Chapter 432
After Fia and Conrad finished breakfast, he carried her into the car
Fia sat in the passenger seat, nervously wringing her hands together. When she heard Conrad get into the driver’s
seat, she asked worriedly, “Why don’t I wait till I get my college diploma before following you to
the office?”
She was worried that his employees would see her and think that she was a disgrace, since she was not only blind,
but she also didn’t have any qualifications!
Conrad took her hand and said in a calm and forceful voice, “A person’s talent in more than just a diploma. The two
designs that my company bought from you led to a new wave of business No one will look down on you when I tell
them that you were the designer responsible for that’
“But how do I explain that I don’t have my diploma right now…7”
“You’ve been smart since you were a child. I’m sure it won’t take long before you have it in hand.
Fia’s mind was still in a mess, so it was good that Conrad had arranged everything for her. She had thought about
her academic qualification a long time ago and wanted to complete it one day. But she had thought she would only
do it once she was divorced and had her freedom.

She was afraid that she would disappoint and disgrace him if she were to fail.
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll embarrass you?”
“Hmm?” Conrad tilted his head to the side, clearly confused.
“Your mother said that as your wife, I shouldn’t embarrass you. I need to be mindful of every word I say. and action
I take.”
Conrad felt the guilt in his heart intensify as he recalled what Mrs. Taylor had said about what his mother had done
to Fia.
His grip on her hand tightened.
“Remember this, Fia. You’re my wife. You’re not a slave or a puppet. You’re free to have things that you like to do. If
you want to do it, just go for it. Don’t think about anything else.”
Fia could feel the intensity behind his words, and she hastily nodded. “I’ll try my best.
On the way to Maxwell Corporation, Silas went through the applications for the translator position in the company.
The human resource department had picked out five from several hundred resumes.
After the interviews for the first four applicants, the last applicant walked in with a duffel bag on her back.
Silas looked up and froze.
The girl was wearing a plain floral dress. She had long, silky hair that draped across her shoulders, and her skin was
fair. Her face was quite bare, and the only makeup she had was to darken her eyebrows and lipstick.
She had pretty features, and the reason Silas froze was because he was reminded of Fia’s face when he looked at
the girl before him.
“Hello, everyone. My name is Annie Parker. I graduated from Cambridge University and am proficient in eight
languages…”
After a quiet and sweet self-introduction, Annie looked nervously at Silas and the other candidates who had applied
for the job.
“You know so many different languages?” Silas sald with slight incredulousness
He glanced down at her resume, noting that she was not even twenty-one years old, yet she was already a Ph.D.
student. She had jumped five grades in elementary school and finished her university course when she was a junior
in high school before heading straight to a foreign country.
In other words, this girl sounded absolutely amazing!
This part made Silas think of Fla. He recalled that she had also skipped a grade in elementary school but hadn’t
been as aggressive as Annie.
Annie immediately put down her duffel bag and pulled out a stack of language tests and textbooks.

Silas accepted the stack and looked through it. When he was done, he looked up to study Annie.
She was young, but she sounded a little too capable. That many languages took a lot of time to learn, after all.
Silas called the human resource department to have them bring a document and handed it to Annie.
“Please translate this document into the eight different foreign languages you said you were proficient in.”
Silas wasn’t very well versed in many foreign languages, but everyone present in the room could speak a few. If
Annie was lying and trying to deceive him, it would soon be exposed as soon as she started speaking.
In less than half an hour, Annie did as instructed and translated the document into the eight languages int a smooth
manner. The longer she spoke, the wider the eyes around her got.
“Mr. Whitney, her language skills are indeed exceptional!”
“With a talent like hers, she can be Mr. Maxwell’s personal translator!”
Silas took another look at Annie’s resume. She had experience working as a secretary when she was abroad. Since
Conrad had to accompany his wife, try to get a foothold in the capital city’s business circle, and sign some deals
with foreign corporations all at the same time, the man would indeed require such a talent by his side!
And so, a unanimous vote was passed.
