Chapter 1216
Conrad raised his head and looked at the door when he heard someone knock.
“I’ll go open the door!” Tyler said as he got up.
“No, let me,” Conrad said nervously as if he was expecting something.
Tyler looked at him strangely. “Why are you suddenly so interested in opening the door of your apartment?”
Conrad reached the door with his cane and took a deep breath.
When he opened the door, his eyes lay upon the woman in front of him, his amber eyes narrowed.
“Good afternoon, Conrad.” Fia flipped her long hair, the smile she was wearing was cold yet strangely alluring. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Conrad froze, not knowing what she was up to.
However, his heartbeat had already lost its way.
Suddenly, this woman in front of her made him feel such familiarity.
He had never seen her, but she could make his heart thump so rapidly the first time he saw her.
“Why don’t you let me in and have a seat, Conrad?” Fia’s eyes slightly narrowed, becoming so attractive to him.
Conrad held the cane in his hand tightly. “Are you alright, Ms. Sia?”
“That’s right. I’m feeling so hot!” Fia stood against the door frame, flicked her hair away, and showed him her shoulder.
Her smile was so seductive, yet so heartless.
“Who’s that?” When Tyler saw Conrad frozen at the door, he walked over curiously.
“Out!” Conrad swung the cane at him. “Go to my study and think about the contract’s terms!”
Tyler bent over as he held his stomach. He peeked outside and saw a naked shoulder. He knew he had to leave.
He was someone with a family. He had no interest in someone jumping into his arms. He also had no interest in seeing someone jumping into someone else’s arms.
It was probably Annie again.
“There’s someone else?” Fia was wondering how she could stop. “Continue with your work. I’m going back now.”
The woman turned around and left as she delicately walked away.
Conrad touched his forehead. He could feel the heat inside of his body thanks to her.
What did she mean?
“Is that okay?” Fia asked when she turned to the corner and asked Eileen, who was secretly filming.
“That’s great!” Eileen said as she put her phone back into her pocket as if she had a treasure in her hand. Thanks.”
“Sure,” Fia said. “Stop pestering me from now on, alright?”
“Speaking of which, your beauty is so enthralling. Why don’t you join me in the entertainment industry?” Eileen said. She wanted to use Sia to take down Conrad!
Fia shook her head. “Not interested.”
“How can you be so dispassionate? Were you hurt before this? My childhood friend… She suffered a lot, but she still kept her optimism and held her head up all the way. She would smile, and she would also smile at someone else. Her smile was so sweet.”
Fia stopped and turned around, looking at Eileen. “Can I not smile?”
Eileen had no words.
“Life is already tiring. Why should I show my smiles to someone that’s unrelated to me?” Fia said with arrogance. “Who the hell do they think they are?”
Eileen shook her head. “That’s not what I meant. What I’m trying to say is, you can smile for the people who love you, not for simply anyone.”
Fia then said, “I don’t have anyone else other than my children.”
“I can tell that you treat your children very well. You’re especially gentle around them. That deep motherly love is very touching,” Eileen said. She suddenly paused and asked, “You love your children a lot, don’t you?”
Fia rolled her eyes. “Naturally!”
“Can… Can I pay you a visit sometimes? I like your children.”
Fia wanted to refuse, but Eileen said, “I can’t have children anymore, so I really like them.”
Her words were like knives, cutting into Fia’s bleeding heart.
After she had an abortion for Victor, it was very difficult for her to be pregnant again after that.
