Chapter 296
Chapter 296
“Why are you still smoking?” Sapphire looked at Conrad’s pockets. She could see the pack of cigarettes.
Conrad didn’t explain. Instead, he openly took out a cigarette and sat. He put it into his mouth and lit it up.
“What is it?”
I’m here to visit Fia. But I can hear that she’s still angry. I guess I shouldn’t go in.”
Sapphire took out an envelope and stuffed it into Conrad’s hand.
Conrad could feel the weight of the envelope. There were at least a thousand dollars in there.
You don’t have the right to say no. This is for Fia. Buy her something nutritious.”
“You think I wouldn’t get her food?”
It’s from me,” Sapphire said as she chose a seat that was two seats away from Conrad and sat down.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Last tI was here, I said something that was unkind to her. Please apologize to her on my behalf.”
Conrad tossed the envelope and it fell on the seat in between them. “I got it. Take the money back.”
“Why are you so bullheaded, Conrad? She’s your wife. I’m representing your family to visit her seeing that Aunt Beryl didn’t even visit her. What would she think about that? At least, let her know that your family
cares!
Conrad blew out a ring of smoke before taking another puff.
“I know how your temper has been since you were little and you don’t care about families and friends, but you can’t survive on your own alone in this world. For example, you can’t calm her down even when she’s hurting when you’re alone.”
Conrad gave Sapphire a glance.
“Fine. You go in there and visit her. Give her the money yourself.”
Sapphire hesitated. “I’m worried that she would be unhappy.”
“She won’t. She likes you,” Conrad said. And he was very sure of it.
“Fine. I’ll go visit her then.”
Sapphire took the envelope and walked into the ward.
“Didn’t I tell you to leave?!” Fia growled when she heard the door creak open.
“It’s me, Fia.”
“Sapphire?” Fia was slightly stunned. “Why are you here?”
“I’m worried about you so I came,” Sapphire said carefully.
Fia scoffed at herself. “Don’t worry. I’m still in one piece.”
“Fia… Conrad still cares about you,” Sapphire said as she sat on the chair next to the bed and moved it forward, so she could get closer to Fia.
Fia’s eyes began to be filled with emotion. “No matter what happened, I was still his wife for three years. No matter if it was good or bad, I am still, in the end, the madam of the Maxwell household. It’s normal for him to care about that.”
“It’s not that, Fia. I think… Conrad likes you too.”
“He likes me? I don’t think I can afford his affection.”
Ever since Ecback, he had done so many things that hardened her heart more and more. Everything he did only made her feel even angrier.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Fia, now that Conrad has finally seen through Eand personally had her sent to the police station, are you really not going to give him a chance?”
Fia gulped as she could feel her chest becheavy.
It was not possible for her to completely give up her feelings for that man.
But…
She was just too tired. She didn’t want to fight for it anymore.
“It’s okay, Sapphire. He and I… We’re a mistake.”
“Aren’t you going to tell Conrad that you’ve loved him for so many years?”
Fia yelled out as if someone stepped on her tail. “I don’t love him at all! He’s in love with Esme! I’m just the third wheel!”
Sapphire shook her head miserably and said, “Alright. I won’t say it anymore. Take care.”
With that, she stood up and bent over to give Fia a caress as Fia was tightening her body. She also left the envelope under her pillow without leaving a trace.
“How was it? Is she still angry at me?”
Conrad asked nervously when the door opened and Sapphire walked out.
“Conrad, there’s something that you need to work on. Sapphire patted Conrad’s shoulder. She hesitated
a moment before saying, “My wedding with Victor is next month. July 20th.”
She chose the date herself.
