Chapter 585
In the end, Tyler hadn’t expected Conrad to give up on the northern suburbs just like that.
“There will be other chances,” Conrad said calmly. He didn’t want to talk about things that had already been done
and were in the past.
“Yes, there will be many chances, but the good ones will be less!” Tyler said with a sigh. “Never mind. You’re a
stubborn and proud man, so I’m sure you wouldn’t like being lectured.”
Conrad looked at Tyler and said, “If you have the chance to visit Gryphon, Fia and I will host you and your family.”
“I’m busy lately and don’t have the time. How about the end of the year? I can bring my wife and kids to visit you
two then.”
“Sure.”
“By then, I hope to hear some good news from you!” Tyler said with a smile and wiggled his brows. “Work hard,
okay? It’s easier to plant a seed than it is to be pregnant for ten months.”
“Ahem!” Conrad cleared his throat. He was rarely embarrassed, but his face turned slightly red from Tyler’s words.
Tyler laughed even louder when he saw this happen.

Fia had her attention on the half-finished sand castle and was trying her best to finish it.
“We’ll have some in the future.”
“Will they be as good-looking as me and my sister?” the little boy asked. Now that he was a little more familiar and
comfortable with Fia, he was less shy and was talking more.
Fia smiled tenderly at the two curious children.
“Yes. They’ll be just as good-looking and kind as you both. They’ll be the most cherished children
too!”
“Then, my brother and I will definitely visit you to see your children when the time comes!” the little girl declared.
“Y-yeah! And we’ll bring delicious food!” the little boy added.
Fia smiled, then asked curiously, “So, darlings, what are your names?”
“I’m Sharon! My brother is William! I got my name because of a beautiful flower!!”
“What about me?”
Sharon scratched her head. “Umm… I can’t remember…”
“Does it mean ‘protector’?” Fia asked without much thought.

“Yes,” Mary said as she walked up to the three of them, smiling gently at Fia.
“Mommy!” Sharon and William jumped up to hug Mary’s legs.
Fia also stood and smiled back at Mary. “Hello again, Mrs. Lane.”
Mary patted her two children on their heads and said, “Thank you, Mrs. Maxwell.”
It’s not like I had anything else to do. Playing with the kids was a fun way to pass time.
Mary didn’t mention that she had overheard what Fia had said to the children and thanked her for being sincere
and letting Mary realize that she hadn’t been a good mother.
Rather than only making superficial talk, Mary chose to thank Fia for her kind words and worked on being a better
mother.
“Dinner’s ready. Let’s go wash up, okay? We can start eating once my husband and Mr. Maxwell come down from
the study.”
“Sure,” Fia replied, glancing at the setting sun in the west.
Time had really flown by so quickly.

“Pretty lady, why don’t you have a sleepover at our house tonight?”
“Huh?” Fia didn’t think it was appropriate but didn’t know how to refuse directly without hurting the child. She
looked at Mary, hoping the other woman would say something.
“That’s a good idea. We have a guest room,” Mary said instead.
“Yes! Pretty lady can sleep with me!” Sharon said excitedly.
“You…”
Mary was about to reprimand her when Fia smiled gently and said, “It’s okay. You don’t have to scold her. Her
arrangement sounds good, and there’s nothing wrong with it.”
Mary felt a little embarrassed, thinking about the conversation between Fia and her two children she had overheard
earlier.
“I’m only worried she’ll kick you while she’s sleeping.” Mary said.
“Well, kids will toss and turn and kick in their sleep, but I’m sure it won’t hurt,” Fia said as she picked Sharon up in
her arms. “So, will I get half of your bed tonight?”
Sharon happily replied, “Yes!”
William, who was holding his mother’s hand, looked a little upset.
“I… I also want to sleep together with you.”
