Chapter 601
Annie agreed, “Yeah, usually it’s very noisy here because there is always a crowd.”
It felt like there was someone important visiting the place, making it difficult for everyone to chat their hearts away.
The two girls curiously walked into the canteen. As they walked past numerous inquisitive and scared eyes, they
finally saw the couple sitting by the window near the counter.
The stunningly good-looking couple were chatting as they took their meals.
The man who was usually as cold as an iceberg was now smiling warmly, as though he was baptized by rays of
sunshine.
“Is… Is that Mr. Maxwell?” Annie asked hesitantly.
Britney was also shocked to see this. It was as though she had seen a ghost!
She could not believe what she saw. Yet, she could not deny the reality that was happening right before her eyes.
She had never seen Conrad smile so warmly when they were together a few years ago. After her “death”, Conrad
had treated Fia even better! Just what on earth happened?!
No, she could not accept this! Conrad was hers! Hers! He was always hers!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBritney wanted to rush forward to confront them. Yet, she was able to keep her cool to stop herself. She took in a
few breaths.
No worries. She still had a chance. On the night after, she still had a chance to get close to Conrad at that business
party!
“Huh?” Annie looked at Britney who walked away, “Britney!”
Britney stepped away quickly, doing her best to not let jealousy ruin her cool.
Annie, on the other hand, was not as sly and calculating as Britney. She approached that perfect man who was
talking to his wife. “Good day, Mr. Maxwell.”
Conrad took a cold glance at Annie before putting down his chopsticks. He thought he could still have a few more
bites, but seeing this woman, he had completely lost his appetite.
Fia bit her chopsticks and curiously looked at Annie. “Miss Parker, state your business.”
Annie beamed up a smile at Fia, “Fia, I feel so relieved seeing you healthy and well.”
Fia maintained her smile as she watched Annie’s double-faced acting.
“If you have the time, would you visit Uncle Conall with me?”
Chapter 601
Fia lowered her gaze as she heard this. That man… He was still lying in the hospital after saving her life.
“I’ll visit him when I find the time.”
“Oh, really? I’ll break the good news to Uncle Conall later. He’ll definitely be happy! He might even wake up from his
coma after hearing it!”
“Conrad, I’m stuffed.” Fia put down her chopsticks and took Conrad’s hand.
“Let’s head back to the office then.” Conrad helped her up from her seat.
Fia stood up and faced Annie. “Would you mind? You’re in our way.”
“Oh, pardon me.” Annie was stunned when she saw Conrad’s hands. She quickly bowed her head and moved away.
How could there be such a perfect man? Not only did he have a great, ambitious career, his hands were so
gorgeous too!
As the married couple left the canteen, many employees stood up and approached Annie, asking just what kind of
relationship she had with Mrs. Maxwell.
A female employee worked up her courage and asked, “Could it be that… you’re Mrs.
Maxwell’s little sister?”
A smile curved up on Annie’s face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen, gossip stirred up again.
“I never knew that Mrs. Maxwell has a sister. Word has it that she’s the only child in the
family.”
“I heard that she did not even know who her father was.”
“Then, maybe her mother was her father’s mistress… Her mom’s a homewrecker?!”
“And her mom was abandoned, I presume?”
“Oh, dear. How pitiful.”
The employees began to gossip about how Fia was fatherless, and that she was a low-born. Annie just sat there and
listened to their gossip, not bothered to stop them from talking. In fact, she quite enjoyed listening to what they
said.
It would not matter if Conall had successfully convinced Fia to return home as a Parker. To the outsiders, Fia was just
a bastard child. She would be a laughingstock no matter where she went.
If it were not for Conrad, Fia was nothing but trash to her! Just you wait, Fia Lawson! When she got her kicked out of
the Maxwell family, she would make sure that she had nothing to live
