Chapter 397
They’re family… They had the same blood. They’re an extension of their parents.
But now…
Everything changed when she married Conrad.
“Fia.”
The man’s voice hummed in her ears as she bit her lips.
Conrad held her and lowered his head. Their foreheads met.
“I’m your family. You’re not alone.”
Fia’s eyes trembled and the tears fell.
Conrad wiped her tears away and picked her up, then walked out of the cemetery as all of them looked.
Just as they were almost in the car, someone called out from behind. “Fia! Wait!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFia’s uncles, Wallace, Douglas, and Hector Lawson, called out to her.
She patted Conrad’s arm and said, “Let me down.”
Conrad put her down and then glared at Fia’s uncles warily.”
The three of them looked at Conrad. Their expressions turned sour when they thought about Esme.
All of them believed that he was the bringer of misfortune!
“Fia, there’s something we want to say to you.” Wallace glanced at Conrad. “Can we go somewhere else?”
Fia smiled, but it was insincere. “No thanks. I can’t and I need to depend on my husband now.”
She held Conrad’s arm tightly and opened her eyes wide.
Only then did they realize that something was wrong with her eyes.
“What happened to your eyes?!” The three of them asked together.
Before Fia could even speak, Conrad snorted coldly. “You know what happened on the day of Esme’s escape. When
Fia was in the hospital, none of you came and visited her! There’s no point in asking, is there?!”
Instantly, the three of them froze as they knew they were no longer on the moral high ground.
“Uncles. I know that you think that I’m too brutal, forcing Esme into a corner and causing her death. I won’t offer
any explanation. I’m blind. Consider this retribution. Just let me go and don’t try to say anything to me.”
Family was always right… Family would always love you… She didn’t want to hear a word of it!
After all of this, she finally understood. Her only real family was her grandma and her mom, and they were both
dead. She no longer had any family.
What Conrad said just now felt like a knife stabbing into her heart.
Her uncles didn’t visit her this time. They didn’t visit her during her previous admissions too.
She wouldn’t blame them. It was only human.
When she and her mother went home, her uncles’ wives always treated her as a burden.
She didn’t want to throw her dignity away and lick their boots.
“Fia, I know that you blame us for not caring about you after your mother’s death. But…”

Fia held her hands tightly. “If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving.”
“Another thing!” Douglas, the rash one. “Don’t you want to know who your father is?”
Fia frowned. “No.”
“Your father is a very powerful man., Now that you’re alone, it would be good if he could take you back!”
“Uncle, he wasn’t here when my mother and I needed him the most. What do I need him for?”
Fia didn’t want to continue talking with her three uncles about any unnecessary topics.
She didn’t like how they wanted to suppress her thoughts and imprint theirs on her. She was no puppet, but a
human with her own thoughts!
Conrad once again picked her up by the waist and put her into the passenger seat. He closed the door, separating
her from the disruption outside.
He then looked at the Lawsons coldly.
“I hope that you won’t talk about anything that Fia doesn’t care about!”
No matter how powerful Fia’s father was, he wouldn’t give him any chances!
An animal that ignored Fia for more than twenty years… had no right to be her father!
