“Ah!”

The woman screamed out in pain. Conrad let go and she knelt down in front of him.

It was at this time that the light was suddenly turned on and he saw who it was.

“It’s you?”

Esme knelt in front of him with a pitiful expression on her face.

“You almost killed me just now, Conrad.”

There were terrifying fingerprints around her long, pale neck.

Conrad frowned and said, “I didn’t know it was you.”

He looked around the room and realized that it was the same room that Fia was in before. It also had a washroom.

However, why did they lock him up together with Esme?

“Is there something you want to tell me?” His voice was cold.

“I… I didn’t know who came in just now. I just wanted to move to the door. I didn’t know you were there either.”

“You didn’t know?” Conrad looked at her in disbelief. “You didn’t know or did you deliberately get close to me?”

“Conrad, how can you think that of me? I’m not that wicked,” Esme said, still kneeling on the ground as carefully grabbed Conrad

    “Hi, Fia. How are you doing lately?”“Where did you get that picture!” Fia angrily asked.Priscilla laughed. “What? Anxious?”“How did the two of them get together?!”“Make a guess?”“Priscilla, what are you up to?!”“I would like to invite you to come and watch a stream with me. How about it?”Fia had just wanted to say yes, but she remembered what Silas told him before he left.“I’m sorry. Not interested!”“Really, now? Isn’t it because you’re injured and he can’t touch you, so he can only find someone else outside?”“He’s not someone like that!” Fia was so angry that her chest was hurting.“Oh, right. I heard you had a miscarriage and lost your child. How very sad. Despite being so careful in the interrogation room, you still encountered something terrible as soon as you stepped outside.“Oh, am I not supposed to say something about this? Fia, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but it seems like even the gods can’t let you simply steal someone else’s boyfriend. That’

    “Silly girl. Why are you so worried? Conrad’s a man. If he doesn't want to, no one can force herself on him, right?”“Eileen, you didn’t know what happened. She’s drugged him before. If she had increased the dose…”The more Fia thought about it, the more worried she became.Eileen became serious and said, “Why not get someone else to visit him?”“Who? Who can visit him?”About twenty minutes later, at the police station.Jason walked into the station wearing his coat and carrying a medical kit.“I want to see Conrad Maxwell!”When the officer responsible for registration saw Jason, he said, “He’s not available to be visited as he’s our prime suspect for a case.”Jason slammed the medical kit on the table and said, “I’m his attending physician and I’m telling you that he has severe gastrointestinal perforation! Without treatment, he’ll die from shock and bleeding at any time! Also, he had just been injured a few hours ago by a pedicab and he has severe external and internal inj

    “What? Not happy to see me?” Jason sneered. “Unfortunately, it’s not up to you to choose.”Conrad glared at him with wide eyes and yelled angrily, “Scram!”The hand that was holding the cigarette was trembling.Jason snorted coldly and swayed the medical kit in his hand.“Scram, huh? You better think twice because no one can save you now other than me.” Jason sneered again. “The interrogation room’s door is just too tough. No one can hear you scream, and you can’t break it apart too. To the point that you must run into the washroom. How sad, Mr. Maxwell.”Conrad choked. He got tricked.He hadn’t noticed the scent from the very beginning. By the time he realized that the drugs were already working on him, he had lost half his strength. How could he have broken down the door?“Where’s Fia? Does she know…?” Before he could finish, he saw a woman in a pink nurse uniform walking in.He could feel the flame burning inside of him as his eyes turned from slightly red to a bloody red.

    “What picture?”Fia took out her phone and walked over to show it to him.When Conrad saw the picture, he was full of disgust.“Who sent it to you?”“Even you feel disgusted when it’s you in the picture. Outsiders will only get more ideas out of this,” Fia whispered. “I really hate to see both of you in the same picture, even if nothing happened.”Conrad could only stare at Fia with a frown.“Once this is over, can we just send her away?”“Send her away?” Fia cracked a smile. “After what she did to me, she will be punished to the full extent of the law!“Oh, Conrad. Did your heart soften again? Did she beg you just now? Maybe she cried and sobbed?”Conrad frowned and said, “She didn’t. Can you please not think that I’m that weak?”“I want to, but I can’t control my own brain.” Fia forced a smile. “Take care.”Fia had just left the interrogation room when she met up with Silas.“Oh, why are you here, madam?!” Silas’s expression immediately changed. ‘Did she find out?’“Your

    “…” Fia was completely confused. However, a car honk could be heard. When she saw Jason roll down the car window, she quickly ran over.Finn’s eyes followed Fia as she got into the car and then went to Jason who was driving, and his smile became even wider.Jason nodded to him before rolling up the car window.“Evans, he said that he’s the director! Is he joking? Since when is a director so free?”Jason chuckled. “Then you’ll be disappointed. He is indeed the director. He just got appointed.”“What?”“What is it?”“But he’s so strange. He came to talk to me and asked me some questions!”Fia didn’t understand what was happening. “Why would a director like him speak to a commoner like me?”Jason was also quite confused, but he said honestly, “Mr. Parker is a good officer. Gryphon needs to get rid of all the corrupt officials. The duty he’s been given is quite heavy.”“You know him?”“My dad does.” Jason paused. “The reason that I was able to see you together with Eileen last t

    Finn placed his hands behind his back with a detaching expression on his face. “We can forget about the formalities. I’m here to personally make things right.”Conrad didn’t get angry because he refused to shake his hand. Most of those who became officials had their own quirks.Finn glared at the woman tied to the bed who was letting out shameless sounds.“We’ll continue this somewhere else.” With that, he took out a strip of pills from his pocket and gave it to his assistant. “Feed the woman.”“Of course, sir!” The assistant looked at Conrad. He was not as retrained as the director. “Mr. Maxwell, originally the director had prepared this for you.”Conrad was stunned before thanking him sincerely. “Thank you.”“Go now!” Finn said to his assistant in a harsh tone before waving at Conrad. “This is now my area of responsibility. I have the duty to see things through now that something like this has happened. I will do what I can.”They then went to the meeting room. Finn sat in t

    “Mr. Maxwell, can you please show mercy to my brother and his daughter for the sake of your relationship with Esme?” Hank cried out in sorrow.Beth quickly said, “Please save Esme. We only have one daughter.”“Enough!” Hank stared at his wife. “Do you know because of your love for your daughter, not only is my brother going to get fired, but he’s also going to get punished as well?”“So, your brother is important, but my daughter isn’t?!”When Conrad saw that the two of them were going to start fighting, he was worried that they would be too noisy for Fia. He said coldly, “They’re simply suffering from the consequences of their own actions. No one can save you. Leave!”Thump!Hank knelt down on the ground directly, and that shocked Beth.“Yes, Esme is suffering her own consequences. But my brother has never hurt anyone as a police officer! He even helped a lot of people in Gryphon! You’ll know it if you investigate! We’re the ones at fault this time! You shouldn’t have let your

    “Fia, I’ll treat you well for the rest of my life. I won’t let you walk the same path your mother did.”Fia bit her lips even as she trembled and her tears began to roll, her vision blurring.She couldn’t see his handsome face anymore, and her final defenses crumbled as she caved into his arms.“Fia, I…”She opened her mouth and bit into his shoulder, cutting him off.She put a lot of strength into it and soon, she could taste iron.Conrad was feeling a bit sad, so he simply let her bite into him while he stroked her back.“I’m sorry for misunderstanding you all those times. I should have seen through everything earlier. I should have treated you better earlier.”In the past two days, he had found out too much about Esme. The more he found out, the more he realized that everything that she said about Fia seemingly by accident was fake.She was a naïve and kind girl, but she made it sound like she was someone jealous, extreme, calculative, and a robber.And the one thing that

    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
