Fia smiled and said frankly, “I’m not angry. I simply feel sorry for her. I’m not her There’s no need for her to say something like that to me with an ulterior motive.”
enemy.
Britney, who was enraged, felt like her anger had suddenly been extinguished. She didn’t even have the strength to argue with Fia anymore.
“If you actually have the time to blame me for anything, you should spend more time thinking of a way to kick Esme out of your family.”
With that, Fia laid back down and pulled the blanket. She didn’t want to say another word.
Barbara walked over to hold her sister’s hand and said, “Let’s go.”
Britney looked at Fia laying on the bed and suddenly said, “I hope that you don’t end up like me in the end.”
Fia shut her eyes and didn’t say a word. Once the sisters left, she carefully stroked her belly and consoled herself in silence.
Barbara walked out of the ward with Britney. When she saw Conrad standing at the end of the walkway, she walked over with her sister.
“Mr. Maxwell.”
Conrad turned around and nodded calmly. “You’re done.”
“Yes,” Barbara said with some hesitation. When she saw that Conrad was leaving, she quickly asked, “How’s everything at the Foreign Affairs Department?”
Conrad looked at her for a second and said, “After you left, everyone’s been quite busy. But they’ve got the hang of it now.”
Barbara bit her lips. “That’s great.”
Conrad then asked, “What are your plans from now on?”
“I haven’t thought about working for anyone yet,” Barabara said as she held her sister’s hand tightly.
As she had worked a long time for the company, he said, “If you want to return to Maxwell Corporation, my door is always open for you.”
When Barbara heard that, hope began to rise in her heart again.
“Mr. Maxwell, I have some private matters that I need your help with.”
Britney didn’t believe Conrad, so she pulled Barbara’s hand.
“I want to go to the washroom. We’ll visit Mrs. Maxwell again next time.”
“Sure.” Barbara could tell what she was trying to say and gave up.
Conrad looked at the two of them before making a call. “Investigate the woman that Barbara brought back with her after she returned from her vacation. Find out who she is.”
Once he was back in the ward, Conrad saw Fia had closed her eyes as she lay there. He carefully walked to the balcony for some fresh air.
Fia opened her eyes and looked at him, remembering what Britney said.
She eliminated that possibility from happening in her mind.
While Conrad was a cold person, he was not someone like Peter.
They couldn’t be compared with each other.
Several minutes later, Conrad picked up his phone.
It was Tiger. “Madam Barbara booked the entire plane, and the woman with her never exposed who she was.”
Conrad said, “Get someone to find out who that woman is.
Fia raised her eyebrow when she heard Conrad’s words.
Once he came back from the balcony, she opened her eyes and asked, “Who are you investigating?”
Conrad didn’t want to lie, but he didn’t want her to think too much about it.
Fia asked, “The girl with Barbara just now?”
Conrad nodded. “Yeah,”
Fia remembered the scars Britney had on her neck. Judging from that, her face might have plenty of scars too. Fia’s pity toward her grew even more.
“She’s just a pitiful girl. She’s in hiding so she can escape from her abusive man. There’s no need to investigate her.” This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Conrad frowned as he looked at her. “Fia, there’s no need to be pitiful toward those that you know nothing about. You’re just giving them a chance to hurt you!”
“There’s no need to investigate her.” Fia’s voice turned colder. “You might as well spend more time investigating that fake Britney.”
“I never gave up investigating her. Once I have the evidence, I’ll ask the police to arrest her as soon as possible,” Conrad said sternly.
Fia simply smiled. “Really, now? Between Esme and Peter, it’s obvious that you’re putting more effort into Peter.”
The light in Conrad’s eyes diminished a little. “Why don’t you trust me?”
“Then why do you have Peter’s information? She gave them to you, didn’t she?”
