Chapter 1188
At first, he thought he was just not someone romantic. However, when he saw Sia, he could feel something was
wrong with him.
Her voice was so seductive, and she could easily draw his attention.
And that was why he couldn’t let it be. Not even his mother’s brainwashing was enough.
Annie wasn’t someone he wanted.
No matter how beneficial it would be for Maxwell Corporation and Parker Group, he wouldn’t budge.
But… Who was the one that he wanted?
A figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
That woman.
It was as if she was born rebellious, and she kept on testing his ever-frozen heart.
Everything about her could make him come alive.
Why was that?
Conrad couldn’t understand no matter how he reasoned with himself.

“Conrad!” Annie called out nervously.
However, Conrad simply turned around and left as if he didn’t hear anything.
All Annie could do was simply watch things unfold as her face turned as white as a sheet.
She never thought that she would have no place in Conrad’s heart at all.
And all it took was one Sia.
Tears instantly filled her eyes.
Annie was suddenly full of hate toward Sia,
All she wanted was to stay by Conrad’s side. Why couldn’t this little wish of hers be fulfilled?
As soon as Conrad left, he wanted to follow Fia. But Fia had already left a long time ago.
All he could do was return to the streets alone.
He couldn’t help but hear his own heart thumping when he recalled how Fia looked, and what her voice was like.
“Uncle.”
Conrad had just wanted to go up the stairs when someone called out to him.
He turned around and saw it was Irene.
Irene simply looked at Conrad with her large eyes.
While she knew her mother didn’t want them to get too close to him, for some reason, Irene wanted to get close to
him every time she saw the man.
“Can you come play with me?”
Irene held Conrad’s hand.
Just as the two of them were going to come in contact, Conrad suddenly felt his heart beating faster.
Irene was affecting him greatly.
Conrad couldn’t help but pick her up.
“Irene… Why didn’t your mother keep an eye on you and let you come out and play alone?”
Irene giggled.
“I slipped out secretly. It’s so boring being locked up at home every day.
“Come play with me, okay?”
Irene threw her arms around Conrad’s neck and hung from him.
Conrad didn’t like kids, but when he was talking with Irene, he was somehow feeling quite excited.
In the end, Conrad held Irene tightly.

Her face seemed to let Conrad see a familiar face.
But when he looked at her again, that feeling had disappeared.
“I’ll play with you.”
Conrad couldn’t control himself and said that.
“Mommy’s out doing something, and my brother is still at home. Maybe I’ll ask him out to play with us too.”
As soon as Irene said that Conrad agreed to it without hesitation.
After a short while, Adrian came out too.
As they had fun, they eventually reached Conrad’s home.
Adrian looked around curiously.
Unlike their home, Conrad’s home smelled of something sweet.
“Uncle, the scent on you smells nice.”
Irene had been hanging on Conrad like a monkey and would sometimes say something out loud.
Conrad tickled her nose with his finger.
“There’s no scent.”
Irene shook her head.
“There is!”
