Chapter 603
Conrad, seeing that Fia had begun to ponder on the matter, knew that he needed to talk with her about it. Or else,
she would not set her mind at rest leaving the project to them.
“Come here. I’ll tell you about it.”
Fia pouted. “No! You’ll get naughty and start touching me all over again!”
“Alright.” Conrad smiled and stood up from his seat and walked toward her.
*Fia panicked and hugged a pillow nearby.
“Hey, I’m warning you! You better not slack off from work!”
“I’m not slacking off. I just want to pat my dear wife.”
“Ah!” He caressed her at those “right” spots again! Fia hit him with the pillow in her hands and pouted. “I’ll get mad
if you don’t stop this nonsense at once!”
“Alright, alright. I’ll stop.” He scooped her up from her chair and brought her to the guest sofa in the office’s living
area.
He cuddled with her and warned her lightly. “Fi… If you keep struggling like this, I’m afraid I may just lose it and
have my way with you.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFia froze as she felt that his body heat was warmer than usual.
“There was nothing wrong with your designs for the project. You are as capable as they get in designing those.
Besides, if there’s anyone who’d oppose using your designs, I’ll always side with you and shut them down. Don’t
worry about what others think. Focus on what you want to do and continue with your creative work. If they think
you’re not up for it, then prove them wrong with your work. Alright?”
As he spoke softly to her, Conrad gently pinched her waist. “Focus on your designs. Leave the
rest to me.”
“I… I just worry that the management would think you’ve lost your head just to please me.’
“I don’t care what they think.” Conrad then thought about Argonauts Corp. “Argonauts Corp. has been using the
designs from the same person since its founding. Their brand still stands proudly in the market to this day.”
“Oh, I’ve heard of this story!” Fia raised her hand gleefully. “Rumor has it that the boss of Argonauts Corp loves his
wife so much that he started the ‘Gentle Stream’ brand. And every design of this brand was drawn entirely by his
wife!”
“Exactly.” Conrad’s eyes turned cold. He did admire Argonauts Corp’s means of survival in this harsh and brutal
business world. However, he couldn’t find anything admirable in that boss and his vixen wife.
“Do you know the boss of Argonauts Corp?” Fla did not catch Conrad’s displeasure of mentioning that company’s
boss and curiously asked, “Who is he? Legend says that he’s already in his fifties or sixties! Is it true?”
Conrad closed his eyes and asked, “Why are you interested in his age?”
“It’s just that I think this story is very romantic. I wonder if he was a young lad. Or maybe, he’s on the older side?”
Conrad pressed the inner of his mouth with his tongue before answering, “He’s in his sixties.”
-“Oh, then perhaps when you meet him next time, can you bring me along too?”
“Why do you want to meet him?”
“Teehee, actually… I want to meet his wife. I’m just curious about what kind of woman she is. That a business
tycoon like him would sacrifice so many business opportunities just to please his wife!”
“How do you know he had given up on opportunities though?” Conrad’s eyes became as chill
as ice.
Fia had herself tightly in his embrace, so she could not see Conrad’s expression. All she knew was that he was
speaking softly to her.
She did not know that her husband was now in a really foul mood.
“Because no matter how gifted a designer is, one day they will be out of ideas. Besides, inspirations for good
designs don’t come to us all the time. An employer should hire more talented designers to continue supplying his
company with good designs so he could grow his company!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmConrad took in a good breath before asking, “Then, to you, am I a heartless husband who would not give up any
opportunity and maximize profit?”
“No, that’s not what I meant. It’s just that I don’t think a company can grow healthily by relying on just one
designer. Your majestic business plans are something everyone wants to accomplish. Yet, so far, no one has
succeeded. Despite that, you’ve done wonderfully all these years!”
Conrad hugged his little, pretty woman in his arms tighter, and whispered, “Then, do you want me to use more of
your designs?”
“No!” She responded with a stern voice, “You’re going to be the historical figure who would one day lead Maxwell
Corporation and march bravely into Lumenpolis, securing a long- lasting place in that city. You must be fair and just
with your dealings. You must make sure your company gets the maximum profit!’
“Fia…” Conrad felt really bad for her.
Chapter 603
His Fia was so naïve and innocent. Now he could finally see it clearly. Esme seemed to be as. gracious as a swan
back then, yet all she did was always ask him to do something for her.
Compared to Esme, Fia was so naive and gullible. His heart ached so much for her after realizing this.
