Fia lowered her eyes and didn’t say a word as she looked at the ground.She already felt it. She didn’t hate it, but she was simply helpless. There was nothing much she could do.“I heard from Tiger that you didn’t get married because of love. I’m worried that Conrad wouldn’t be able to control himself if he was seduced by too many things.” Mary slowed down before continuing, “Fia, you sure there’s love between the two of you?”Fia raised her eyes and looked at her without a word.“I hope you won’t mind me saying this. I can tell that you really like Conrad. I’m worried that you’ll suffer.”“Mrs. Lane, I can’t just run away because I’m afraid that he’ll leave me in the future, right?” Fia said with a smile. However, it was a smile that wasn’t from her heart.She had been trying to ignore the worry in her heart.However, there were always people trying to remind her.Mary understood what she was trying to say and said awkwardly, “I’m not trying to start a fight between you two,
“Tyler, you and I are on the same journey now,” Conrad said with a dark expression.Tyler smiled awkwardly. “I’m sorry.”What was he thinking? Conrad was the one who saved him all those years ago.“Stop smiling like an idiot,” Conrad said in disdain.“Yes, yes, I’m a fool. I didn’t realize that you’re trying to help me,” Tyler said excitedly as he stood up rubbing his hands. “Then you should make the arrangements to send William to that Hellish Training Camp of yours.”Conrad didn’t move and said with an icy expression, “I have to make it clear first. Other than the nutrition side of things, there will also be some physical training. Once he’s in the camp, he’s no longer the scion of the Lane household. It’s going to be very tough.”Tyler frowned. While he knew that Conrad wouldn’t lie to him and that his son wouldn’t be in any danger, he was worried that his wife wouldn’t allow it.“I’ll talk with Mary about it later tonight.”“No rush,” Conrad said as he finished his coffee.
Fia jumped off the pedicab and was going to take the two children off the back.“Madam, watch out!” Tiger’s powerful voice boomed.Fia’s heart tightened, and she turned around to scan what was happening. She noticed a toy motorcycle heading straight toward her.It was as big as an adult’s motorcycle. While the ones in the amusement park were usually meant for adults accompanying their children, it would still be quite dangerous if they ran into someone.“Watch out!” Mary cried out in shock.Fia measured the distance with her eyes. If she were to jump off to the side, she should still be able to avoid it, but the two children would be in danger.“Madam! Move!” Tiger only cared about his boss’ wife and no one else.He couldn’t understand how she could maintain her innocence after she had suffered so much.Fia held the two children, turned around, and was going to jump to the side.However, two five-year-old children weighed around seventy pounds. She was too slow, and that motor
“We’re sorry. We’re so sorry. We didn’t realize that an accident like this could happen.” The manager of the amusement park and the staff apologized.“We’re going to report to our boss about this and fully compensate you.”Conrad’s expression was both cold and violent. Tyler said angrily, “You shouldn’t operate an amusement park if you can’t even maintain the visitors’ safety!”Conrad then walked away with Fia in his arms. “Tiger, tell Silas to immediately acquire the amusement park and fire all the staff!”“Yes, sir!” Tiger quickly called Silas and then investigated that toy motorbike.The manager looked at Conrad and recognized him as the boss of the biggest company in Gryphon.He instantly knew that they were done for and quickly called his boss.Fia turned around and glanced at the manager. She shook Conrad’s arm.“Anyone can encounter an accident. Why don’t we give him another chance?”Conrad looked at her with mixed feelings and patted her head. “Fia, don’t get soft-hear
“Pfft!” Tyler let out a laugh thanks to her joke. “That’s right, Mary. Conrad is someone from the upper class. As his wife, she’s also someone rich and pretty. You don’t have to feel pity for her. She has a much better life than a lot of people!”Mary awkwardly nodded but still looked at Fia with motherly love.Fia shook her head helplessly and then looked at Sharon and William, who were drinking the takeaway.“Is it nice?”The two children happily nodded. They liked her even more!Not only did they like her, but they also trusted her!“Pretty lady, where do you live?” Sharon asked with a bright smile.“Why? You want to be my daughter?”“Sure, but I already have my own daddy and mommy.” Sharon looked at Conrad’s dark expression and then waved at Fia.Fia walked over and then got closer.“Pretty lady… Is it okay if you become my brother’s and my godmother?”“Sure!” Fia smiled happily. However, she then looked at Tyler and Mary worriedly.“Can I become your children’s godmoth
“Mr. Lane, have you already found a place to stay?” Conrad drank the coconut drink and asked dryly.Tyler raised an eyebrow when he saw his improved mood, and quickly said, “I’m still looking for a suitable place.”Conrad then asked in disdain, “So, you’re waiting for me to jump into the hole that you’ve dug?”“Well, you don’t have to put it that way. You need to sell the other mansions in Midas Heights anyway, right? Why don’t you sell it to me?”“The one over there. I’ll sell it to you!” Conrad didn’t hide his intentions, because he also had the same thought.He knew Fia. From now on, she would probably look for the kids, so it was better for them to stay closer.“Maybe you can give me a discount?” Tyler said in a scheming tone.“No!” The four of them coming all the way from Oceania had already affected his status in Fia’s heart. Now he wanted his money too?!Of course, Tyler knew that the mansions in this neighborhood were very well received. He had been asking around in the
“He used to stay in that mansion before and a lot of things had happened there! Aren’t you afraid that you’ll get cursed if you and your family move in?!”Tyler raised his eyebrow and looked at the woman that looked like someone subservient with slightly cold eyes.“Are you an enemy of his?”“No.” Britney shook her head. “I just don’t want you to be deceived.”Tyler sneered and a mischievous smile appeared on his face as he got closer to Britney.The two of them were getting so close to the point that his breath could reach her face, but Britney didn’t feel things becoming amorous. Instead, she could feel fear.“Your face and your mind don’t fit.”Britney was silent.“You’ve been waiting for me here, right?” Tyler smiled with a sneer. “You know what my last name is and that I bought the mansion owned by Mr. Maxwell. Are you investigating us?”Britney frowned and moved away from Tyler.“Tsk!”He waved his hand, opened his door, and then started the engine as soon as he got in
Peter’s eyes seemed possessed as he strangled Esme by the neck.“If you want me to protect you, then you’ll have to do something brutal enough to make me believe you!”“What… do you mean?” Esme was scared by what was happening.“Start a fire.”Esme caught the madness in Peter’s eyes. She choked and asked, “Wh… Where?”“You can start a fire where you work.” Peter loosened the hand that was choking Esme by the throat and patted her face. “Do it stealthily. Don’t let anyone catch you doing it.”…Tyler had just returned to the mansion and checked the entire place thoroughly inside and out.The original fixtures were very well done, and nothing was damaged. It was also very clean.“What are you doing?” Mary asked when she saw Tyler sniffing around like a hound as she came back after spending half a day accompanying the children at their new kindergarten. Tyler glanced at her and asked, “Sharon and William got used to the new kindergarten?”“They’re quite shy at the beginning. B
