Banging his crutch on the ground, Dempsey pulled a long face, âYouâve been making a fuss here for the whole afternoon. What the hell do you want to do?â
Clarence replied nonchalantly, âArenât you clear of what I want to do?â
âIâm not clear of it! What I know is just that you become more and more unruly! You broke into the house with many of your men without even informing me. Do you want to be a laughing stock of the whole city?â
âLaughing stock?â Clarence sneered, âThe things you did are actually laughing stocks.â
Dempsey didnât deny it since Clarence had known about the truth. âWhat I did is good for both you and the Conrad family!â retorted Dempsey.
Clarence replied, âRest assured. When you pass away, I will put your spirit tablet into the ancestral hall of our family. I want you to see how the Conrad family is gradually doomed because of your delicate plans.â
Dempsey cursed furiously, âYou... What an unfilial son!â
âArenât you accustomed to it since Iâve always been like this?â
Dempsey suppressed his anger and snorted coldly, âIâve expected this. Youâve been disobedient since childhood. The most regretful thing in my life is to bring you back to the Conrad family.â
âItâs true that it doesnât feel good to push yourself into hell.â
Dempsey withheld his furiousness and continued, âNow that this is the case, I should make it clear with you now. You know what I want. That kid is a descendant of the Conrad family after all, so I wonât harm him. On the contrary, I will give him everything and make him the heir of the Conrad family.â
Clarence remained silent and looked at him expressionlessly.
Dempsey continued, âBelieve me. You will not lose in this transaction. Heâs your son, so you will give him the Conrad Group in the future, right? Then whatâs the difference? Moreover, I can only live for several more years. When I die, he will only be several years old. You can take him back at that time. In this case, you can not only stabilize your status in the Conrad Group but also take control of the Conrad family effortlessly. Is there any disadvantage of doing so?â
Clarence said slowly, âYouâve done many evil things, yet you still think you can live for several more years?â
Dempsey was not angered. Instead, he chuckled, âYouâre still so young. If Iâm afraid of karma, I would not talk to you here today.â
âHavenât you finished your craps?â
Dempsey paused and then pulled a long face, âDrop that idea. I wonât allow you to take him away, unless on my dead body.â
Clarence curled his lips into a smirk, âAre you threatening me, or giving me the chance?â
Dempsey held his crutch, remaining silent.
Right at this moment, someone brought the unconscious Dolores out of the room.
Dempsey said without even turning around, âIf youâre willing to make a concession, I can make a compromise too. You can take her away. Otherwise, youâll not be able to see her for the rest of your life.â
Dempsey tried to find Dolores for todayâs situation.
It seemed like his decision was right.
Clarenceâs expression turned colder, yet he remained silent.
Dempsey said, âYou can make clear what is more important. Let me keep the child and I will give him the best life. But if you insist on taking him away, none of us will benefit. Your mother allowed me to take you back to the Conrad family before for the sake of your future. She didnât want you to stay in that place with her, which would curb your development. Her insights are more profound than yours.â
Clarence sneered, âSo this is the way how you threatened her before?â
âThatâs not a threat. Wise people always have a wise choice.â
âYes? But maybe I have to disappoint you.â
Clarence slightly raised his hand and the men who stood behind him immediately moved.
Dempseyâs expression turned serious. He didnât expect that neither the stick nor the carrot worked on Clarence.
He said furiously, âDo you know where you are now? Do you want to fight against me here?â
âYou forced me to do so.â
When Dempsey prepared to say something, he heard the cries of the baby from behind.
He hurriedly turned around, only to see the babysitter running out of the house with the baby in her arms, âThe baby keeps crying. I canât console him...â
Dempsey criticized her in a stern voice, âJust let it be. Why do you go out of the house? Go back!â
Before he could finish his words, Clarenceâs man had walked over and blocked the door.
The babysitter took two steps backwards and hugged the baby tightly in her arms.
Dempsey looked towards Clarence, âYouâd better not act rashly unless you want them to die.â
Clarence said, âIf they have an accident, the Conrad family will disappear in City N tonight.â
Dempsey tried to calm down himself. A while later, he spoke again, âConsider my proposal. As you said, I can live for just a few more years. Does it matter to you to wait for several years?â
âYouâre right. But why should I consider it? Since you can live for just a few more years, why canât you die tonight?â
Being irritated, Dempsey gritted his teeth and almost crushed his crutch.
This unfilial and unruly son!
Stella, who hid not far away, didnât have any mood to observe whether if they would find because her attention was all on the baby.
She felt that the babyâs cry was getting down.
She moved forwards. With the lights, she saw the scene more clearly. Stella uncontrollably widened her eyes.
When everyone was not paying attention to her, the babysitter secretly covered the babyâs mouth and nose.
The babyâs cry became so weak.
Seeing this, Stella gritted her teeth. Regardless of any possible consequences, she rushed over and snatched the baby into her arms when everyone was so shocked to react.
Being caught out of the guard, the babysitter only realized that someone had snatched the baby from her a while later.
However, when this happened, one of Dempseyâs men moved and a gunshot broke the silent night.

But the pain didnât hit her as she had imagined as someone had embraced her into his arms. At the next moment, a moan sounded near her ear.
The men in the surroundings all became nervous.
Dempsey banged his crutch on the ground, âStop! Who allows you to do that?â
Even if he wanted to get rid of Clarence, he would not choose this point. Moreover, the baby was still here. He wouldnât allow his efforts to be in vain.
Once they began to fight, Dempsey could by no means make up for it.
Holding the baby in her arms, Stella panted slightly. Breezes blew past her ears.
When she was clutched by fear, Clarenceâs voice sounded. âDid you get hurt?â
Stella subconsciously shook her head and then lowered her head to look at the baby.
The babyâs face had become red, but his cry became louder.
Stella, who had been worrying about the baby, finally felt relieved.
