Chapter 355
His boss had been staying in the CEO’s office for about ten days and had not returned home once. He would drown
himself in work every day.
Silas looked at him with hesitation. “Boss, are you saying that you’re not going to help Ms. Manning?”
“What? Do you feel pity for her?” Conrad looked at Silas icily.
Silas quickly shook his head. “I’m just worried that you’ll regret it in the future.”
Conrad jeered. “Even if you think that I can’t differentiate between the good and the bad, I’m willing to sacrifice
everything for her.”
Silas wasn’t sure what else to say.
“How is Fia doing?”
“Ms. Reid had rejected all new work so that she could stay with the madam. The two of them had been staying at
home all this while.”
Conrad nodded. “She made a good friend.”
“True. But you can’t let the madam stay with her forever. You two will…”
“The court will be in session tomorrow. I’ll take her home.”

When Eileen opened her eyes, she realized no one was sleeping next to her. She quickly ran down to the living
room and saw Fia sitting in front of the sewing machine.
“Why are you up so early, Fia? It’s only six in the morning!”
Fia looked at Eileen softly and said with a smile, “Come on. I already finished one of the dresses. Give it a try. Let’s
see if there’s anything that needs to be altered.”
Eileen ran over and held Fia by the neck, saying, “Why are you making it so tough on yourself? I told you there’s no
need to make yourself tired over this.”
“I’m scared.”
“About what?”
Fia looked at Eileen and said, “The future can be unpredictable. I’m scared that I won’t have time in the
future.”
“What are you talking about? We’re still young. We have plenty of time.”
Fia smiled and said nothing. She was worried that something would happen at court today.
She was worried that Conrad would help Esme. That the law wouldn’t punish her. If that happened, she wouldn’t be
able to accept it!
Esme had committed so many crimes… She would make her pay for everything!
For the past ten days, Conrad didn’t look for her at all. Despite her laughing and joking around with Eileen every day
as she worked on the dresses, she got more and more anxious.
She was really worried that Conrad was busy finding a way out for Esme.
If that happened, she would make Esme suffer the consequences of her actions today even if she needed
to sacrifice herself.
Eileen didn’t know what Fia was thinking. She changed into the dress that Fia made for her and she was so happy.
“Fia, I finally managed to wear something you made!
“I love it! This is so pretty! It’s even prettier than all those dresses famous designers ever made for me!” Fia looked
at Eileen running around in the living room barefooted and her expression softened even more. It was a long dress
made from a black fabric.
At the edges of the dress were black feathers that she had weaved in by hand, and they were all sparkling under
the light.
With that perfect figure of hers, she looked like a little witch that had accidentally ended up in the mortal realm.
They were once simple girls, and they both had each other in the dreams of their making.
In the past three years, Eileen had fought hard to fulfill her dreams but she had been stuck there, with no progress.

“I really, really love it!” Eileen happily lay down on the carpet and grabbed her phone, then transferred a sum of
money.
Fia heard her phone ping, which meant a new message had come in.
“Got the money?” Eileen asked. When she saw Fia was still somewhat distracted, she walked over and flicked her
finger at her forehead.
“Fia, I’m talking to you. Why are you staring into air like that?”
Fia blinked and got back to her senses. “The court will be in session today. I want to go there later.”
“I’ll go with you!” Eileen looked at her phone and checked the message from the bank. When she confirmed that
the 1.5 million dollars had been received, she gave the phone back to Fia.
When Fia looked at the message, her eyes became red and she held Eileen tightly in her arms.
“Eileen… I must have saved the galaxy in my previous life to be able to see you in this life.”
“What are you talking about? You must have met me this life because you treated me especially well in your
previous life! That’s why we’re best friends!”
The two women held each other, as they felt their cold hearts grow warmer.
