Sherry wanted to persuade Channing to go someplace else, but she felt weak.
Channing was more stubborn than Stella.
Daniel said, “Then we should all go together. I wanted to pay Ms. Radomil a visit as well.”
Sherry didn’t know what to comment about Daniel.
Daniel was such a busybody.
When they arrived in the hospital, they saw the lights in Stella’s ward were turned off as they stood in front of the room.
Sherry whispered, “Stella is asleep. Let’s go.”
Channing sat on the chair outside the corridor and leaned his head against the wall. He said softly, “I’ll stay here. You all should head home.”
“But you…”
Daniel stopped Sherry before she finished talking.
Daniel told Channing, “We’ll leave now then. Call us if you need anything.”
“Sure,” Channing answered.
Daniel held Sherry’s hand and pulled her out of the hospital. After they got out of the hospital, Sherry struggled and got away from Daniel. She frowned, “How could you let Channing sleep on the corridor? He…”

“He won’t be able to sleep tonight,” Daniel explained, “I would rather he stay there under the watch of Clarence’s people than let him go to places we don’t know and do something silly. Furthermore, Stella’s in the room. He wouldn’t do anything sill with Stella around.”
It sounded reasonable for Sherry.
Channing was the worst victim in what happened.

Daniel realized Sherry zoned out. He approached her and asked, “What are you thinking?”
Sherry immediately took a step back when she saw Daniel was so near to her. However, it was a staircase behind Sherry. She fell behind defenceless.
Daniel quickly reached out his hand. He hugged Sherry’s waist and pulled her back.
Sherry felt awkward. Why did these physical contacts keep happening today? It made Sherry seemed like she did it on purpose.
Sherry immediately kept a distance from Daniel after she steadied herself. She smiled, “Thank you for everything you did today. We should go home now. I…”
“Where are you staying now?”
“What?”
Daniel said, “I went to your place last night. You weren’t there.”
Sherry muttered, “Who dares to stay there after what happened?”

No, wait. Why did Daniel go to her place?
Daniel asked again, “You lived in the hotel now?”
Sherry nodded in hesitation. She wasn’t sure why Daniel asked her that.
“Let me send you back to the hotel.”
“It’s alright. I can take a cab.”
Sherry rejected Daniel right after he offered to send her back to the hotel.
Then, Sherry quickly walked to the roadside. The street was empty. There weren’t many private vehicles on the road, let alone cabs.
Sherry took out her phone and booked a cab through a mobile application.
The driver was five kilometres away from Sherry, and it was on the way to pick up Sherry.
Sherry realized Daniel was still standing behind her and didn’t leave. She was a little frustrated. Sherry wanted to cancel the previous booking and tried to get a cab nearer to her, but the system informed her that it was the nearest one for her.
Sherry had no choice but to wait for the cab.
Daniel stood still, and he didn’t seem like he was going to approach Sherry. Sherry wasn’t sure what he wanted to do.
Sherry held her phone, and she was stiff. It was hard for Sherry to remain a good looking view from the back.
A white car stopped in front of Sherry about ten minutes later.
After assuring it was the car Sherry ordered through its car plate number, she opened the door and got into the car.
Daniel memorized the car plate number after Sherry left. Then, he turned around and left the place.
Daniel had so many things to do tonight. So, he couldn’t follow her back to the hotel.
After leaving the hospital, Daniel went to Cameron’s house.
Three people were waiting for Daniel in the house. It was for what happened in Jeffrey’s house today.
Cameron quickly stood up with his walking stick when he saw Daniel walking in, “How was it? Is everything resolved? Did they confirm the identity of the body?”
Daniel nodded, “They haven’t gone through a diagnosis yet, but they can almost confirm the identity. I’ve dealt with the police. None of what happened today could make it to the news.”
Cameron was shaking in anger, “It is ridiculous! How did he call himself a human? I’ve never expected to hear such a thing in my whole life.”
Emmett held Cameron’s arm and supported him, “Please calm down, Mr. Thomas. Mind your body.”
Cameron sat down, but he looked terrified, “I could never imagine she was in the wall all these years. What…”

Cameron was choked and coughed.
William stepped in and asked coldly, “Where’s Jeffrey?”
“He was arrested.”
“What did he say?”

Daniel felt like it was fortunate enough for Jeffrey because he was the one to be there. If William was the one there, things might get more complicated.
Daniel paused for a while before he continued, “He said that people were meant to be buried after they’re dead. So, he buried her in his house and did not take up any public spaces. He didn’t do anything wrong.”
Cameron paused for a while, “The body. Where is it now?”
“The forensic team is doing their job now. After that, the body is allowed to go home for its funeral. But…”
“But?”
William stepped in. He sounded cold, “The body needed to be claimed by a family member.”
Cameron coughed, “That made sense. The truth had been surfaced now, and Lyndon’s true colour was revealed. You should tell Stella everything. What’s the point of hiding anything from her now?”
William seemed scowled. He remained silent.
Emmett explained, “Mr. Thomas, Stella and Channing grew up together and Channing was the most important person for her in this world. He was her only family member.”
Cameron frowned, “So what? I’ve met Channing. He’s good looking and obedient. After all, he’s Miranda’s child. You…”
Daniel continued, “Yes, Stella and Channing came from the same mother, but anyhow, Jeffrey was the father. He put Stella in danger too many times before. He even hides a body in the wall. It would be awkward for everyone once Stella found out the truth.”
Cameron sighed and paused. Then, he continued, “Are you sure? Channing wasn’t…”
Daniel shook his head.
They have checked many times. Channing was Jeffrey’s child.
William stood up, “It’s getting late. You should take a rest.”
Cameron nodded.
Daniel and Emmett walked behind William. Emmett whispered, “How’s Stella doing?”
“I went to the hospital just now. Clarence was with her, and she was resting.”

“You should go again tomorrow.”
“You are not going?”
Emmett faked a smile, “Clarence would probably chase me out once I arrived at the entrance of the hospital.”
