Archer thought for a while, and said seriously, “You now have no choice but to trust me. Because I am the only one
that can cure him.”
Hearing the words, Stella bit her lips gently, and her hand on the crib was tightly clenched.
“I know that you can hardly accept everything that has happened recently at this moment. But now you should
already know that all these things are manipulated by someone behind all of this, including the nutrition needles.
We believe that they are responsible for that.”
Archer continued, “If we want to hurt this child, why bother to get him to Riverside? We can leave him to you in City
N.”
“I think the reason you bring us here is that you can threaten Clarence with his child in your hand, am I right?”
Archer was taken aback, and suddenly realized, “Damn, we could have thought about this strategy earlier!”
Stella got speechless, “...”
Archer raised his hand, “I was just joking, joking, but you can think carefully about my words and decide whether it
makes sense.”
Stella looked at him, “I can trust you, but I have a problem.”
“I am listening...”
“Do you have anything to do with Clarence?”
Archer was taken aback for a moment. He was a little surprised, probably because he didn't expect her to ask that
way.
Stella slowly said, “As Darnell said, the whole thing is someone’s frame against you. So why would they shift the
blame to you? Why do they choose Riverside, a city that is thousands of miles away from City N?”
“Well...”
“As long as you can answer this question for me, I can trust you and keep the child here.”
Archer coughed and answered with a serious face, “I have not figured out this question yet. Maybe I am so good
that some people are simply jealous of me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella looked away speechlessly, “I'm sleepy, and now you can go out.”
Archer hurriedly said, “Come on, you guys are really making a lot of trouble now. If you don't agree, I will be
scolded. I will be in a bad mood when I am being scolded. In that case, I may not have the energy to give decent
medical treatment to the little fellows.”
Stella didn’t change her mind.
Just as Archer was thinking about what else he can do, the door of the lounge was pushed open again, and Darnell
walked in.
Archer got up immediately.
Darnell glanced at him, “How can you fail such an easy job?”
“I'm not good at dealing with women. Besides, you are the one assigned me here.”
After saying this, Archer slipped away immediately.
Darnell said, “The question you had just asked, I can answer you. However, I also have one condition.”
Stella looked at him but didn't speak for a moment. She was really considering the bargain.
Darnell did not give her the chance to consider, and continued, “Just swear on your son, you can't say a word about
what I told you tonight. Otherwise, his illness will never be cured.”
Stella frowned, “You...”
Darnell interrupted her, “This is just the consequence of your failure to keep your promise. You keep this secret and
nothing will happen.”
Stella said coldly, “Why should I make such a boring promise to you? No matter what the secret is, I will not swear
on my child for such bargain.”
Darnell didn't expect her to say that, looking surprised with his eyebrows lifted.
After a while, he said, “It was that thing that happened twenty years ago. As for how much truth Clarence can find
out, it is his business and has nothing to do with me.”
Stella was stunned, “Twenty years ago, then you...”
“I have finished what I need to say, you make your own choice.”
After Darnell finished speaking, he didn't stay any longer. He left the lounge without looking back.
Stella looked at the closed door and let out a long sigh.
She didn't expect that Riverside would be involved in the famous incident twenty years ago.
Clarence said twenty years ago, there was someone behind Lyndon Steward and they assisted him in the shadow.
Justin's car accident may also be related to these people.
But at that time, Darnell should have been about ten years old, and this could not have been planned by him.
Was it the James family?
The original purpose of coming to Riverside this time was to find the cure of the little guy’s illness and to find out
the connection between Riverside, the Conrad family and Joanna. But before she could have any clue, the thread
had already led to the incident twenty years ago.
If the explosion and car accident happened 20 years ago were done by the James family, then the James family and
the Conrad family, including Joanna, were all their enemies. Then why would they help Joanna?
If the incident weren't conducted by them, what did it have to do with them? Why do those behind the scenes point
all the evidence to Riverside?
Stella felt that her head was about to explode.
She couldn't figure it out at all and didn’t even understand the relationship between those shreds of evidence.
Stella rubbed her temples, feeling that her mind went all blank.
However, what Archer said is rational. If they really intend to take advantage of her and her child, why would they
bother to take them to Riverside?
Riverside is under the control of the James family. Even if Clarence comes over, he can’t use all his connection and
power. Staying here for a while and trying to rescue them was his extreme, and he can't leave everything in City N
alone.
It won’t take a long time before he had to return to City N.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo, in fact, the assumption that they use his child to threaten him can’t actually work out.
More importantly, Darnell seemed unwilling to confront him head-on.
Otherwise, they won't stay in the darkness for so long.
Besides, if they want to part her from the little guy, it's actually very simple easy.
But the most unbelievable thing was that Archer and Darnell ran over to reason with her and try to persuade her.
Darnell came to her with no pleasing word, but it was also obvious that he didn't intend to hurt her nor the little guy.
Stella put her head on the crib, dazing...
After a long time, she relaxed her eyes and got up to check out the cute sleeping little guy.
The rash on his body has all gone away, and he had already taken the milk as usual amount without vomiting.
It's much better than the condition in City N.
After a while, Stella leaned down, lowered her head and kissed his forehead lightly, “Baby, mom will come and pick
you up very soon.”
The sleeping little guy seemed to sense something, and his little mouth smashed.
A lump came into her throat. Tears soaked the corners of her eyes.
She has never been a qualified mother, neither before nor now.
But her wish is also very simple, she just hopes that he can survive and grow up safely and healthily.
Even if this would cost everything she had, she is willing to do it.
...
Getting out of the lounge, she found Archer was waiting there. He said in surprise, “Eh, are you crying?”
Stella sniffed and looked away, “No!”
“Come on, I see your eyes are all red... Oh, don't worry about it, he will definitely get better with my treatment.”
Stella went silent before saying, “When can I see him again.”
“Well, I'm not sure, you should ask Darnell. But as soon as the treatment makes progress, I will definitely notify
you!”
Stella said numbly, “With an email?”
Archer patted his head, “I'll take you to get your phone now. It's in my car.”
