“What’s going on?” His tone was as cold as the Arctic winds.
“The driver’s dead!”
“Which driver?”
“The truck driver that ran into the madam.”
“What happened?”
Ss looked at Fia who sat up. “Should we speak outside, sir?”
“I can’t hear about it?” Fia asked in an upset tone.
Conrad patted her head and said to Ss, “Just say it.”
“A few minutes ago, he suddenly jumped out of the window. He was pronounced dead on the spot.”
Conrad frowned and said, “Why did no one from the hospital tell us?”
“Doctor Hall, Doctor Evans, the hospital director, the police, and the forensic team had all gone to
investigate this!” Ss’s expression darkened. “I believe that this is a scheme…. I just don’t know what
the person behind this wants.
Fia then said, “Aren’t the driver’s legs hurt? How did he get up the window?”
“He used a chair to climb up the window. It is quite difficult. I wonder what made him so determined.”
Conrad suddenly remembered the driver’s ill son. “How’s his son doing?”
“His son is in the ICU, so he probably doesn’t know. His wife found out about it and fainted from the
news. “Sir, the reason I came here is because I think it’s best for you to leave. I feel like the target is
you.”
Ss had just finished when a string of footsteps came from behind him. It was Assistant Director
Manning and his men.
“Mr. Maxwell, the driver that injured your wife hadmitted suicide.”
Fia immediately argued, “What does that have to do with my husband?!”
Conrad’s heart warmed and he patted her back.
“Don’t worry. I’m still here.”
Fia looked at him with mixed feelings. The plotting against him had already been set in motion and yet
he still told her not to worry.
It was such a strange feeling. Despite their long marriage, it was the first time that he treated her like
this.
“He left a suicide note saying that you threatened and hit him every day, so hemitted suicide. He
also said that Mr. Maxwell was doing it because he wanted to avenge you,” Assistant Director Manning
said in a serious tone as he stared at Fia.
“Impossible! He made it up!” Fia argued with confidence. “He’s been taking care of me 24/7, so he had
no time to see that driver at all! It’s impossible for him to threaten or beat him because he didn’t have
the time!”
Conrad smiled and patted Fia’s head and joked, “How can you be so sure that I’m innocent? You don’t
know what I’m doing when you’re asleep.”
“Stop joking around! Can’t you see what the situation is right now?” Fia said with red eyes. She couldn’t
simply stand by and do nothing when the police were working against him.
“Come back to the station with us. We’ll know if you’re involved in this after the investigation,” Assistant
Director Manning said as he took a step forward. “You can understand how hard this is for me as a
lawful citizen, right? Mr. Maxwell?”
“Of course. Of course, I do.” Conrad looked at Fia gently without even giving Assistant Director
Manning so much as a nce.
He knew that there would be troubleing his way when he wanted to spread the Maxwell
Corporation’s influence to the capital city.
He didn’t expect it toe so quickly though.
“Ss, I’m leaving for a bit. You stay here and apany the madam 24/7.” Conrad turned around and
was about to leave.

Fia grabbed his arm and looked at him tearfully.
“The police station is not a good ce to be. Have your corporation’swyers do something to get you
out.”
“Don’t be afraid, Fia.”
“You know about the station’s interrogation room. It’s so dark and the air is so bad too.”
Fia almost cried.
Conrad could feel his chest tighten. So, she had been afraid when she was inside. But every visited
her, she looked like she didn’t care.

“Then I should really go in and take a look. This is the gods‘ will… So that I can feel my wife’s suffering
as well.”
