Chapter 1174
“I’m unreasonable?” Fia’s mood became foul again.
Still, she could not bring herself to yell at Adrian. So, she held her anger in, worsening her mood to the point that
her eyes were red with tears.
“Mommy, please don’t cry ” Adrian stood on his toes to try to wipe his mother’s tears away with his hands.
Seeing this, Fia stifled a laugh and said, “Oh, silly boy. How could Mommy be angry with you? Mommy’s not crying.
You and Irene are Mommy’s treasure.”
She embraced her children with a smile and said, “You two are so important to me. You’re even more important
than my life!”
Still, she could not accept that her children were beginning to get attached to Conrad. Even though they didn’t
really spend much time together, these kids still could not help liking him.
“Sir, what’s wrong?” Charles asked in a worried tone as they were waiting at the traffic light.
Conrad furrowed his brows and said, “That woman… She said something very peculiar.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What did she say?” Charles was very curious. Just what was the deal about this woman? What made his boss so
attracted to her?
Conrad said, “She yelled at me on the phone, screaming that Adrian and Irene are her children. But it’s weird, don’t
you think? I’m no idiot. I know very well they’re her children. So, why did she say that?”
After pondering for a moment, Charles said, “Maybe she and her husband’s marriage aren’t working so well. So,
she’s afraid of her children being taken away from her.”
“So, she thought I was sent by her husband?” Conrad had an urge to explain himself. “I need to talk to her, to clear
her doubt.”
Charles looked at his boss puzzledly. “But sir, aren’t we heading back to the office?”
“Send me to Aurora Residences!”
Although he did not understand his boss’s reasoning, Charles conceded and did not argue against his decision. So,
he obediently took a U-turn and drove straight to Aurora Residences.
When they arrived at home, Fia quickly took out the medicine Lucifer had prepared for Irene and applied it on her
wound. With this medicine, Irene’s wound would heal much faster.
“Mommy, we don’t really need to use these. These medicines are really hard to come by, you know?” Irene said,
“Daddy said we should only use them when we got really, really hurt.”
“It’s fine.”
Fia was speechless. She tried to copy the formula for this medicine for two years but she was nowhere near
completing it. So, right now, they could only acquire it from Lucifer himself. Still, even Lucifer himself had limited
stocks because, according to him, the ingredients were really rare.
“But what if you got hurt, Mommy?” Adrian asked in a timid tone.
“My work isn’t that dangerous anymore. So, I won’t get hurt.” Fia petted Adrian’s head and said, “I’m not mad at
you, Adrian. I know how much you love your sister so you didn’t mean her any harm.”
Milo suddenly showed up from under the sofa and barked at them mischievously before lying next to
Irene
Petting Milo with her tiny foot, Irene said, “Milo really likes to sleep”
“He sleeps practically most of the day” Adrian said womedly, “Maybe he’s not feeling well?”
Fia comforted her son. “The puppy is still young. He needs a lot of sleep so he can grow bigger.” Then, she recalled

Daddy was even worried that you might end up stupid if you kept on sleeping, and pulled all kinds of tricks to wake
you up. Yet, after waking up, you two would sleep again after half an hour
Fia was grateful that Lucifer genuinely cared and doted on her children.
“I miss Daddy,” Adrian and Irene said in unison.
Surprised, Fia asked, “Let’s go back to the island to meet him after I’m done with my work here, okay?”
Lucifer was the leader of their organization and it was difficult even for her to meet him in the last five years. Yet,
her children could see him anytime they wanted.
Perhaps, Lucifer really loved and treated them as his own.
“Mommy, why don’t Irene’s and my eyes look like Daddys?” Adrian asked, “Daddy’s blue eyes are so beautiful. But
Irene and I don’t have eyes like those.”
Fía rubbed Adrian’s head and said, “Because I don’t have blue eyes, and you two inherited my traits.”
“But Adrian’s eyes are amber. Like that uncle!” Irene called out her mother right away.
In that instance, Fia did not know what to say to her children.
