Chapter 122

Lately, she could feel that Conrad was not as patient with her as before.

Conrad sent Fia a text.

“Why aren’t you saying anything, Conrad?”

“What did you say?”

Conrad raised his head and looked at Esme, his eyes unfriendly.

“I was asking if you’re unhappy.”

“Esme…” He paused. “To be honest with you, I don’t believe that you didn’t know that today is the Maxwell’s family dinner.”

Esme said nothing.

“Even if I divorced Fia, you shouldn’t have come here, not right now.”

“But Sapphire is here, so why can’t I be?” Esme couldn’t hold herself back.

“You’re comparing yourself to Sapphire? She is Victor’s fiancée. Who are you to the Maxwells?”

As he continued, his tone became frigid. “Esme… Don’t think you two can play me like a fool!”

With that, he headed out. He didn’t even want to have dinner anymore.

“Are you getting angry because Fia isn’t here?” Esme shouted.

Conrad stopped with her back still facing her.
