    Britney, unable to hold back her excitement, raised her head to look at Conrad before shyly lowered her


    head to look away.


    “My sister is a very hardworking and capable woman. I can’t let her down.”


    “As expected from Barbara’s sister.” Conrad responded coldly before picking up his documents and


    leaving.


    There was no praise. There was no sign of anger either.


    Britney was dumbfounded as she stood there, not understanding what Conrad meant.


    Suddenly, Conrad stepped back into the meeting room and red at the woman.


    “Miss Thomas.”


    Britney’s eyes beamed as she responded, “Yes, sir?”


    Conrad smirked at her coldly. His good looks would probably make one mistake him for being in a good


    mood at the moment.


    “Tomorrow night, there’s a business party. Would you care to join?”


    Britney replied eagerly, “Yes, of course!”


    “8 PM. I’ll head to the Thomas residence to get you.”


    “Understood, sir. I’ll definitely not let you down!”


    Conrad walked away as his face turned grim. He wanted to see just what trick Britney was ying.


    Didn’t she say she had feelings for Peter Hall for years?


    Then, why did shee to work at Maxwell Corporation?


    When he arrived at his office, he saw Fia was still working on her designs. Not wanting to disturb her,


    Conrad went and sat at his desk.


    When it was almost noon, Fia stood up to stretch her body. Then, she looked at Conrad happily.


    Although she wanted to share with him what she had been working on, Fia did not open her mouth,


    fearing that she would disturb his work.

    “Yes?” Conrad raised his head and looked at Fia.


    He already noticed when she stood up.


    Fia beamed up a smile. “I want to show you my designs.”


    Conrad put down his pen and waved at her, signaling her to bring them to him.


    Fia brought her designs over, yet she stood in front of his desk.


    Conrad looked at his beautiful wife and pointed at his side. “Come here.”


    Fia did not doubt him one bit as she stepped toward his seat,


    “Ah!”


    In a blink of an eye, Conrad grabbed her and pulled her into his embrace, circling his arms around her


    as though he feared she would run away.


    “Wha… What are you doing?”


    He smiled softly as he took the designs off her hands and put his chin on her head.


    “Why, looking at your designs, of course.”


    If that was the case, there was no need for him to pull her over and put her on hisp. How uncouth!


    However, Conrad did not seem to be showing any naughty intention. He kept hugging her as he looked


    at the designs. asionally, he would tell her his thoughts on a few improvements on a few designs.


    Fia slowly calmed down and put her focus on the designs.


    His suggestions were quite rational. This would surely help improve her skills and designs.


    “Conrad Maxwell!” After listening to him for a while, Fia turned her head around and looked at him..


    He was so close to her; this made her blush like a rose. Her heart was beating so fast and loud that it


    was rather easy for him to hear it.


    Conrad gazed at her with his deep, starry eyes, “Can I kiss you, Fia?”


    She felt as though her heart was going to explode. Feeling intense embarrassment, Fia pushed him


    away and fled.


    Conrad, of course, saw through her miles ahead. He let her stand up but immediately pulled her


    back to him.


    This time, his eyes were burning with passion. He locked his hands behind her head as he pulled her


    toward him.


    It all happened so quickly. And the kiss was deep, powerful, and long, as though he was going to


    devour her whole.
