Chapter 965
“Why aren’t you coming home? Do you wanna sleep on the street?”
“I’m coming hnow.” Conrad stood up and said to Sapphire, “I’ll find tto talk to Victor tomorrow. I’ll tell him not to meet Eileen after she comes back.”
Hope glittered in Sapphire’s eyes when she heard that. “Really?”
“I’ll do what I can.”
Then, Conrad held Fia’s hand and they walked home.
Along the way, Fia asked softly, “Are you going to tell Victor your suspicion that Eileen is Jason’s sister?”
“Yes,” Conrad answered without hesitation. Even though he was not able to confirm anything yet, telling Victor this would at least resolve this situation between Victor, Eileen, and Sapphire.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFia stopped in her tracks and asked, “Can I ask you and Victor not to tell Eileen?”
Letting out a sigh, Conrad embraced her and said, “Alright. I won’t tell Eileen. You have my word.”
Still, Eileen could still learn of this from other sources… but this was out of his hands.
“If you and Victor don’t say anything, she won’t know.”
“Hopefully.” Conrad still felt that this was not a matter that was easy to keep secret about.
When they got back to their bedroom, Fia immediately gave Eileen a call after urging Conrad to take a bath.
Eileen was overjoyed to receive a call from her best friend. “Fia! I was about to call you! My flight is one hour away. We’ll finally meet again after twenty hours!”
Fia was stunned hearing this. She was about to ask her what she would do if she met Victor but she could not bring herself to ask her. “When will you be arriving? Givea call when you’re at the airport. I’ll go get you.”
“Sure! I should get moving and catch the flight. Let’s talk later.”
“Okay!”
After hanging up, Fia thought about Sapphire’s request. She could not help getting worried. It would not take much for a good person to turn rotten overnight. Sapphire loved Victor so much. Thus, it was highly possible for her to attempt anything on Eileen when she returned. Fia decided that she needed to remind Conrad to keep a close eye on Eileen so they could protect her.
The next morning, someone rang the Maxwell villa’s doorbell. It was so early in the morning that Conrad and Fia were not out of bed
yet.
After learning the identity of the visitor, the bodyguards sent Mrs. Whitley to inform Conrad.
“What’s the matter, Mrs. Whitley?” Conrad, still in his pajamas, opened the door and asked.
Mrs. Whitley whispered, “It’s Mr. Parker’s secretary. He said Mr. Parker wants to treat you and the madam to lunch. He has booked a table at a restaurant.”
Conrad nodded and said, “Tell that secretary that I’ll pass the word to Fia. But I can’t promise anything.”
“Understood.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMrs. Whitley then rushed downstairs to relay the message.
Conrad was impressed with Conall’s sincerity in seeing his daughter. It was still early in the morning yet he had already booked a place for lunch for Fia.
Still, Conrad was not sure if Fia would go.
Returning to the bedroom, Conrad saw Fia looking at him with drowsy eyes. “Who was it?”
“Mrs. Whitley.”
“What’s going on?” Fia sat up and swept up her hair with her hands. “She wouldn’t disturb us if it wasn’t important.”
Sitting at their bed, Conrad said, “Mr. Parker sent his secretary here earlier. He invited us to lunch.”
“Lunch? It’s still early in the morning.” Fia frowned. “Shouldn’t it be breakfast?”
Conrad beamed at her. “Perhaps he wants to give you stto think about it. The longer you think about it, the more likely it is for him to have a meal with you.”
Fia stared at Conrad silently for a moment before asking, “So? Do you wantto go?”
“Fia, I can’t decide for you.”
“I see.” Fia had an idea, “I can have lunch with him. But you need to promiseone thing.”
