Chapter 550
“My child, that’s because you don’t know her completely. She’s just worried that you wouldn’t accept me if she had
just dropped the truth. about your birth on you all of a sudden.”
Conall looked at Fia earnestly and continued on, “When she was
dying, she made a phone call to your uncles. She asked them to tell you about me after she’s gone.”.
“Liar!” A c*ack seemed to have appeared on Fia’s cold and stern face.
Conall said sadly, “I know it’s difficult to believe this. Much has happened since then. Here’s a letter from your
mother. She left it with your Uncle Wallace before she died.”
Conall took out a letter from his jacket. “Your Uncle Wallace did not give it to you the first chance he got because he
wanted you to spend
some time to process your mother’s passing. Now that I’ve come to find you, Wallace decided to hand it to me
instead.”
“Liar!” Fia repeated her rejection again. This time, however, her resolute determination to reject this man was
slowly wavering.
Before her mom passed, she did carefully ask her if she wanted to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtknow who her father was. The few times Fia saw her uncles after her
mom passed, they also did try to enquire if she wanted to find out her father’s identity.
Conall looked into Fia’s eyes. “Sorry… You can’t see. Perhaps, I will read it for you?”
“Don’t you try to trick me! I will never call you my father!” Fia responded sternly, “I am here to tell you off. To tell
you, loud and clear, that I want no dealings with you! And if you keep causing trouble to Conrad, l’il hate you
forever!”
Hate. Upon hearing this word, Conall felt a pinch of hurt in his heart.
“Fia, I mean you no harm.”
“If you really do mean that, then don’t disrupt our lives!”
Fia stood up and extended her hand to the man. “And give me that letter!”
Even though her mother’s letter might contain information that she did not wish to know, it was still supposed to be
hers. It should not fall into the hands of a man who had disappointed her mother her whole life!
Conall gently put the letter into her hand. “I’ll see you home.”
“No need!”
By the time Fia stood up, Mrs. Whitley had already rushed toward her and carefully grabbed her arm and shoulder.
As he followed his daughter out of the cafe, Conall said, “Fia, I will always wait for you. I’ll wait for you to come
home. If there’s anything you need, please give me a call and… Watch out!”
As Fia was impatiently listening to Conall’s warm and gentle words, his loud, worried words jerked wildly in her
heart. In the next instance, she felt a push knocking her away.
“Mrs. Maxwell!” Mrs. Whitley also fell down due to Conall’s push.
Fia fell down and felt great pain on the back of her head. The pain. took her out for a few seconds; her head ached
as if it was going to explode.
Mrs. Whitley, who only cared about Fia, quickly rushed forward to help her up. Then, she looked around. Plenty of
people had already started to crowd around them.
“It’s so frightening!”
“If it weren’t for that man, these ladies would have been knocked
over!”
“That biker is such a jerk! He did not even bother to brake!”
“And he fled as quickly as a rabbit too! What a piece of sh*t!”
Mrs. Whitley quickly looked around, and she saw him, Conall, lying on the ground ten meters away from them.
“Mr. Parker!”
Fia faintly recalled a loud vroom from a motorbike and a loud thud on the ground. She instinctively asked, “What
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmabout him?”
Mrs. Whitley finally understood just how fatally dangerous of a situation they were in earlier.
Conall pushed them away from the motorbike’s way. However, this also put him right in its tracks.
“He…” Mrs. Whitley could not bring herself to tell the poor woman what happened. So, she quickly dialled Conrad’s
number.
Joy wept loudly in front of the surgery room as Annie did her best to
soothe her.
“Dreadful! How dreadful!”
After wailing a few times like a banshee, Joy fiercely locked her eyes onto Fia and tottered toward her.
“Just how much more do you want to ruin our family? Why wasn’t it you who was knocked by that bike!!”
Fia bit her mouth as she clenched her fists. She did not know what to feel at this moment.
Mrs. Whitley shielded Fia behind her, “She did not want this to happen
to anyone either…”
It was then, loud, anxious footsteps could be heard nearby. Fia recognized them.
She faced toward where they came from, with this overwhelming gloom clouding over her mind.
“Conrad…”
Conrad rushed forward and took her from Mrs. Whitley’s hands. He carefully examined her up and down. “Are you
alright?”
Fia shook her head as she entered his embrace. “I am fine… He… I did
not… I would never need him to do that for me… Why… Why now….?”
