Chapter 744
“Sally.” He used great strength to smile at Sally gently and warmly and rubbed her head gently.
“No matter if it’s me, or you, or anyone else, we have all grown up and have our own lives. We all have the people
we like respectively, we have our own secrets and now, there is no one who can be our role models anymore.
“We need to be our own role models. Don’t look to anyone else, also don’t hold too many hopes toward others.
That way, we are able to keep true to our initial selves and be ourselves.”
Sally’s eyes opened wide, staring at Peter.
The tears in her eyes were like pearls falling off a broken string, rolling down from the corner of her eyes like a river
flowing, unable to stop no matter what.
Peter could not face his little sister who had grown from a little girl into a gentle and kind girl. He pushed aside her
hand that was grabbing his sleeve, found an excuse about work, and left hurriedly.

Her brother had changed.
Even if she did not wish to admit it, she could feel it.

Conrad carried Fia out of the car, and instructed the bodyguards to strengthen the defense and not let any
outsiders in when he entered the courtyard.
After entering the villa, he instructed Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Whitley to be more attentive toward their food.
After he gave his instructions, he lowered his head to look at Fia who was in his embrace. “Do you feel
uncomfortable anywhere?”
Fia shook her head. “I’m fine. Don’t keep carrying me. Put me down.”
“Don’t move.” He carried her to the sofa and carefully put her down.
He squatted before her and asked, “Are you thirsty? Do you want to have anything to drink?”
Fia looked at him a little speechlessly. “I’m not thirsty.”
“Then are you hungry?”
“The lunch we had hasn’t even been digested.” She massaged the center of her brows.
Seeing her do so, Conrad quickly moved her hand aside and helped massage her personally.
“Do you feel uncomfortable here?”
“No.” Fia was quite helpless. “It’s just a little depressing, so I simply massaged the center of my brows.”
“Alright, I’ll help you massage.”
He had just massaged a couple of times when she swatted his hand away.
“Alright. If you continue to massage, I’d be even more depressed.”
“Why?” Conrad was unable to understand. “Is there any problem with the strength I’m using?”
“You are so careful that it’s making me more depressed!” Fia said.
Conrad frowned and took out some pills.

Fia looked at him with a deep gaze. “I’m pregnant. I can’t take this medicine.”
Conrad frowned. “Just now when I asked the doctor to prescribe the medicine, she didn’t say that you can’t take it.”
“She was shocked by you and forgot to tell you. Also, I’ve been pregnant before, so she more or less thought that I
would know,” Fia explained patiently.
Conrad’s expression was terrible. “Quack!”
Fia looked at him, and felt the need to talk about more serious matters clearly.
“Conrad, we have to talk about this nodule and about the child.”
Conrad avoided her gaze, got up and said, “I’m thirsty. I’m going to get some water. Do you want a glass?”
Fia shut up and decided to let him think about it before talking.
Anyway, she wanted to keep the child no matter what! From now on, she needed to pay attention to all aspects and
could no longer repeat the same mistakes!
Even if… Even if the nodules would grow bigger with her pregnancy, she would not give up. Conrad went to the
kitchen and drank two cups of icy water at one go.
