Conrad looked up to see Tiger carrying Fia in, and he immediately rushed forward to take her into his arms before placing her on the couch.Tiger left quietly and closed the door behind him.Fia sensed that something was wrong with Conrad, and she reached out to touch his face and pinch it."It feels like you're in a bad mood."Conrad thought about Britney, and he couldn't help but ask, "Who was that person Doctor Sally brought you to see today?"Fia's heart skipped a beat. When she thought about how Tiger had followed her around the entire day, Fia thought Conrad was unhappy because she had seen Jason.She hurriedly told the story of Jason and Britney's parents matching the two up."Oh?" Conrad asked with a raised brow. "So, did those two see eye to eye?""No?""They didn't catch each other's eyes?" Conrad was a little unhappy at the answer. He wondered when a woman would come along to take Jason away."Britney has someone on her mind, and her family forced this blind date
Conrad thought again of the delusion that the picture had given him and covered her mouth with his lips, not wanting to hear her mention someone else.A kiss that started off gently gradually became more intense and heated, easily making one dizzy....When Britney arrived home, she greeted the servants politely before flying upstairs.Once in the bedroom, she closed the doors and windows, pulled down even the curtains, and made an international call."I'm so annoyed!"The first thing out of her mouth was a complaint.The person on the other end was in Mapleland and asked in a lazy tone, "What? Was the blind date not good enough for you?""Your sister brought that b*tch with her!""Esme." The man's voice turned cold and hard. "That's my sister you're talking about. Watch your tone."Britney took a deep breath to calm herself. "Didn't you say that I'm Britney, now and forever? And that I will only ever be Britney? What's the meaning of you calling my name?""I'll assume that
Britney said, “It’s alright. I’m used to it.”Barbara asked, “Then are you planning to find an area to continue in research?”“No.” Britney frowned. “I’m a little tired.”“Then, what do you plan to do?”“I still don’t know.”Barbara looked at her melancholic sister. She had grown taller and fuller and became much better looking.To her, her sister was timid and was easily bullied in school.She wanted to protect this little sister of hers.She suggested, “Do you want to give Maxwell Corporation a try?”Britney felt her heart waver, but weakly shook her head.“Maxwell Corporation is so amazing. What would someone like me who does research do there?”“If you don’t mind it, you can be my assistant.” Her previous assistant had resigned and she found it annoying to have an assistant so she did not hire a new one. If her younger sister wanted in, she could directly bring her in.With her current position in the Maxwell Corporation, she could make her own arrangements if she wante
“What do you mean?” Conrad asked.“Should we send Madam Barbara’s sister to another department to avoid any negative effects on Madam Barbara’s reputation?”“Barbara herself isn’t even worried about her own reputation, so what are you worrying for?” Conrad’s attitude was a little heartless. “If work progress is affected by her sister, the both of them can just leave together!”Fia was speechless.Her husband was so stern. She wanted to say something but did not quite dare to.As a wife, she should not meddle too much.Forget it, she’d just listen quietly. Her husband’s words were not wrong.Since Madam Barbara dared to directly hire her sister to be her assistant, then she should have the boldness to bear all the consequences!Therefore, Britney easily entered Maxwell Corporation and became Barbara’s assistant.***In the afternoon, the hour for lunch.Silas went to the canteen to order food for Conrad and Fia, and coincidentally met Barbara leading Britney along.He looked
The matter of Britney entering the company passed just like that and thanks to Barbara, the entire Foreign Affairs Department had a very good attitude toward her and nobody dared to bully or order her about.She arranged work for Barbara properly every day and did not have any free time.Every day when it was lunch time, she would subconsciously search for a figure in the canteen.When she saw Silas, she would greet him obediently.In a blink of an eye, quite a few days passed and Fia was about to sit for her exams.Conrad personally called the Ministry of Education and without expending too much effort, he was able to arrange a chance for Fia to take the exams.Fia wanted to end things fast and so arranged it to be the next day.The Ministry of Education and the dean of her previous university personally invigilated. There were even surveillance cameras, and everything was done properly without any intention for favoritism or cheating.“Silas, what time is it?”Conrad sat out
“Alright!” Sally was quite happy. She had thought that with Conrad’s character, he would not go, and would not have allowed Fia to go as well.After all, going to Jason and Britney’s blind date last time was a situation where she did not tell them in advance.At night, Fia brought up her appointment with Sally the next day.Conrad frowned but thinking that she would get her results tomorrow, in order to ensure she wasn’t too worried, he would accompany her and participate in her gathering, which seemed to work too.***At ten o’clock, Conrad and Fia departed for the restaurant Sally had booked.Sally was already there, and while talking to her brother, she caught a glimpse of the people at the restaurant entrance and immediately went forward to welcome them.“Fia, did your exam go well?”“Results aren’t out yet.”Sally patted her slender arm. “You like designing so much and the drafts you draw are amazing! I’m sure you will be able to get good results!”Fia was a design major
Britney’s gaze was a little cool and seemed to be complaining a bit.Conrad faintly swept her a glance, treating her gaze as just blaming him for spouting nonsense.He had indeed said so on purpose. Who cares about how she was with Peter.He only wanted to quickly find Jason a partner so that he would stop pining for his wife.“Fia.” Britney looked at Fia somewhat fearfully. “Who is he?”Fia gently lifted the corner of her lips. “My husband.”“Oh, oh. Fia’s husband.” Britney seemed to casually ask, “Sally, do you and Jason know Fia’s husband?”“What are you saying?” Peter replied indifferently. “Who in Gryphon dares to not know Mr Maxwell?”Britney secretly bit her lip, like a little lady secretly in love, carefully looking at Peter.Her eyes also seemed to contain a little delight. “Peter, turns out you also know Fia’s husband. Then in the future, we will all be friends.”“Just who is your friend?” Conrad said mercilessly.Fia knew his temper and only smiled apologetically
“No need.” Conrad insisted on personally bringing Fia to the restroom.Britney quietly followed behind the both of them, staring at him holding Fia’s wrist and quietly pinched the palm of her hand.When they reached the ladies, Fia pushed Conrad lightly.“Wait outside.”“Alright, if there’s anything, call me.”Britney immediately went forward. “Fia, let me help you in.”After dealing with their business, and Fia came out, Britney helped her to the sink to wash her hands.“Thank you, Britney.” Thinking of Conrad’s attitude, she apologized. “Don’t take it to heart. He is a person with deep thoughts, so it is hard for him to accept other people’s kind intentions.”“It’s fine. As long as you know that I’m sincere, that’s enough. How he sees it does not matter.” Britney’s tone was light and friendly.After Fia washed her hands, she led her to the hand dryer to dry her hands.After that, she took out her own hand moisturizer and helped her to apply it.Fia smelled the peach blosso
