Conrad felt weird. The weight of the ten of them was nothing.“No.”“But I think it’s quite heavy. Why don’t you let me help you?”“It’s fine.” Conrad dodged Fia’s little claws.Fia looked at him, taking a few steps away and stomping on the ground. “Fine, I’ll be honest with you. I’m not worried about you getting tired. I’m feeling pity for my mouth!”Conrad was even more confused.“Pfft!” Both Tiger and Silas let out a laugh.Conrad looked at the two of them frigidly.Silas quickly waved his hand and said, “I’m sorry, sir. I couldn’t, sorry. Hahahaha!”“Are you crazy?!” Conrad said to Silas and then led Fia to a nearby bench further in front.He put the food on the bench. “Eat it, then.”“Thanks.”“Wait.” Conrad stopped her. He was worried that the sauce would burn her.Fia was feeling sad because she thought that he wouldn’t let her eat. Then she saw Conrad quickly untie the plastic bag and take out a box for her.“Thanks!” Her eyes became brilliant as she accepted it.
Several minutes later, Conrad saw how the twins started to fight for a black pudding.He suspected that the two kids were fighting over it because they wanted to suck up to his wife.“Don’t fight, don’t fight!” Fia stopped the siblings from fighting and gave them a piece. “There’s enough for everyone. Don’t fight.”Sharon then said, “Give my brother and I one each!”Fia poked their head with a smile. “This is just an appetizer. If you eat too much, you won’t be able to eat the rest of the delicious food later!”“Okay!” Sharon and William immediately accepted her arrangement quietly.Both of them were thinking that if the first food on the list was already so delicious, there were probably even better ones at the back!“Silas, Tiger! Come here and take a bite! I bought a lot. Don’t you worry!” Fia invited the two of them.Silas and Tiger originally wanted to refuse, but then they saw how happy the twins ate it!Kids love to eat and they wouldn’t eat if they didn’t like it! That
There were a lot of people there and all of them were looking at the middle-aged man wearing a cowboy hat.The man was grilling all kinds of meat on his grill while humming a song. He really looked quite wild.He then yelled out in an accent from his hometown, “Beef, lambs, pork, chicken, squids! Whether it’s flyin’ in thuh air, crawlin’ on thuh ground, swimmin’ in thuh bayou, ah’v them all!”Silas and Tiger each held one of the child’s hands, while Fia dragged Conrad to the front.Conrad was quite tall and large, so he protected Fia. She wasn’t pushed around by the people around her like in the past.When the people around them saw Conrad’s handsome and cold face, they quietly opened a way for him.When Fia saw what happened, she felt that her boyfriend's power had just gone off the roof. She quickly held his arm tightly.When she came here together with Eileen when they were still students, they would be pushed around everywhere.They came to the front of the grill which was
“Yay! You’re so handsome!” Sharon yelled out.William also yelled out in agreement. “Handsome!”Fia then asked with a smile, “Do you want him to be your godfather then?”“No!” The two of them refused at the same time.Conrad frowned. “Why?”While he never had the thought, he was still humiliated!“My dad said that your temper is worse than his!” Sharon said with a straight face. “We want to have a godfather with a good temper!”William nodded again. “That’s right!”Conrad had no words.Fia was worried that he would get angry, so she quickly changed the topic. “Sharon, William, can you still eat?”“Yes!” They replied at the same time.“Alright! Next one!” This time, Fia brought them to a store selling snow cones.She ordered six snow cones that were topped with nuts and fruits. It looked very appetizing with how colorful it looked too. Fia then went next door and came back with a bowl of hot soup with skewered food items inside. Originally, it was meant to be hot and spicy
The two of them went back home hand in hand.Under the night sky, Fia could see that the man’s face was covered with a layer of moonlight. He looked like something mysterious.Fia couldn’t help but stop in her tracks as she stared at him.“What is it?” Conrad turned around and looked at her.His eyes were so deep yet so bright under the cover of the night sky.Her heart thumped faster.“Conrad.”“Yeah?”“I think you’re getting more and more attractive.”Conrad raised an eyebrow and asked, “I’m not attractive before this?”“You were! You were very attractive!” Fia suddenly became cheerful and ran into his arms. Conrad held her tightly and then picked her up like a princess.“It’s getting late. We should go back home and wash up.”After they came back home, Mrs. Whitley and Mrs. Taylor both stopped chatting and asked them if they wanted to eat anything.Conrad didn’t reply to them and simply took Fia up to the second floor quickly.Fia’s face turned red as she hid in his
Conrad shook his head and pulled her into his arms, and simply squeezed her tightly without saying a word.Fia panicked. “What’s with you? It’s so early in the morning.”“I’ll remember, Fia.”“About what?”“About you. About us. Everything,” Conrad said sternly.Fia pecked his chin. “Then don’t get dementia when you’re old. Otherwise, you won’t remember me.”“You too.” Conrad took in the unique scent she had on her.There seemed to be a firework bursting out inside of Fia’s heart as she held his wide back.“Then we promise.”“Yes.”The two of them stayed like that for a while. After having their breakfast, the two of them prepared to go to the company.There was a car outside, surrounded by Conrad’s bodyguards.“Mr. Maxwell, Mr. Parker said that he wanted to see you,” one of the bodyguards said to Conrad.Conrad squeezed Fia’s hands. “Do you want to see him?”“Might as well.”The door opened, and the person sitting inside the car walked out.Conall was wearing a gray out
She didn’t say those words out loud.She had read some articles about love. One of them said that women shouldn’t keep on professing their love out loud. A man would treat it as nothing if you do it too much.“And what?” Conrad could clearly feel his heart skip half a beat as his eyes tinted with excitement.Fia let go of him and put his hands behind her, walking toward the car that was parked inside the courtyard.She walked toward the driver’s seat, waiting for him to catch up with her. She then extended her hand for the key.Conrad stopped. “You want to drive?”“Yeah.”“No.”“Why can’t I do it? I have a license!”Conrad looked at her speechlessly and remembered how she drove to the Mannings’ mansion and rammed the car into their gate. He became quite scared because of it.Fia ran toward him and then questioned him with a straight face. “You remembered the time I went to the Mannings to look for you and rammed into their gate, didn’t you?”Conrad gulped and didn’t say anyt
Once Conrad believed that she could drive, she stepped on the gas.Conrad realized what was happening and said, “Slower.”“Don’t worry!” Fia rolled down all the car windows. As the autumn wind blew, her long hair flailed wildly in the wind.Conrad looked at her, stunned. He always thought that she had always been an obedient and calm girl. He didn’t know that she had a side like that.She was enveloped by an aura of feral frigidity. She seemed to have transformed into another person.They sped directly toward Maxwell Corporation. Conrad finally had faith in Fia’s driving skills.She had mastered how to turn and drift and even cut through other cars. She maintained the best distance between their car and others.“Whew! I haven’t had so much fun in such a long time!” Fia unbuckled the seatbelt and let out a sigh.She turned around to look at Conrad. “No wonder you men love to speed! While it feels great to speed, I can’t drive like that every day. I’ll get tired so easily and my
