Chapter 856
“I love you, Conrad. I have adored you so, so much from the first time I saw you. No one has ever given me the
same feeling.” Esme carefully pulled Conrad’s sleeve. “Can you feel it?”
Conrad looked at the woman in front of him coldly. She wore Britney’s face, saying words that Britney would never
say.
“The man that Britney Thomas loves is Peter Hall. Who are you?”
“I’m the woman that loves you,” Esme said with adoration in her eyes. “The woman that loves only you.’

Conrad could feel that the drug inside the room was very strong. He could already feel his blood pumping in a short
amount of time. He couldn’t stay here any longer.
“Don’t!” Esme grabbed Conrad’s waist. “Just once! Once is enough! I won’t disturb your marriage! I just wish that
you’ll remember me when you’re lonely or upset…”

This was her last and only chance!
With his personality, as soon as she slept with him, he wouldn’t ignore her anymore.
“Let me go!”
“I won’t! Conrad, this is our final chance! Please forget about our past. Let’s restart, okay? I beg you…”
Conrad could feel his strength slowly leaving him. It was obvious that she had already taken the antidote since it
was only effective toward him.
Seeing that she had such high hopes of her plan working, it was the chance for him to get some truth out of her.
“Do you really love me?”
“The stars above can be my witness,” Esme said affectionately.
Conrad pulled her hand away in disgust and brutally said, “I’m not a fool to be toyed around by someone else!”
“I’m not toying with you…”
“Tell me who you are!” He looked at Esme icily, who had tears rolling down her face. “You’re not Britney Thomas,
aren’t you?”
Esme looked at him with tears in her eyes. “Who do you want me to be?”
She then carefully said, “It doesn’t matter who I am. I’m the woman that loves you the most. Even when faced with
death, even if there’s only one sliver of a chance, I can’t lose the chance to love you…”
“Esme Manning,” Conrad said that name coldly. “Is that you?”
Esme looked at Conrad’s expression. “What if I am? What will you do?”
Conrad remembered that Fla was pregnant with twins, and she had to be kept away from
provocations such as this.
All he wanted was to solve all the issues ahead as soon as possible.
“Who is Peter Hall?”
“Why are you asking about him?” Esme said pitifully. “It’s so rare for us to be able to have time together alone.
Please don’t talk about him, alright?”
“Didn’t you say you love me? Why won’t you answer any of my questions? What kind of love is that?” Conrad said

is black, but I didn’t expose you.”
Esme was shocked. “Her mole is red?”
“Ha!” Conrad smiled icily. “You have no fear of death at all, do you? Making such a huge mistake when disguising as
someone else.”
Esme shook her head. “No, I’ve asked Barbara about this. She said that the mole is black! How can it be red?
Conrad, are you lying to me? I told you that I love you! I love you so much that I’m not afraid of death! Why are you
still hurting me when we’ve already reached this stage?” “Choose one. Either you tell me who you are, or who Peter
Hall is,” Conrad said icily.
Esme hesitated for a few seconds and then said, “Peter is Peter. There’s nothing wrong with his identity.”
“Who’s supporting him from the shadows?” Conrad asked.
Esme said, “I don’t know the details, but he is not only working on research that’s meant for civilian use. He’ll also
work on some deals that he must keep hidden. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have that much money…”
A glint of light flashed inside Conrad’s eyes and he quietly asked, “What kind of deals?” “That…” Esme suddenly
stopped what she was going to say. “Conrad, you’re trying to get information out of me?”
“And that’s the amount of love you have for me?” Conrad smiled with a sneer. He turned around to leave.
