Chapter 506
Fia gave it a thought as she could hear Jason’s concern in his words. As if he knew about her being kidnapped not
long ago.
“Thank you, Evans. I’ll pay more attention to it.” Fia paused a moment before continuing, “You knew about my
kidnapping from Sally?”
“Yeah. I did.” Jason didn’t mention the fact that he was the one that
got to the scene of the accident and sent her to the hospital.
However, at this time, there was suddenly a flash of inspiration in her mind. She listened to Jason’s voice and
remembered the call that she had picked up on that day.
It didn’t sound like Conrad’s voice… It sounded more like Jason’s.
Was she misremembering things?
“Did you give me a call that day?” She couldn’t help but ask.
Jason was stunned, his eyes looking at the Maybach on the opposite side of the road. A third of the window had
been rolled down, just enough for him to see her clean face.
“No.”

much into it.
Since she could get into a state of emotional turmoil with the slightest disturbance, she could imagine herself
having auditory hallucinations if she were to think too much.
“If there’s nothing else, I’m going to hang up.” She was worried that if Conrad came back, he would get angry
again if he knew she was speaking with Jason.
Jason gave it a thought and quickly asked, “I have something that I
need to speak with Ms. Reid about, but I can’t reach her.”
“Eileen left the country for treatment and training. She only has half–a- day’s worth of rest in a week, and she can
only use her phone during that time.”
“How long has she been gone?”
“Less than two days,” Fia said. She gave it a thought and said, “If there’s something urgent, I can give her personal
assistant’s number to you.”
“It’s fine. It’s nothing important,” Jason said as he saw Conrad leaving the pharmacy. “I have something else to
attend to. Bye.”
“Alright, bye.”
After Jason hung up the call, he looked at Conrad walking toward and getting into the car. He only started his car
when he saw them leave.
Fia held her phone, and the thought about Jason couldn’t leave her
mind.
She turned around and looked at Conrad and said, “Did Evans give me a call on the day that I was kidnapped?”
Conrad glanced at her. Even when she couldn’t see, he was feeling an instance of nervousness seeing her stare at
him like that.
He calmed himself down as he held his steering wheel tightly.
“I don’t think so. Why?”
Fia shook her head. “It’s nothing. I think it’s just that I’m being a bit jumpy lately and I’m misremembering things.”
Conrad gulped. While he felt ashamed, he had already lied about it, so he was going to let it be.
“What did you buy just now?”
She saw him holding something in his hand when he came in and threw it into the back seat.
“I’ll tell you when we’re home.”
“Sure.”
When they were back home, Mrs. Whitley came out after she heard

“Mr. and Madam Maxwell, dinner is almost ready. You should go and wash up first.”
“Okay.” Conrad picked up Fia from the car, the goods he bought from the pharmacy in his hand.
Once they were in their master bedroom, he let her down in the
bathroom.
Fia was somewhat awkward. “I’m already very familiar with the master bedroom. I can get to the toilet myself.”
“It’s faster this way. We can have dinner after we’re done testing.”
“Done testing what?” she asked with confusion on her face.
Conrad couldn’t wait anymore as he held her skirt up and wanted to help her pull her pants down.
Fia speechlessly grabbed his hands to stop him. “What are you doing?”
“I bought a pregnancy test kit. You felt nauseated in the afternoon, didn’t you? Maybe you’re pregnant.”
Fia didn’t know what to say. He had never shown such passion before and after she was pregnant the first time.
He was only twenty–nine years old. He wasn’t even thirty yet. Did he really want a kid that much?
She didn’t know if she should be happy or saddened about this… To feel sad for that lost child.
“Fia, I just want to confirm it. That’s all. I’m not thinking of anything else,” Conrad explained, worried that his
actions would make her
misread his intentions.
