Hearing the sound coming from the doorway, Stella looked toward the door.
Clarence walked beside her, “Has he eaten?”
“A little bit,” Stella said, “I had asked the doctor just now and the doctor said that if he still eats very little at noon,
then he will need to get the intravenous drip treatment.”
After a few seconds, Clarence talked, “I need to go to Riverside City in the afternoon, I have no idea of when I will
be back.”
Hearing of the words ‘Riverside City’, Stella was stunned, and she recalled what Donald had told her yesterday. The
things that had occurred recently, were probably done by those people from Riverside City.
Clarence had chosen to go there at this time, was it because…
Stella said, “Is his illness related to those people from Riverside City?”
Clarence nodded. Previously, he had investigated who was the driving force behind Joanna, now it could be seen
that it was most probably the James family.
He said, “Over the period when I’m not here, Maxwell will always protect you. About the Steward Group, Armand
and Logan are now in the prison already, so the biggest hidden danger is no longer there. I will let Francis help you
to manage all the matters temporarily, and Donald is also here. You can just stay in the hospital, don’t go
elsewhere.”
Stella looked at Noah who was in the bed, her voice didn’t reveal her emotion, “I know.”
Seeing this, Clarence took her into his arms and spoke in a low voice, “It will be fine, wait till I come back.”
“You must be careful.”
The corners of Clarence’s mouth curved up, he let her go and kissed her lips quickly when she was not paying
attention, then he turned and left.
Stella was speechless.
She turned her head, she saw that Noah was sitting on the bed and looking at her curiously. Then, it seemed like he
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas in good spirits, his little hands were shaking the toys and he was giggling.
Stella couldn’t stop herself from smiling, she stretched her hand and pinched his nose.
After a while, Sherry had come back, she said, “Stella, I saw that Mr. Conrad has gone out combatively just now, it
seems like he is going to get even with someone, where is he going?”
Stella said, “Riverside City.”
Sherry was curious, “Why does he go there?”
“It’s a bit complicated, I don’t know how to say, it’s because… Maybe Noah’s illness is related to them.”
Sherry was shocked, “Oh no, the Riverside City is so far away from City N, who the hell is so crazy to make this thing
happen to a child?”
Stella pursed her lips, her voice became cold, “Maybe it’s still related to Joanna.”
She should have known earlier that this thing wouldn’t end just because of the death of Joanna.
If not, Joanna wouldn’t have committed suicide so easily during that time.
Sherry insulted them intensely for a while, then she said again, “Then what shall we do now, when Clarence will be
back, can Noah’s illness be cured when he’s back?”
Stella shook her head, “I have no idea, just wait.”
Apart from waiting, she couldn’t do anything now.
Sherry sighed and looked at Noah on the bed, “Anyway, Stella, I can roughly understand Clarence’s thought during
that time when I see you today.”
Stella startled slightly, “What?”
“When Noah was born during that time, Clarence had concealed the truth and he didn’t want to tell you,” Sherry
said, “Have you looked into the mirror? Your eyes are always wet today, they are red and swollen all the time.
When I came here just now, I was scared when seeing that you were having a nightmare.”
Listening to these, Stella lowered her head and didn’t say anything.
When Noah was just born, his conditions might be even worse than now.
She had heard from Chan that Noah was always sent to the emergency room for rescue.
Some more, he was so small during that time.
Stella closed her eyes, she felt a bit sad.
Seeing this, Sherry was quick-witted, and she had changed the subject, “Stella, by the way, I’ve never heard of you
talking about your son’s name, what’s his name?”
Stella opened her eyes, she kept silent for a while, then she said, “Noah.”
She had given him this name when she was in City N.
She hoped that he would grow up safely and happily.
However, it seemed like this might not be the case at this moment.
Sherry read the name, then she suddenly said, “Noah, Noah Conrad, it sounds great.”
Stella was speechless.
It’s fine.
After a few minutes, the door of the ward was pushed open.
It was Daniel.
He said, “Ms. Radomil, I’ve heard of the things that had happened recently, what can I do for you?”
Stella pursed her lips gently, “Riverside City, can you help me to investigate the info related to this place?”
Daniel said, “Riverside City? Do you mean Darnell?”
“Who is Darnell?”
Daniel sat beside Sherry, “Darnell is the current head of the James family, all the outsiders addressed him as
Master of Riverside. But I’ve never met this person, I heard that he is quite cruel. He will eat human flesh, drink
human blood and gnaw the bones of a human.”
Stella was speechless.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSherry was speechless too.
The scene of a ferocious beast sitting in front of a gloomy dining table and ripping a bloody bone suddenly popped
into their heads.
A cold shiver ran down Sherry’s spine, she let out a hollow laugh, “Is… Is it so horrible?”
“Of course this is just a rumour. In short, he is not a man to be trifled with.” Daniel paused for a while, then he said,
“By the way, why are you asking me about this suddenly?”
Stella said, “The Conrad family… Nope, to be exact, shall be Joanna, perhaps she had kept in touch with the people
from Riverside City. The things that had happened recently, probably were all done by the people from Riverside
City, including… Noah’s illness.”
Daniel frowned, “Are you sure?”
Stella nodded gently, “Clarence has gone to Riverside City just now. No matter how far they have gone for, it can be
confirmed that these things are definitely related to them.”
“But from what I know, the James family will never step out from Riverside City, let alone to care about the things
that happen outside Riverside City. If what you’ve said is true, for what reason do they want to rack their brains and
travel for a long distance to create so many troubles at City N?”
Sherry said, “Isn’t it that Stella just said that they had kept in touch with Joanna? Perhaps they were having some
underhand deals. Joanna always didn’t like Clarence, even… Anyway, I think that those who had stayed in touch
with Joanna, are not good people. There must be some hidden purposes behind them!”
Stella pondered and said, “Is it because the James family wants to expand their power, so they have aimed the
Conrad family, thinking of replacing them?”
Daniel said, “This is the only reasonable explanation, Darnell won’t offend Clarence at this moment unless they
want to destroy and replace the Conrad family, then shift their power to City N.”
Stella didn’t understand, “This moment, at what moment?”
Daniel explained, “The previous head of the James family had passed away not long before, Darnell’s position is
actually still unstable.”
Sherry was curious, “Why?”
