“I understand.” Fia smiled sweetly. She closed her eyes despite the pain, waiting for sweet slumber to embrace her.She had woken up because of the pain from her wound. She wondered if she would wake up again later tonight because of it.However, she didn’t tell Conrad about it because she didn’t want him to worry about her when he was already upset.The next day.The sky had just slightly brightened when Conrad left. Before he left, he ordered Sophia to keep a close eye on Fia and to call him if anything happened.Sophia sat outside the door, leaving a small gap. She would peek in from time to time dutifully.After half an hour, the hospital director came.“Has Mr. Maxwell left, miss?”Sophia glared at the director warily. “What’s this about?”The director smiled and said, “I’m worried about Mrs. Maxwell’s injury, so I want to go in and take a look.”Sophia snapped at him, “No. You’re not Madam’s attending doctor!”The director said, “But I’m this hospital’s director!”Sop
“Jason Evans…” Fia muttered the name. “When I heard that he was wounded, I felt somewhat uneasy. I think… I know him.”Sophia said nothing. She was someone that was loyal and protective of her boss.While the person she wanted to protect the most was Fia, she only acknowledged one pairing, which was her boss and her madam.“Sophia, do you think I should see him?” Fia looked at Sophia.Sophia gave it a thought and cunningly said, “Out of protecting the relationship between you and the boss, I don’t recommend you see him.”“What?” Fia asked intentionally. “You think that there’s something between me and Mr. Evans?”“That’s not it!” Sophia shook her hand. “You’re a very principled woman and are only romantically involved with the boss. There’s nothing unspeakable between you and any other men!”“Then what are you worried about?” Fia smiled slyly.It took her a while, but Sophia finally realized that she jumped into a hole that her madam had prepared for her.“I want to see him,”
Fia sensed that something was wrong with his emotions, and she couldn’t help but become nervous.“I’m sorry, Mr. Evans! I… I forgot some things. If what I said is offensive to you, please don’t take it too seriously! Just treat it as some mindless rambling of a madwoman!”“It’s okay,” Jason said as he tightened his grip. “I’ll explain everything to Director Parker and do my best to clear Conrad’s name.”“Thank you! Then, is there anything I can do for you?” Fia asked excitedly.Jason looked at her. He wanted her to hug him, even if just once.But he didn’t need to even consider it because she would refuse him.There was no need for him to ask for the impossible.“You’ve already done enough by not pursuing a case against my mom for hurting you, Fia. If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to my room now.”Fia was stunned for a moment before saying, “Alright, I’ll have Sophia send you back.”“It’s alright. She needs to take care of you. I’ll have the doctor and nurse send me back.”
After Conrad was done washing the utensils, he extended his hand to Fia. “Give me your phone.”Fia looked at him speechlessly.Conrad said, “Fia.”“Can you please not?” Fia said with a frown. “I’m quite bored, so just let me have a look.”“You have babies in your womb. There’s too much radiation from the phone and it’ll affect the babies,” Conrad said with a cold expression.Fia blinked. “I can always wear a hazmat suit! I won’t use it for long… Just half an hour?”Conrad still had his hand extended. “Give me your phone. I’ll change the settings for you.”Fia asked, “You want to delete the contacts on my phone?”Conrad said, “No, I’m just giving a second look at who you have no need to contact.”Fia frowned. “I’ve forgotten people and events, and I’ve never seen a lot of those people on my contacts. Since I am in a better mood, I want to see who their friends are.”Conrad raised an eyebrow. “You want to know more about Jason?”Fia’s expression became alert. Originally, she w
At the very least, the madam could still believe that the boss didn’t hire someone to hurt Mr. Evans.But she felt that if Fia recovered her memories, she probably wouldn’t believe Conrad anymore.She then suggested out of boldness and said, “Maybe we can continue the hypnotism after the madam is out of the hospital?”“I want to remember right now! I can’t wait anymore!” Fia’s emotions became very erratic. The feeling that everything was unclear was making her go berserk!“Sophia, please ask Mr. White to come over!” Conrad felt that rather than hiding everything from her, he should let her recover all her memories.He had no need to hide anything as she herself knew the answer to all the questions!After a few minutes, Sophia pushed a confused Marcus in. “What is it now? I had just finished my lunch and was having a rest so that I could digest my food, but this girl dragged me in.”Fia said, “Doctor Marcus, please help me. I want to remember everything now.”“Now?” Marcus then
Sophia wanted to speak a few times, but she didn’t dare to because of how serious everything became. She simply wished for it to end soon.Marcus knelt in front of Fia and held her left hand. He put his fingers on the veins at her wrist.“You’ve been hurt so many times. If you’re given a chance, will you still fall in love with Conrad?”Fia’s eyes shut tight, but the movements underneath her eyelids showed that her eyes beneath were moving rapidly. As if she was trying to resist… Or break free.Marcus held her wrist tighter. “Everything is destined. Love and hatred are both trials that God gives you. Before you go through the trial, God will also give you the power to live through it. Stop running, and all your problems will be solved one day. The children in your womb are the energy that God gave you. It represents your rebirth. It will be your armor that makes you invulnerable!”“I… will…” Fia murmured, sweat rolling down her forehead as she answered Marcus’ final question.She
“I think the hypnotism session took too much of her strength. That’s what’s keeping her asleep longer,” Sophia said as she looked at her boss. When she remembered all the questions that Marcus asked and all the pain that Fia had suffered, the way she looked at him became slightly colder.Conrad closed the door and stared at Sophia. “You were with them the entire session. Did you notice if Marcus did anything wrong?”Sophia shook her head. “Doctor Marcus is a very responsible doctor. He understands the madam as well.”“What did he say?”“All questions related to her recovery,” Sophia said to her boss in a calm manner.The madam didn’t want the boss to know about her love for him, so she would help her hide it from him together with Marcus.Conrad knew about his followers well. While it hadn’t been long since Sophia had worked for him, she had been at the training camp for a long time. He knew that once she made a decision, it would be hard to change her.“Sophia, I’m not asking a
Fia’s eyes were slightly numb. “Where am I?”“In the hospital. You were injured and…” Sophia stopped. “Do you still remember what happened?”Fia began to frown. All those forgotten memories… Everything that had happened after her amnesia returned to her mind.Sophia stared at her. She had imagined all the words that she could say after she woke up, but she never imagined she would say something like that.“He had no reason to try to kill Evans!” Fia said calmly.When Sophia heard it, she couldn’t hold back her tears anymore and they began to roll down her cheeks.“You don’t suspect the boss even a bit, Madam? Now that you’ve remembered everything, you still won’t suspect him?”Fia’s lips curled up and she said somewhat self-pitifully, “It doesn’t matter whether I’ve forgotten about it or not. I’ll never suspect him of doing it. Not to mention that I didn’t see it with my own eyes. I don’t believe that he did it.”“But even the boss’s own father believes that he did it,” Sophia
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
