Stella only spoke after a long while, “Well, Chan, like you said just now, he won’t have the guts to show up. What he wants is just money and he won’t post any threat on me. Don’t worry about me. Moreover, I’m doing well now.”
Channing didn’t reply, his face still cold.
He said after a long while of silence, “I will find him out.”
Stella shook her head, “Chan, don’t get yourself involved in this matter. I will deal with it.”
Channing replied, “You don’t have to worry about my feelings. He’s not a father in my heart. He’s just a scumbag. I wish so much that he has died.”
Stella heaved a sigh, “Chan…”
“I know what I should do. As for you…” Channing continued, “Well. Clarence will protect you.”
Stella, “…”
She asked tentatively, “How do you know?”
Channing replied, “Isn’t it obvious?”
Stella didn’t say anything again.
After Channing’s leaving, Stella sat back on the sofa and hugged a cushion.
Sherry sat, “My bad. If I have expected this, I would not have told Channing about this. He must be so sad now.”
Stella said, “He will know about it even if you don’t tell him.”
“Will Jeffrey come to find you again?”
“Of course he will.”
Jeffrey didn’t get the money from her today, so he would come to find her again.
Sherry furrowed her brows, “But he still keeps those photos. What if he loses patience and publishes those photos?”
Stella replied lightly, “It depends on whether he wants the money or wants to ruin me at the cost of his life.”
“Stella.”
Noticing the worries in Sherry’s tone of voice, Stella turned to look at her and smiled at her, “Look at your expression. Don’t worry. I’m alright. I’ve been accustomed to it over the years. Sincerely, I felt relaxed when I knew that Jeffrey was the one behind all those things. At least I know what he wants. If it were the other person, maybe I will be sleepless tonight.”
Sherry heaved a long sigh. She didn’t know how to comfort Stella now.

At the same time…
