Chapter 1235
Arriving home, Conrad switched on his computer and logged onto Quora to seek advice.
‘How do I reconcile with a woman who despises me?’
In a few minutes, many had left their comments. Well, although there were some helpful comments, most were just
making fun of him.
‘OP, you should give up and chase after another woman.’

‘OP, are you handsome?’
Conrad typed, ‘I’m quite a looker. And I am rich too.’
‘How old are you?’
Conrad answered, “Thirty-four years old.’
‘Oh man! Thirty four?! Thirty and forty are like a man’s best years!’

Conrad had no idea how to respond to these online commenters.

‘Let me get this straight. You’re not ugly and you’re rich. Yet, that girl still hates you? I bet she’s a muff-diver!’
‘What’s a muff-diver?’
Conrad asked with a frown.
‘Really, dude? Did you live under a rock or something? It means she’s a lesbian, man!’

Staring at the comments for a few seconds, Conrad slowly deleted his follow-up questions. Recalling the friendliness
Sia showed to Eileen earlier, Conrad’s mind was completely in disarray throughout the night.
At noon, Sally showed up to bring him the drug. When she was about to leave, Conrad called out to her.
“Doctor Sally!”
Sally turned and asked, “Is there anything else you needed, Mr. Maxwell?”
“Do
you think Ms. Sia is a lesbian, doctor?” Conrad asked with a conflicted look on his face.

Sally was stunned when she heard his question.
“Doctor Sally, is this question that difficult to answer?”
Giving it some thought, Sally answered, “No, it is hardly a difficult question at all. But don’t you think you have too
much time on your hands? Ms. Sia has two children. That shows that she’s conceived babies with a man before,
which in turn means that she’s attracted to men.”
“But the internet says that some women only find out they are homosexual after marriage.” Conrad had a sullen
look on.
Sally found the question to be utterly ridiculous. “Mr. Maxwell, why are you so concerned about her being a lesbian
or not?”

Conrad sat in silence. He could not give her a good reason for that.
“Let’s say she’s actually a lesbian but does not come out as one and decides to keep it to herself. She already has a
family, with two kids. So, just what on Earth are you planning, Mr. Maxwell?”
Sally recalled how much Conrad hurt Fia in the past and continued saying in a sharp tone, “Don’t tell me you’re
going to wreck someone else’s marriage? And rob other people’s children to raise them as your own?”
Conrad’s heart skipped a beat hearing this. His pride would never allow him to do something like this. Yet, he could

In all these years, Sia was the first woman who could bring him such a feeling of bliss.
“When it comes to love, it’s all about the couple’s consent, not about who appeared first in their life.”
“You’re so despicable, Mr. Maxwell!” Sally felt so angry on Fia’s behalf. She turned and left Conrad’s apartment
fuming.
Ignoring the doctor, Conrad brought the drug into his living room and injected five milliliters of it into his
bloodstream according to the manual.
After the injection, he felt a stinging sensation on his arm as he recalled Sia’s beautiful yet cold and indifferent face.
“Thank you for the steak, Mommy! It was delicious!” Adrian said joyfully.
Irene nodded her head and said, “Yes! Yes! It was really yummy!”
Fia added another serving of steak into their plates and said, “Oh, you two can stop with the brown nosing. I’m not
mad anymore.”
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
The children stared at one another for a moment. Then, Adrian hopped down from his seat. “I’m going to get the
door, Mommy.”

Seeing her son hurrying to the door, Fia felt resignedly tired and frustrated.
