Meanwhile, Fia had already led the twins who had finished breakfast to their multimedia room.“Mommy, will Daddy and Uncle Maxwell start fighting?” Irene asked.Adrian wanted to ask too, but he wasn’t as brave as his sister, so he could only watch his mother worriedly.“They won’t.” Fia gave her twins a smile. “Your daddy’s a patient man. He wouldn’t start a fight with anyone.”“That’s right! Daddy’s the best!” Irene immediately agreed too.Adrian, however, became even more worried.Fia ignored how he looked at her and patted his head. “Adrian, you’re still young. Don’t be like an adult and worry about everything. Learn from your sister.”“I can’t.”“What?”Adrian then said, “You told me to take good care of my sister since I was little. This is how I am. I can’t fix it.”When Fia heard that, she felt something stinging her heart.Adrian sighed. “It’s fine, Mommy. I don’t feel sad at all! I’m the big brother. It’s normal for me to take care of my little sister.”“Really?” F
Conrad gave a scornful look. He was not completely forgotten.But the person who remembered him was not the person he wanted.“Can we have lunch together? We haven’t had lunch together for so long.” Annie was worried that he would refuse, so she quickly added, “My mom also asked Mr. Payne to join us.”“Sure, understood.”“Conrad, you have to come. Mr. Payne said that he really loves the painting you gave him.”“I’ll go.” Conrad hung up.Annie didn’t dare to interrupt him anymore. But since he said that he would come, he wouldn’t go back on his word. She was worried that if she pestered him, he would simply reverse his decision.In the afternoon, Silas came to pick Conrad up. When the two of them were in the elevator, they saw the “family of four”.Lucifer was holding both the children with each hand while Fia was behind him.When she saw Conrad, she nodded at him and pulled her scarf.Meanwhile, Lucifer sincerely said, “What a coincidence, Mr. Maxwell.”Conrad simply nodde
“If you’re sick, go see the doctor!” Conrad used his cane to smack Silas’ butt.“You don’t know what’s good for you!” Fia took the opportunity to say her bit, pulling her son and daughter over to educate them. “Didn’t I tell you they aren’t good people?”Adrian and Irene’s eyes were red and they were about to cry.“Alright.” Lucifer pulled her hand away. “Don’t scare the kids.”“You!” Fia raised her head and glared at Lucifer, wanting to scold him, to say that he was crazy. Why did he have to blindly get involved!However, seeing his blue eyes that had a hint of laughter, she could not say anything.She was sent here by him for a mission. She did not have any right to blame him.This person was crazy and unfathomable.She could offend anyone but him.The two children were registered under him and for them to be moved under her register still depended on his consent.“Honey, what's wrong?" Lucifer asked with a smile, seemingly in a good temper."Don't talk to strangers." Fia’
Lucifer gently pulled out a few sheets of tissue to wipe away the sweat on Conrad’s face."I’m really sorry, I can’t assist. He has had medicine that contains toxins for many years and his body has been hollowed out. He won’t be able to be cured in a short period of time. I’m no Asclepius."Fia swept him a glance, internally despising him.Everything was directed by him. Why was he acting innocent!“Honey, don’t you agree?”“Yes, I do.” Fia forced herself to cooperate with him.She was in the same boat as Lucifer was, and it would not be possible to offend Lucifer for the sake of helping Conrad.“Then, could I trouble you to explain to the kids? Otherwise, the children will blame me for watching on without assisting.” Lucifer sounded worried and his expression matched his tone.This act of his tricked Silas.Silas immediately called Sally.“Doctor Sally, Mr. Maxwell’s fallen unconscious yet again. Can you… Is surgery more important than Mr. Maxwell?“I don’t mean that, Docto
Fia shuddered and stared at Lucifer’s blue eyes in a daze.“What kind of deep hatred do you have for him?”“Why? Does your heart hurt for him?” Lucifer’s gaze was mocking.“No. I’m just curious. It has been so many years, yet you have not let him go. What exactly is the hatred between you?”“Transforming like a phoenix, reborn from the ashes.” Lucifer gently spat out the words and walked toward the carousel.The moment it stopped, he carried each child up with either hand.Lucifer and the two children turned around and smiled at Fia.At that instant, Fia experienced what was called visionary stimulation.Adrian and Irene trusted Lucifer and Lucifer liked them as well.If there wasn’t all this deceit and intrigue, it wouldn’t be so bad if they were a family.However, she knew that Lucifer was the one who couldn’t let things go, so she could not hope or count on it.What she could do was complete the last mission and leave with her children.“What’s wrong?” Lucifer saw her re
“Do you have an appointment?”“No.”The receptionist said quite apologetically, “I’m sorry, but you can’t meet Mr. Evans without an appointment.”At this moment, a series of steady footsteps came from outside the door.Fia subconsciously looked over and saw Jason, who was in the middle of the group, and immediately ran over.“Mr. Evans, I have something to discuss with you.”“Who are you? Move aside!” The security wanted to drag Fia away.Before he managed to touch her, a voice stopped him. “Wait a minute. I know her.”Jason dismissed the people around him and walked to Fia. “Why do you wish to meet me?”“You know me?” Fia was a little curious.“At the auction. Have you forgotten?”“Oh, yes. That’s right!” Fia was a little embarrassed. “Do you have time?”Jason looked at his watch and then at Fia. “Yes, let’s talk in my office.”“Sure, thank you.”In the office, he took off his coat and looked at the reserved Fia.“Ms. Sia, please take a seat.”“Thank you.” Fia sat at t
“You were once a good doctor. And a doctor’s dream is to save the dying and help the wounded. Why would you give up your dream to be where you are today?”She asked very calmly, not avoiding Jason’s increasingly terrifying gaze.“Why are you so sure that my dream is to save the dying and help the wounded?” Jason said sarcastically. “Who doesn’t wish to earn more money? What job would make me earn more than being a boss now?”Fia looked at him at a loss.Jason got up and threw away the beer can. “I accept your order. Leave your phone number. I will get someone to contact you.”Fia was a little bit disappointed. She drank a sip of water and said, “There is no need anymore. I think you are right. I don’t need to simply spend money.”She suddenly did not wish to stay even a second longer.For someone to not dare to even admit to their dreams, no matter how amazing they appeared, it showed that they were fearful within and not brave enough to even face themselves.She did not wish t
“What a rude person! How does Mr. Evans know such a person!”The secretary let go of Annie, immediately sounding cold. “Don’t you think you’re being a little intrusive?”“I’m sorry. I’m not blaming Mr. Evans. It’s just that the woman doesn’t have a good reputation and I’m worried about Mr. Evans.”Hearing this, the secretary’s expression improved.Thinking on Mr. Evans’ behalf, she inquired, “Are you close to Ms. Sia?”“She lives in Aurora Residences, and she even deliberately chose to live one floor below Conrad. She goes there with her two children to seduce him whenever she can," Annie said with increasing disdain. "What kind of woman do you think she is?"The secretary was left speechless.Hazel Lennon led Annie into the CEO’s office and told Jason what Annie had told her.“Who said those words?” Jason looked at Annie, who was sitting in the opposite seat. “Miss Parker, you put the blame on others, but why don’t you take a look at yourself to figure out the reason?”“What
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
