Chapter 704: Chapter 704

They were about midway through the supper when Winnie received a call. She excused herself and walked to the balcony to answer it.

Elaine looked at her walk away and asked Stella quietly, “Is Winnie alright? That scoundrel...”

She was interrupted by a nudge. Elaine was surprised and glared at who was nudging her.

Channing looked at her nonchalantly and asked, “What?”

Elaine received the message not to probe further and continued to eat.

Stella said, “It’s okay, it’s all resolved.”

At this point, Winnie finished the call and came back. The atmosphere at the table seemed weird and she asked, “What... happened?”

Sherry clenched her fist and asked, “Is that bastard troubling you again? He is really unscrupulous!”

Winnie looked towards Channing and said, “He should not show up from today onwards.”

Stella continued, “Nathan had settled it.”

Winnie nodded, “Yes, it’s okay. Let’s continue.”

Sherry wanted to say something but noticed Stella’s side glance. She then looked towards Channing and kept her peace.

Winnie tried to change the topic and said to Stella, “I heard that Mr. Conrad spent a large sum to buy a ring. Is that the one on your finger?”

Sherry also said, “No wonder, I noticed that just now. It’s magnificent! Stella, can I have a look?”

Stella nodded, removed the ring and handed it to her.

Sherry marveled at it, “It’s so beautiful! How much is it?”

Winnie told her the number and Sherry was dumbfounded. Suddenly she felt that what she was holding weighed a ton and she didn't dare to hold it any longer.

Sherry quickly returned the ring to Stella and tsked, “Mr. Conrad is filthy rich! It’s almost thirty million dollars! I have never seen something so valuable in my life!”

Stella thought of something and smiled quietly.

After supper, Channing started to clear up the table and threw the take-out boxes into the trash bin. He would take the rubbish down later.

Stella coughed and looked towards Winnie, “Is your driver downstairs?”

“Yes.”

“Then can you help send Chan home?” Stella asked.

Before Winnie could answer, Channing said, “I’ll take a cab.”

Stella said, “How are you going to get a cab at this time? I’ll drive you back if you don’t want Winnie to send you.”

Sherry added, “Yes, listen to your sister. It’s dangerous for boys to be out at late night, especially for such a handsome guy like you. You’ll be in trouble if you meet a horny woman like me.”

Channing was speechless.

Winnie tried hard to hold back her laughter. “I know where he lives, I’ll send him back.”

Stella nodded, “Thanks.”

Channing picked up the rubbish and said, “Bye.”

Stella said, “Call me when you’re home, don’t go anywhere else.”

She took the opportunity that Winnie was distracted and whispered to Channing, “If you go look for Chassell again, I’ll have Clarence send men to keep an eye on you 24/7.”

Channing pursed his lips and did not respond.

The door opened and Winnie spoke, “Let’s go.”

Stella walked out with them and watched them enter the elevator, she turned to Elaine and said, “Go back and rest, it’s getting late.”

Elaine said, “Stella, did I said something wrong just now?”

Stella smiled and did not know how to explain this complicated issue. She assured, “No, go and have a rest.”

Elaine nodded, “Good night.”

She then turned towards Sherry and said, “Good night, Sherry.”

When they went downstairs, as Channing threw away the rubbish, Winnie said, “I’ve called the driver, he would be here soon. Let’s wait a while.”

Channing stood beside her and kept silent for a moment before asking, “What did he do to you?”

Winnie replied calmly, “Nothing, your sister and Mr. Conrad came in time. He could not do anything and was threatened by Mr. Conrad. He would not trouble me anymore in the future.”

“What happened before they arrived?” Channing persisted.

Winnie paused before saying, “The same as before. He said a whole lot of nonsense. I ignored him.”

Channing did not ask any further.

Very soon, Winnie’s car arrived. As Winnie was entering the car, she noticed that Channing placed his hand above her head to prevent her from hitting the top of the car.

Winnie was surprised but continued to enter the car. Channing followed suit and entered the car. Once they were in the car, Winnie told the driver Channing’s address.

Winnie and Channing did not speak along the way. It was quiet and tense.

After a while, the car stopped at the entrance of an apartment complex and the driver said, “We’ve arrived.”

Winnie looked outside and asked, “Is this right?”

Channing replied, “Yes.”

He exited the car, turned around, and noticed that Winnie got out of the car. Winnie gestured with her chin, “Go ahead.”

Channing looked back at her.

Winnie said, “Your sister asked me to send you home.”

Channing said, “And I'm home now.”

“I’m already here. Aren’t you going to invite me up for a drink?”

An Eight-year-old Princess Channing pursed his lips and remained quiet.

Winnie looked at him and said, “You said you lived here. Did you lie to me?”

“No.”

“Then what are you waiting for?” Winnie asked, Winnie began to walk into the compound. Channing was stunned and then quickly followed her.

The two of them walked on silently and Winnie was lost in her thoughts. Suddenly, Channing grabbed her wrist and said softly, “This way.”

Winnie looked up and followed him. Channing released her hand and walked up the staircase.

Winnie massaged her wrist. Perhaps the night was cool so she could feel his warmth lingering on her skin where he just held onto. She inevitably felt a tug on her heart.

At the apartment, Channing opened the door to enter. Winnie stood behind him and felt a rush of emotions within her. This was the first time she had gone to a single man’s place.

She was rather nervous.

Just as Winnie was taking a deep breath to calm down. Channing already opened the door and said, “Please come in.”

Winnie walked in and said, “Do you live alone?”

Channing nodded, “It’s a single suite.”

“That’s rather convenient.” Winnie said and then asked, “Do you have any extra bedroom slippers?”

Channing replied, “No, you may enter with your shoes.”
