    Ss nodded and said, “Alright. You’re hired. Report to work tomorrow at eight.”


    “Thank you!” Annie said as she bowed deeply, excitement shining brightly on her face, which made her


    look more favorable in this situation.


    She was young, beautiful, polite, and capable. Maxwell Corporation needed such people!


    Annie walked out of thepany with delight in her heart and was filled with hope for the future!


    A dark gray Maybach pulled up in front of Maxwell Corporation, and Conrad exited the car before going


    around it to the passenger side to help Fia out.


    The security guard hurried over and said, “Mr. Maxwell, let me help you park the car.”


    “Alright.”


    Not a momentter, a figure came running toward them.


    “Mr. Maxwell, do you remember me?” the girl asked as she smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling joyfully.


    Conrad spared her a nce, and his grip on Fia’s wrist tightened.


    Fia was at a loss and could only use her imagination to guess what the girl before them looked like.


    She also wondered what kind of rtionship the girl had with Conrad.


    “What do you want?” Conrad asked, his voice and expression smooth and indifferent. He was


    obviously not happy about the girl rushing up to them.


    “I… I’m Annie Parker, the girl you almost hit with your car, remember?”


    Annie was a little disappointed, and her gaze shifted to Fia, who Conrad was holding onto. She noted


    Fia’s dull eyes and wondered who she was, and also thought that there seemed to be something


    wrong. with her eyes.


    Conrad maintained his indifference, though his eyes turned cold.


    “If you’re seekingpensation, you can contact my assistant, Ss, directly.”


    “N-no! That’s not what I want! I just wanted to share some happy news with you. I was sessful in my


    job application, and I’ll be joining Maxwell Corporation! I look forward to working with you in the future!


    After saying that, Annie eagerly looked at Conrad as she blushed and held out a hand for a shake. Her


    eyes were fixed on Conrad’s face, hoping to see some appreciation. The best would be to get a


    compliment from him, of course…


    But there was nothing.


    Instead, he turned to the woman beside him and asked, “What do you want to eat? I’ll get Ss to get


    it.”


    Fia shook her head, feeling flustered. She wished she could see what the girl who stopped them looked


    like.


    “Conrad, who is she?” Fia asked, trying to keep her tone rxed and seemingly casual.


    “No one important,” Conrad replied without hesitation.


    Then, he swept Fia into his arms and walked toward the office.


    Annie felt like someone had poured a bucket of ice cold water over her as chill washed over her She


    stood there dumbfounded and turned to watch Conrad walk away with  in his arms.


    There was envy and jealousy in her eyes.


    That woman was pretty and looked about the same age as her but was blind. Why was Conrad treating


    her so well?!


    Annie was willing to die if it meant that Conrad would treat her that well!


    Thinking back to her strict upbringing, her heart warned her not to get in over her head. No matter how


    wonderful a man was, she couldn’t lower herself to be a homewrecker and try to seduce a taken man.


    But when she thought about how outstanding Conrad was, she really didn’t want to listen to her


    conscience.


    Shaking her head, Annie decided not to think about it for now. She should focus on working since she


    had got the job.


    Perhaps that blind woman was simply Conrad’s momentarily desire for novelty, and they would break


    up.ter.


    “Good day, Mr. Maxwell.”


    “Hello, Mr. Maxwell.”


    As they walked into the office, every employee that Conrad walked past greeted him and gave cautious


    and curious looks at the woman he was holding in his arms.

    Conrad didn’t falter nor waste time ncing around and simply nodded back at the greetings as he


    held Fia tightly in his arms.


    Once they reached the inside of the director’s exclusive elevator, Conrad set her down and ced a


    hand gently on her face to turn her toward him,


    “A penny for your thoughts?”


    Fia smiled. “Nothing.”


    “I don’t know who that girl was just now,” Conrad exined anyway.


    Esme was dead, and he didn’t want anyone else popping up to cause trouble for them.
