Yet when she turned around to face Lucifer, she gave him a faint smile.“Are you hungry? I’ll go make lunch.”Lucifer’s gaze dimmed. “Play with the kids. I’ll make lunch today.”Fia watched Lucifer enter the kitchen. She rubbed her hands, feeling the chills right to her bone.“Mommy, what’s wrong?” Adrian noticed her nervousness.“Mommy, your hands are so cold.” Irene held her hand.Fia’s gaze trembled a little as she tried her best to keep calm and said, “I’m fine. Play in the living room. I’ll go and see what Daddy is making for lunch.”The two children went to play with Milo.She walked into the kitchen. Lucifer had his back rim rod straight, and was drinking alcohol, not at all planning to make lunch.She pretended not to see his unhappiness. “Have you started cooking rice?”“Not yet.”“Let me do it then.” Fia dug out the pot in the rice cooker, washed the rice, and put it back into the rice cooker before switching it on.Lucifer was staring at her sideways. He drank a
"Maybe there's something magical about her that's attracting me. For the past five years, with no memories, I haven't been drawn to any woman like Sia Stewart, although I did get closer to the Parker sisters."After he finished speaking, he opened his eyes and looked at Eileen."And why do you keep looking for her?"Eileen frowned but didn't want to tell Conrad that she felt Sia resembled Fia.Even if there was a one-in-a-million chance that Sia was Fia, she didn't want the two of them to meet again.Conrad would only bring harm to Fia.Suddenly, she wanted to slap herself. Even if Sia wasn't Fia, even if she just resembled her a little, she shouldn't selfishly let Sia get closer to Conrad.It was exactly because she looked like Fia that she should keep her distance from Conrad, so history wouldn't repeat itself!"You're a disaster!" she said ruthlessly. "Conrad, you're a disaster. Don't provoke Ms. Sia. She has children and a husband. Don't mess with her!"Conrad was baffled.
“What do you mean? Your two children belong to Master?” Peter asked with a shock.Fia sent a sharp gaze over. “Did you become a fool after being so free for the past five years?”Peter was speechless.“You really dare to think of all kinds of nonsense!” Fia had a look of disdain.Peter stared at her in a daze. “You’ve really changed a lot.”Fia lowered her head with a smile and drank a big mouthful of alcohol.“My appearance has changed. I can’t possibly still be like a child.”Peter’s phone rang and he turned sideways to answer it.After he hung up, he said to Fia in a whisper, “In a bit, see how things go and make a move when there’s an opportunity.”Fia was slightly stunned. “He gave you a mission?”“Yes.”Fia wanted to ask, but in the end, she did not.Shortly after, the noise of the people around all started moving in a single direction.Peter put down the wine glass. “Let’s go.”Fia waited for him to walk a distance away before slowly following after.Conrad held h
Was he not even willing to give her a transitional period now?Conrad's gaze shifted, and he saw Fia outside the crowd.He took a step toward her, but there were too many people around, and his temper flared."Move aside!"Everyone was puzzled by his sudden outburst. The aloof and indifferent man had unexpectedly lost his temper.Through several layers of human walls, Fia’s and his eyes met, and her expression grew colder.Peter leaned toward her and their heads were almost touching."Don't you find it strange? He's forgotten everything, so why is he treating you so differently?"Fia turned to look at Peter. “What do you mean?”“Say, do you think it might be possible that he never had amnesia?”Fia was speechless.“Why pretend to lose his memory? If he never lost his memory, what is he planning?”Fia’s mind was provoked by Peter’s words and thinking of the two children left her feeling high strung.“What else can you lose?” Peter asked lightly.Fia swallowed hard, her hat
Fia knew that Peter would not step in, and neither could she.Peter looked at Silas’ shocked gaze, apologized and was about to leave.“Ms. Sia…” Silas has just started speaking.Fia said helplessly. “Just wait for the ambulance. I am also helpless.”Peter had indicated to her that she could not take any action.Silas looked at Peter and ‘Ms. Sia’ at a loss. Not understanding what kind of a relationship the two of them had, watching on coldly at Mr. Maxwell’s situation.“Let’s go!” Peter grabbed Fia’s hand and was just about to leave.Suddenly, “Don’t go!” Conrad’s breathing hastened, but he pushed aside Felicity to sit up.His gaze was full of pain, and a hand was pressed against his chest.His heart felt extremely miserable and his entire being felt tortured.He could not watch Sia Stewart leave with another man!Fia turned her head back, and said with a frown, “Mr. Maxwell, it’s better for you to calm your emotions and wait for an ambulance.”“I said, don’t leave!” Conrad
“That person is Master, isn’t he?”Fia’s gaze was faint. “I did not tell you anything.’“Otherwise, why did he want to approach Conrad? This is abnormal!” Peter started to get anxious. “What does he want to do?”“It’s nothing to do with you.” Fia sighed. “No matter what he wants to do, it has nothing to do with us.”Peter stared at her in a daze. “You… You are really different from who you were before.”"How can you possibly be the same once you've shed your skin?" Fia replied with a faint smile. "Thank you for not telling them who I am. Keep up the act, and once this mission is complete, we'll both gain our freedom."Peter’s throat rumbled. Once the chaser in his body was gone, he would regain his freedom.In the future, he would no longer have to be worried about being controlled or threatened.However, before that, would he continue to let him do things against his own conscience?Not everyone was like Britney, willing to not send him to jail because of her obsession.“Wha
“Mr. Silas don't you think so? Just now Mr. Hall tugged Ms. Sia’s hand. Everyone saw it!” Felicity was a little anxious.Silas took a look at Conrad. “Indeed, but this does not mean that there is anything between Ms. Sia and Mr. Hall.”He thought of Fia’s aura on Sia Stewart.And spoke again. “Mr. Hall himself has a fiance and the two of them can be considered to be childhood lovers.”“Ha. Childhood lovers?” Felicity found it ironic. “Back then, Britney’s matter had been blown up so widely. Who doesn’t know?”“What matter?” Conrad asked out of curiosity.Felicity frowned and kept her silence.Silas also kept mum.Only Lucifer spoke. “A lot of things they aren’t telling you are due to their considerations. Rather than asking others, why don’t you ask yourself?”Conrad’s gaze landed on Lucifer. “Can you help me recover my memory faster?”Lucifer was silent.He looked at him seriously, not saying a word.Conrad repeated his question. “Are you able to help me speedily recover m
“Shhh.” Lucifer’s voice was cold. “Being too smart is not a good thing.”Peter swallowed hard, lowered his head, and no longer dared to say a word.He listened to Lucifer’s footsteps as they faded into the distance before he dared to lift his head.After brewing three cups of coffee, Felicity handed a cup to Silas."Thank you, Miss Parker," Silas said with a humble nod.Felicity sighed. "If you really want to thank me, just cooperate a bit and give us some space, okay?"Silas hesitated.“If you stay here, it'll be difficult to discuss certain matters.”Silas didn't want to leave, but Conrad said, "Leave!"“Sir, I guarantee I won’t interject.”“Get out!”Silas had no choice but to leave and shut the door after himself.In Felicity’s makeshift office, only she and Conrad remained.She handed him a cup of coffee. "I ground the beans myself. It tastes pretty good. Give it a try."Conrad accepted it and put it on the table. “Have I really known you since we were young?”Felic
