Chapter 940
Conrad was shocked. “How did you know? Silas let you read the file behind my back?”
Fia simply sneered at him. “You don’t even trust your own people?”
“Then how do you know?” Conrad said before making a guess. “She contacted you without me knowing? And told
you about it?”
“That’s right,” Fia said as hatred flared inside of her. She didn’t want to lie to Conrad.
But if he didn’t want to deal with Esme because of their previous relationship, she would have to be the one that
made the change.
When Conrad remembered Esme’s disgusting behavior, he quickly explained, “I didn’t work with her to get to Peter.
I’ll have Silas hide the folder first.”
“Then what are you planning to do?” Fia asked as she looked at him blankly. “If you don’t use the information to
make a move against Peter, and you’re not making a move against her, then what’s the reason for not making a
move at all?”
Conrad felt helpless, unsure how to explain it to her.
Fia asked, “Is it because you yourself are having doubts?”

She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. “Whatever. As long as you’re not trying to harm the children in my
womb for her.”
“Fia, I…”
“Enough. The more you talk about this the more my mood worsens. I don’t want to lose control of my emotions
again,” Fia said without much energy.
Conrad swallowed the words that he wanted to say. Action spoke louder than words.
“I’ll have Sophia accompany you in the afternoon. I’m going to the company.”
“Sure.” Fia pulled the blanket over her shoulder, wanting to wrap herself tighter.
The weather was slowly getting colder. She was not afraid, however. She could always wrap herself tighter in the
blanket and wear more clothes.
If she wasn’t looking forward to a man’s change, then she wouldn’t feel disappointed.
In the afternoon, Sophia brought over lunch that Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Whitley had Conrad was not in the mood for
lunch so he left early.

Sophia was worried that Fia would be saddened, so she whispered to her, “There’s plenty of work to be done at the
company lately. The boss is going to be very busy.”
“It’s fine,” Fia said as she picked up a fork and began having her lunch with a calm expression, showing no sign of
joy or sorrow.
Sophia looked at her from the side and felt her heart break
After the hypnotism, Fia would always wear the same calm expression after she woke up. While she looked as if she
wasn’t worrying about something, she was lacking vigor and acting

“Madam, don’t hide everything inside. You can always talk to me.
Fia bit the fork and gave Sophia a faint smile.
“I’m worried that if I tell you, you won’t know how to react.”
Sophia smiled awkwardly and paused momentarily before saying, “Well, it’s true that I don’t have much social
experience.”
“It’s fine. You have plenty of time to experience it,” Fia said as she had a few more bites before putting the fork
down.
Sophia washed the utensils.
Fia took out her phone and opened the Family Locator app that she downloaded last night. The “family member”

not toward the company.
She looked at the pointer on the map and made some guesses in her head.
Conrad drove his car into a basement car park of a huge shopping mall. He then took the elevator to where Unus et
Solus Jewelry was at.
“Hello, sir. How can I help you today?”
The young saleswoman stood up straight and gave him a professional smile.
“You can only make one Solus Ring in your entire lifetime. You have a girlfriend?”
“I’m married.”
The saleswoman’s smile became even brighter. “Then, your wife will be very happy to receive a ring from us.”
Conrad nodded. It was a very well-known brand across the globe.
When a purchase was made, the purchasers had to provide some form of identification from both sides. They
would only provide service for the person once in their lifetime. That was why he would choose to make a purchase
from this company.
If other people could afford such a fantasy, then Fia deserved it too.
His attention was drawn to a butterfly diamond ring.
