Victor walked out of the medical examiner's office, saw Finn Parker, and hurried over."Director Parker, I have something to ask you."After listening to Victor’s narration, Finn asked, "Is this retribution?""Are you crazy? How can you say such a thing as the director!""Fia died because of Conrad, and he lost his memory for five years and provoked two girls from our Parker family. Now that his legs are healed, he doesn't recognize anyone!"This kind of trash will get retribution if he lives! What a pity for those loyal subordinates around him!”Victor was speechless. He originally wanted to use Finn to get the forensic results out faster, but now it seems he can no longer think about it."No one cares about Miss Parker and that sister of hers. They shamelessly rushed to get in touch with Conrad when he lost his memory!" After saying that, he turned around and left."Stop right there!" Finn was so angry that his chest hurt.Victor walked even faster.Finn shouted, "Are you n
Instead, it was Sally that gave him the answer, “The bullet almost hit his heart. If it weren’t for Ms. Sia, he would have died on the operating table earlier. He’s really lucky.”Victor asked, “Can we pay visit him now?”“Sure, go ahead—if you want him to die faster!” Fia barked as she threw him a sharp glare.“Must you talk in such a cutting tone?” Victor retorted in frustration.Seeing this, Sally anxiously explained, “But she’s right. You can’t see him right now. He needs to be in intensive care in a sterile environment. Visiting him now wouldn’t do anything to help him.”“I… I see…” Victor stammered, “Well, it ain’t my fault. This woman doesn’t explain anything and simply shuts me out.”Letting her hair down as she unequipped the surgical cap, Fia turned to Conrad and asked, “How did he get hurt?”“Someone fired a gun in front of our company. I was the original target,” Conrad answered.Furrowing her brows, Fia mocked up a cold grin as she tried her best to suppress the n
Recalling how she and Felicity fought at the mall the last time, Finn said to Fia passive aggressively, “Ms. Sia, may I remind you to behave yourself whilst in Fortuna. You have, after all, a rather suspiciously unknown origin.”“What do you mean by that?” Fia took a step toward him and asked coldly, “Is this about me fighting with your niece the other day? So, what? Is this you taking revenge on her behalf?”“…”Finn was stunned seeing her hot temper. Actually, it seemed to be more than a “hot temper”. He could sense that she was not just being angry at him—she was also displaying a sense of dreaded hatred toward him.“What a bunch of clowns! Every single one of you, losing your composure like you’ve seen a ghost when you see me! And I keep telling you douches that I’m not that poor woman who married Conrad Maxwell! I looked up on her, you know? That woman was so unfortunate. Not only that, she’s a Parker that you’ve abandoned for years!”Fia said cuttingly with a scowl. Finn dis
Felicity squealed in pain as she was manhandled by Fia.“Miss Parker, I’ve told you time and again. Do not piss me off. Yet, you keep doing it. So, this is on you.”“I’ll never let you off easy! I’ll make Conrad know the real you!”Scoffing at her words, Fia stepped on Felicity’s knee pit.“Then, allow me to give you a gift as you’re trying to do that. How about that?”Finishing her words, Fia shoved Felicity aside and entered her car before driving away.Falling onto the ground, Felicity was in great pain. She felt as though her wrists had been broken by that woman!She took out her phone to give Conrad a call. Yet, he had already blacklisted her number. So, her calls and messages could not get through.When she was about to bawl her eyes out, Felicity saw a pair of glistening, black leather shoes before her. She immediately raised her head and grabbed the man’s leg. “Conrad!”Conrad glared at her coldly, “So, you were giving Ms. Sia trouble?”“No… No…! It was her… She hit m
“Mom.” Felicity walked in, distraught. “It has nothing to do with my dad or uncle. It’s Sia!” “What happened?” Both Conall and Parker asked. Felicity sat on the chair and cried. Despite her usual strength, she cried like she was still a little girl. All her elders were upset with her. Joy walked over and hugged her, wiping her tears away. “What exactly is going on? Don’t just cry.” Finn said, “If Sia did anything to hurt you, I’ll help you get back at her!” Conall remembered Fia’s tanned face and asked hesitantly, “Is there any mistake? What can she do to make Conrad go crazy like that?” “She seduced Conrad and slandered me, making him misunderstand me. That’s why Conrad stopped the cooperation between the two companies!” Felicity then stared at her father with red eyes. “What’s with that expression of yours, Dad? Don’t you trust me?” Conall didn’t want to say anything. His daughter had changed a lot. Sometimes, she was like a stranger to him. “Don’t get so worked u
“Hello.” There was a moment of silence as the person on the other side chuckled. “What are you doing?” Fia’s expression darkened swiftly. “My call to you won’t go through. You’re busy chatting with your sister using a landline?” “She’s a sentimental woman and likes to use something classic. So what?” Lucifer’s temper flared. “Is there something wrong with me not picking up your call?” “That’s right! You’re acting very suspiciously! Conrad almost died in an ambush from a gun the moment he walked out of the company!” Even Fia didn’t realize just how agitated she was. Lucifer took in a deep breath. “You’re sad if he’s dead?” Fia was silent. “Do you remember what you promised me? And what you said to me?” Fia’s mind was in turmoil. Lucifer’s gentle voice was like the voice of a demon coming from hell. Lucifer continued, “You’ve disappointed me!” “Shut up!” Fia took a deep breath. “Did you tell Quincey to do it? You’re worried that she’ll be exposed, so you asked her t
After leaving Quincey’s place, Fia drove to the kindergarten. She could pick up the children in another half an hour. When she had parked the car and reached the gate after two minutes of walking, someone pulled her hand. She wanted to retaliate but stopped when she saw the familiar face. “What are you doing here?” “Picking up the children with you,” Conrad said as he looked at her. Fia said, “Silas is already in the hospital because of you and Tiger is still out of reach. And you’re still walking around like this? Do you have a death wish?” “You’re worried about me?” “As if.” It was at this time that the teacher opened the gate, and Fia was the first one to pick up the kids. Conrad followed her and said, “I want to pick up the children together with you after this.” “No need.” Fia glanced at him coldly. “I’m worried about getting cursed if I’m too close to you.” “We don’t need you,” Adrian suddenly said and pulled his mom. Meanwhile, Irene didn’t want to do it. “
Before this, Conrad didn’t have any plants on the balcony, and Fia didn’t have any in her home as well. However, she had enjoyed gardening for a long time. After her marriage and waiting for him to come home, the next thing she liked to do the most was taking care of the plants in the yard. But now, she didn’t like it anymore. After helping Mrs. Taylor with the plants, she was ready to go back to the kitchen. She then heard the laughter from the entertainment room. Other than the children’s laughter, there was also Conrad’s. She had never heard Conrad laugh like that. She carefully opened the door. She saw all three of them with pieces of white paper on their faces. “Rock, paper, scissors!” Conrad was playing a game of Rock Paper Scissors with the kids. Anyone who lost would have a piece of paper stuck on their face. She wasn’t sure if Conrad was letting the children win, but he had the most paper pieces on his face. Fia gave it a look and knocked on the door. Con
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
