Chapter 501
“Oh, by the way, there’s this restaurant owner I know. She has this daughter, you see, about the same age as you, about as adorable as you. She fell for my husband at first sight, tried to make him drunk so she could sleep with him. Can you guess what happened to her?”
“What happened to her?” Annie was curious. If she was able to make Conrad drunk, the girl must have succeeded!
“She was unsuccessful. In the end, she got found out and sent to jail.”
Annie was stunned. “How could that be possible?”
She glowered at Fia. There was no way this blind b*tch was adored by the man. No matter how good looking she was, she was still as blind as a bat! There was simply no way a woman like her could win against that man’s first love!
Even a man like her dad, even if he was just the police, he still had to give in and divorce her mother to marry Barbara Thomas back then!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA man like Conrad Maxwell would have even more temptation in his life. If there was a woman he really wanted, he would do anything to get her.
Perhaps, that “first, true love” of his was not his true love after all.
Having thought this, Annie faked a smile again.“Nice story, cousin. But you were embroiled in all that mess too. Were you not saddened by what happened?”
Annie continued on as though she was curious about what happened to them. “Did you and Mr. Maxwell marry because of love? Or was it because of other reasons?”
Fia raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, but she did not respond. She wanted to see where Annie was going with this
“I’m new in the company. But I’ve heard a lot of rumors about you. They say you’re a greedy, selfish gold digger You’d do anything in and out of the book to get what you want, and that was exactly what you did to make Mr. Maxwell marry you. Were they right about that, dear cousin?”
Annie called her “cousin” warmly, as though they grew up together and had always been close to one another
Fia sniggered before correcting her, Tm sorry. But I’m no cousin of yours If the others in the company have caught wind of this, they’d think we actually have any blood ties.”
“But we are related! Haven’t you ever thought about coming home? To beca Parker? Uncle even clooking for you. It’s your birthright! We are one of the most esteemed families in Lumenpolis! The other girls would do anything to be a Parker!
Annie threw a jibe at Fia. “You should really thank the heavens for having such a golden opportunity.”
“Oh, dear. If people who don’t know about them heard your words, they’d think you were from a royal family!”
“Regardless, it would not have mattered if your uncle was a king, emperor of a foreign land, or the president of sbig o‘
country. I am not interested,” Fia replied with a warm smile. ” There is an old saying in the East. ‘When a daughter is married off, she is akin to a bowl of water that is poured out“.”
Fia continued on, “I am now married to my husband. My life now orbits around my husband’s. It does not matter who is or was my relatives. I don’t want them in my life.”
Annie paused momentarily before responding, “My uncle has another daughter. She is about two months younger than you. If you don’t chome, everything under Uncle’s nwould become hers!”
“So?” Fia’s face turned cold. “I don’t want them. They’re all hers.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis old geezer left her mother when she was pregnant, and had married that other woman. They even had another child, just mere months apart! This made her feel disgusted at Conall Parker.
That heartless man! She would never call him her father, ever!
“Uncle’s company, Parker Group, is wealthier and more powerful than Maxwell Corporation. He has no son. You and Felicity are all he has. If you chnow…”
“I am repulsed, Annie.” Fia interrupted Annie coldly, “Quit acting, will you? You’re not doing this for my own good. You’re just trying to find a chance to get to my husband. You think I don’t know that?”
“…” Annie’s hands were shaking in anger. How could this blind b* tch talk to her like that? A barbaric slut was a barbaric slut after all. She knew nothing about etiquette and good manners.
“Tiger!” Fia called out to her bodyguard, She did, not want to be
In the sroom with this Parker girl anymore.
It was quite clear what this blatant girl had in mind. She did not even try to hide it.
Tiger quickly approached them, “What’s wrong, Madam?”
“Give Conrad a call. I’m feeling sick right now.”
