    Chapter 650


    Fia looked at Tiger sympathetically before stepping forward and forcefully pinching Conrad’s


    arm.


    “Can’t you treat your employees better?!”


    “If I hadn’t treated them well, they would not be alive today.”


    “You can stop bullsh*tting me. All I’ve seen you do to Ss and Tiger was mere unreasonable bullying!!”


    These two had been serving him loyally all these years. She did not want to see him bullying them just


    because he was in a foul mood.


    “Fia?” Conrad frowned upon hearing that.


    ring at his saddened eyes, Fia ordered, “We’ll talk after we leave the hospital.”


    She did not want to waste time squabbling at the hospital like this.


    As they stepped out of the hospital’s exit, Ss went to the parking area to fetch their car. Suddenly, a


    Roll-Royce stopped in front of them. The car’s window was wound down and a warm and friendly face


    pushed out to greet them.


    “Good day, Mr. and Mrs Maxwell. Do you need a ride?”


    “No need!” Conrad immediately refused with a cold frown. It was Peter. This man… he was definitely


    not a good person.


    Fia stared at Peter’s warm and friendly face, and then she looked at his eyebrows. She felt that this


    man, even though he was smiling, emitted an eerie, malicious aura.


    Especially his eyebrows. She could almost feel the scent of eviling out from them.


    “I see. Then, if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be taking my leave.” Peter then drove away.


    Fia asked instinctively, “Is he here to see Britney?”


    “No idea. I am not interested to find out either.” Conrad was still putting up his poker face. He was still


    upset that Fia talked back at him to stand up for Ss and Tiger.


    Unsatisfied, Fia smacked his arm. “Can’t you talk properly?”


    “I…”


    “Mr. Maxwell, I would like to have a word with you!” Barbara suddenly showed up from the stairs,


    ascending from the parking area, and interrupted them.


    Conrad red at her coldly and ignored her. Fia, on the other hand, had some respect for Barbara


    because she was a strong, independent woman. So, she said to her softly, “If it’s about


    work, we could talk about it tomorrow in thepany. We are nning to head home now.”


    “Ss is still fetching your ride. And I won’t take much of your time.” Barbara insisted, “I am here to talk


    about Britney.


    “After she got hurt to protect Mr. Maxwell, she did not get a word offort from you. And now, she


    was dismissed from thepany! Just what wrong did she ever do to you?!”


    Conrad’s eyes turned as cold as ice as he replied, “My turf, my rules. If I want to fire anyone, you have


    no right to question me.”


    “She’s my sister! I know her very well! She is a kind and gentle girl! How could you…”


    “Director Thomas!” Conrad interrupted her coldly, “If you keep on with this, I’ll have to fire you too.”


    “…” Barbara widened her eyes,pletely stunned from what she heard.


    Fia hesitated for a moment before softly speaking to her, “Have you paid close attention to hertely?


    Don’t you notice if there’s any difference between her and your sister?”


    “She is my sister!” Barbara retorted furiously, “If Mr. Maxwell insists with his rash decision, then there’s


    no point for me and my sister to stay in thispany anymore!”


    To which, Conrad countered, “Good. Remember to hand in your resignation letter.”


    Barbara red at Conrad with her reddened, teary eyes, “I never knew that Mr. Conrad Maxwell is


    such a clueless man who could not differentiate between private and business matters. I was such a


    blind fool for joining yourpany!”


    Conrad frowned upon hearing this. He recalled all the hard work that Barbara had done for Maxwell


    Corporation. Back then, Parker Group was fighting tooth and nail to get her to join. them. However, she


    kept on refusing them, insisting on staying with Maxwell Corporation.


    “Barbara, no one is perfect. Besides, if we set aside that matter about your sister, I do recognize and


    am grateful that you’ve been serving ourpany loyally all these years. But this is no reason for you


    to emotionally ckmail me.”


    Barbara wanted to retaliate with a goodeback, but no word came from her mouth.

    All her life, the kind of people she hated the most were people who mixed personal and business


    matters. From the moment she tolerated nepotism-allowing her sister to be her assistant without


    going through the full official procedure and vetting process-she had already be the kind of person


    she hated most.
