Chapter 620: Chapter 620

Dolores sighed, “It’s my choice to kneel here. Come back. Stella comes with you, right?”

“Nathan has sent her back. I come here to ask you a question.”

“I know what you want to ask. I’ve heard of some things on the way here. I don’t know what Joanna had done when she was alive, but the one backing her up is not the James family. And the baby’s sickness has nothing to do with the James.”

Clarence asked, “Then what about you?”

Dolores replied after a while of silence, “Clare, ever since I left the James family, I’m no longer a member of the family. This is the reason why I haven’t told you about this.”

“Now that you’ve left, why do you come back again?”

“Because I regret it. I regret that impulsive choice. I don’t want to regret it for the rest of my life, so I come back to do something that I can do.”

“I have many questions before I came to the James family, like your relationship with the James family, what drives Vincent to stay by my side for many years, what happened twenty years ago and what the James family’s roles in those things were.”

“Clare...”

Clarence continued indifferently, “But these puzzles were solved when I found you here.”

Dolores slightly knitted her brows and moved her lips trying to say something.

Clarence said in a calm voice, “You’re Darnell’s aunt, the only and beloved daughter of the previous patriarch. Although he was angry that you insisted on leaving Riverside because of a man and therefore cut off the relationship with you, he was still worried about you a lot.”

“Especially when he learned that the man who deceived you to City N had a wife and a son and didn’t give a shit about your life, he wanted to seek revenge for you and pave the way for your son, so he bribed the driver of the Conrad family and created a car accident. Justin...”

“Clare!” Dolores interrupted him, “It’s not like this. Your grandfather didn’t do that. He...”

It was hard to read Clarence’s expression as he continued, “I haven’t finished the story.”

Dolores suddenly felt weak.

Clarence continued in a flat tone after a short while, “When that man’s son was paralyzed by the car accident, he finally recalled that he had an illegitimate son who didn’t live with him. Then he took the illegitimate son back to the Conrad family regardless of other people’s objections. Things progressed according to the previous patriarch’s plan. But he also knew that Dempsey was not trustworthy.”

“Therefore, he sent a man from the James family to stay by that illegitimate son’s side and help him. At the same time, that man could send messages to the James family, which would help him take charge of the Conrad Group’s forces step by step and deprive of Dempsey’s control of the company.”

Clarence paused before adding, “This is the story that happened twenty years ago, right?”

Dolores shook her head lightly, “It’s not like that...”

“Then do you have another version?”

Dolores moved her lips trying to explain it, yet she couldn’t.”

Although Justin’s car accident was not plotted by her father, they were the cause of this accident.

Clarence continued, “I’ve doubted Vincent ever since I learned about the existence of the James family, but I couldn’t figure it out. Nor can I accept this. We’ve known each other for nearly twenty years. What are the reasons for him to frame me? Only now do I learn that he deliberately approached me several years ago.”

“Mentioning this, I have to appreciate his favours so that I could get rid of Dempsey’s spies so quickly.”

“Clare, your grandfather and Vincent didn’t have any evil intentions towards you. They just hoped you could have a better life.”

“That’s true.” Clarence stared at the memorial tablets in front of him, “I’m doing well. I was once an illegitimate son who grew up in a broken alley, but step by step, I became the CEO of the Conrad Group and snatched everything that Justin once possessed.”

Dolores closed her eyes. She was afraid that Clarence would think so, so she didn’t allow Darnell to tell him about the truth.

Clarence continued, “Joanna had said numerous times that it was me who snatched Justin’s things, and I once felt angry and aggrieved. For me, that car accident is simply an accident and it is the two drivers to be blamed. I thought it had nothing to do with me and I didn’t have to feel guilty for it.”

“But it turns out that Joanna’s accusation was right. It was me who caused Justin’s sufferings. If not because of me, the car accident would not have happened and Justin would still be the only son of the Conrad family. He should take charge of the Conrad family and the Conrad Group.”

Dolores choked with sobs, “Clare, you didn’t do anything wrong. I’m the one to be blamed.”

“Nope. I was wrong that I had lived without any guilty for many years and I was wrong that I hadn’t known about this earlier.” Clarence continued, “It’s your choice to come back to the James family to show your filial piety and I’m not qualified to oppose it. Just let it be. Darnell is the patriarch of the James family and you won’t have any dangers.”

After finishing the words, Clarence stood up and left in strides.

Dolores turned around, “Clare... Clare...”

Clarence didn’t stop and his figure disappeared in the ancestral hall son.

Dolores worried that he would do something silly.

Two men who sat in a car outside of the James’ Mansion smiled when they saw Clarence walking out of the James family. One of them said, “Looks like Clarence has learned about the truth.”

“Although Dolores and Darnell want to keep it a secret from Clarence, since we’ve taken many actions, our efforts will be in vain if he still can’t find any clue. Those people in City N will be disappointed then.”

“Tell Jon that our plan is successful and he can’t carry out the next plan.”

...

After leaving the James’ mansion, Clarence drove the car to a riverside, got out of the car and looked at the distance expressionlessly on the bridge.

He stood there for two hours.

Archer, who was in a black car not far away from Clarence, swallowed salvia when he saw this scene, “He looks so upset. Will he jump into the river?”

Darnell closed his eyes and said blandly, “He would have jumped into the river if he has such an idea.”

“That’s true. But the truth is totally different, why don’t you make it clear with him?”

Darnell slowly opened his eyes, “Grandpa was so angry at that time and it was true that he once had the idea. It was just that Justin was only a child at that time. Even if he wanted to seek troubles for the Conrad family, he would not hurt a child who didn’t know anything.”

“So your grandpa dropped the idea after calming down?”

Archer sighed emotionally, “I heard from Vincent that Clarence’s elder brother is good to him. It’s reasonable for him to be guilty.”

Darnell let out a light mocking, “A disgusting place like the Conrad family actually raised a gentle and kind-hearted man like Justin. I don’t know whether it’s luck or misfortune.”
