Chapter 357
“What are you talking about?!” Eileen glared at him with angry eyes as she held Fia’s hand tightly. “Don’t listen to
him. He’s just crazy.”
Fia suddenly realized something as she frowned.
The entire Gryphon was talking about the matter between her, Esme, and Conrad. If a public figure like Eileen got
too close to her, they would write things about her.
“Eileen, don’t go to the court today. I’ll tell you about it after this.”
“But I can’t let you go alone!”
“I’ll be there!” Victor said with a maddening expression. “My cousin will be there too!”
Fia persuaded Eileen to stay at home and wait for her. She then looked at Victor coldly, “Come on, then.. We’ll go
together.”
Victor got some keys from his pocket. Fia saw that the key to Eileen’s apartment was there too, and so she suddenly

Victor glared at her angrily.
Fia tossed Eileen’s key back to her while tossing the car key to Victor.
“Keep the key. Change your keypad’s password too.”
“Sure!” Eileen grabbed the key and then gave Victor a cold, provoking look.
“Bye, boss!”
Victor held the key tightly and left. He quietly swore that he’d be a dog if he ever came back for her again.
It’s just a woman! He shouldn’t have treated her that special!
After they were out of the apartment building, Fia looked at Victor. “If you’ve chosen Sapphire, then you should let
go of Eileen.”
Victor smiled. “But my cousin married you, so why would he want his childhood love once again?”
Fia felt like her heart was stabbed as her eyes became red.
Victor knew what to say to provoke her.
“Fia, before you want to lecture me, think about yourself. You can’t keep your husband and you can’t protect your
child. You’re a waste of space! What right do you have to lecture me?”
Fia gritted her teeth as she stared at Victor as if she was looking at Conrad.
Were all the men from the Maxwell Household that selfish and heartless?
“I’m curious if my cousin will find ways to save Ms. Manning for old time’s sake,” Victor jeered and then walked
away with his fingers coiled around the car key.
Fia stood there trying to adjust her mood and then walked out with a tired mind.
She was really afraid that Conrad would free her for old time’s sake. He could find a way if he wanted to.
“Fia.”
Fia raised her head when she saw a limited edition gray Maybach parked by the roadside. Conrad was standing next
to the car with a cigarette in his hand.
“What are you here for?“.
Her heart skipped a beat. Was he here for her help?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe started trembling when she thought of that possibility.
“I’m here to take you to the court.” Conrad extinguished his cigarette and then threw it into a bin next to the
roadside. He walked over to the other side and opened the door to the passenger’s seat.
Fia stood there, unmoving. Her hands turned into fists,
“You can forget about it. After committing so many crimes, she must be punished!”
Conrad was stunned as pain appeared in his amber eyes.
“You misunderstand me. I don’t have any plans to help her.” He quickly stepped forward and held Fia’s hands.
“Believe me, alright? Believe me this time.”
Fia gulped. She couldn’t believe it. He loved her so much.
But when she looked into his sincere eyes, she couldn’t speak.
Conrad waited for a moment, but when he saw her still standing there without saying a word, he then
said, “Alright, let’s go to the court first. You’ll know my determination then.”
She looked at a café nearby and said, “I haven’t had anything to eat yet.”
“Wait for me here. I’ll get you something.”
When Conrad came back with breakfast in hand, Fia already gotten into a Grabcar and left.
