Chapter 557
Conrad placed an arm over her shoulders. “He will,”
“What did the doctor say? How bad is it?”
Internal bleeding.”
Fia could feel her heart sink. She didn’t know what to say as she looked at Conall in the ward.
Conrad stroked her back and said, “Don’t worry. We managed to get him to the hospital in time and the doctors
saved him. He’ll wake up.”
Fia didn’t want to see the person inside anymore. She turned around and walked into Conrad’s
arms.
“Let’s go.”
Just then, the sound of high heels tapping on the floor rapidly approached them.
Fia raised her eyes and saw a young, enthusiastic woman running over.

Like her, she also had long, black hair, and she wore a white dress and a pair of white Mary Janes: She looked white
and clean.
She even smiled at her. She was wondering if this was Britney or Annie.
The woman said, “You’re finally here to see Uncle Conall, Fia!”
‘Ah, she’s Annie.’
Fia got out of Conrad’s arms and stared at Annie.
Annie blinked and said, “Oh, your eyes have recovered? I just saw Mr. Silas just now and overheard him talking with
the lady next to him. I thought it was just a rumor!”
Conrad was holding Fia’s hand and didn’t even give Annie a glance.
Annie wanted to lay her eyes on him, but since Fia’s eyes have recovered, she needed to stop doing that.
She smiled as she stared at Fia. She looked nice and honest.
“If he knew your eyes had healed, he’d be very happy!”
Fia’s lips bent as she said with a veiled smile, “Then, are you happy?”
Annie froze before quickly saying, “I am!”
“When a blind woman is no longer blind, I wonder if she’s someone better now?” Fia said in a nonchalant tone as if
she was talking about the weather with someone else.
“Of… Of course!” Annie tried her best to smile brightly. “You’re quite good already.”
“Am I?” Fla easily pushed Conrad’s hand away and walked toward Annie. “How am I “good”?”
Annie blinked. She almost couldn’t continue the act.
But Conrad was such a fine man, and she was somewhat younger than Fia.
Wasn’t that the kind of woman men like? Young and fresh?
“You’re kind, mature, dutiful, and humble. You’re good no matter how you see it.”
Fia chuckled. “I’m that good?”
“Did the word “mature” not imply that she was old?”
“That’s right!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at how sincere she was, Fia felt it was quite boring. As if she was bullying her.
“If you really think that I’m that good or treat me as your cousin, then stop thinking about what you’re thinking.”
Annie said sadly, “Why do you keep antagonizing me?”
Conrad was getting upset. “Stop wasting time with her.”
He grabbed Fia’s hand and wanted to leave.
Annie couldn’t take how Conrad was treating her and instantly stepped in front of him.
“Mr. Maxwell, are you unhappy with my work?”
Conrad looked at her icily. “Move!”
Just who was she? How could she be that daft?!
“Mr. Maxwell, if there’s something that I didn’t do well, tell me! I’ll change!”
Conrad gritted his teeth. “If you don’t move, you can leave the company!”
Annie was so shocked that she shuddered and moved away unwillingly.
“Mr. Maxwell… Fia… I treat you like family.”
Fia sighed as she felt a headache coming. Annie’s tone made her look like a delicate flower swaying in a storm.
