Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again Chapter 488: He Already Had a Bargaining Chip in His Hand

After a moment of silence in the office, Logan spoke, “We hope that you can step in and take over the
Steward Group, so that everyone can settle down and buy us more time.”

“What time?”

“Here’s the thing, we and Mr. Bernard have been finding investors lately, trying to ease the Steward
Group’s temporary situation. However, nobody was in charge of the Steward Group at the moment, so
no company is willing to invest, and the bank won’t lend us money too.”

Armand continued, “But if you take over the Steward Group, they will do the deal for your sake.”

Stella didn’t beat around the bush with him and said to the point, “Is it for my sake, or for Clarence’s?”

Armand couldn’t help but look at Logan, “Erm…”

Logan continued with ease, “We did think of asking for Mr. Conrad’s help, but no matter what, Ms.
Radomil, you are the Steward Group’s rightful heir. As long as you can step in to succeed the Steward
Group, not only will it put the employees and partners at ease, other companies and banks will also
give the Steward Group another chance for the sake of the Steward Group’s deceased chairman.”

Armand said, “Yeah, yeah. Although I have never met the late chairman, I have heard a lot of rumours
about him. He was the one who turned the tide and preserved the precarious Steward Group when it
was almost being divided up. He had such deep feelings for the Steward Group. Now that he is no
longer in this world, you’re the only one who can save the Steward Group.”

Armand and Logan sang the same tune.

They wanted to say in the end that they hoped that Stella would help the Steward Group for the sake of
her father.



But what they didn’t know was that her father was still alive.

It was impossible for him not to know what the Steward Group was like at the moment. He just let it go
as he had probably given up all hope of the Steward Group.

However, there was one thing that they were right about.

The thousands of the Steward Group’s employees were so innocent.

Stella closed her eyes and suddenly felt the pulsing on her temples.

“Ms. Radomil, we…”

Armand still wanted to say something, but Logan stopped him just before he opened his mouth.

Logan said, “Ms. Radomil, we have said so much to you today, and I think you will need some time to
consider it too. There’s no hurry, and we will wait for your reply.”

Stella nodded gently, “Alright.”

She indeed needed time to think about this matter properly.

After leaving the studio, Armand’s words seemed to be filled with dissatisfaction, “We have gone
through so much trouble to find her, and this is just like that?”

Logan said, “Mr. Bernard, even if you forced her to agree to you today, do you think Clarence will let
you off after he finds out about this?”

Armand hesitated for a while before snorting, “After it has become a done deal, and so many people
are watching, can Clarence still go back on his word?”



“You’ve underestimated Mr. Conrad at this point. The more anyone pushes him on something he
doesn’t want to do, the more counterproductive it will be.”

Armand snorted, “If it wasn’t for the fear that this would end up on me, I wouldn’t have made this trip
and being at her mercy.”

Although Lyndon had escaped, Armand still had his wife, children and all property here, and there was
no way he could just flee without any preparation.

Although he could hide for a while, someone else would still find him and ask him to explain.

What could he say?

What did he have to do with what Lyndon had done?

He had no choice but to join Logan and come to Stella.

As long as Stella agreed to take over the Steward Group, he would have less trouble.

Logan smiled, “Mr. Bernard, Ms. Radomil will always be the daughter of the Steward family no matter
what. If the Steward Group can gather pace someday, we are also working for her.”

Armand waved his hand, “It isn’t that you aren’t aware of the Steward Group’s current situation that it is
just a matter of delaying as long as possible. How can it be possible to survive? Stella can’t even
handle this. Letting her to take over is just a distraction for the outside world.”

Logan narrowed his eyes and didn’t say anything.

But compared to Armand, he was all at ease.

He already had a bargaining chip in his hand, so it wasn’t hard to worry about getting out in one piece.



He was just wondering how he could use this bargaining chip to maximize his benefits.

Not long after, Armand spoke again, “It’s not impossible for the Steward Group to resurrect itself too.”

Logan was surprised hearing that, “How is that possible?”

Armand laughed loudly, patted Logan’s shoulder and said while getting into the car, “Unless the dead
Charles crawls out of the earth. Then there’s still a slight chance with his capability.”

Logan said, “Mr. Bernard, you must be joking. That Charles has been dead for years, hasn’t he?”

“That’s why I said, the Steward Group can’t even survive.”

Saying that Armand pulled the car door shut, “Alright, I’ll leave now. Just deal with it what happens
next. I don’t want to come here anymore.”

Logan nodded slightly, “Take care, Mr. Bernard.”

The car window in front of him rose, and the black vehicle slowly drove away.

Logan turned around and looked at the studio not far away. He curled his lips, calculating something.

Not long after, his mobile phone rang. Looking at the caller ID on it, Logan picked up the phone and
said in a gentle voice, “Amanda, what’s the matter?”

Hearing his voice, Amanda let out a breath, “I finally got out today. Are you working? If you’re not busy,
let’s have dinner together tonight.”

“Sure.” Logan pulled open the car door and added, “Speaking of which, you haven’t told me where you
guys have moved to.”



“Still in the neighbourhood, just moved next door to the boss.”

“Next door?”

Amanda said, “Yes. When we moved here, I was quite afraid that the boss’s girlfriend would find out.
But the boss seemed to mean that the most dangerous place is the safest place.”

Amanda was no longer as guarded and wary as before after hanging with Logan for so long. And she
would tell him everything.

Except for Clarence’s identity, which she had always replaced with the boss.

Logan sat in the car and looked towards the studio, “Your boss is quite smart then.”

“Yeah, but last time I lost my swipe card, he got so mad. I was scared to death back then.”

“Why don’t you quit your job? You can count on me. There’s not much chance to see each other since
you come out so less now.”

“Not yet. The boss is my benefactor. Just wait for a while longer, until the boss gets things sorted out.”

Logan tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, “What exactly is your boss waiting for?”
