Chapter 958
“I’m a little tired. I want to go back.” Fia spoke faintly.
Conrad said immediately, “Alright, we will go home now.”
He supported Fia a couple of steps before she asked, “How is her mother?”
Beth was her biological aunt, but she had no desire to call her that at the moment.
The tiny bit of love they had between them was entirely gone.
“Tiger’s timely rescue helped her keep her life, but she is still unconscious. The doctor said that she should wake up
tomorrow,” Conrad said.
Fia’s gaze lowered. Thinking of how he was in a rush when he just came by, she thought that he came to see her
the moment he got out of the car.
She never expected him to understand so much and to even know Beth’s situation.
Conrad clearly felt that Fia’s emotions weren’t quite right, and pulled her to a stop.

Fia nodded. “I got it.”
“Are you suspecting that I went to ask about your aunt’s situation because of Esme?” Conrad asked.
“She is not my aunt. She hasn’t been for a long time now.” Fia’s tone became a little sharp. ” When my mother fell
sick, I no longer had any relationship with them.”
Forget the fact that they weren’t concerned about her mother. They had even kicked her mother when she was
down, and that was what was most fatal.
“Before my mother died, she was worried about how I would live alone.” Fia raised her gaze to look at Conrad. “In
the past, I thought that I would continue braving on no matter what happens. However, I was not as strong as I
thought and along the way, I encountered tool many things, got hurt too many times, and my attitude has changed
as well.”
Conrad did not know why she would say that and could only keep quiet and listen on.
Fia continued, “You do not know this, but when my mom and grandma died one after another, I also wanted to
leave with them. However, the child in my tummy held me back.”
“Fia…” Conrad’s heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. Besides holding her wrist tightly, he did not know what to
do.
He knew that she was very repulsed by him at the moment and did not dare to be too intimate.
Fia gave a bitter smile. “What about you? You actually suspected that it wasn’t your child? You suspected Evans and
1?”
Conrad frowned. Back then when Esme said those words, in addition with the picture she had put in his car to make
him jealous and suspicious, he had lost the ability to differentiate the truth. That’s why he went to the hospital and
said those harsh words.
“Now that I have two children again, are you still suspicious?” Fia smiled sarcastically, her gaze full of sorrow as she
looked at Conrad.
“I’m not. That day was just a moment of anger,” Conrad explained urgently.
“A moment of anger? Many days have passed. You never even explained to me once.” Fia tilted her head and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlooked at him. “There has been a thorn in your heart all this while which you
cannot let go.”
Conrad frowned. “I admit that I can’t quite stand Jason as a person. He has other intentions toward you!”
“Then it means that you are still suspicious?” Fia tried to pry her wrist away from his hand, saying, “Then let’s go to
the hospital to get a paternity test.”
Conrad shook his head. “I’m not suspicious. I know that when the children were conceived, you did not meet up
with him.”
“What if we met up without you knowing?” The corner of Fia’s lips curled up into a sarcastic yet heartbreaking
smile. “Previously, didn’t I also hide the matter about the design drafts?”
Conrad’s emotions were provoked. “Can you stop bringing it up? I’ve already let things slide. What else do you
want?”
“You’re wrong.” Fia looked in a different direction. “You have just momentarily suppressed it. The next time
someone else instigates or throws out some evidence, you’ll start to be suspicious of me again.
She was really disgusted by this tactic that had been used again and again and was really fed up with it.
Thinking of how Esme was always acting so gleefully, she really wanted to rip off that stupid, fake face of hers.
“Where are you going?” Conrad saw her turn around and leave. He pulled her back. She avoided him and said
coldly, “I want to ask her what exactly she wants!
