Chapter 548
Annie tried her best to suppress the uneasiness that was boiling in her heart. This man was so cold and cruel.
When she thought about how gentle and warm he was when he looked after Fia, and compared that to how he
treated her, Annie
could not help but to feel an intense dread.
As she tried to calm down, Annie said, “I am here to apologize on behalf of my uncle.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe put on a hurt look.
“My uncle has been troubling Maxwell Corporation because Fia does not want to come home. It was unfair of him to
do that to you. But, Mr. Maxwell! If you could convince Fia to come home, to call my uncle her dad, he would not
cause any trouble any more.”
Conrad looked at Annie as though he was looking at a clown. “So, you think I’m a man who would sell off his wife for
profit?”
“No, no!” Annie waved her hand nervously. “I just don’t want you to endure so many unnecessary problems that
could be easily avoided.
“If… If Fia knew, she would also not want to cause you this much
trouble.”
Conrad smirked. “Go back and tell that old geezer. Tell him if he wants to play, I’m all game. Just give it his all.”
He was not one who would run away from a challenge!
Fia had finally calmed down and recovered. If there was anything that
was going to threaten her physical and m*ntal health, he would take them on and drive them all out of her life!
“Mr. Maxwell…”
Not giving Annié a chance to say more, Conrad walked into his personal elevator and rode back up to his office.

“Annie, don’t fret over it. You know, Fia’s a good girl. I’m sure she’ll understand if we tell her.”
“Yeah! Let’s find her and talk to her!”
Then, Annie lowered her shoulders, letting out a defeated sigh. “But the Maxwell residence is brimming with
security right now. There is no way for us outsiders to get to her.”
“Don’t you have her phone number?”
“No.”
“Well, I do.” Britney took out her phone. “Here, I’ll send it to you.”
