Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 860

At the Steward Group.

Clarence strode towards the elevator and said, “Tell Donald Shawn to see Channing and send someone to the hospital to ensure Chassell Barret is alive.”

Nathan Lance was following him and he just kept nodding.

Standing before the elevator, Clarence said in a cold voice, “Most importantly, all relevant information online should be blocked. Don’t let any videos, photos come out. I don’t want Stella to know it.”

Nathan said, “Mr. Conrad, before Channing called you, the thing has already gone viral online. It happened during the lunchtime and a lot pf people witnessed it on spot. They had taken a lot of videos which are now widely spread online ...”

It’s really difficult to prevent people from knowing it.

Clarence said in a low voice, “Do it at any cost.”

The moment he received the call from Channing, he knew something was wrong.

Chassell might be the only man who was able to provoke Channing to commit a crime.

Therefore, after the call to the police office, he instantly sent Nathan to get the information of Chassell.

And apparently, he had managed to get out of the jail.

On the way to the police office, Clarence sat on the back seat with a cold face, while Nathan was busy in dealing with the information online and giving phone calls.

But the thing just came in such an overwhelming way. It made its way to the twitter trends for several times before it was removed instantly.

Nathan turned back to say, “Mr. Conrad, I had just received an analysis. It says apart from normal internet users, there is also someone behind who kept putting the thing under the spotlight. So …”

It just kept receiving more and more public attention on the Internet.

Clarence opened his eyes and said in a calm voice, “Who do you think is behind it?”

Nathan fell into silence. He knew the answer, but he dared not reply.

It had just happened and they had informed all major media to block relevant information.

But the situation kept going worse.

There must be someone behind it.

And given that the one behind it knew it was Clarence who was trying to block any relevant information, he kept polarizing the discussion online. So, it must be someone as wealthy and powerful as Clarence.

And he was against Clarence, obviously.

Therefore, in City N, there was only one possibility.

Clarence said, “Stella has mentioned a name. You approach her and give her all the documents regarding the New Coast Project to her.”

Nathan said with his eyes wide open, “Mr. Conrad ...”

“Before you gave those materials to her, you should make it clear whether she dares to make it public or not. If she dares not, we will find someone else.”

Nathan still got much to say. But seeing Clarence closed his eyes again, he could only remain silent.

They had not made enough preparation for the case of the project. And they had not collected enough crucial evidence for it.

He knew Clarence would never start a war without preparation.

If the situation got worse, the other side may shift the blame to them.

Now it’s a real life-or-death problem.

When Clarence arrived the police office, he saw Winnie also waiting there.

Channing looked at him and nodded slightly.

Donald said again, “Can you tell me why you beat him?”

Channing remained silent.

Donald continued, “You need to tell me what happened so that I could defend you. You really want to go into the prison? You should think of Stella. And Winnie is also waiting for you outside. I can guess what kind of relationship between you and her is.”

Donald continued, “Don’t worry. I am your lawyer and our conversation will be kept secret. Even Mr. Conrad would not know what we said to each other. That’s my duty as a lawyer.”

Channing bit his lips softly.

Then after quite a while, he finally said, “I want an ashtray and a lighter.”

Donald nodded and walked out to fetch the things he asked.

Before Donald gave cigarette to him, Channing had already taken out a stack of photos and had them burnt without letting Donald see them.

Donald frowned. He could only see the back of those photos. Before he could say anything, Channing opened his mouth, “Chassell Barret is Winnie’s ex-boyfriend. He used those photos to threaten and humiliate me. So, I couldn’t refrain myself from beating him.”

Donald stood up promptly, only to see the last photo get burnt. He was hence seized by a sudden sense of anxiety, “So the photos ... Do you know that the photos can serve as crucial evidence in court to win the lawsuit?”

Channing said, “So what?”

He lowered his head and put on a sneer on his face, “So you want me to hand those photos over to the prosecutor or the judge for the freedom of myself?”

Donald was silent.

He was indeed a determined boy.

Maybe that’s why Clarence looked so worried. It must be a case difficult to handle.
