    Chapter 846


    “Fia, I’m just worried about you. Your uncle came and told me what happened in Gryphon.”


    “He told you I pushed Britney off a bridge, didn’t he?” Fia then asked sarcastically, “What else did he


    say? That I’m mentally ill? That I’ve be so suspicious of others that everyone seems like a bad


    person to me?”


    Conrad’s face turned cold when he noticed Fia’s emotions start to be unstable. He even wanted


    to snatch the phone from Fia’s hand so she would not be adversely affected by negative feelings.


    However, he felt relieved when he saw her smirking at the phone, seemingly not feeling hurt at all.


    you that


    way, Fia.


    “No. Your uncle didn’t say that.” Conall frowned and said, “I didn’t think of you I believe


    you. Whatever you did, you must have done it with a reason.”


    “Don’t worry. Even if you all think of me like that, I would not mind at all. Besides, Mr. Finn Parker and


    Madam Barbara were once a couple. So it’s only normal for him to defend his dear sister-inw,” Fia


    replied in a mocking tone, showing that she did not care about how they viewed her.


    “Fia…”


    When Conall wanted to say more to persuade her, Fia interjected, “It’s gettingte. I need to rest now.”


    Then she hung up the phone and smiled joyously at Conrad. “I’m done with my phone call. Satisfied?


    So can you take your bath now?”


    Conrad patted her on the head and said, “Roger that, Mrs. Maxwell.”


    “Go!” Fia shoved his hand away before pulling the nket over her. “I’m tired. I’ll hit the sack. first.”


    “Okay.” Conrad tucked her in before walking to the bathroom. When she heard the bathroom door


    close, Fia’s face turned sullen and she was dismayed.


    She could not stop thinking about the possibility that Britney and Esme were the same person. On top


    of that, Britney had connections and people who cared for her, making it difficult to probe for the truth.


    The next morning, Conrad went straight to thepany after breakfast. Fia came up with an excuse so


    she would be allowed to rest at home.


    Before leaving the house, Conrad ordered Sophia to apany Fia at home and to never bring her


    out. Even if Fia insisted on going outdoors, Sophia was to tell him about it too.


    Seeing him out the door, Fia said with a gentle smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. I’ll be a good girl and stay


    at home until youe back.”


    Conrad nodded. “Good.”


    Seeing his wife waving him goodbye, Conrad recalled the early days of their marriage. If so many


    untoward things had not happened back then, perhaps their marriage would be as peaceful and


    harmonious as this.


    After Conrad’s car was out of sight, Fia’s smile faded.


    Seeing this, Sophia asked, “What’s wrong?”


    “Oh, nothing.” Fia shrugged and said, “I want to visit the hospital. Wannae with me?” rmed,


    Sophia asked Fia timidly, “What… What are you going to the hospital for?”


    “To pay Britney a visit.” Fia told Sophia frankly, “I want to see for myself if she’s Esme or not.”


    “Fia…” Sophia held Fia’s hand worriedly. “Let’s leave this matter to Sir, okay? We can’t allow something


    like yesterday to happen again. I have never be a mother so I did not realize the risk. Even Ss


    and Tiger scolded mest night. I’m still scared and anxious when I think about what happened


    yesterday. If anything were to happen to you and your baby, there’s nothing I can do to right my


    mistake.”


    Fia instinctively looked at her tummy before relenting. “Fine, I won’t go to the hospital.” Fearing that Fia


    would be upset, Sophia suggested a different way. “How about this, Fia? I’ll go to the hospital in your


    stead. You stay at home while Mrs. Whitley and Mrs. Taylor look after you.”


    Although Sophia was a capable fighter, she was still a girl. Fia was worried that if she allowed her to go


    there alone she would face mortal peril.

    It was then that they saw Tiger walk through the vi’s gate. Sophia was overjoyed to see him. “Great


    timing, Tiger! I need to head out for a bit. Can you please look after Fia for a while?” “Where are you


    going?” Tiger coldly nced at Sophia’s leg before saying, “Do you want to receive more punishment?”


    “I’m here to retrieve some documents for our boss. I’ll be leaving shortly.”


    Then, Tiger gave it some thought before asking the girls, “So what is it? Perhaps I could help if I’ve got


    the time.”
