Chapter 648


    Chapter 648


    A weekter, it was time for Conrad to be released from the hospital.


    Ss came to the hospital to handle the release papers first thing in the morning. Conall’s assistant


    came knocking on Conrad’s private ward’s door, saying that Conall wanted to see Fia again.


    Fia asked and acquired Conrad’s permission before heading Conall’s ward. Tiger stood outside of the


    ward’s door, coldly eyeing the other Parkers in the hallway.


    Felicity caught his hostility and retorted coldly, “What? Just because you’re her bodyguard you can just


    look down on us like that?”


    Tiger was stunned. He was not trying to look down on or belittle the Parkers. It was just that he was


    used to putting on this poker face. This made him look cold and unapproachable on the outside.


    Still, he did not bother to exin himself to Felicity. It would be too much trouble getting involved in


    these rich socialites’ affairs.


    Hence, he lowered his gaze but not his guard, quietly awaiting Fia’s return.


    Felicity, seeing this, felt even more agitated and upset. She was not usually a petty person, but this


    bodyguard had been a sore eye to her from the first time they met.


    She then walked toward him to confront him. “What is your name?”


    Tiger rolled his eyes and ignored her.


    “Hey, I’m talking to you! Are you deaf?”


    Still, no response.


    Meanwhile, in Conall’s private ward.


    Fia concisely asked about Conall’s health before telling him that she would not be able to visit him


    anymore since Conrad was getting discharged from the hospital.


    Conall had asked Fia to visit him all these while and now she was leaving. All a sudden, a surge of


    jealousy filled his mind.

    “That bratty boy has been in this hospital for days. Yet, he never visited me. How could he disrespect


    an elder like that?”


    Fia frowned and defended her husband. “Elder? Just what kind of elder are you to us? Why would he


    need to trouble himself to visit a stranger like you?”


    “Conall felt as though his heart had been smashed to pieces.


    “Mr. Parker, my husband has handled all your expenses in this hospital. He has done enough for you


    and he owes you nothing. And the reason I’m visiting you is because you saved my life. Nothing more,


    nothing less.”


    A glint of sadness glinted in Conall’s eyes. Fia was such a kind and gentle girl, but she was so


    harsh to her birth father.


    “Now, I’d like to take my leave. Do take care, Mr. Parker.” After finishing her words, Fia stood up,


    preparing to leave.


    “Fia!” Suddenly, the ward door opened from the outside. It was Annie Parker. She barged into the


    private ward, pretending that she was pleasantly surprised to see Fia there.


    Annie put down the gifts that she prepared for her uncle and held Fia’s hands like they were old mates.


    Fia, without hesitation, pushed her away.


    Annie, as though she was knocked by a car, was pushed to about two meters away.


    “Fia…”


    Tears rolled in Annie’s eyes as she looked at Fia pitifully.


    “You can quit acting now! How disgusting!” Fia red at Annie furiously, as though she was a


    hedgehog that had all her spines stood up.


    “Wha… What did I do wrong?!” Annie wailed like a baby as she looked at her Uncle Conall. ” Uncle


    Conall, I’m just trying to get close to Fia. We’re a family after all…”


    Conall’s head ached as he looked at her. He only had one brother and, so far, their children had been


    close.


    He had never said anything harsh toward Annie before.


    If it was anyone else, he would definitely scold them to set the records straight for Fia.


    Nheless, at this moment, Fia was more important to Conall than Felicity.


    “Uncle Conall?” Annie, seeing that her uncle did not defend her, called out to him pitifully.


    “Cough cough!” Conall coughed out loudly, as though he was still deeply troubled by his injury,


    pretending that he had no time for the girls’ squabble.


    Fia threw him a nce and said, “I’ll take my leave. Take care.”


    “Yes, yes. Thank you for visiting me. Cough cough!”


    After Fia left, Annie shakily stood up and looked at Conall.


    “Uncle Conall, is it true that Fia is more important to you than me and Felicity?”


    “Silence!” Conall’s face turned grim and scolded her, “How dare you younglings try to meddle with our-


    the adults’ affairs?!”
