When Dempsey heard his subordinate’s report, he knitted his brows tightly, “Where is she now?”
“She’s been taken back and is now in the side hall.”
Dempsey pondered for a while and then walked out with the support of his crutch.
In the side hall…
Being soaked to the skin, Amanda squatted at a corner, shivering all over. Her blood mingled with the rain,
converging on the ground.
Logan sat on a chair not far away from her. Although he was also wet, his condition was much better than
Amanda’s.
When hearing the footsteps from the door, Logan hurriedly stood up.
At the next moment, Dempsey appeared in the room.
After entering the room, Dempsey glanced over Amanda, banged his crutch on the group and asked unhappily,
“What’s going on?”
One of his subordinates immediately reported, “Master Conrad, we were negligent when watching him so that she
got the chance to run away.”
“You were so negligent that you didn’t even notice it when she ran out of the mansion?” Dempsey increased his
voice and hit his crutch on the ground with great force, “Is this your way of doing things?”
His subordinates all lowered their heads and remained silent.
Dempsey snorted coldly and walked towards Amanda, “Lift your head.”
Shivering, Amanda lifted her head and took a glance at him, and then she quickly lowered her head, wrapped her
arms tightly around her legs and bit her lower lip with great force.
Dempsey asked, “You tried to escape from this place at the risk for your life, yet you just wanted to report the
situation to Clarence? You wanted him to kill me?”
“I…” Amanda stammered, “I didn’t. I just wanted him to save Ms. Anderson and…”
“Save?”
Dempsey seemed to have heard a funny joke. “What’s the Conrad family in your eyes? That baby is a descendant
of the Conrad family, so this place is his home. How would Clarence designate such a foolish woman to take care of
the child? She can’t even distinguish what’s important and what’s not.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAmanda dared not to speak again, yet she shivered more violently.
Dempsey turned around and glanced over his subordinates, “A bunch of useless men. You can’t even finish such a
small task.”
When speaking, he walked towards the door as if he didn’t want to give a shit about such a trivial matter. He
instructed his men, “Originally she’s useless to us and it’s meaningless to keep her here. Now that she wants to run
away, just kill her.”
His subordinate received the order, “Okay.”
When Dempsey walked to the door, he suddenly turned around, looked towards Logan, and waved at him, “You,
come over.”
Logan walked towards him, “Chairman, do you have any instruction?”
Dempsey said in a deep voice, “You’ve done this admirably. I don’t know how to reward you. How’s this? I will
entrust you to deal with this matter. Be careful and don’t leave any trace.”
Logan was stunned for a while when he heard the words, “I?”
“What’s wrong? You don’t dare to do that?”
“Chairman, I don’t…”
Dempsey interrupted him, “Well, when you finish my task, you will be my man. Now that you can work for me for
money, you will work for the other person for money one day. I don’t trust you. Make a choice. You should either kill
her yourself, or else, both of you will have to stay here forever.”
Logan didn’t expect that Dempsey would suddenly turn his back on him.
But apparently, Dempsey was not negotiating with him. After fishing the words, he instructed his subordinates,
requiring them to keep an eye on Logan and Amanda, and then he left the side hall.
Logan knitted his brows and turned his head to look at Amanda. A trace of fierceness gradually gathered in his
eyes. He slowly walked towards Amanda.
…
Stella looked at the rain outside dully, seeming to be lost in her thought.
Donald waved his hand in front of her, “Are you watching at an airship?”
Stella was rendered speechless.
She withdrew her gaze and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Donald leaned against the sofa, “Come on, do you forget how important today is?”
Stella was a bit stunned, “What?”
“It’s Clarence’s birthday.”
“Oh, that’s true.”
She had to deal with many things recently, plus that Clarence was also busy these days, so she totally forgot his
birthday.
Donald asked, “Would you like to hold a party for him?”
Stella thought as Clarence seemed to be under high pressure recently and had been in a bad mood, maybe this
would be relieved if they held a party for him.
Stella took a glance at the clock, “It’s already five o’clock. Is the time enough?”
Donald chuckled, “You can achieve anything with money. Leave it to me. And you’re responsible for inviting
friends.”
Stella asked, “As for Clarence’s friends, I only know you and Vincent. I don’t know others.”
“It’s fine even if you don’t invite those people. I meant you should invite your friend. The more, the better. Invite
some single people as possible.”
Stella was bewildered.
Weren’t they planning to celebrate Clarence’s birthday? Why did she feel like they were arranging for a social
event?
Donald also realized that he had made his purpose apparent. He coughed, “It will be livelier if many people will take
part in the party. I just want to enliven the atmosphere.”
Stella twitched her lips. But at a second thought, she agreed with Donald’s words when thinking that Clarence
seldom had a birthday party in the past. Now that they planned to hold a party for him, it should not be cheerless.
With that thought, Stella sent messages to Sherry, Winnie and Channing.
If her guess was right, Daniel would probably come with Sherry, so she didn't have to invite them respectively.
After sending the messages, Stella stood up, “Have you booked the venue? Let me help you decorate it.”
“Don’t bother. Your task is to take Clarence there, and I will be responsible for other matters.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“All right. I will go to the Conrad Group now.”
When Stella walked downstairs, she bumped into Logan who was wet all over and looked messy.
Stella asked, “Didn’t you drive your car?”
Logan replied, “My…My car broke on the road and I had to walk in the rain for a distance. It’s raining heavily
outside. Ms. Radomil, are you going out?”
“Yeah. I have to deal with something.”
When seeing the red color on Logan’s right sleeve, Stella asked, “What happened to you?”
Noticing her gaze, Logan hurriedly covered his right hand, “Nothing. It’s just that I accidentally fell just now and my
skin was scratched.”
“Disinfect it.”
Stella left after finishing the words.
Logan put his hand into his pocket and quickly went upstairs.
When he walked to the office area, he rushed to the toilet and desperately scoured the bloodstains on the back of
his hand. Then he extracted some tissues, covered several tissues on his wound and then pressed it to prevent it
from bleeding.
When he returned to the office, he took out the medical kit, disinfected the wound on the back of his hand, applied
medicine on it and then wrapped it with gauze. He then opened the locked drawer and quickly rummaged for
something.
Under such a circumstance, he couldn’t stay here any longer. He must leave as soon as possible.
But the premise was that he couldn’t give Armand any reasons to threaten him before leaving.
Therefore, he must ruin Armand first.
After finding the document he wanted, Logan leafed through it and heaved a sigh of relief. He then took the
document to Samuel’s office.
He knew that Stella had been requiring Samuel to find out evidence of Armand’s crimes, but no matter how hard
they tried, they couldn’t get the key evidence.
Logan also knew that Samuel went out early in the morning.
As there was no surveillance camera in the vicinity, he just needed to secretly put the document into Samuel’s
office. Other people wouldn’t be able to find out his relationship with this matter, and Armand would be convicted
soon.
