Chapter 298
After Fia was done eating with Mrs. Taylor’s assistance, the latter cleaned up and sat down, and looked
at Fia.
When her eyes looked into Fia’s numb ones, her heart became soft.
“Say what’s in your mind, Mrs. Taylor.”
“Madam, I won’t give you any advice. It’s just that… I’m feeling terrible, so let me talk to you about something.”
“Yes. I’m listening.” Fia lowered her eyes and tightened her grip.
While Mrs. Taylor wasn’t going to advise her anything, she knew that what she was going to say to her would
become blades that cut open her wounded heart.
“In about a month or so, Master Maxwell is going to be thirty. I have always wished for the two of you to have a
child so that I can raise him or her while I still have some strength left in me.
“You believe me, don’t you?
“I was the one who took care of the master since he was little. He worked hard, but because he didn’t grow up with
his parents‘ love, his personality became flawed.

own perspective.
“Speaking of which, a man like that is not a good candidate for a husband, no matter how rich he is.
“But… Master Maxwell is trying to find a way to open that door of his. He’s still finding a way.” Mrs. Taylor finished
and looked at Fia earnestly, patiently waiting for her response.
However, Fia didn’t know what to say. There were too many thoughts in her mind. She was not feeling
well as well.
“Madam, Master Maxwell finally saw through Ms. Manning’s tricks. This is your chance!” Mrs. Taylor looked at her
with hope on her face.
“Mrs. Taylor…” Fia stayed quiet for a second before continuing, “Some things may seem easy on papers, but things
are actually quite complicated.”
“How complicated can it get? Back in our generation, once we marry someone, we’ll stay with them forever. As
long as they…”
“Stop it.” Fia stopped Mrs. Taylor, upset. “That’s how it was back in your days. You can’t push your own expectations
on me.”
“Madam…”
“Please don’t force me, Mrs. Taylor. I’m a patient and just lost my child!” Fia said quickly and severely. Her eyes
were cold.
Mrs. Taylor realized that she really was angry and didn’t dare to continue.
“Then, I’ll prepare dinner for you later.”
She needed to stay here for a few more days. Once she was feeling somewhat better, she could try and persuade
her again.
Once Mrs. Taylor had left, Conrad came back in..
When Fla saw him, she remembered what Mrs. Taylor told her.
Her expression changed as she carefully looked at him.
Conrad sat down at the end of the bed and looked back into her eyes.
“What is it?”
“Sapphire and Mrs. Taylor both believe that you gave up on Esme?”
Conrad gulped. “You don’t believe it?”
“How can you give her up just like that? Both of you have been together for so long.”

now… She’s not the same person that I liked.”
“How is she right now?”
“Insidious, pretentious, vicious.”
There was a shock in her eyes. He impressed her by being able to say how Esme was in such a calm
manner.
Her heart pounded as she couldn’t help but ask, “Do you still love her?”
Conrad was stunned. “I have no feelings for her anymore, so I suppose I don’t anymore.”
Fia looked away. She couldn’t handle what he was telling her.
She was worried that she would become greedy again. And that she would suffer from it.
“Fia, can you give me another chance?”
Fia lay down and showed him her back.
“You’re not me. You can’t feel the pain that I feel as your wife.”
“Alright. Let’s not talk about that.” Conrad tucked her in with the blanket. The room was quite cold from
the air conditioner, and he was worried that she might get a cold.
