Chapter 399
Chapter 399
“Rest? What rest?!” Beryl instantly shifted her attention from Eileen to Fia.
She glanced at him and said, “Can’t she walk herself, Conrad? She needs you to pick her up now?!”
Conrad glared at her coldly. “Watch your tone, Mother.”
“Just what did she do to seduce you like this? She’s blind! Why haven’t you divorced her yet!”
Conrad didn’t want to waste his breath on her and said, “Mrs. Taylor, send her away!”
“Master Maxwell, I… Well…” Mrs. Taylor was having a headache.
Yes, she didn’t like Beryl too, but she was Conrad’s birth mother after all. She couldn’t get rid of her just like that.
“I’ll do it!” Eileen huffed and puffed away and cback with a broom in her hand.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe held the broom high and yelled at Beryl, “Scram! Or I’m going to sweep you out of this place!”
“Who do you think you are? This is my son’s house and I’m his mother!”
“With a mother like this, I pity him!” Eileen gritted her teeth. “You either scram or I’m going to give you a hand!”
With that, she pounced at Beryl with the broom.
Beryl looked at her in disbelief and ran toward Conrad and pulled his arm.
“How can you be so heartless?! I’m your mother! How can you let an outsider bullylike this!”
Conrad frowned and let go of one of his hands holding Fia and
“Enough!”
Pushed his mother away.
He then put Fia on the ground and protected her behind him and he stared at her angrily.
“Do you think you’d still be able to stand on your feet if it isn’t because you’re my birth mother?!”
Beryl stared with wide eyes. Her son was cold toward her at most in the past, but he wouldn’t yell at her with that kind of tone.
It was all Fia’s fault! She must have gossiped behind her back!
“Do you still treatas your mother?!”
Conrad went silent for two seconds. “You have to respect Fia first.”
Beryl shook her head in disbelief. But when she remembered how Esme’s life ended… She wondered just what Fia did to seduce him so completely. She also didn’t know what happened to her son to make him do what he did to his first love.
She knew that she had little relationship with her son. How Eended made her fall into a panic. That was why she would nervously show up here.
Suddenly, she realized that she could no longer keep her son in check.
She had to find another woman to charm Conrad. Only then could she retain her influence in the Maxwell household!
“Alright, there’s something I need your help with.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFia stood behind Conrad and smiled mockingly.
She knew that her mother-in-law was someone that couldn’t stay still. She wondered what kind of mess she was going to start this time.
“Eileen, taketo the sofa.”
She wanted to sit down so that she could listen to the show that was going to unfold.
Eileen stared at Beryl and threw the broom away before helping Fia sit down.
Beryl knew that this was not the tto fight with those two. She held Conrad’s hand pitifully. “My son, I need your help with something. It has nothing to do with Fia! It won’t affect her!”
Conrad lowered his eyes. “Tellthen.”
“One of my relatives has a daughter and they aren’t doing well. She’s studying for her doctorate and is looking for work. Can you arrange for her to join your company?”
Conrad stared at Beryl. “What kind of work?’
“You only have Silas helping you, right? The company is so big, and you have so much to do… Why not find a secretary to help you? That girl…”
“Not bad, Beryl!” Fia cut Beryl off with a laugh. “What you’re doing right now is how the queen mother would arrange concubines for the king in ancient times!”
Beryl stared at Fia. “Why don’t you leave?! You don’t have work experience and you’re even blind now! What can you help him with?!”
“Mother!” Conrad’s stern voice erupted, and his eyes were like knives as he stared at her.
“I… Well… I got angry because of her. Not only did she cutoff when I was talking with you, she even accusedof something ridiculous.” Beryl didn’t dare to look straight into her son’s eyes.
