Tiger and Silas quickly got back to work. Meanwhile, Sophia was showing her displeasure at her boss’s actions.“You shouldn’t have been alone with that wh*re.”Conrad frowned and glared at Sophia. “You said you saw her mole. What color is it?”“What color could a mole be? Of course, it’s black!” Sophia grumbled.“The mole that’s on Britney isn’t black, it’s red!” Conrad said.“What?” Sophia was slightly stunned. “Who told you that?”Conrad didn’t want to continue the topic. “Locate Fia using her phone.”“…Sir.” Sophia quietly showed him Fia’s purse. “She doesn’t have her phone.”Meanwhile, after entering the alley and reaching another street, Fia took a taxi to Gryphonheart Hospital. Gryphonheart Hospital.Peter had just witnessed Esme getting sent into the surgery room. He waited outside, worried. With no one else to talk to, he gave his sister a call.“Sally, something happened to her.”Sally originally wanted to ignore her brother, but when she heard the worry and guilt
Fia let out a smirk. “Sally wasn’t deceived by anyone. You’re the one that’s been deceived.”Peter extended his hands and held Fia by her shoulders, squeezing hard. “If you know what’s good for you, you better shut up!”Fia could feel her bones almost cracking under the stress, but she continued to smile and calmly said, “You have known her for so long, and you still don’t understand her? She always faked things to get her way. She can act so well that she can win the Oscars.”“Don’t smear her name!” Peter said with a cold demeanor. “She has our child. There’s no need to risk her and her child’s life!”Fia chuckled as she lowered her head and then looked at him pitifully.“To be honest, I don’t like you. If it isn’t because of Sally, I don’t even want to waste my time telling you this.”“Shut up!” Peter wished he could choke Fia to death. What right did the daughter of his enemy have to talk to him in such a high-and-mighty attitude?!“Why don’t we make a bet,” Fia whispered to
Peter scoffed. “Did I say that my current girlfriend is Esme and not Britney?”Sophia frowned and gave it a thought. He really didn’t say that.She then whispered to Fia, “What should we do?” That was a waste of opportunity… They didn’t get anything conclusive from him.“It’s fine.” Fia stroked her neck and gave Peter a grin. “Remember our bet. She has no love for you. You’re just a tool for her.”“Stop creating a rift between us!” Peter said in a dark tone.Fia raised an eyebrow. “You’re a smart man. It’s easy for you to find out about everything. The only problem here is your own mental clarity. That you refuse to see the truth.”Peter didn’t want to continue to speak to her anymore and said, “You’ll eventually pay for all the sins that the Parkers have committed!”Fia couldn’t help but frown as Conall appeared in her mind.She didn’t know much about Conall, so she didn’t know what he did to Peter.“I have nothing to do with him.”“The sins of the father are to be laid upon
If this was such an easy thing to solve, it wouldn’t take him so long to finish it.He had sent his men to investigate this both on the surface and in the shadows, but he was stopped. Even the Hellish Training Camp had been dragged into this. It was no longer something that simple!Peter suddenly laughed as he lay on the floor. “Hahaha! I have to hand it to you, to be able to see it all so clearly!”Conrad glared at him, wanting to really kick Peter to death.Fia held his waist, and gave Tiger and Silas a look.The two of them exchanged a glance and walked over to pick Peter up.They were just leaving when Conrad coldly said, “Break his hands!”Tiger and Silas were stunned.Conrad continued, “Tell the doctor that there’s no need for anesthetic during the surgery!”Breaking Peter’s hand and then going through surgery without any anesthesia…They could feel the chills in their bones just thinking about it.After Peter was carried away, Conrad turned to look at Sophia coldly.
When the doctor saw Conrad’s dissatisfied expression, she quickly said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Maxwell. We are living in a much better time. As long as your wife eats well and doesn’t get too tired, as well as go for checkups on time, your twins will be healthy!”Conrad folded the results and put them in his pocket, and prepared to carry Fia home.It was at this time that Silas and Tiger ran in.“Sir, Miss Thomas is threatening to jump off the building,” the two of them said with worried expressions.“Clean it up quickly after she’s dead!” Conrad responded in a wintry tone. Whether she was Britney Thomas or Esme Manning, her death had nothing to do with him.Silas then carefully said, “Someone released a video of her trying to buy jewelry at the store earlier. Now, everyone on the internet is saying that you and the madam are being too vicious. That you’re harassing her, making her fall down the escalator by making her mentally unstable.”Tiger continued, “At this juncture, this will
The doctors didn’t give Peter any anesthetic. On his way there, he couldn’t help but bite his tongue and moan.The bodyguards had asked the doctors and nurses to leave as Conrad and Fia went in.Meanwhile, they dumped Peter on the floor together with the stretcher.Conrad looked Esme in the eyes. “I’ll give you the choices. Jump, or the prison!”Esme’s tears began to fall. While most of it was out of sadness, there was also envy and rage.“Why are you treating me like this, Mr. Maxwell?!”“I don’t have the time to waste with you. Either jump or prison! Just based on you hiring someone to edit the security camera footage and defaming us as well as affecting Maxwell Corporation’s finances, that’s already enough to send you to prison for three years!”Esme’s heart began to tremble in fear the moment she heard of prison.Forget about prison, just staying in the interrogation room was already bad enough!She would rather die than go to prison!She couldn’t bear to go to prison aft
“This is all part of her ploy. Even if she’s really dead, it has nothing to do with you. She deserves it,” Conrad consoled Fia and muttered into her ears. Meanwhile, Tiger gave Peter, who had fainted, a kick before walking over to the window and looking down.“She’s still alive, sir. They set up a life net down below.”Fia was suddenly stunned.Conrad stroked her face. She was already sweating in that short moment.He kissed her face and gently said, “She’s fine. Even if something happened to her, it’s her own doing.”“I’ll go take a look,” Fia said dryly.Conrad then held her to the window side, and she looked down as she trembled.Esme was lying on the life net. The doctors and firemen surrounded her.“She’s not dead…” she mumbled. “Just who exactly is she?”Conrad then said, “Don’t think about this anymore, alright?”Even Tiger, who had been watching how things unfold, began to get worried. “Sir, should you take her to the psychologist?”Conrad nodded and took her to the
“What are we doing here?”Conrad introduced Marcus to her. “This is Mr. White, a psychologist.”There was displeasure in Fia’s eyes. “I’m not sick.”She tugged Conrad’s arm. “I’m not sick. I don’t need to see a psychologist. Let’s go home!”Marcus looked at her and said, “You’re quite seriously ill.”Conrad glared at him in annoyance.Fia didn’t look at Marcus. For some reason, the man was putting her under immense pressure. As if he could see through her secrets at any time.Marcus ignored her and said, “While your eyes look innocent and pure, they lack the vigor of a healthy person. It means that your heart is exhausted.”“I don’t know what you’re talking about! I’m completely fine!” Fia didn’t want to look at Marcus, and simply pulled Conrad, wanting to leave.Marcus was a proud man. His work in psychology made him an important and welcomed guest even to the royalty of another country!And the woman in front of him riled him up.“Come in.”With that, he turned around and
