Stella felt dizzy as she woke up and the entire place felt strange to her.

She wanted to sit up but she had no energy at all.

Not only that, she couldn’t even speak.

At this moment, someone approached the door.

Stella shut her eyes in an instant.

The door was pushed open and a few people came in. She heard Dempsey’s voice, “When will she be awake?”

“The drug is light, she will be up soon,” Joanna said.

Dempsey grunted, “Can’t believe we need to do so much just to lure her here.”

“This is all because of your son.”

“Why would you mention that again?” Dempsey looked annoyed.

“Am I wrong?”

“Never mind, I don’t want to argue with you on this anymore.”

Joanna looked at Stella who was sound asleep on the bed, “I want to see to what extend Clarence would scarify for her.”

“Do as planned, don’t be reckless, it won’t do us any good to provoke him,” Dempsey said.

Joanna crossed her arms, “You want Conrad Group and I have things that I want too.”

“No matter what, do it step by step.”

After a pause, Dempsey added, “Donald is still downstairs, I better be there before he suspects anything.”

He then left with his cane.

Joanna said after he was gone, “Looks like it still needs some time before she wakes up, let’s go.”

Stella’s lashes trembled, who else was here?

The other party didn’t reply while Joanna continued, “Don’t feel guilty, they owe you this. I’m just trying to get you back what belonged to you, as long as Clarence collaborates, she could walk out of here safely.”

A man’s voice was heard after a long while, “Do we really need to take such measure?”

“Don’t you aware of the situation now? Did Clarence ever give us and the Conrad family a chance? He addresses you as a brother but did he really respected you? Justin, I know the Conrad Group is not important to you but you need to grab on to it just to be powerful,” Joanna explained.

Justin remained silent.copy right hot novel pub
