    Chapter 264


    “Know your ce!”


    Prisci could feel her chest thumping and she instantly dragged Fia by the hair, wanting to drag her


    down from the bed!


    Suddenly, there was a loud bang from behind her. “What are you doing?!”


    A raging me burst forth toward Prisci and she let go in fear, but she was already kicked away by


    the man and was mmed into the wall.‘


    “How dare youmit police brutality to my wife!” Conrad tightened his fists, wishing that he could


    shred Prisci into pieces.


    If he didn’t suddenlye back after leaving, he would never have seen this.


    Since Fia was still angry at him, she would never tell him.


    Prisci massaged the spot where she was kicked in her chest, and the anger on her face disappeared


    when she saw who it was.


    “Con… Conrad?!”


    Conrad didn’t even give her a look and simply looked at Fia.


    “How are you feeling? Are you hurt somewhere?”


    Fia was really feeling sleepy. She only wanted to go to sleep. But after Prisci pulled her hair, she was


    in so much pain that she no longer felt sleepy.


    She sat up and had her back against the wall and looked at Conrad c*olly.


    “Didn’t you leave?”


    “Why are you here again? What kind of evidence do you want from me again?”


    Conrad gulped. “Can’t we speak properly for once?”


    “That’s Esme’s cousin.” Fia gave Prisci a nce. “I wonder if you still remember.”


    “I don’t!” Conrad stared at Prisci coldly. He really didn’t have any memory of her.


    Prisci felt embarrassed. She even liked him when she was younger… But he didn’t even know who


    she


    was.


    “It’s okay if you don’t know her, as long as she knows you,” Fia said mockingly. “You saw how she was


    treating me as a member of the Manning household. Do you still think that Esme’s pure and innocent?”


    Conrad knew what she meant. She was telling him the reason that the officer treated her like this was


    because she was ordered to by Esme.


    “Don’t believe me?” Fia sneered. “True. You’ll only believe Esme.”


    “Fia, stay here for a few more days. Once I’vepleted the investigation, I’ll take you home.”


    Conrad felt like this was not the time to discuss what kind of a person Esme was. He only wanted to be


    done with this and take her horne.


    “Fine. I shouldn’t have discussed this with you.” Fiay back down on the bed. “I want to go back to


    bed. Leave.”


    Prisci carefully said, “Let’s go then, Conrad.”

    She didn’t even dare to be angry at him after getting kicked. He was just too powerful. She couldn’t go


    against him.


    Conrad red at Prisci coldly when a middle–aged man greeted them after they went outside.


    “I told you, right? Mr. Maxwell? Your wife will be alright! I already told Prisci to take good care of her!”


    “Take good care of her?” Conrad looked at him coldly. “You’re a good boss, Assistant Director


    Manning.. Unfortunately, you’re quite blind!”


    “What?” He looked at his daughter Prisci standing by the door.


    “Prisci, what did you do to make him so unhappy?”


    “Dad, I…” Prisci was very regretful. She thought that Conrad would nevere to a ce like this.


    And since that hospital assistant director had already left, she thought no one would see whatever she


    did to


    Fia.


    “Speak up!”


    “I… When I was interviewing Ms. Manning, she and I got into some conflict, and then…”


    “And then what?!” Assistant Director Manning’s heart was already trembling. He had spent a lot of


    effort to get her into the station. If Conrad found something that could be used against them, both of


    them would be in trouble.


    “… …”


    “Enough.” Conrad didn’t want to listen to Prisci anymore. It made him feel disgusted.
