Chapter 343
“You cannot smile at men other than me!” Conrad said in a domineering tone. However, he himself was stunned
when the words came out.
“Why can’t I smile at other men? Why must I only smile at you alone?” Fia asked with a frown. She
couldn’t understand him anymore.
Conrad’s heart suddenly skipped a beat as he pulled Fia into his arms and kissed her.
What he did was so sudden that she let go of her luggage.
They were husband and wife. While they had bonded in flesh, Fia remembered that they had never kissed like this.
And now, he held her waist in one arm and raised her chin with the other, as if he was tasting the sweetness of the
fruit.
“Fia… I think I love you now,” Conrad whispered into her ears after he kissed her.
Fia felt her heart beating like crazy and she trembled..

what love is?”
“I do.” He caressed her with his arms and pulled her into his embrace.
“I don’t want to interact with any other women other than you. I don’t want to live together with them.”
Fia’s eyes instantly became wet. If only he told her this before Esme came back.
But after so many things had happened, she was afraid to bear any hope in his words despite being moved.
“Fia, can we stop fighting? Can we not divorce?” Fia gulped with difficulty.
“We all need a rebirth.”
Conrad silently muttered the word in his mind as his thoughts began to quickly process all the moments since he
had known her.
When they were young, his understanding of her was affected by Esme’s poisonous words.
Thanks to that, he had been unable to understand her properly.
During their marriage, they were simply married in flesh. They would do things that a husband and wife would do,
but there was no love.
But now, he didn’t want a divorce because of love. He wanted to make her stay.
How despicable that was.
He owed her too much.
“You know what?” Fia raised her head and looked at Conrad with tears in her eyes. “Love is not something that can
simply be spoken of.
“It’s not a chain that you can use to lock someone up.
“You say that you love me, but what have you ever done for me? Must I accept it unconditionally just because you
say you love me?” Each question she asked pierced into his heart.
He slowly let go of her, his amber eyes cold and calm.
“About the rebirth… You won’t disappear, right?” He needed to confirm it.
Fia couldn’t answer him. Even she didn’t have some of the answers herself. The only thing she wanted to do was
end this crumbling marriage.

Conrad bent down and held her shoulders.
“You won’t disappear after our divorce, right?
“You won’t ignore me, right? You’ll give us a chance to get to know each other again, right?” He asked as he stared
right into her eyes.
Fia looked away as she couldn’t bear being looked at and questioned like that.
“I can’t promise you anything right now.”
“Why?” Conrad frowned. “Are you saying that you don’t want to have anything to do with me anymore after our
divorce?”
Fia was silent for a bit.
“There’s a possibility that I want to travel after the divorce. I’ve only lived in Gryphon and I’ve never left this city. I
want to go out and take a look at the outside world.
“I might notice that a certain place might be more suitable for me during my travels and I won’t come back again.”
With that, her eyes looked into Conrad’s firmly. “That’s why I can’t promise you anything. I don’t have a duty to
promise you anything anyway, sir.”
