Mr. Maxwell, who had never done any housework, had never washed dishes before.

Conrad held her arm tightly. “We should stop fighting. I want to tell you right now. I don’t want a divorce anymore. I don’t want to be with Esme like we were in the past anymore.”

Fia looked at him numbly, her mind blank.

“I don’t know how things could turn out like this. But I can feel that I no longer have the same feelings I had for her. Instead, I would keep on thinking of you when I’m together with her.

“Ever since I asked for the divorce, our peaceful life has been destroyed. I hate this. So… I want to take it back. Can we go back to how we were?”

Fia asked numbly. “Back to how we were? How? How were things like in the past?”

“Let’s not divorce. Let’s just live a good life. Just the two of us and no one else.” Conrad’s words also became much more assertive. “I will break up with Esme. You can’t see that doctor again either.”

“We’re not like that.” Fia instinctively argued back.

    The next day. The doorbell rang.Fia stared at the door with terror. Her hands were raised, but she didn’t open the door.Jason suddenly realized something and shouted from the outside, “It’s me, Fia!”When Fia heard the voice, the terror in her eyes quickly disappeared and she went to open the door.She opened it with a gentle smile on her face.“Morning, Evans.”Jason was momentarily stunned and pretended not to see the eyebags under her eyes getting worse. He raised the bag in his hand.“The vegetables that I ordered yesterday.”Fia nodded. “Looks like they’re quite fresh.”“My electric pot still isn’t working, so I’m here to borrow your kitchen.”“Sure. Come in.”She moved away and let him in.Jason immediately walked into the kitchen and began cooking. When he saw that Fia didn’t come into the kitchen, he worriedly went to the living room.Fia was like a lost girl. She stood in the living room, staring at a spot numbly.“Fia?”He called out to her, but she didn’t

    “I’m reminding you again, mom! The only reason this didn’t get out of hand is because that officer’s face isn’t severely injured and it could be dealt with with money. But Fia’s mom… That’s not something that money can help!”With that, Conrad left without looking back.Beryl was completely stunned. So her son was really going to abandon her?How brutal was he?!“Eat some more, Fia.”“Thank you, Evans.”Fia chewed the tomato omelet and praised him. “You can cook so well. Whoever you marry is going to be so lucky!”Jason frowned and wanted to say something, but he held it back.After they were done eating, Fia cleaned up the plates and utensils while Jason washed the dishes.The two of them worked together as they chatted, just like a pair of real siblings.“Fia, I’m going to the hospital for work in the afternoon. Let’s go together.”Jason looked at Fia anxiously.Fia looked at the apartment and shook her head.Jason gave it a thought and said, “You need to go for a pregna

    “Ms. Lawson, is there something in your life that can’t be solved easily?” the doctor asked, seeing that she was Jason’s friend.Fia shook her head. “I’m doing alright. Suicide is the easy way out… Living is the tough option. I won’t do something so stupid.” With that, she gave the doctor a smile.Her reaction was so abnormal that the doctor’s hand trembled.“I’ll give you a doctor’s note for an ultrasound. Remember to bring the results back to me, okay?”“Thank you, doctor.”Fia did an ultrasound. After she received the results, she checked it and analyzed it using the internet.Once she was sure that everything was normal with the baby, she didn’t bring the results back to the doctor and instead left the hospital.In the afternoon, when Jason couldn’t reach Fia through her phone, he went over to his colleague’s office.“How’s her results?”“Pretty good. But your friend is quite strange. I told her to come to me after she got the results but she didn’t. Since she’s your frien

    “As I thought. She was the one who told you that.” Fia massaged her temple. “Just what did she promise you? Let me guess.“Secretly abort my child, remove me from the Maxwell household, take her into the family, she’ll give your son a child, and once she has control over your son’s financial, she’ll share half with you?”Beryl felt a chill down her spine. Because everything Fia said was right.“The reason you don’t like me is not because I’m not my cousin. It’s not because I’m not your son’s childhood friend and lover. It’s because I honor my husband above all else and won’t ally myself with you. Isn’t that right?”Fia smiled after she was finished.Beryl pulled back and said, “You’re spouting lies and trying to destroy our relationship! I have such a great son! I’m going to live a good life until the day I’m dead!”“True. You’re so lucky compared to a lot of mothers in this world… But you wanted more,” Fia said with a sneer. “Once Conrad realizes who you really are and knows wha

    Fia took out her jewelry box. Everything that Conrad gave her for the past three years was inside.She rarely wore them. She snapped pictures of her pieces of jewelry and posted several sets on an online second-hand marketplace.She wanted to sell them. She needed to make the necessary preparations for her child and fight alone.Even though Conrad didn’t block her card, she didn’t want to place her hopes on it.Conrad came back and immediately ran toward the master bedroom.Fia sat in front of the dressing table and stared at her own reflection with the dark eyebags in the mirror.Conrad said, “Fia, let’s talk.”She looked at him in the mirror and said nothing.Conrad walked toward her and stood behind her, putting his hand on her shoulder.She frowned and hit his hand away.“If you have something to say, say it. Don’t touch me.” Her tone was cold and filled with anger.Conrad felt very remorseful.He pretended to not notice her attitude and spoke to her as gently as before

    “I want her to get a memorial for my mom, apologize to her, and place it in the Maxwells’ cemetery.”“…”Fia saw Conrad’s expression from the mirror. She could see his deep frown. He must be angry and unable to accept it.Since this was humiliation to his mother and the Maxwell household!“Can you still say that you want to live with me in peace?” She spoke in a tone that sounded as if she was making a joke.Conrad looked down and stayed silent for a bit.However, Fia was not willing to wait anymore. She grabbed her luggage from the corner and looked at Conrad. “If your mom can’t do it, I’ll just let the law handle her.”“…” Conrad looked at her, still thinking about Thea.“Even if I can only lock her up for a short time, my mom would still be happy if she knew, right?” She tried to smile, but there were only tears in her eyes.Conrad walked over and embraced her. “You’re leaving?”Fia said, “Do you think that we can still continue living like this?”“Fia, everything I told

    The servants had prepared a bed with red bed sheets and a blanket. They had even prepared flowers inside the bedroom.The moment Fia entered, Grandpa Maxwell came to mind.She remembered what happened when she first came to the Maxwell’s family residence.He had said to the servants, “Even when I’m no longer here, you must treat Fia well. When she’s back with Conrad, you must clean up the bedroom. Oh, prepare a vase of flowers for her. Girls like flowers, yes? That’ll brighten her mood.”Conrad followed Fia’s eyes and looked at the vase of roses.“When we came back the first time, the servants prepared a vase of roses too.”“Yes. Grandpa told them to.” Fia’s eyes turned red.The two of them took a shower and lay on the bed. Fia slept at the side.Conrad quietly moved over to her. He had just wanted to grab her waist when his phone rang.“Ha.” She smiled mockingly. “The ringtone you set for her is so lovely.”Conrad couldn’t say a word.He quickly grabbed his phone, refused E

    “Mom, Conrad, aren’t you going to have breakfast soon?” Fia held a small bowl of breakfast oats with hot milk. She blew a spoonful to cool it down before eating it.Whenever Beryl saw her from then onward, she would feel uncomfortable.“Mom, let’s go have some breakfast. It won’t be nice anymore if the milk cooled down.”“I’m not hungry,” Beryl said as she turned around.Meanwhile, Fia used a lazy tone as if she was talking about the weather and said “Mom, are you trying to delay things and go back on your words? Then Conrad and I will…”“Who said I’ll go back on my words?! I won’t. I’ll make an appointment with an expert to talk about the memorial.”“Alright. To be honest, I was hoping you’d forget it,” Fia said with a smile and looked at Conrad. “Then, we can let the law do its job.”“You…” Beryl turned around and glared at Fia, but swallowed the curses that threatened to leave her lips.The woman had evidence against her, so she couldn’t simply make any move.At the dinner

    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
