Chapter 568
The caller was silent. Just as Conrad was about to hang up, a woman’s careful voice came from
the other end.
“Mr… Mr. Maxwell… Is Fia coming to the hospital?”
Conrad looked away. The voice was somewhat familiar, but it wasn’t familiar enough for him to know who the
person was immediately.
However, seeing that the person was asking about his wife, he asked, “Who are you?”
“I’m Britney.”
Conrad frowned. “What is it?”
“I understood why Fia didn’t like me from Sally now. I want to apologize to her. I won’t wear anything with the scent
of peach blossoms anymore.”
Conrad suddenly remembered Fia once told him that Esme liked to use hand moisturizers with the scent of peach
blossoms.
called Fia just now, but she didn’t pick it up.”

“Fia!”
He rushed into the bedroom but was stunned when she saw Fia wearing a pink suit and matching
pants.
“What is it?” Fia looked at him. He looked like he was worried that something would happen to her.
Conrad frowned. He was unsure why he would be affected by a call from Britney.
Fia was at home and in their bedroom. She was fine.
It was normal that she wouldn’t pick up Britney’s call. Other than Eileen and Sally, she had no other
friends.
“I’m fine. I missed you.”
“Oh.” Fia lowered her head and played on the phone. Before he asked, she said, “Britney gave me at call just now. I
didn’t answer.”
Fia paused for a moment.
“I don’t know why, but when I saw her yesterday, I felt sick.”
Conrad listened and didn’t interrupt her.
Fia then asked, confused, “You said that she looked quite nice. Why would I suddenly feel repulsive toward her?”
Conrad then instinctively said, “Peach blossoms fragrance?”
Fia raised her head and looked at him. “Do you think I’m ridiculous?”
“No, I feel sad for you.
He hugged her and whispered in her ears, “I’m willing to give you my weakness. Then, you
wouldn’t be able to differentiate all the different scents. You wouldn’t have these kinds of worries after this, right?”
“You’re right,” Fia said helplessly. “But I gave it a thought just now. Britney didn’t offend me. If I were to sentence
her all because of the scent, it would make me feel like I’m egoistic. Like a crazy
woman.”
Conrad remembered that she said Esme liked peach blossom fragrance.
“You didn’t do anything wrong to be on your guard.”
“Really? You don’t think that I’m making something out of nothing?”
Conrad kissed her cheek lightly and whispered, “If I didn’t have this flaw of being unable to differentiate all the
scents, I would be just like. you.
Fia thought about how paranoid he was. Wasn’t that the truth?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she first met Jason, she bought him a necktie as a thank-you gift. Even then he became so jealous of him that
his mind went wild.
“Let’s go to the courtyard.” She led him out of the bedroom.
When Conrad noticed how awkward she was walking, he carried her again.
Once they were downstairs, they met up with Mrs. Whitley and he told her to clean up the bedroom.
As a man, he couldn’t really take all the balloons and the roses in his bedroom.
Fia didn’t stop him. She had already saved a lot of romantic photos from last night in her phone.
They reached the courtyard, where they planted plants of every season.
There was no need to worry if there were no flowers. Autumn flowers such as chrysanthemums were in full bloom.
Once Fia got down, she dragged him to the flowers and pulled him down.
“Have a smell with me.”
Conrad gave it a smell, but everything smelled the same to him.
Fia got closer to the chrysanthemums, took a deep breath, and said quietly, “The scent of the chrysanthemum is
fragrant and sweet, with a little bitterness.”
Conrad got closer to the flowers and sniffed deeper.
While it was obvious that the scent of the flowers was stronger here than somewhere without flowers, he really
couldn’t tell.
