William poured Clarence a glass of water and sat down opposite him. “Why did Aaron come back with you?”

Clarence crossed his legs and tapped lightly on the sofa with his fingers. “Perhaps you should ask him.”

William turned and looked at the little kid that leaned on the door frame with his head poked out, he quickly hid and closed the door noticing William.

“If Aaron did something that offended Mr. Conrad, I’ll apologize on behalf of him, he…” He said gently.

“Apology is not needed.” Clarence said coldly, “He went to Stella.”

William was shocked hearing that, he didn’t expect that to happen and his face turned serious, sunken into thoughts.

Clarence continued, “Keeping this kid beside is like a bomb, he went to Stella today and could go to Charles tomorrow. Do you think it will be alright if Stella is dragged into this?”

William bit his lips, “Don’t worry Mr. Conrad, I’ll make sure that what happened will not repeat.”

“I don’t need your promise, I just want to remind you that one minor mistake could cause serious consequences, I guess you understand this more than I do.”

“Noted, Mr. Conrad.”

Clarence rose from his seat but sat down again as he recalled something. “I have a question.”

“Please ask,” William said.

“You came back to City N after so long and there should be no friends or families here, but I think you might be familiar with a name.”

William didn’t reply, he took a sip of his water, waited for him to continue.

“Are you familiar with the name Jeffrey Radomil?” Clarence continued.

“Who is that?”
