“I’m only going to say it once. If anything happens to my wife while she’s here, you and your daughter won’t be here for long!”He left after that brutal warning.When Assistant Director Manning came back to his senses, he gave Priscilla’s head a poke.“Did you make some business transaction with your uncle?”Priscilla shook her head pitifully and said, “No, I didn’t.”“You heard him just now. Take good care of his wife. If something happens to her, I won’t be able to protect my own office!”“I know.”“You’re on the graveyard shift for the time being. Go and take a look if anything happens. Nothing can happen to her here!”After Priscilla sent her dad away, there was a malicious glint in her eyes.She simply had to make sure that she was safe here. She didn’t have to worry about it once she was out.Not to mention that she had deleted the audio recording. She was worried Fia would tell Conrad about it just now, but she didn’t.It seemed like Conrad didn’t care that much abou
After sending Jason away, Priscilla switched off the security camera again and entered Fia’s room.She looked at how Fia sat there emotionlessly and remembered how she was smiling at the camera just now.They were both women. Of course, she knew what kind of feelings Fia had for Jason.There were no feelings of man and woman between them. She didn’t want to disturb him, so she kept on showing that everything was fine.“Fia, I’m envious of you, but I also think you’re very stupid.”Fia looked at Priscilla coldly without saying anything.“If I were you, I'd give up on any of that so-called dignity. I’ll use everything I can to reach my goal, and attack those who are in my way!” Priscilla then looked at Fia mockingly. “I really don’t know why there are people like you who see their dignity as higher than anything else. Can dignity help you survive?”“People like us care about our conscience the most. If our conscience is corrupted, we’ll never have peace no matter how well we live,
“Conrad!” Esme yelled out in sadness as she could feel the pain in her right eye.“They personally said that she did it!”“That’s why I hope that you can prove that she didn’t!”Esme shook her head. “I don’t want anything to happen to Fia, but it makes me sad to see how you’re siding with her like this.“Conrad… I don’t have anything anymore. I lost my career, I lost my health, and I lost you. But Fia has everything! She has your love, your child, and Doctor Evans’s love for her!”“Enough!” Conrad could feel his fury rising again when he thought of Jason Evans.“Conrad, you weren’t like this in the past. Now that Fia has become like this, how can you tolerate her like this? She had committed a crime, so she must be punished.”“She must be very afraid after being left in the station for a few days. That’s already enough punishment!” Conrad could feel himself losing control even though his breathing became heavy.He didn’t care if Fia did it or not. He only wanted to get her out.
Beth looked at his expression and knew that she couldn’t force him too much.She then slowly said, “The case is going to be brought to court tomorrow. If you feel sorry for Fia, we can forget about it. We’ll leave this to the law…”“Fine. We’ll announce the engagement tomorrow.”Esme let out a sigh of relief and looked at Beth gratefully. Then, she asked in a pretentious tone, “So… What about Fia?”“The entire Gryphon will know about your engagement tomorrow. Will the outside world think you’re committing polygamy? That won’t do well for all three of us.”“Maybe we can forget about this, Conrad? I believe that the law will prove Fia’s innocence, won’t it?”“When the reporters ask about it, I'll tell them that Fia and I have already divorced!” Conrad left.Esme let out a victorious smile.‘Fia… The day has finally come!’“Don’t be so happy yet, Esme. He still hasn’t confirmed his divorce with Fia!” Beth said regretfully. “If I had known that he could be persuaded so easily, I w
Fia violently brushed her lips that he had kissed. She should have hated it, but her heart beat faster and her face blushed.She hated all of it!How could she be so cheap after falling in love with someone?What must she do to be able to live like a human?“Conrad. You’ll know tomorrow that you shouldn’t have suspected me, that I’m innocent!”In the evening, Jason took a woman wearing a mask to visit Fia.Priscilla stopped them and so Jason made a call to the assistant director to tell Priscilla to let them in.She let them in unwillingly while Priscilla guarded outside. “Hmph! So what if you visit them? She’s going to be finished tomorrow.”“Fia!” When the woman entered the room, she removed her mask and ran toward Fia.“Eileen,” Fia said with a smile and held her hands. “How did things go?”Eileen nodded and said, “I’ve already asked Kent to find all the necessary evidence. Once the court starts tomorrow, we can then present all the evidence to the judge. That’ll show them
“Ha.” Priscilla let out a sneer. “My uncle and aunt no longer want to pursue the case. Aren’t you happy?”“How’s that possible?” It was like a story to her.They wished that she would disappear. Why would they simply let this chance pass them by?“I don’t have time for this. Just leave. If you want to know more, go ask them yourselves!”Priscilla went over and dragged Fia off the bed and pushed her wheelchair in front of her.“Use your wheelchair. Otherwise, if you knock over anything, I’ll be the one they’re going to blame later.”“No thanks.” Since her pregnancy had stabilized, she didn’t need to sit in a wheelchair anymore.“Fine, but this wheelchair belongs to the hospital. Return it yourself. Once you’re in the car, I’ll put the wheelchair into the trunk.”Fia glanced at Priscilla, feeling that something wasn’t right.Priscilla pushed her wheelchair and as she followed her, Fia booked a car through the Grab app.Luckily, there was a Grab car nearby. When they left the st
“…”He was so talkative.“Maybe you can leave your contact with me? If I encounter something, maybe I can ask your family for help. Don’t worry, I won’t ask for your help for free. I…”“Watch out!” Just as Fia wanted to tell him to shut up and focus on his driving, she saw a truck driving straight toward them.The driver would glance at Fia every now and then through the rearview mirror. She was so pretty.All men enjoyed such a pretty sight, and it was this kind of split-second moment that was the most dangerous.“Oh hell no! What’s wrong with that driver?!” The middle-aged man cursed and steered away from the truck as best as he could.However, the truck was too fast and too big. It was like a starving great white opening up its bloody jaws at them.The middle-aged man had already steered as much as he could and there was nothing else he could do.There was a huge bang as everything froze for two seconds, and all she could hear was the screeching in her ears!Fia was comple
But now, he was busy with the engagement with his first love. They were talking about their wedding date.She could hear the death throes from her heart. She was dying.If she died, she no longer had to face anyone or anything.‘Mom, Grandma, I’m going to meet you now.‘Can you wait for me a little bit more?’…“Move! Move, all of you!”The ambulance and the fire truck finally appeared and the people in the area were evacuated.Jason put on his mask and looked at the deformed car, not realizing who was at the back of it.As a doctor, he had to be calm.The front of the car had been damaged, and the driver was stuck inside. His organs could easily be injured from the pressure. It was very dangerous!He could die at any time! They were fighting Death itself for more time!That was why he pulled his sleeves up and was prepared to first remove the deformed, front part of the car to save the driver first together with a few firemen.Meanwhile, two other firemen were going to he
