Chapter 868
The two of them looked at each other.
Conrad’s gaze was complicated. He had more or less heard something.
“Fia, it isn’t like what you think.”
Fia averted her gaze. “Whether it is or not, it can wait until I see her before we talk!”
Conrad frowned and said, “It’s not suitable for you to meet her. She is full of schemes and will provoke your
emotions and agitate you.”
“Are you afraid of me meeting her?” Fia asked coolly. “If you aren’t feeling guilty, then move aside!”
Conrad continued to block her path, and said earnestly, “I am doing it for your good. Your thinking is naive. The
moment she speaks, she is full of lies. You aren’t her match.”
“You’re just feeling guilty!” Fia’s negativity rushed out. “Are you not letting me meet her alone because you’re
afraid that I would hurt her?! Your heart must be very sure that she is Esme!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConrad frowned. “Fia, you are pregnant and cannot be agitated. I will get Silas to send you home.”
“Don’t touch me!” Fia threw Conrad’s hand off and looked at Finn. “I want to see her!”
Finn was helpless and said to Conrad, “Why don’t we let Fia meet her? This is the police. station. Nothing will
happen.”
“No way!” Conrad replied determinedly.
He absolutely could not let Fia meet Esme alone.
After Marcus’ treatment, Fia’s emotions had improved and she was also much happier.
He could not let everything go to waste!
“What if I insist?! Can you do anything to me?!” Fia was about to collapse internally as she pushed Conrad.
Conrad picked her up and said to Finn, “I’ll have to trouble you to continue with the interrogation. I will send the
evidence later!”
“Very well. Go back and discuss properly. Don’t argue anymore and don’t risk a miscarriage,” Finn said.
“Let me go!” Fia kicked and punched Conrad, but she was delicate and light and was not able to resist him at all.
Conrad carried Fia and brought her away through the back. At the entrance, there were a bunch of reporters and
onlookers. If they left now, a big hoo-ha would definitely arise.
In the passenger seat, Fia panted as she looked at Conrad who was getting in the car.
“If you
don’t let me see her, it means that you’re feeling guilty! You are protecting her!”
Conrad held the steering wheel tightly as he held back his manic temper and said, “If I am
protecting her, I’ll die a horrible death, alright?”
Fia was a little stunned and snorted lightly. “Now, you swear so easily. You swear so much that it’s so easy for the
words to come out of your mouth. You aren’t afraid of any punishment. anymore.”
“As long as you’re happy, you can say whatever you want.” Conrad did not wish to fight with
her.
Fia’s emotions suddenly collapsed and her tears fell.
She cried as she said, “You did not experience everything I did. Again and again, I saw you with her. Again and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmagain, I saw you both being intimate. Again and again, you stood on her side… If I knew how things would be, back
then, I would rather…” ‘not marry you!’
She swallowed the words at the tip of her tongue.
Back then, it was her own choice. She carried with her the many years of love for him.
She did not wish to say such cruel words.
Conrad bit his cheeks, trying to speak in a gentle tone. “I know that you’re not feeling great, seeing what you did
today. I won’t take anything you say to me to heart. When everything that is happening settles down, let’s properly
talk again. I will make it up to you, for whatever I owe you.”
“Make it up to me?” Fia cracked an ugly smile and closed her eyes, not willing to continue speaking.
It was easy to talk about compensation, but not at all easy to execute it. Often, the people who want to make
amends don’t know how to do it.
Returning home, Fia went straight to the bedroom, took a bath, and then laid on the bed.
She did not wish to speak now and only wanted to have a good sleep, Conrad stood by the door for a while but did
not enter to disturb her.
