Chapter 1068
Fia held Britney’s hand tightly and chuckled. “I’m already in this state… I’m not even worried about dying. But I’m
betting that he won’t kill me and that he needs me for an even greater scheme he’s planning!”
Britney remembered her suffering and wanted to remind Fia about it, but she stopped.
No one was willing to bare their wounds that had just healed for others to see.
“Take care, then,” she said before helping Fia down on a chair and helping her with makeup.
Fia looked at her reflection in the mirror. She was so pretty… But her heart had already shattered into a million
pieces.
Every time it shattered, she had to pick them all up and plaster the pieces back together.
This time, she didn’t want to do it anymore.
If only she could simply throw away all the memories of him like she was throwing away the
trash.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Britney, you’re so good at makeup. Why did you end up doing research?”
Britney’s hand stopped. “That’s right. If I didn’t become a researcher, I wouldn’t have
followed him, and I wouldn’t end up like this. But it’s so hard for us to find someone that we can devote our whole
self to… How can I simply let that man pass me by?”
Fia quietly curled her hands into a fist, and she refused to let go even when her palm was bleeding.
She didn’t want to pursue someone like that anymore!
Never!
“Fia…” Britney bent down to carefully powder her face. “Conrad and Peter are different.”
Fia said nothing. They were different people with different personalities, but they let them down all the same.
Britney whispered without moving her mouth, “Maybe, he’s doing this to save you.”
Fia froze and looked at Britney’s eyes.
Britney nodded at her, to prevent her master from noticing she was consoling Fia.
“You’re so pretty, Fia!” She then stuck a rose petal underneath her left eye. “This will be so much better.”
Fia could see her fear and said, “Will I be prettier than the bride today?”
“Yes,” Britney said earnestly. “Esme has never been prettier than you.”
Fia lowered her head and smiled. It was filled with loneliness and hatred.
“It’s pointless no matter how pretty this bag of bones is.”
He didn’t like her. Didn’t love her. And he could sacrifice her at any time.
“I’m leaving now. Please wait here for the master’s arrangement,” Britney said.
Fia nodded. “Alright. I hope that you’ll have a good life after this, that you won’t suffer anymore.”
Britney’s eyes became wet as she cleaned her hand using her clothes and held Fia’s hand.
“If only we’d met when we were little. You and I could definitely be very good friends.”
Fia was stunned and couldn’t react to that.
Britney seemed to have put something in her hand before leaving with her makeup kit.
Fia gripped her hand tightly as her entire body tensed up, but she didn’t dare to show anything on her face.
“You’re here, Conrad!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEsme walked down the stairs in a white wedding dress. When she saw Conrad in the living room, she excitedly ran
toward him while holding her dress.
Mrs. Thomas missed the chance to hold her back, so she simply let her run.
As a mother, she wasn’t sure what had happened.
Britney had been in love with Peter for so many years… but she fell in love with someone else as soon as they
separated?
And she looked like she loved him a lot too.
Conrad didn’t even glance at her and simply said to Silas, “Take her into the car!”
“Today’s our wedding. You have to hold me!” Esme took the initiative and held Conrad’s arm. “Today is our wedding
day. I won’t ask you to carry me, but you must at least hold me.”
Conrad pulled her arm away from his.
He then whispered to her, “You know the truth better than anyone else. There’s no need to act like this, right?”
Esme’s face became pale, and not even her makeup could mask it.
She still went over and held his arm and said, “There are so many people here… Aren’t you worried that he has
someone spying on us?”
