“All I’m asking is what will you do if I’m pregnant? Would you still want the child?” Fia refused to stop asking till she got an answer from him.

Conrad slowly became agitated and he kicked the leg of the bed.

Fia trembled from shock.

He then said heartlessly, “What’s the point of saying that you’re pregnant? I told you already. Our marriage is a mistake and we should cut off the bond between us completely!”

FIa could feel herself getting short of breath.

‘Our marriage is a mistake and we should cut off the bond between us completely!’

What she understood from that was…

If the bond between them were to be severed completely, then even if she was pregnant, he wouldn’t want that child.

‘I’m so sorry, my baby…

‘Daddy doesn’t want you… So, let’s not tell daddy, okay?’

Otherwise, what could she do if he forced her to abort her child?

She could not let him and Esme find out about this.

If any of them knew about this, they would not let the child survive!

“Go,” she said, as she

    It was two o’clock in the afternoon. Fia had consulted the doctor. As long as she paid more attention to her condition, it would be fine even if she didn’t check herself into the hospital.She was worried that if she didn’t go home, her mother and grandma were going to get worried. And so, she checked herself out.The doctor gave her a week’s worth of medicine and told her to come back for a review in one week.She threw away the medicine box out of caution and then placed the medicine in the small pocket inside her tote bag. She was worried that Conrad would force her to get an abortion if he saw it.There was a market near the hospital. As she wanted to make dinner for her mom and grandma in the evening, she walked to the market.As usual, she walked around the market and asked the price of each stall before buying those that were cheap and looked fresh.When she was leaving the market with two bags of ingredients, a slim woman wearing a mask suddenly stopped her.For the past

    “Oh! I haven’t tasted your cooking for a long time either. I’ll go take a bite!”The driver then started the car.Fia gave Eileen a good look. Three years ago, they were both university students. They were still so immature.Now, Eileen had already grown to become a sexy and attractive woman, becoming Hollywood’s newest superstar.Meanwhile, she had become Mrs. Maxwell. She had no career and she had not improved her fine art skills at all.“I’m quite envious of you, Eileen,” Fia said from the bottom of her heart.Eileen was dumbfounded. She placed her hand one on top of another as she looked at her freshly-done nails.She then said, “I was just joking with you. Yes, I have my own home and car, and I’m quite famous too… But I lost a lot of things.”“What happened?” Fia asked worryingly. Eileen was the only one that she was close to.Eileen gave it a thought and shook her head. “It’s nothing. We all have to suffer a little in life. Suffering isn’t scary. What’s scary is that our

    The three women were having fun chatting with each other.Suddenly, a man’s firm footsteps echoed from the front door. The three of them turned over and glared with hostile eyes.Conrad frowned and immediately ignored their hostility.“Grandmother Thea. Echo. Where’s Fia?”Eileen snorted. “My, oh my, Mr. Maxwell. You’re having so much fun out there. You’ve already spent one full day with your previous lover… Do you still remember that you have a wife at home?”Conrad looked back at Eileen and simply countered her, “You’re just an outsider. It’s not your place to say anything about how I run my household.”“HA. At least I’m not as shameless as a certain someone who spent time with another woman while he still has a family at home!” Eileen said. When Conrad’s cold eyes glared at her, she continued, “Fia’s my best friend. I told you three years ago to treat her well. If you don’t, I’ll let you suffer even if I have to sacrifice everything!”“I did treat her well,” Conrad muttered.

    She pretended not to see Conrad as she pulled Eileen’s hand and had her sit down.“Have some fruit, Eileen.”She then turned around and rubbed her mother’s back and said, “Don’t worry about me, mom. I’m fine.”“Fia…” Echo held her daughter’s hand and only managed to calm down after a long time.Thea had also calmed down as she straightened her back. “You want a divorce? Fine. Firstly, you’re not allowed to see Esme again before your divorce is complete! Secondly, the reason that I passed you the project that Old Maxwell and I were managing was so you would treat Fia well!“Now that you want to divorce Fia, you will pass it to her! Have Accounting calculate everything clearly. Pass everything on to her!”Fia was stunned. She didn’t know that her grandma had sacrificed so much so that Conrad would treat her well.She was feeling even worse. Was the reason Conrad treated her well for the past three years because of that project?Conrad frowned and said, “I can’t pass that to her.”

    Fia could feel coldness slowly overtaking her body as her hands by her side curled into tight fists. “Don’t worry. If my grandma is alright, I’ll divorce you immediately!”Her tears rolled down as she gritted her teeth.“As for the project, my grandma had already said it. You have no right to give it to Esme.”“Fine.” Conrad averted his eyes. The woman’s expression and tears made him feel agitated. He even felt somewhat upset. He didn’t want to look at her anymore.“I’ll pay you back twice the market price.”Echo tried to hold back her coughing as she asked, “That project is worth 150 million dollars right now. Are you sure you want to do that?”“I’m a man of my word.”“Mr. Maxwell… You’re really someone who’s willing to sacrifice so much just for your love!” Fia couldn’t help but sneer before quickly moving away while supporting her mother. Eileen’s hand extended past Echo and held Fia. She could feel that her body was cold, so she kept on rubbing her arm.“Don’t worry, Fia. N

    Silas stood there and then asked, “Doctor, about Madam Thea…”“Go back.” Fia stopped him. “Remember to tell Mr. Maxwell about what I told you.”“Madam, I want to stay and help.”“No need. There are doctors and nurses here,” Fia said very firmly.She was very disappointed. Her grandma had really fainted, but Conrad had suspected that she was faking it. He didn’t even come and had Silas do it instead. What was the point?After Silas walked away, Jason then asked, “You didn’t tell anyone about your pregnancy?”“Yes. But that’s not important right now. Why did my grandma fall unconscious?”Jason couldn’t bear to tell her the truth. “Your grandmother fainted because of a cerebral hemorrhage.”“Cerebral hemorrhage?” Fia had to support herself with the wall. She had heard about her grandpa from her mother… He had suddenly passed away because of a cerebral hemorrhage when he was fifty.“Your grandmother is quite healthy, and she has no other diseases. If her health was any worse, she

    “Silas is not someone like that,” Conrad said as he consoled her.“I’m… I’m just very sensitive. I feel that people around me are all judging as they look.” And with that, Esme glanced at Jason who was standing not far away.Conrad frowned and said, “Then let’s go look at your grandmother together?”“Yes!” Esme nodded. “I’m worried about her as well.”Originally, when Fia thought that Conrad wanted to leave Esme behind with Silas and he wanted to visit Thea together with her, it soothed her terrible mood.But when she heard that the two of them wanted to visit her grandma together, her temper flared again.“Let me go!” Fia struggled again, wanting to pull her arm away.“What do you want exactly?!” Conrad glared at Fia with annoyance. “Can’t you just be as gentle as before?”Fia was stunned as she felt the words cutting her heart again and she struggled even harder.Jason could no longer watch as an outsider and quickly walked over.“Mr. Maxwell, this is a hospital. Please be

    Fia looked at the floor and said, “Thanks, doctor.”Jason closed the water bottle and put it into his coat pocket. He then took out the packet of plums that hadn’t been opened yet.“Have some of these. It’ll make you feel better.”Fia looked at the package in his hand with disinterest. She didn’t know what to say, so she simply asked, “What’s this?”The man carefully explained, “Dried plums. Something that most pregnant women like to eat. This brand is known to be very clean so you don’t have to worry if it’s bad for your child.”With that, he tore open the package and then gave it to her.“Here, give it a try?”Fia took one. The plums were individually packaged. Jason took the small packed plum from her hand and tore it open. He then pushed it out and held it to her mouth.“Open.”Fia opened her mouth and ate the dried plum in Jason’s hand in a daze.It was so sour… So sour that it made her remember something from her childhood.She was bullied a lot by kids her age becau

    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
