Conrad thought again of the delusion that the picture had given him and covered her mouth with his
lips, not wanting to hear her mention. someone else.
A kiss that started off gently gradually became more intense and heated, easily making one dizzy.
When Britney arrived home, she greeted the s*rvants politely before flying upstairs.
Once in the bedroom, she closed the doors and windows, pulled down even the curtains, and made an
international call.
“I’m so annoyed!”
The first thing out of her mouth was aint.
The person on the other end was in Maplnd and asked in azy tone, “What? Was the blind date not
good enough for you?”
“Your sister brought that b*tch with her!”
“Esme.” The man’s voice turned cold and hard. “That’s my sister you’re talking about. Watch your
tone.”
Britney took a deep breath to calm herself. “Didn’t you say that I’m Britney, now and forever? And that I
will only ever be Britney? What’s the meaning of you calling my name?”
“I’ll assume that you were emotional because you saw an old friend and couldn’t control your temper. If
you speak about my sister in that tone again, don’t me me for turning against you!”
Realizing how protective Peter was of his sister, she gritted her teeth and softened her tone, “How
could I be unhappy with your sister? I
like her a lot. I was just angry when I saw Fia.”
Peter didn’t want to bother about this topic any longer and asked coldly, “Have you seen Conrad?”
“No. Why would I? My heart is with you now.”
“It better be. I’m hanging up now. I’ll return in a few days to see you. While I’m not by your side, stay in
character and don’t expose yourself!

Esme slumped down onto the carpet by the bed.
She was so jealous of Fia!
Even if the woman was blind, Fia’s voice was filled with joy and delight when Conrad was mentioned.
Esme’s death had not affected their rtionship in the slightest, but in fact had made it better!
Peter was returning soon. She had to do something before he did, or else she wouldn’t be able to
control the anger coursing through her.
In the evening, Barbara drove home and greeted her parents indifferently under their cold gazes.
Mr. Thomas couldn’t help but say sarcastically, “I thought you weren’ting home anymore? What’s
the meaning of this?”
Barbara didn’t pause in her steps and said as she continued upstairs,” Don’t worry. I don’t intend to
pollute the Thomases’ air. I’m just dropping by to see Britney, and then I’ll be leaving.”
“Hmph!”
Mr. Thomas was very dissatisfied with his daughter. Despite her sessful career, she was still only
working for others!
She didn’t listen to their words and didn’t follow the traditional path of getting married and having
children in ordance with the
arrangement of her elders. Instead, she insisted on being someone’s stepmother and even got
divorced afterward!
She was an utter disgrace to the Thomas family!
After knocking on the door, Britney opened it, and her face lit up at the sight of Barbara.
“Barbara! You’re back!”
Barbara studied Britney from head to toe a few times before saying, ” Long time no see. Seems like
you’ve grown some.”
Britney raised her chin, feeling a little proud.
“Yeah! I’m no longer the little dwarf you used to call me back when we were kids!”
After Britney made that childhood joke, Barbara felt even more like her sister had returned, and there
was no unfamiliar feeling between
them.
Barbara reached out to grab Britney’s hand and said, “Come on. I’ll take you out for supper and buy
you some clothes.”
“Barbara, I have my own money. You don’t have to buy anything for me.”
Barbara patted Britney’s head and said, “Don’t refuse your sister’s love,
“Okay then!” Britney said and took Barbara’s arm with a delighted look.
As Barbara drove them away from the residence, she asked, “What are your ns now that you’re
back?”
“I’ll take it one step at a time and see what I can do.”
“Have you been doing biological research abroad?”
“Yeah.”
A hint of reluctance crossed Barbara’s eyes as she asked, “Was Peter
worth it?”
