Chapter 469
“No, I’m acknowledging my mistake,” Conrad said as he tried his best to control his tone and not to show his
emotions.
Fia frowned as she widened her eyes the best she could. As she tried to look at him laying there, her neck almost
broke from turning too much.
Yet, she still couldn’t see his face.
“How so?”
“For making you angry, for making you cry. It’s all my fault.”
If it wasn’t because of their fight, she would have been deceived by his so-called honest attitude!
“Fia…” Conrad suddenly realized something and crouched down by the bed, and put his forehead with hers.
“Why did you suddenly give me a belt and underwear?”
Fia’s face turned red and couldn’t say anything.
Eileen said when a girl gave a boy a belt, it meant that she wanted him to be hers forever.
And underwear was something that someone could only give to another person if they were close.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat was what she wanted to be with Conrad.
“Hm?” His voice was low and raspy. He wanted to tempt her to say it out loud.
“Can’t you check it out yourself?”
“I want you to personally tell me.”
“I don’t want to tell you! You haven’t even found the gifts yet. What’s the point of saying it?”
Conrad gave it a thought and agreed.
He then let go of her and gave Silas a call.
“Sir, a lot of people store and take packages every day. We’re still checking all the security cameras on each level…
It’ll take some time.”
As Silas walked out of the elevator while on the call, Tiger ran over with two shredded boxes.
Conrad’s name was obviously written as the consignee, and it was not something that the courier company had
written.
Silas had seen Fia’s handwriting before and instantly recognized it.
“We found them, sir!”
“Send them over immediately!” Conrad was feeling very excited. Since Fia wasn’t willing to explain the meaning of
sending a belt and
underwear to a man, he would unwrap those gifts right in front of her to tempt her to say it herself.
He had read plenty of experts’ articles, but he still didn’t know what the two gifts meant.
“But…” Silas gulped. “We only found the boxes, not the gifts. Someone took them already.”
Conrad exploded. “Who did that?!”
Silas then asked Tiger about it and then said, “Sir, we found the two packages in the bin outside of the Director of
Foreign Affairs’ office.”
Conrad’s expression turned dark. “What is she up to?!”
“She’s already gone home for the day. I’ll call her right now…”
“Bring her over. I want to personally ask her!”
Conrad hung up the call. He was like an angry lion and he remembered his fights with this Director of Foreign
Affairs.
When he first brought up Fia’s designs at their meeting, Barbara
Thomas, the Director of the Design Department, and the seniors all objected!
Even when Fia’s designs had helped the company reach new heights in sales, Barbara still said that Fia was still too

“Why did you ask me here to the hospital, Mr. Maxwell?” Barbara was wearing black, silken pajamas. It wasn’t sexy
at all. Instead, she looked very stern.
She walked in, arms folded, her beautiful face filled with pride.
She glanced at the wife of her boss coldly without paying her much respect.
“I’ll give you one chance. Apologize!” Conrad turned around and ordered her coldly.
Barbara was stunned. Even when their opinions didn’t match during work, her boss had never said something to
her in such an
overbearing tone.
“Are you sick in the head in the middle of the night?”
“Madam Barbara. Can you please clarify why you took two of the boss ‘packages? Those are birthday gifts that the
madam bought for him,” Silas explained to Barbara. “You’re not lacking money, right? Please return them,
otherwise, he is just going to get angry.”
Barbara was stunned for a few seconds and then looked at Silas as if she was looking at some idiot.
