Chapter 548


    Chapter 548


    Annie tried her best to suppress the uneasiness that was boiling in her heart. This man was so cold


    and cruel.


    When she thought about how gentle and warm he was when he looked after Fia, andpared that to


    how he treated her, Annie


    could not help but to feel an intense dread.


    As she tried to calm down, Annie said, “I am here to apologize on behalf of my uncle.”


    She put on a hurt look.


    “My uncle has been troubling Maxwell Corporation because Fia does not want toe home. It was


    unfair of him to do that to you. But, Mr. Maxwell! If you could convince Fia toe home, to call my


    uncle her dad, he would not cause any trouble any more.”


    Conrad looked at Annie as though he was looking at a clown. “So, you think I’m a man who would sell


    off his wife for profit?”


    “No, no!” Annie waved her hand nervously. “I just don’t want you to endure so many unnecessary


    problems that could be easily avoided.


    “If… If Fia knew, she would also not want to cause you this much


    trouble.”


    Conrad smirked. “Go back and tell that old geezer. Tell him if he wants to y, I’m all game. Just give it


    his all.”


    He was not one who would run away from a challenge!


    Fia had finally calmed down and recovered. If there was anything that


    was going to threaten her physical and m*ntal health, he would take them on and drive them all out of


    her life!


    “Mr. Maxwell…”


    Not giving Annié a chance to say more, Conrad walked into his personal elevator and rode back up to


    his office.


    Britney raised an eyebrow and walked toward Annie, who looked very hurt and disappointed.


    “Annie, don’t fret over it. You know, Fia’s a good girl. I’m sure she’ll understand if we tell her.”


    “Yeah! Let’s find her and talk to her!”


    Then, Annie lowered her shoulders, letting out a defeated sigh. “But the Maxwell residence is brimming


    with security right now. There is no way for us outsiders to get to her.”


    “Don’t you have her phone number?”


    “No.”


    “Well, I do.” Britney took out her phone. “Here, I’ll send it to you.”N?velDrama.Org content rights.
