Chapter 751
“I didn’t want you to cry.”
“I’m not a crybaby. Why’d you think I would cry?”
“You really love the Lane twins.” Conrad sighed in dismay. “I was afraid that you might cry when you bid your farewells.”
It was true that he did not want Fia to be emotionally affected. Knowing that he had good intentions, Fia did not press on the matter too much. She lightly shoved him to the door. “You go get Mary and Sharon at the entrance. They should be here any minute now.”
“Okay.”
Thus, Conrad walked to the gates. He was there in tto see Mary and Sharon arriving. Seeing the mother-and-daughter pair, a bodyguard approached them for questioning.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConrad said to the bodyguard, “Let them in.”
The bodyguard obliged and opened the gate, allowing the pair to enter. Conrad took a glance. at them before turning to the bodyguard. “In the future, if you see these two, you can let them in.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Cin. Fia’s waiting for you,” Conrad said in a distant yet polite tone to the pair.
Mary heard a great deal about Conrad from her husband. So she was a little afraid of him. After hearing what Conrad said, Mary hurriedly brought her daughter into the villa.
“Mom, are you afraid of Uncle Conrad?” Sharon asked curiously.
“No!” Mary lowered her head and whispered into her daughter’s ear, “I was respecting him. He helped your daddy secure many business deals. He even helped your daddy to regain the hotel that bad people took from us.”
Sharon turned and looked at Conrad, who was talking to the bodyguard. Then, she whispered back to her mother, “Is he really that capable?and William thought he’s a bad tempered jerk. We thought it’s such a sha goddess like Aunt Fia married him.”
Mary put a finger on her lips and hushed her. “Never say things like that again. William is going through a hard tin the Hellish Training Camp. If he heard you, he might make your brother’s life even harder. You don’t want that, do you?”
Hearing this, Sharon nodded her head repeatedly and shut her mouth.
As the pair walked into the villa anxiously, Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Whitley welcomed them with snacks and drinks. Noticing that Mary and Sharon were more mousey than usual, Fia asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
Mary raised her head and looked at Fia before saying to her in a soft voice, “Do you ever fight with Mr. Maxwell?”
“Yes, we do fight.” Fia responded honestly.
“So does he chastise you when he loses his temper?”
After pondering it for a moment, Fia replied, “No, I wouldn’t call it ‘chastise’. Well… his voice would becreally loud. Does that count as him ‘yelling’ at me?”
“Of course it does!” Sharon answered with an innocent smile, “When Daddy raises his voice with Mommy, Mommy would cry. She would say Daddy was yelling at her!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hush! Hush….!” Mary was so flustered as she tried to hush her daughter. Her daughter had such a big mouth!
Fia looked at Mary, confused. “Mary, do you cry often at home?”
“Well, I tend to act coy with him. That’s all…” Mary lowered her head with a blush.
“Well, that’s just being a woman. So it’s not unusual for us to act coy in front of our lovers sometimes. If we don’t do that, it would mean we don’t love them anymore.”
“Yes! This is what I’ve been telling Tyler. But he said it was just my excuse to lose my temper with him!” Mary felt a little embarrassed all a sudden. So she tried to change the topic. “When you and Mr. Maxwell fight, does he ever hit you? Or toss stuff at you?”
Fia was astonished to hear that. “Did Mr. Lane do that to you?” She paused momentarily before continuing, “Mr. Lane doesn’t look like someone who would commit domestic violence.”
“Of course he’s not like that! Tyler always put on that silly grin on his face all day. He isn’t someone who would hit a woman!” Mary immediately defended her husband.
Fia smiled at her, “Then why would you think my husband would do that?”
Mary pointed at the door and said, “See for yourself. He looks so cold and detached from people around him. You know, like those murderers in horror movies.”
Fia looked at her in confusion. “What?”
