Chapter 478
Victor smiled like a gentleman and didn’t show any anger at not being welcomed at all.
Once inside, he put his hands in his pockets before looking at Fia and pretending as if he cared.
“Why did you get admitted to the hospital this time?”
Fia smiled and said, “You’re quite good at gathering information, Victor. There’s no need to joke at my expense.”
“Hm?” Victor narrowed his eyes, realizing that Fia seemed to have changed.
It seemed that the meek girl that had few words had gained much confidence.
Sapphire didn’t want Victor to ruin their relationship with his cousin and his wife, so she quickly sat down next to Fia
and put the gifts on
the coffee table.
“Fia, I don’t know what you like to eat so I bought a lot of
supplements. Look at you… You’re so slim… You have to eat more.”
Fia had mixed feelings. She turned and looked at the blurry figure of Sapphire and said, “Thank you, Sapphire.”
“No need to thank me. We’re all family. I hope that you won’t find fault with me for coming late.”

control of the internal affairs, and he’ll take control of the external ones.”
Fia frowned without saying anything.
She remembered that before Sapphire got married, she had an art
gallery.
Conrad talked to her about it once. Sapphire loved to draw and she even had her own art exhibition. She also won
many awards.
Sapphire tried to cheer up. “When I saw that you didn’t do much at home every day, I was somewhat looking down
at you. But now that I’m married, I find it even more tiring than working as there are plenty of things for me to
worry about for my husband.”
Fia’s heart felt somewhat heavy but she still didn’t say anything.
“I would send Victor to work and wait for him to return. I would worry if he encountered anything unhappy at work.
I make different dishes. for him every day. I need to prepare the clothes that he will wear. I have to iron them, pair
them up, and then…”
“Why are you talking about that?!” Victor said and stared at Sapphire coldly.
Sapphire saw his eyes and was shocked, letting go of Fia’s hands.
“I’m just talking with Fia, wanting to learn from her experience.”
Fia held Sapphire’s hand, pretending to be a blind woman. She then turned and looked in Victor’s direction. “Victor,
maybe you can help Conrad and Mrs. Whitley cook. Let me speak with Sapphire for a bit.”
Victor didn’t say anything and simply stared at Sapphire threateningly.
He couldn’t help but feel angry as he looked at the dark eyes that not even her makeup could cover.
Why did she make herself look like that? To whom did she want to show it? Did he starve her? Or did he not clothe
her?
For Fia? What could a blind woman see?
Even if she saw it, Fia couldn’t do anything to him!
“Victor? You’re a man… Don’t tell me you’re worried about me talking
with Sapphire?”,
Victor pulled his collar and walked to the kitchen angrily.
He suddenly saw the door of a guest room was left half-closed when he was halfway there.
He then remembered a van that stopped outside. He was sure that Eileen was inside!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFia saw Victor’s figure leaving in a blur, and she then held Sapphire’s hand tightly.
She mumbled, “Does he bully you at home?”
“He doesn’t,” Sapphire said in a low voice. “But I did say those words in front of him on purpose. I want him to know
that I don’t laze around at home. I live only for him, and I even gave up my career.”
“Do you have any regrets, Sapphire?” Fia couldn’t help but ask.
Sapphire trembled as she tried to pull her hand away.
“Why did you ask the same question as Conrad? He didn’t understand me… But you have to understand me, right?”
Fia then said, “Sapphire… Victor is different from Conrad.”
“They’re different, but our love is the same, isn’t it?”
Fia couldn’t say anything else.
“Conrad’s as stubborn as a bull. If you don’t tell him, he’ll never know that you’ve loved him for many years. But
we’re both women with the same experience. I understand you!” Sapphire’s tone became even higher. “I didn’t
realize that even you belittle my feelings.”
“It’s not like that. I don’t look down on your feelings. It’s just that Victor isn’t worthy of you,” Fia whispered, worried
that Victor would hear her.
