“Of course. We had a good relationship in the past, but…” Before Esme could even finish, Conrad rolled up the window and started the car, leaving her in the dust.He didn’t want Esme to say anything to provoke Fia.“Why didn’t you let her finish?” Fia said, confused. “She said she knew me, but I don’t remember anything at all.”She frowned again and muttered, “But when I looked at her, I felt somewhat uncomfortable.”“How can someone as fake as her make anyone comfortable?” Marcus consoled her. “I didn’t like how she did things. That’s why I shamed her.”“Really?” Fia said visibly confused, and then remembered how everyone said that she had amnesia.If that was true… What was the reason that caused her to lose a portion of her memories?Did her mom and grandma really pass away? Did she become like this because they passed away?“Mrs. Maxwell.” Marcus turned to the back and said to Fia earnestly, “You can doubt anyone, but never doubt those who are willing to sacrifice their liv
Fia almost cried. “Recovering my lost memories isn’t important… I have to protect the two children inside my womb.”Conrad nodded. “I’ll protect them with you.”Fia felt so troubled that she couldn’t help burying herself in his arms. “About my mom and grandma… Did they… really…”She couldn’t remember any of it, but even the very thought of it hurt.However, when she remembered how the doctor said that she had to maintain a positive mood, she quickly took a deep breath to adjust her emotions.Conrad held her tightly and said, “If you think you can handle it, I’ll take you to the cemetery to visit Grandmother Thea.”Marcus saw how Fia reacted. He felt that Conrad was a bit cruel and he should have avoided that topic. Wasn’t he worried that her emotions might become worse?“Sure. I want to take a look,” Fia said as she sobbed and wiped her tears away.…They reached the cemetery. Marcus sat in the car, unwilling to get out of the vehicle. He was uninterested in graves and tombsto
“It’s all fake!” Conrad said in a furious tone. He had never felt so disgusted by this woman before. “Do you still remember what you looked like before this?! After you took on another woman’s face, your heart got more and more rotten! Your entire being is hideous!”Esme collapsed to the ground. What could be worse than listening to her first love say something as vicious as that?What could she still depend on?She shouldn’t have been so obsessed with her love. She should have focused on her revenge the moment she escaped overseas in the first place! He wasn’t on alert back then… She could have easily dealt with them at the time!Fia turned and looked at the two of them. The fog in front of her became even heavier, making her fearful.“What is she… talking about?”Conrad held her and covered her ears and lowered his head to kiss her ear lobe, wanting to console her.Fia looked at “Miss Thomas” who had collapsed on the ground. Suddenly, Esme’s face appeared in her mind.“Who is
Fia was already sobbing quite terribly, but she was still surprised to hear what he said.She didn’t know why he would suddenly treat her so well.What did she forget? What had they experienced?After they left the cemetery, Marcus told them about his life overseas while Conrad was driving.While Fia was listening, she would sometimes ask him about the sceneries and languages used overseas.She had never left the country, so she was enjoying Marcus telling her all about it. She couldn’t help but be curious.“Mrs. Maxwell, you can take overseas trips to expand your horizons, but there’s no place like home!” Marcus said. He didn’t want anyone close to him to grow attached to some overseas countries.He loved his country, and he wished that the people close to him would think that way too.Conrad gave Marcus a look and nodded. “He’s right.”“Which part of what I said is right?” Marcus feeling a bit happy.“That there’s no place like home,” Conrad said.“Haha! Heroes like us hav
“Where are we going?” Fia nudged Conrad’s arm from the back and asked in a whisper. She was worried that she would wake Marcus up.Conrad said, “Where do you want to go?”“My mom. I want to see my mom,” Fia said as her tears flowed again. However, she quickly wiped them away. “No, let’s get the hypnotism done first so that I can get my memories back.”She really couldn’t handle the fact that she didn’t know anything.Conrad bit his lips. “We’ve known each other for so long… You do trust me somewhat, right?” He slowed down his car, hoping to be able to communicate with her properly.Fia was quiet for a few seconds before saying yes.Conrad then said, “Can we delay it for a few days? There’s something that I need to do.”“Is there something more important than getting my memories back?” Fia felt somewhat bitter in her heart.“No. It’s something between us,” Conrad quickly explained.“What is it?” Fia was somehow terrified. “Are we divorcing?”Conrad didn’t know what to say righ
“Mrs. Taylor, my mind is so empty and my heart feels a baffling sorrow.”“Sigh, all these will pass. Madam, think more about Master Maxwell, and the children in your tummy.” As Mrs. Taylor spoke, she pulled Fia away from the window.Fia sighed. “I just wanted to enjoy the breeze. That’s all. I didn’t plan on doing anything.”“Yes, yes, yes, I was rash and scared you.” Mrs. Taylor was even thinking of crying just now. She was really scared to death.If anything happened, what would happen to Master Maxwell!If Fia fell from the window, even if she said it had a connection with Echo and Thea’s deaths, she would be incomparably guilty.Good thing Conrad came back in time and caught Fia. If anything happened to Fia or the children in her tummy, she could not compensate them even with her own life.“Madam, I’m sorry.” Mrs. Taylor apologized long-windedly with tears.Fia looked at her and smiled, raising her hand and wiping away her tears.“Mrs. Taylor, it has nothing to do with you
Sophia was stunned. “I don’t know about this. Why don’t you ask Sir about it?”“I don’t want to ask him.” Fia sat on the ground and said in a daze, “I want to meet my cousin.”Sophia felt a headache. How were they to meet? In name, Esme was dead and now she was living with a different face, but they had yet to find any evidence that Britney was Esme.“Today, when I went to Grandma’s grave, I met a girl. She said that my cousin is dead. I don’t have any memory of this.” Fia seemed to be talking to herself. “I don’t remember how my grandma and mom died. I’m just so sad, sad and lost. What exactly happened to me?”Sophia looked at her, unable to say a single comforting word.She thought of the mysterious character in the Hellish Training Camp, who could deal with poison and cure sickness, and heard that he could develop all kinds of strange medicines.She wondered if he had the ability to create a medicine that could help people forget about their worries.Fia appeared to be extra
His short hair had been cut and he had half-heart shaped bangs, looking much younger.Conrad walked over, offering her the blue roses.“Fia, they’re for you. I hope you will like them.”“Today… Is it some kind of a special day?” she asked carefully, fearful that it was a hallucination her messy mind came up with.Her heart beat increased as she happily accepted the bouquet of blue roses and hugged them in her arms.Snap!Confetti rained from the sky and enveloped her.Fia was still in shock and delight when the tall and handsome man before her knelt down on one knee.“Fia, I’m giving you everything I owe you first.”He dug out a box from his embrace and looked at her with deep affection as he said to her, “I owe you a proposal.”Fia looked at him speechlessly, her eyes widened, unable to react.He opened the box and in it laid a pink, diamond bracelet. Its crystals shone a charming light.“Fia, will you marry me?”The music got faster as if it was following the beat of a p
