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
“Oh no! How did the director’s office catch on fire?!”“I can smell the scent of cable burning.”“An electrical fire?”“Where’s the main switch?! Go switch it off!”The entire department was thrown into chaos as they didn’t know where the switch box was and kept on searching for it.Conrad entered the huge office and saw a group of people searching around. He looked at the director’s office, and it seemed to be filled with smoke and there was a shadow of a figure inside.He immediately turned around and went to the corridor, found the switch box that was hidden behind a painting, and cut off the power.He then called security to extinguish the fire before running back to the department.“Out, all of you! Now!”When they saw Conrad, all of them seemed to have got back their senses and left. A few of them followed him to the director’s office. In the smoky office, there was a woman coughing inside.Conrad looked at the woman trying to save the folders inside the drawers, but
Annie was shocked and speechless.She really didn’t understand. He was so gentle and attentive when it came to Fia. Why wouldn’t he show them any respect at all when it was their turn?!What could Fia offer? Why was he so deep in his love for her?“I… I’m not.” Britney walked out with her head low. She looked like a mess.Her voice trembled as she said, “Mr. Maxwell, I’m a staff of the company. I have the duty to protect the company.“Britney!” Annie ran over to Britney. “Just look at you right now. Why must you lower yourself like this?”“It’s okay.” Britney pulled Annie’s hand with her own trembling hand. “I’m fine.”The fire in the director’s office was extinguished very quickly thanks to everyone’s help.More than half of the documents from the drawer had been destroyed. When Britney saw how bad the office looked, she cried again.She cried and said, “My sister is resting lately and told me to do my best here, but I couldn’t do anything right.”Annie turned and looked in
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
