet you.”

Stella didn’t retort. She really wanted to meet him very much. She wanted to see him as soon as he got off the plane.

Clarence rubbed his head, “For the sake it took me so long to come back, can you get off early and let’s go enjoy tonight?”

Stella nodded her head, “Okay.”

Donald had been guarding Stella at Steward Group and she was not in a good mood to do her work at the moment. She felt like she was only wasting her time to stay there.

Clarence pulled open the side door and moved his head in the direction of the car, “Get in.”

On the way back, Stella leaned on Clarence’s shoulder. She felt relaxed after being nervous for a long time and fell asleep after a while.

Clarence wrapped his arm around her and let out a soft sigh of relief.

If something had happened to her while he was away, he might go crazy.

Stella had a sound sleep and when she woke up, she was already in her bedroom in the apartment. It was already dark outside.

Lying beside her on the bed, Clarence was sleeping and having a steady breath.

Stella looked at him quietly for a while from the side. She kissed him on his thin lips and gently lifted the quilt to get up.

Stella walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. She noticed that there were no more ingredients inside.

During these days in which Clarence was not around, Stella always had simple diets and didn’t go to the supermarket.

Stella looked at the time. In the morning, Chan told her that he would come over in the evening. She thought that he should be here in a moment.

She didn’t want to go out either. She sat on the sofa and ordered some food.

After about ten minutes, the doorbell rang.

It was Chan who arrived.

Stella opened the door and saw that Channing’s clothes were a little wet. Therefore, she asked, “Is it raining outside?”

Channing said, “It's just sprinkling.”

“Come in first.”

After finishing her words, Stella turned around and went into the bathroom. She took a towel out and gave it to Channing.

Channing took it and looked around the house, “Hasn’t Clarence come back yet?”

Stella said, “He’s sleeping.”

Channing was silent before saying, “What happened last night?”

“No...nothing.”

Stella knew that if she didn’t tell Channing the truth, he would still be worried.

Therefore, she told him the whole story.

After listening to her words, Channing frowned.

Stella went to pour water for him, “Well, it’s over now. I’m fine now. You don’t need to worry.”

Channing said, “What about Clarence?”

Stella paused, “I don’t know. I haven’t had time to ask him yet.”

As she just finished her words, Clarence came out of the bedroom and looked at Channing with weary black eyes that displayed a sense of dissatisfaction.

Clarence sat on the sofa and spoke unhurriedly, “Why are you here?”

Channing said, “Nothing.”

With that, he told Stella, “I’m glad that you are fine. Then I will leave first.”

Stella said, “Hey, let’s eat together before you leave. It’s still raining outside, isn’t it?”

“Never mind. I will take a taxi to leave first.”

Stella chased after him and took an umbrella from the foyer and gave it to him, “Take this umbrella with you, or else you might catch a cold,”

After Channing left, Stella closed the door. She walked towards Clarence and said in a soft voice, “Why were you like that? Channing rarely comes here.”

Clarence leaned back on the sofa, pressing his finger against the temples. He smiled and raised his eyebrows slightly, reaching out and pulling her in his arms, “At this time, isn’t he the third wheel if he stays here? He is quite smart to realize what is going on.”

Stella was speechless.

She sat on Clarence’s lap and felt that his body was a bit hot. Therefore, she reached out and touched his forehead and then touched her own as well, “Are you catching a cold?”

Clarence made a low muffled sound, “A bit.”

“Have you taken your medicine?”

“Haven’t.”

At first, Stella wanted to get up and bring him medicine. But then, she remembered that he hadn’t eaten anything yet, so it was better to wait until he had eaten later.

Clarence said, “Did they make you in trouble last night?”

Stella shook her head, “No, the people are your brother’s subordinates. He also just wants to protect you...”

“Donald told me on the phone. I know.”

Stella added, “Then is there anything we can do now to turn things over?”

Clarence said indifferently, “In two days, it will be the BOD meeting of the Steward Group.”

“What are they trying to do during this BOD meeting?”

“Since they got the shares of Steward Group from me, they will definitely let everyone know about it. Therefore, this BOD meeting is the most suitable time for them to announce the news. I guess Master Conrad should intend to let Justin take the shares and become part of Steward Group. In this way, as long as I don’t object, there is no point for others to do so.”

The way that Master Conrad tried to make Justin become part of Steward Group was undoubtedly the smartest no matter which perspective one was looking it from.

No matter what means they used to get it, but if it was Justin who was forced to take on this matter, Clarence would definitely not be as ruthless as he was when he treated Master Conrad. He would respect Justin a lot.

That was why they had the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Stella tentatively spoke, “Then ... will you object it?”

Clarence smiled, “They are trying to make Justin take on this matter. It’s right. I won’t do anything to him.”

“But Justin is also forced to do it. He has no interest to work in Conrad Group. If he is the one who becomes part of Conrad Group, it is just Old Master Conrad trying to do what he wants in Justin’s name.”

Clarence wrapped his arms around Stella’s waist, putting his chin on her shoulder. He said slowly, “Things won’t go until this stage.”

Stella didn’t understand his words, “What do you mean?”
