“I’m sorry.” Conrad apologized again as he let go of Fia’s hand before turning and leaving.

He didn’t know what happened either. It felt like he was being possessed. He didn’t even know what happened anymore.

Fia lied back in the bed as she gasped for air like a fish out of water.

She wanted to cry, but she felt that crying meant humiliation and she refused to be humiliated further.

She wanted to scream, to curse, but she was out of strength.

She felt like she was going crazy.

She once again fell into a deep sleep and only her ringtone woke her up in the evening.

“Hello?”

She was too tired to see who called.

Wallace, who was on the other end of the call, was silent for about two seconds. “Fia? It’s me, Uncle Wallace.”

Fia sat up and held her phone tightly.

“What is it, uncle?”

“You haven’t told your mom about your grandma, right?”

“Yes, I haven’t.”

“Good girl. Come to your grandma’s funeral tomorrow with Conrad.”

“Alright.”

Fia was worried that the Lawsons wouldn’t allo

    “Well, it’s fine. He must have a lot of things to settle, being the owner of such a huge company. It’s fine as long as you’re here.”“Thank you for your understanding. Let’s go.”Fia walked into the main hall and saw the Lawsons standing on either sides of the hall, sobbing.When they saw her come in, all of them looked at her with anger.Even if she did grow up in the household, her three aunts and their children didn’t like her because of her identity.She didn’t believe that she had it tough as her uncles and grandma all loved her.However, her grandma’s death made even her three uncles resent her somewhat.The Lawson household… Was not a place she could come to anymore.She held the carnation in her hands as she walked toward the coffin. She knelt on the floor directly, ignoring the cushion.She put the carnation on the ground as she clasped her hands before the coffin respectfully and her head hung low.“Grandma, thank you for all the years of love that you gave me. I am

    She let out a brilliant smile.“Save these for your own children, uncle!”She was no fool. Grandma had passed away too suddenly. Her uncles were the ones who had prepared these things for her behind their wives’ backs.She couldn’t take them.Not to mention that her grandma had already given her and her mom a lot of love. She never owed her anything.She couldn’t take anything from the Lawsons anymore!The three siblings glanced at each other and stopped forcing the things on Fia.She was right. If their wives found out, they were going to start fighting again.And then, they would hunt Fia down.They thought that as long as Fia didn’t divorce Conrad and remained the madam of the Maxwells, she wouldn’t have such a bad life.What they prepared for her wasn’t actually worth much.Wallace then said, “Fia, don’t fight with Conrad because of this.”Douglas nodded. “Your grandma is very stubborn. We can’t blame Conrad for everything that happened to your grandma.”Hector agreed

    Conrad frowned and remembered how Esme had cried and tried to force him to proceed with the divorce and marry her.He refused it without even thinking twice. He was more willing to go back on his words regarding the project than to divorce Fia and marry Esme.He was still in a daze about what had happened since yesterday. In the past few days, he saw a different Fia.Cold, numb… And no longer as obedient and as gentle as she was in the past.“I owe you one regarding this project. You like designing things, right? I can send you out of the country. When you’re back, I can employ you as Maxwell Corporation’s Design Director.”Esme looked at him in disbelief.The Maxwell Corporation Design Director was not a post simply to be mastered by someone with merely a good ability and high education.They also needed in-depth working experience and mastery over all the elements of the fashion industry.“Ha…” Fia felt that this was not a kind idea at all.She looked at the man and woman

    “What are you thinking about, Fia?”Eileen stood up and then had Fia sit down with her.Fia massaged her forehead and looked at all the attendants standing in a row. “Who told you about this?”“The last time you came, Mr. Maxwell and Ms. Manning were here too. You… you also threw a bracelet of hers.”The senior of the attendants carefully chose her words.In her eyes, Madam Maxwell robbed Ms. Manning of her bracelet and threw it away.They were talking about it and somehow, it reached their boss’s ears.Their boss’s special personal assistant, Mr. Whitley, even came to the shops to warn them. Saying that Mr. Maxwell wanted his wife to be treated well.That was how the entire top floor knew who she was.“That Tourmaline Bracelet was mine in the first place. I was simply throwing away something that belonged to me, not her!” Fia said in a stern voice. She was obviously very angry.Because of Esme’s return, more and more people were misunderstanding her.“Yes, yes. We said it w

    “The attendant then prompted them, saying, “There’s another wine-red color for this design. Would you like to take a look at it?”“We’ll take a look,” both of them said at the same time. They laughed together again because of the great chemistry between them.Even the attendant smiled together with them and noticed the tourmaline bracelets that they were both wearing that were of the same design but different color.She then presented the wine-red shirt to them. “Madam, since you bought a pair of bracelets already, why not buy two shirts as well? They’re very suitable for your husband and your best friend’s husband too!”“I don’t have a husband,” Eileen said with a stern expression. “I’m buying this for my dad.”Her relationship with Victor was a secret and she didn’t want to become the topic of gossip.“That’s right! She’s buying for her dad!” Fia took out her card. “Use my card.”“Alright, Madam. I’ll help you pack this up.”Eileen quickly said, “I’ll pay for the shirt.”“It

    When Fia stepped out of Eileen’s van, she could already see Conrad waiting at the gates.Her heart tightened as she looked at the bag in her hand.Could it be that he was waiting in front of the gate because she spent too much?He didn’t like her overspending his money, so was he going to scold her?She was going to pretend that she didn’t see him and was going to use the side door to go in with her head lowered.“I’ll help you.” Conrad grabbed the shopping bags from her and walked into the living room.Fia was stunned. What was the meaning of that?She ran in and saw him putting the bags on the sofa, already beginning to unpack them.“What are you doing?”“Seeing what you bought.”Fia felt humiliated and she pushed him.“What’s the meaning of this? If you’re angry, just say it. Don’t make it so weird!”“Why should I be angry?” Conrad looked at the things she bought and gave her a look of approval as he continued to unpack them.Fia was speechless.What was with that look

    And now, he wanted her to wear sexy underwear? So that he could torture her at night?Did he have amnesia?Their relationship had already been completely ruined the day that Esme came back!“Is this for me too?” Conrad looked at a dark green necktie. The pattern on it was that of bamboo leaves.Fia looked at it and made a grab for it.“This is not for you.”She put it back in the bag and then jogged upstairs along with her underwear.Conrad gave it a thought before his face darkened.He quickly chased after her upstairs and said, “Who’s that necktie for?!”“It has nothing to do with you!”“You don’t have a dad so don’t tell me you’re giving it to your dad!”Fia looked at him from the side and said, “Why can’t it be for your dad?!”Didn’t he know that he was rubbing salt into an open wound when he kept mentioning that his wife didn’t have a father?The only reason that he openly talked about it was because he didn’t love her.“That’s even more impossible!” Conrad followed

    Fia was done with her shower and she walked out the bathroom.She saw Conrad standing like a wooden stake in front of the sofa.“You don’t want to take a shower?”Conrad held the two strips of medicine before turning toward her.“What are these?”Fia’s eyes shrunk. “You searched my bag?”“I was looking for your receipts to see if there’s more. I accidentally saw your medicine.”Conrad then stared at Fia. “The miscarriage prevention pills are to keep your baby?”“They’re not mine!” Fia held the comb in her hand tightly as she forced herself to calm down. “It’s Eileen’s. She put it in my purse and I forgot about it.”Conrad frowned. “I thought you would say it yours.”Fia looked at him. “Why?”“To make me believe that you’re pregnant so I would give you the project back.”His words were calm but he didn’t dare to even blink an eye, worried that he would miss something.However, Fia only smiled and said, “I’m sorry for disappointing you.”She no longer wanted to torture hers

    She was not worthy of him.Right from the start."Wait a moment."She lowered her head to treat the wounds of a mother and son, then stood up with the medical kit and smiled at him."Shall I treat you to a meal?""Sure."She led him through the damp and moldy alley to a shabby restaurant.She ordered two bowls of noodles in the local language, sat down at the old table, took out a handkerchief, and wiped it vigorously.Conrad looked at her. It was obvious that she was different from before.She had gone through hardship, suffering, despair, and then settled down.The noodles were not delicious. There was no oil or salt, and even the soup was bland and tasteless.He looked at her sallow face and said, "Is this what you've been eating the whole year you’ve been here?""This is considered a good meal." Annie did not complain and said that she usually just ate some steamed buns.The conditions here were poor and backward in various ways.Moreover, Lucifer was determined to ma

    Fia stood on the streets, looking at the photos and remembering what Lucifer had once mentioned."When everything is over, how about I take you, Adrian, and Irene on a trip?"The man's blue eyes were like the sea, looking at her deeply.She fell into a daze for a moment back then.After coming back to her senses, she replied without emotion, "You should find a partner and travel around the world, and I should live a good life with my children."The sound of car horns on the road brought Fia back from her thoughts.She looked at the blue sky and white clouds and remembered the beggar boy she met on the bridge when she was a child.If he hadn't been taken away that day, would it have been different if he managed to wait until she and her mother went to find him?The days ahead were still very long, and she was not sure whether she would be able to live peacefully with Conrad in the future.But she would never swallow her anger like she did before.Later, Conrad, a decisive char

    Irene whimpered, turned around, and hugged Adrian. "Adrian, does Daddy not want us anymore?""No, don't talk nonsense! Didn't you hear what Daddy just said?""I heard him, but why do we have to choose? I won't be happy no matter who Mommy marries.""Shut up!" Adrian was a little anxious. If this silly sister of his said in front of everyone that their mommy could marry two men, it would be over!"Why shut up? Why can't we be with Mommy, Daddy, and our biological dad..."Adrian immediately covered her mouth. He knew that this sister of his could not speak normal words!Everyone in the audience also had mixed emotions. Those who originally complained about Lucifer’s actions all became quiet at this moment.With Lucifer’s blessings, Conrad took off the mask.Fia looked at him, tears rolling down her face.How much she had wished to have a wedding back then. She did not expect it to be so many years late.Conrad said with difficulty, "I didn't expect him to do this either."He w

    "Do you really want to stop the wedding?" Lucifer smiled half-heartedly, looking at him like a fool.***"What's going on? Why hasn't the groom come yet?" Everyone couldn't help discussing.Fia stood on the stage and exchanged looks with the emcee.Both of them were a little tired from standing.The emcee asked her awkwardly, "The groom?""He should be coming soon." After Fia finished speaking, the wind blew and revealed her face under the veil. "Just wait."The emcee cursed internally. 'It's really rare to have a wedding with such a beautiful bride kept waiting.'Fia fiddled with the veil on her head to cover her face, making her hazy beauty even more attractive.Just as everyone was waiting impatiently, the music suddenly changed to a more passionate one.The groom appeared.Wearing a black suit with gold threads and a blue rose on his chest, the six-foot-two man wore a golden mask on his face.With just one glance, Fia’s heart suddenly jumped and her body temperature bec

    The two kids could only rush back to find their mother and tell her what happened.Fia did not panic. "You were raised by Daddy. Don't you trust him? He is a man who keeps his promises. He said he is just inviting them to the wedding, so they are just attending the wedding."Even though she was suspicious in her heart, she would not speak ill of him to her two children.This island belonged to Lucifer, and his spies were everywhere.If he was infuriated, no one stood to gain anything from it."But that person was not arranged to sit down. He was taken into the woods," Adrian said anxiously.Fia turned to look at her son. "Are you worried about him?"Adrian could not look directly at her.Irene spoke first. "I'm the one who’s worried. I don't want them to fight.""Oh." Fia reassured them. "It should be fine. Today is a special day. Your daddy will not want to see blood."She thought Lucifer was simply afraid that Conrad would cause trouble, so he brought him to the island to l

    Amused, Lucifer said, "Those people are not under my command.""They gave you all the companies under their names. You said you'd let bygones be bygones, but if you go back on your word, how will your subordinates see you?"Fia’s eyes were a little arrogant.Lucifer’s expression turned cold and he stared at her and said, "How important do you think Hellish Training Camp is to me?""Then give it away!" Fia raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of teasing.Lucifer was speechless for a couple of seconds and explained to her seriously in a rare instance, "Those people have sacrificed a lot since they started following me. I can't ignore them. Except one day when there is a more suitable successor. I will take the initiative to give up my position.""Then you have to lead them well." Fia smiled slyly.Lucifer gritted his teeth with hatred. "Marrying you is equivalent to marrying a housekeeper. From now on, must everything I do have your permission?"Fia said, "Invisible shackles."On

    "I got it.""Thank you, Daddy!" Adrian kissed him twice on the face. "My sister and I will take care of you until you die.""Hahahaha!" Lucifer could not stop laughing. "Okay, I'll wait until you two grow up to see me off."He smiled while carrying Adrian and walked to Fia and Irene.Irene was eating something and said vaguely, "Adrian’s temper is getting worse now, and he lost his temper with me.""Who is angry with you!" Adrian slid off Lucifer. "Who do you think you are, that you can influence me?""Mommy, Adrian is shouting at me!" Irene pouted.Adrian turned his back. "Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore."Lucifer and Fia looked at Irene."Mommy, Daddy, what are you looking at me for?" Irene blinked, looking innocent.Lucifer sat down beside her. "Adrian should love you, but you should also respect him.""Didn't I respect him?" Irene was a little confused.Fia said, "While I'm still here, you just spread rumors that he is angry with you."Irene replied, "But he was

    Eileen returned to the living room."Is she really going to marry Lucifer?" Victor asked nervously.Eileen remained silent.Victor threw the spatula in his hand. "Can't you stop her for a bit?""Why should I stop her? No matter who she marries, she will always be my best friend!" Eileen said angrily. "Whoever wants to stop her should stop her on their own!"Victor saw that she was angry and quickly picked up the spatula. "I'm going to cook."Eileen rolled her eyes at him, sat on the sofa, and scrolled through her phone.Thinking of Adrian and Irene, she could not help but feel a little irritable.What if Fia and Lucifer had a child in the future?For the happiness of the two children, she forwarded the photo sent by Fia to Conrad.After Conrad received the photo, he immediately ordered everyone under him to put down all work and find the location in the photo.Three days later.The wedding on the island was beautifully decorated, dreamy and gorgeous, with Lucifer’s involvem

    Soon, Fia knew what they were doing with just a little of the decoration showing.Decorating the wedding venue.Irene was a little girl who was very happy when she saw balloons and pink ribbons.She ran over and grabbed them, but her brother, Adrian, slapped her little hand."Don't cause trouble!""So beautiful! These uncles and aunts were invited by Daddy. Can't I play with these things?"Adrian pinched her cheek and said, "That's Daddy decorating the wedding scene for Mommy!""What?" Irene immediately retracted her hand and said with an apologetic look. "I'm sorry. I didn't know."Adrian rubbed her head and said, "It doesn't matter. Don’t simply meddle. It should be beautiful when it's done."Irene nodded, took her brother’s hand and hid under a nearby coconut tree, and spent the whole day doing nothing except cooking and watching them.By evening, the dreamy and beautiful wedding scene was mostly completed.Irene leaned against her brother and asked dully, "Daddy and Momm
