Chapter 700
Chapter 700
“Hello.” Fia did her best to suppress her overwhelming anxiety as she opened her mouth.
The phone number had been cancelled a while ago. Perhaps, it now had a new owner.
“Hi, cousie.” A prideful and snobbish woman’s voice could be heard from the phone.
Fia immediately thought of EManning. Still, weirdly, she also thought of Britney Thomas.
“You’re Britney, aren’t you?”
Although she had her suspicions that Britney was actually Esme, hearing this voice made her head spin in confusion.
A smirk could be heard from the phone. “Oh, weren’t you the one who’d decided who I am?”
“Britney! You’re EManning, aren’t you?!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Would you believeif I say I’m not?” the woman taunted.
“Oh, yes, that’s right. The last tI returned from overseas, Conrad immediately wanted to divorce you, am I right? Now, let’s play a game, shall we? If he knows I’m still alive, will he ask to divorce you again this time?”
Fia shook in anger as she clenched her phone.
“After all, men are such despicable dogs. They only know how to treasure something after they’ve lost it. Perhaps, Conrad had already regretted not saving me. If he knows I’m still alive, do you think he will
realize he actually loves me, and treasuremore?”
After finishing her words, the woman hung up the phone.
Fia spent a few seconds fuming before dialling Conrad’s number with her shaky hand.
No one answered.
Her head was now in a complete mess. As Esme’s words still echoed in her head, Fia copied that number and sent it to Jason.
Jason quickly responded to Fia’s message, as he had set Fia’s messages as “important” on his phone.
Finding out where the call was from via GPS was not a big deal for Kent.
Five minutes later, Jason received Kent’s reply. Hence, he gave Fia a call.
“Fia, whose number is it?”
Fia asked hurriedly, “Did you find out where?”
“River Fane,” Jason replied with a stern voice. “Whose number is it?”
Fia was completely stunned upon hearing that. Edied at River Fane, did she not? And now, her number called from that exact location? This was impossible. Could she have turned into a ghost and called her?
Overwhelmed by desperation, Fia yelled to her phone, “No! It’s impossible! There’s no ghost…! There’s no ghost in this world…! She’s still alive! She must be!”
A frown curved on Jason’s face. “It’s Esme’s number, isn’t it?”
“Yes! She just gavea call! She’s still alive!” Fia rushed to her wardrobe to change as she continued
talking to Jason.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJason said cautiously, “Fia, calm down. This could be a trap. Stay at home. I’ll get Conrad to handle this!”
“No, I must go to River Fane! I must find Esme!” Fia hung up, changed her clothes, and ran downstairs. without even bothering tidying up her hair.
Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Whitley saw her rushing down. So, they asked her where she was going.
Fia forced up a smile and said, “I’m heading to the company to find Conrad.”
“Have you given Silas a call? You should ask him to take you there,” Mrs Taylor said.
Fia shook her head, “No. I’ll drive.”
She then went to the garage to fetch one of Conrad’s cars, and drove straight toward River Fane.
Meanwhile, not able to reach Fia via phone, Jason immediately left his office and drove to River Fane too.
Ten minutes later, a Maybach drove in and parked in front of Conrad’s home. There were a lot of scratches and damages on the car.
“Oh my god! What happened?!” Mrs. Taylor screeched fearfully. “Master Maxwell! Master Maxwell, is that you?!”
Conrad stepped out of the car, smiling as blood rolled down from a bump on his forehead. “Is Fia waiting forupstairs?”
Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Whitley were stunned as they heard this. They finally realized something was amiss.
